I dont know

So I decided to rank a the current strength, strategy and/or feats of all bladers participating in the tag tournament during said tournament. I was going to rank them in pairs but I feel like in some certain cases, one blader did more for his pair than the other. I also decided to throw Wakiya into the mix, I know he isn’t participating but he’s the only other recurring character who isn’t participating so he might as well be included, besides his battles have taken place within the arc so it can be considered his current strength. I may make another one once the series ends or all the battles conclude.

Spoiler (Click to View)

1: Lane: Do I even need to explain this? His Flare and resonance are beyond anything exhibited in the history of burst. He has taken on and annihilated the strongest most experienced bladers in burst history throughout this tournament as well as Hyuga and Hikaru. Truth be told his record is extremely impressive and he doesn’t even really need Shu to succeed. Lane has even shown the capability to take on multiple bladers on level ground and still stomp them on his very own. Lane is arguably not only the best blader in this tournament but the best in burst as a whole.
2: Hikaru is more or less the same as Hyuga but he is smarter which I feel is a big factor for this particular duo. The reason for this is because he is a more rational thinker which is what leads him and his brother to victory- for example: at times Hyuga can’t help but attack on his own but Hikaru is the one who primarily encourages Hyuga to work with him which has rocketed their performance in the tournament as it makes them organized and powerful. Like Hyuga he has flare and it seems to have risen to a level closer to Hyuga’s since the tournament started. He also used a limit break and special move combination when fighting Silas which would definitely give him some individual credit but he still needed Hyuga’s help and only managed to draw with Silas so it’s only somewhat impressive.
3: Hyuga: Hyuga is an absolute beast of an opponent his utilization of flare instantly gives him a boost over the competition. His raw power and resonance are a bit better than Hikaru’s but I feel like he lacks in intelligence which sets him below Hikaru but doesn’t change the fact that he is tough. He and Hikaru may have had the easiest loss to Lane and Shu but everyone loses to those two anyways so the way I see it, it’s not that big of a deal. After they got annihilated by Valt and Rantaro they fortunately seemed to perform far better. They crushed Aiga and Ranjiro with ease and their battle with Lui and Drum ended with the two getting their beys burst in the face of Hyuga and Hikaru. Even Wakiya couldn’t stand up against the move and ended up losing. Their flare combined with their creative usage of limit break power has made them deadly but their usage of the ultimate tag move “twin strike” is what truly sets them apart from the rest. 
4: Shu: I would put Shu and Valt on equal footing but his record with Lane has influenced this decision alongside his immense intelligence. Although Shu hasn’t done much, his strategies and intellectual decisions have proven to be the greatest of all in this tournament even if they aren’t absolutely necessary, such as his world slash and limit break slam combination with Lane or his limit break activation (which evidently wasn’t necessary but still made things easier), he was additionally the first blader to effectively utilize the storm plate and he seems to have mastered it. He also eliminated Free but seeing as Free has been getting tossed throughout this tournament, it doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.
5: Valt: Now Valt is in interesting case here. He’s is a fair bit higher than Rantaro simply because he always puts up an intense fight. Even when Rantaro was getting knocked around Valt was there to take on the challenge and Lui and Drum have to really drop in some intense effort to beat him and even the Hyper Tornado/Infinite Buster combination was only enough to knock him out. He also seems to have come up with synchro lightning so there’s that. His record in the tournament is also something I factor in which is why I put him above Lui and Wakiya, even though they (Lui and Drum) win their next match, Valt and Rantaro have still taken on Hyuga and Hikaru and won which gives him an edge over Lui and Drum.
6: Lui: Like Drum, Lui has been absolutely dominating his opponents whether he wins or loses and he really has to be drawn out to be defeated. His raw power has been unrivalled and many beys such as Ragnaruk, Spriggan and Valkyrie have been sent flying back when they tried head on contact at the start of the battle. Apart from this, he seems to be the mastermind and brains behind his duo and he is responsible for all the teams powerful strategies and techniques which has proven him as a formidable opponent. Based on the next episode, he is also going to either create, or mutually invent the powerful friendship boosted Raging Tempest with Drum.
7:  Wakiya: Now some people may not like me putting him this high or rather this low but I think it’s perfect. We have to understand that although Wakiya was able to continuously dominate multiple legends as well as Hyuga and Hikaru with his overwhelming defensive capabilities and counter techniques this was also his introduction episode hence, why I am not taking these particular feats with as much regard which is why he is as low as he is (plus one of his opponents was Aiga who is absolutely lacking). Now the one thing that really convinced me that this guy was the real deal was that, when he did lose, he lost by a simple over finish to TWIN STRIKE which is pretty much an insta kill against most tags in this tournament. Wakiya has come a long way and we can see that.
8: Drum: Now Drum is a very interesting one. He and Lui may have one of the lower ended records but they are going to win their next battle anyways so I’ll count it based on what we know. Throughout the tournament Drum has always put up an intense fight regardless of if he won the battle or not and his performance was insane. He was additionally able to access a powerful rainbow aura which should count for something.
9: Ranjiro: Okay so Ranjiro is where the bladers start to get a bit better. He actually puts a good amount of efforts into his battles and was responsible for beating Silas who himself kept going with Ranjiro till the end. He was responsible for their first win and shared equal responsibility with Aiga during their second. The Hyper Tornado Achilles strategy seemed to be his own which would also give him so more credibility. Lastly, in the fight with Lane he seemed to do more then Aiga and even saved him from limit break the end which is nice. He’s above Rantaro because he can actually take a loss while putting up a good fight. Yes, Lui eliminated him but he was out of Stamina and got forcibly flung into Longinus in a completely unfair situation due to hyper tornado holding out to long so I won’t hold it against him.
10: Rantaro: Was a tough decision between Rantaro and Aiga but since Rantaro played a major part in both of his wins, I’ll put him above Aiga. Rantaro may have one of the better records in this tournament, I’ll give him that. But one thing we have to take into consideration is the fact that when he loses, he loses badly. Aiga and Ranjiro made him look like a joke and Lui and Drum were dominating him throughout that one sided battle. Still, the record still stands and he has fought nicely even managing to beat Hikaru who is one of the best bladers in this tournament. Valt is a fair bit higher then Rantaro seeing as he actually puts up better fights.$
11: Aiga: I think this one is fairly simple. Aiga hasn’t really done much apart from his performance in the latest episode. It doesn’t seem like he puts up as much of a fight as Ranjiro. His performance in the latest episode is what saved him from being at the dead bottom of this list since him and Ranjiro completely destroyed Valt and Rantaro when they used their double attack. He tied with Drum in a battle of double moves but he missed the first attack which caused his team to lose the battle (although I don’t blame Aiga for this, it’s more like competence of Drum and Aiga), so I think that episode doesn’t effect this.
12: Silas: This is a very similar case to Free, the reason why he is higher is because he took on Lucifer the End on his own and only lost by a spin finish AFTER Shu (a blader who is obviously weaker than Lane) eliminated him Free first, which is pretty crazy. He also knocked both Fafnir and Longinus out so I will give him a slight edge for that one. He also managed to Draw with Hikaru even after getting hit by a limit break + special move combination and 2v1 while Free was simply knocked out by Hyuga which is pretty crazy in his part. I feel like the latest episode really solidifies his placement over Free.
13: Free: Ok so you might think I’m being biased since most people know that I’m not a Free fan but just hear me out. Him and Silas have one of the worst records in the tournament. Their battles are always short and concise and they’re only notable battle was the one they had with Lui and Drum where I would say they did equal work, maybe Silas a slight bit more since he knocked both beys out. In the lastest episode Hyuga easily eliminated Free simply by using limit break burn which just makes things even worse for him especially since the battle was mostly one sided with the bros constant keeping Free and Silas on their backs. Generally Free has been getting knocked out quite fast and early or too easily throughout his battles in the tournament and it just makes him look like a glass cannon.

Not bad eh?

This is pretty accurate to what has been shown, and considering this isn't neccesarily a 1v1 ranking, but mainly based on the tournament, it makes sense. Wakiya is still undecided imo because he hasn't participated in anything other than his commercial introduction.

Brave Valkyrie is my favorite bey, and Valt is my favorite character even if he's a bit overrated.

Thoughts?

I feel like you are doing Aiga a little bit dirty. All the strategies Aiga and Ranjiro have done always have both of them working together. In the Hyuga’s and Hikaru vs Aiga and Ranjiro worked equally together. Everywhere Aiga and Ranjiro work together. Without Aiga, Ranjiro might’ve never been able to be Valt, and without Aiga Hyuga and Hikaru wouldn’t have to use limit break twin strike.

So I decided to rank a the current strength, strategy and/or feats of all bladers participating in the tag tournament during said tournament. I was going to rank them in pairs but I feel like in some certain cases, one blader did more for his pair than the other.

The Hyper Tornado Achilles strategy seemed to be his own which would also give him so more credibility. Lastly, in the fight with Lane he seemed to do more then Aiga and even saved him from limit break the end which is nice. He’s above Rantaro because he can actually take a loss while putting up a good fight.
10: Rantaro: Was a tough decision between Rantaro and Aiga but since Rantaro played a major part in both of his wins, I’ll put him above Aiga. Rantaro may have one of the better records in this tournament, I’ll give him that. But one thing we have to take into consideration is the fact that when he loses, he loses badly. Aiga and Ranjiro made him look like a joke and Lui and Drum were dominating him throughout that one sided battle. Still, the record still stands and he has fought nicely even managing to beat Hikaru who is one of the best bladers in this tournament. Valt is a fair bit higher then Rantaro seeing as he actually puts up better fights.$
11: Aiga: I think this one is fairly simple. Aiga hasn’t really done much apart from his performance in the latest episode. It doesn’t seem like he puts up as much of a fight as Ranjiro. His performance in the latest episode is what saved him from being at the dead bottom of this list since him and Ranjiro completely destroyed Valt and Rantaro when they used their double attack.
12: Silas: This is a very similar case to Free, the reason why he is higher is because he took on Lucifer the End on his own and only lost by a spin finish AFTER Shu (a blader who is obviously weaker than Lane) eliminated him Free first, which is pretty crazy. He also knocked both Fafnir and Longinus out so I will give him a slight edge for that one.
13: Free: Ok so you might think I’m being biased since most people know that I’m not a Free fan but just hear me out. Him and Silas have one of the worst records in the tournament. Their battles are always short and concise and they’re only notable battle was the one they had with Lui and Drum where I would say they did equal work, maybe Silas a slight bit more since he knocked both beys out. Generally Free has been getting knocked out quite fast and early throughout his battles in the tournament and it just makes him look like a glass cannon.

Thoughts?

I completely agree with this ranking and logical reason on the ranking their not much their not much to say really

[/spoiler] So I decided to rank a the current strength, strategy and/or feats of all bladers participating in the tag tournament during said tournament. I was going to rank them in pairs but I feel like in some certain cases, one blader did more for his pair than the other. I also decided to throw Wakiya into the mix, I know he isn’t participating but he’s the only other recurring character who isn’t participating so he might as well be included, besides his battles have taken place within the arc so it can be considered his current strength. I may make another one once the series ends or all the battles conclude.

Spoiler (Click to View)

1: Lane: Do I even need to explain this? His Flare and resonance are beyond anything exhibited in the history of burst. He has taken on and annihilated the strongest most experienced bladers in burst history throughout this tournament as well as Hyuga and Hikaru and crushed them. Truth be told his record is extremely impressive and he doesn’t even really need Shu to succeed. Lane has even shown the capability to take on multiple bladers on level grounds and still stomp them on his very own. Lane is arguably not only the best blader in this tournament but the best in burst as a whole.
2: Hikaru is more or less the same as Hyuga but he is smarter which I feel is a big factor for this particular duo. The reason for this is because he is a more rational thinker which is what leads him and his brother to victory- for example: at times Hyuga can’t help but attack on his own but Hikaru is the one who primarily encourages Hyuga to work with him which has rocketed their performance in the tournament as it makes them organized and powerful. Like Hyuga he has flare and it seems to have risen to a level closer to Hyuga’s since the tournament started.
3: Hyuga: Hyuga is an absolute beast of an opponent his utilization of flare instantly gives him a boost over the conversation. His raw power and resonance are bit better than Hyuga’s but I feel like he lacks in intelligence which sets him below Hikaru but didn’t change the fact that he is tough. He and Hikaru may have had the easiest loss to Lane and Shu but everyone loses to those two anyways so the way I see it, it’s not that big of a deal. After they got annihilated by Valt and Rantaro they fortunately seemed to perform far better. They crushed Aiga and Ranjiro with ease and their battle with Lui and Drum both ended up getting their beys burst in the face of Hyuga and Hikaru. Even Wakiya couldn’t stand up against the move and ended up losing. Their flare combined with their creative usage of limit break power power have made them deadly but their usage of the ultimate tag move “twin strike” is what truly sets them apart from the rest.
4: Shu: I would put Shu and Valt on equal footing but his record with Lane has influenced this decision alongside his immense intelligence. Although Shu hasn’t done much, his strategies and intellectual decisions have proven to be the greatest of all  in this tournament even if they aren’t absolutely necessary, such as his world slash and limit break slam combination with Lane or his limit break activation (which evidently wasn’t necessary but still made things easier), he was additionally the first blader the effectively utilize the storm plate and seems to have mastered it. He also eliminated Free but seeing as Free has been getting tossed throughout this tournament, it doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.
5: Valt: Now Valt is in interesting case here. He’s is a fair bit higher than Rantaro simply because he always puts up an intense fight. Even when Rantaro when getting knocked around Valt was there to take on the challenge Lui and Drum have to really drop in some intense effort to beat him and even the Hyper Tornado/Infinite Buster combination was only enough to knock him out. He also seems to have come up with synchro lightning so there’s that. His record in the tournament is also something I factor in which is why I put him above Lui and Wakiya. Even though they will win their next match, Valt and Rantaro have still taken on Hyuga and Hikaru and won which gives them an edge over Lui and Drum.
6: Lui: Like Drum, Lui has been absolutely dominating his opponents whether he wins or loses and he really has to be drawn out to be defeated. His raw power has been unrivalled and Many beys such as Ragnaruk, Spriggan and Valkyrie have been sent flying back when they tried head on contact at the start of the battle. Apart from this, he seems to be the mastermind and brains behind his duo and he is responsible for all the teams powerful strategies and techniques which has proven him as a formidable opponent. Based on the next episode, he is also the going to either create, or mutually invent the powerful friendship boosted Raging Tempest with Drum.
7:  Wakiya: Now some people may not like me putting him this high or rather this low but I think it’s perfect. We have to understand that although Wakiya was able to continuously dominate multiple legends as well as Hyuga and Hikaru with his overwhelming defensive capabilities and counter techniques but this was also his introduction episode hence, why I am not taking these particular feats with as much regard which is why he is as low as he is (plus one of his opponents was Aiga who is absolutely lacking). Now the one thing that really convinced me that this guy was the real deal was that, when he did lose, he lost by a simple over finish to TWIN STRIKE which is pretty much an insta kill against most tags in this tournament. Wakiya has come a long way and we can see that.
8: Drum: Now Drum is a very interesting one. He and Lui may have one of the lower ended records but they are going to win their next battle anyways so I’ll count it based on what we know. Throughout the tournament Drum has always put up an intense fight regardless of if he won the battle or not and his performance was insane. He was additionally able to access a powerful rainbow aura which should count for something.
9: Ranjiro: Okay so Ranjiro is where the bladers start to get a bit better. He actually puts a good amount of efforts into his battles and was responsible for beating Silas who himself kept going with Ranjiro till the end. He was responsible for their first win and shared equal responsibility with Aiga during their second. The Hyper Tornado Achilles strategy seemed to be his own which would also give him so more credibility. Lastly, in the fight with Lane he seemed to do more then Aiga and even saved him from limit break the end which is nice. He’s above Rantaro because he can actually take a loss while putting up a good fight.
10: Rantaro: Was a tough decision between Rantaro and Aiga but since Rantaro played a major part in both of his wins, I’ll put him above Aiga. Rantaro may have one of the better records in this tournament, I’ll give him that. But one thing we have to take into consideration is the fact that when he loses, he loses badly. Aiga and Ranjiro made him look like a joke and Lui and Drum were dominating him throughout that one sided battle. Still, the record still stands and he has fought nicely even managing to beat Hikaru who is one of the best bladers in this tournament. Valt is a fair bit higher then Rantaro seeing as he actually puts up better fights.$
11: Aiga: I think this one is fairly simple. Aiga hasn’t really done much apart from his performance in the latest episode. It doesn’t seem like he puts up as much of a fight as Ranjiro. His performance in the latest episode is what saved him from being at the dead bottom of this list since him and Ranjiro completely destroyed Valt and Rantaro when they used their double attack.
12: Silas: This is a very similar case to Free, the reason why he is higher is because he took on Lucifer the End on his own and only lost by a spin finish AFTER Shu (a blader who is obviously weaker than Lane) eliminated him Free first, which is pretty crazy. He also knocked both Fafnir and Longinus out so I will give him a slight edge for that one.
13: Free: Ok so you might think I’m being biased since most people know that I’m not a Free fan but just hear me out. Him and Silas have one of the worst records in the tournament. Their battles are always short and concise and they’re only notable battle was the one they had with Lui and Drum where I would say they did equal work, maybe Silas a slight bit more since he knocked both beys out. Generally Free has been getting knocked out quite fast and early throughout his battles in the tournament and it just makes him look like a glass cannon.

[spoiler]
I feel like you are doing Aiga a little bit dirty. All the strategies Aiga and Ranjiro have done always have both of them working together. In the Hyuga’s and Hikaru vs Aiga and Ranjiro worked equally together. Everywhere Aiga and Ranjiro work together. Without Aiga, Ranjiro might’ve never been able to be Valt, and without Aiga Hyuga and Hikaru wouldn’t have to use limit break twin strike.

I suppose I may be but everyone in this tournament is more or less on equal grounds in terms of potential, so with that being said Ranjiro has always at least put up a better fight whilst Aiga, while tough is kind of just bland in terms of performance. Also, while they did do equal work in the latest episode the strategy was Ranjiro’s strategy which is why I gave him more credit. All the winning strategies were the ones Ranjiro came up with.

I was going to rank them in pairs but I feel like in some certain cases, one blader did more for his pair than the other.

Any thoughts?

Everything seems fine except I wouldn't count lui with raging upper beating valkyrie was a feat since valkyrie at that time was destabilize by Dragon.

In the next couples of weeks if rantaro manages to put up a great fight against or heck even win against shu and lean I would put him above drum or Ranjiro.

Yeah you have a point, it’s really not much of a feat. As for Rantaro, yeah I may move him up if his performance during the fight with Lean and Shu is good.

Lol I just realized Shu has the least amount of losses from all the legend bladers holding with 7 losses and possibly 8 (Cause of the bros beating him and lane)

Apart from this, he seems to be the mastermind and brains behind his duo and he is responsible for all the teams powerful strategies and techniques which has proven him as a formidable opponent. Based on the next episode, he is also going to either create, or mutually invent the powerful friendship boosted Raging Tempest with Drum.
7:  Wakiya: Now some people may not like me putting him this high or rather this low but I think it’s perfect. We have to understand that although Wakiya was able to continuously dominate multiple legends as well as Hyuga and Hikaru with his overwhelming defensive capabilities and counter techniques this was also his introduction episode hence, why I am not taking these particular feats with as much regard which is why he is as low as he is (plus one of his opponents was Aiga who is absolutely lacking). Now the one thing that really convinced me that this guy was the real deal was that, when he did lose, he lost by a simple over finish to TWIN STRIKE which is pretty much an insta kill against most tags in this tournament. Wakiya has come a long way and we can see that.
8: Drum: Now Drum is a very interesting one. He and Lui may have one of the lower ended records but they are going to win their next battle anyways so I’ll count it based on what we know. Throughout the tournament Drum has always put up an intense fight regardless of if he won the battle or not and his performance was insane. He was additionally able to access a powerful rainbow aura which should count for something.
9: Ranjiro: Okay so Ranjiro is where the bladers start to get a bit better. He actually puts a good amount of efforts into his battles and was responsible for beating Silas who himself kept going with Ranjiro till the end. He was responsible for their first win and shared equal responsibility with Aiga during their second. The Hyper Tornado Achilles strategy seemed to be his own which would also give him so more credibility. Lastly, in the fight with Lane he seemed to do more then Aiga and even saved him from limit break the end which is nice. He’s above Rantaro because he can actually take a loss while putting up a good fight.
10: Rantaro: Was a tough decision between Rantaro and Aiga but since Rantaro played a major part in both of his wins, I’ll put him above Aiga. Rantaro may have one of the better records in this tournament, I’ll give him that. But one thing we have to take into consideration is the fact that when he loses, he loses badly. Aiga and Ranjiro made him look like a joke and Lui and Drum were dominating him throughout that one sided battle. Still, the record still stands and he has fought nicely even managing to beat Hikaru who is one of the best bladers in this tournament. Valt is a fair bit higher then Rantaro seeing as he actually puts up better fights.$
11: Aiga: I think this one is fairly simple. Aiga hasn’t really done much apart from his performance in the latest episode. It doesn’t seem like he puts up as much of a fight as Ranjiro. His performance in the latest episode is what saved him from being at the dead bottom of this list since him and Ranjiro completely destroyed Valt and Rantaro when they used their double attack.
12: Silas: This is a very similar case to Free, the reason why he is higher is because he took on Lucifer the End on his own and only lost by a spin finish AFTER Shu (a blader who is obviously weaker than Lane) eliminated him Free first, which is pretty crazy. He also knocked both Fafnir and Longinus out so I will give him a slight edge for that one.
13: Free: Ok so you might think I’m being biased since most people know that I’m not a Free fan but just hear me out. Him and Silas have one of the worst records in the tournament. Their battles are always short and concise and they’re only notable battle was the one they had with Lui and Drum where I would say they did equal work, maybe Silas a slight bit more since he knocked both beys out. Generally Free has been getting knocked out quite fast and early throughout his battles in the tournament and it just makes him look like a glass cannon.

Thoughts?

I would only give a definite ranking after the season ends. I do hope that they do make free seem stronger to be honest; they have managed to treat him worse than CHoz. Completely ignoring plot lines that they developed from the beggining.

Lol I just realized Shu has the least amount of losses from all the legend bladers holding with 7 losses and possibly 8 (Cause of the bros beating him and lane)

I mean shu did lose 11 straight round against lane haha

So I decided to rank a the current strength, strategy and/or feats of all bladers participating in the tag tournament during said tournament. I was going to rank them in pairs but I feel like in some certain cases, one blader did more for his pair than the other. I also decided to throw Wakiya into the mix, I know he isn’t participating but he’s the only other recurring character who isn’t participating so he might as well be included, besides his battles have taken place within the arc so it can be considered his current strength. I may make another one once the series ends or all the battles conclude.

Spoiler (Click to View)

1: Lane: Do I even need to explain this? His Flare and resonance are beyond anything exhibited in the history of burst. He has taken on and annihilated the strongest most experienced bladers in burst history throughout this tournament as well as Hyuga and Hikaru and crushed them. Truth be told his record is extremely impressive and he doesn’t even really need Shu to succeed. Lane has even shown the capability to take on multiple bladers on level ground and still stomp them on his very own. Lane is arguably not only the best blader in this tournament but the best in burst as a whole.
2: Hikaru is more or less the same as Hyuga but he is smarter which I feel is a big factor for this particular duo. The reason for this is because he is a more rational thinker which is what leads him and his brother to victory- for example: at times Hyuga can’t help but attack on his own but Hikaru is the one who primarily encourages Hyuga to work with him which has rocketed their performance in the tournament as it makes them organized and powerful. Like Hyuga he has flare and it seems to have risen to a level closer to Hyuga’s since the tournament started.
3: Hyuga: Hyuga is an absolute beast of an opponent his utilization of flare instantly gives him a boost over the competition. His raw power and resonance are a bit better than Hikaru’s but I feel like he lacks in intelligence which sets him below Hikaru but doesn’t change the fact that he is tough. He and Hikaru may have had the easiest loss to Lane and Shu but everyone loses to those two anyways so the way I see it, it’s not that big of a deal. After they got annihilated by Valt and Rantaro they fortunately seemed to perform far better. They crushed Aiga and Ranjiro with ease and their battle with Lui and Drum ended with the two getting their beys burst in the face of Hyuga and Hikaru. Even Wakiya couldn’t stand up against the move and ended up losing. Their flare combined with their creative usage of limit break power has made them deadly but their usage of the ultimate tag move “twin strike” is what truly sets them apart from the rest.
4: Shu: I would put Shu and Valt on equal footing but his record with Lane has influenced this decision alongside his immense intelligence. Although Shu hasn’t done much, his strategies and intellectual decisions have proven to be the greatest of all in this tournament even if they aren’t absolutely necessary, such as his world slash and limit break slam combination with Lane or his limit break activation (which evidently wasn’t necessary but still made things easier), he was additionally the first blader to effectively utilize the storm plate and he seems to have mastered it. He also eliminated Free but seeing as Free has been getting tossed throughout this tournament, it doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.
5: Valt: Now Valt is in interesting case here. He’s is a fair bit higher than Rantaro simply because he always puts up an intense fight. Even when Rantaro was getting knocked around Valt was there to take on the challenge and Lui and Drum have to really drop in some intense effort to beat him and even the Hyper Tornado/Infinite Buster combination was only enough to knock him out. He also seems to have come up with synchro lightning so there’s that. His record in the tournament is also something I factor in which is why I put him above Lui and Wakiya. Even though they will win their next match, Valt and Rantaro have still taken on Hyuga and Hikaru and won which gives them an edge over Lui and Drum.
6: Lui: Like Drum, Lui has been absolutely dominating his opponents whether he wins or loses and he really has to be drawn out to be defeated. His raw power has been unrivalled and many beys such as Ragnaruk, Spriggan and Valkyrie have been sent flying back when they tried head on contact at the start of the battle. Apart from this, he seems to be the mastermind and brains behind his duo and he is responsible for all the teams powerful strategies and techniques which has proven him as a formidable opponent. Based on the next episode, he is also going to either create, or mutually invent the powerful friendship boosted Raging Tempest with Drum.

This is just a progress ranking of sorts, pay no mind to the general outcome. Also, yeah atm Free’s not doing so hot but there’s only one battle remaining for him and Silas so I don’t know what they could do.

Not bad eh?

Ranks of the Tag Teams in terms of teamwork imo:
1. Lui and Drum: There really needs no explanation for this. These guys are basically the best there is in burst maybe even one of the best in beyblade overall. These guys are basically the Tyson and Daichi of burst!
2. Aiga and Ranjiro: Not favoring but they kinda have been working together since Turbo.
3. Valt and Rantaro: Old Buddies since season 1 and these guys just amaze me with their teamwork especially that Synchro Lightning.
4. Hikaru and Hyuga: These bros got that flare need say more that Twin Strike is impressive. Sure they got their problems but in the end they are brothers that care for each other and work together.
5. Free and Sisco: Eh I guess they kinda work together like for example in their tag battle against Lui and Drum both of them got each others back.
6. Shu and Lane: lol these guys cant even work together except for that one time against the Dragon Duo of Lui and Drum. But Shu is just doing nothing as of now and Lane really is the one carrying both of them.

Let’s face it Lui and Drum are father and child and Lane and Shu are teenager and Father.

Completely agree with this ranking.

Im gonna say this but I feel like Meteo L-Drago might be the strongest bey in Metal Baku/Masters. Not cause he went undefeated or anything like that but I mean he took down Twisted Tempo pretty much in the manga. And I bet it could beat Hades Kerbecs and Sol Blaze. Disagree with me all you want but this is just my personal thought

Tempo was more powerful than Kerbecs so I would say he is definitely more powerful than Kerbecs. Besides, if Gingka could beat Sol Blaze then a blader (who was at the time) a good chunk better than him should surely be able to do the same.

Who is your least favorite MFB character?

Mine is probably that kid on Team Garcias (The Brazilian Team) that goes "Amazing Huh, Amazing Huh?" The damn kid makes me wanna pull my hair out. In fact, i really didn't even like anyone on team garcias for similar reasons.


But ranting aside who is your least favorite MFB character.

PFP: Baby picture of me and one of my irl friends / ANY PRONOUNS

The Garcias, huh? They're my least favorite MFB characters too, followed by Reiji.

My least favourite MFB character is the exact same as your choice, Enzo Garcia. I get that his team are evil and villains are supposed to be hated, but Enzo is just that special kind of irritating and awful. I hate his smugness, his creepy attitude and his "Amazing, huh?!" is really constant and annoying that I'd rather listen to Gingka rant about blader's spirit or Drum squealing "Gold Turbo!" for the millionth time.

Whilst he and the rest of Team Garcia do have a sympathetic backstory, they unfortunately strip any kind of sympathy they've had when they actively steal from others as poor as them and are just deeply unpleasant people who probably wouldn't have shed a tear, if someone else suffered the same situation as they did.

He was a little bit more tolerable in Zero-G/Shogun Steel, but not by much. It's only because his brief introduction (despite still using that stupid catchphrase again) was sort of amusing, and because he and his team tend to get their comeuppance more often at the hands of Kira and Doji.

Eh, I will think of something to put here...

Agreed. Meteo l drago/ ryuga were the strongest in metal masters but not in metal fury (you guys all know why.)

My least favorite characters in MFB are these characters tied: Garcias, Rago, Reji, and Yu

EDIT: the One who tops over all of them is the stupid DOJI!
