This format suggestion is not meant to be proposed as a ranked format. Please have that in mind. This format suggestion is also meant to be suggested as a First Stage format only.

The "Randomizer" Format is meant to test a blader's skill and knowledge with parts, as well as performance. Players will not use their own beys but ones provided by the host or anyone who may want to help with supplying parts.
The Rules are as follows. Each blader will receive 3 unique parts for each part of a beyblade. (ex. 3 layer bases, 3 chips, 3 layer weights, 3 discs, 3 drivers). The bladers will then have their backs facing each other and have a time limit to create a combo to use against their opponent. Those two combos will battle following current WBO match rules.
I do personally think this has two positives. Bladers who do not own parts good enough to compete with heavy competitiveness will have a more fair fight against their fellow competitive bladers. This format can also possibly deter unhealthy metas by providing balanced options for bladers.

Some Notes
-Whether bladers should or should not have their parts concealed from an opponent.
-Parts amount can be increased to fit 3on3/P3C1/5G.
-All parts that will be provided at the tournament should be listed in the tournament description.
-Parts can be pre-determined before the tournament, or bladers can pick from a concealed package (whether that be a small box or a small bag) with parts that allow a blader to create a competitively viable combo.
-What parts should be supplied to make the format fair. Answer to this would be supplying parts on a similar "viability level". Defining this can get tedious.
-And of course, all parts should be returned to their rightful owners. A way to mark parts will be necessary.
I'd like to hear thoughts on this whether it be compliments or criticism. I also have no clue if it's been suggested before. So sorry if that's the case 😅.
