In a very limited set of circumstances, a very few earth combos can beat 1 specific Basalt combo. Lets not overstate the case here... We can all check out the thread here for more info on what people are testing in these regards today: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Potentia...ade-Combos

Yes, that would have been an (evidently failed) attempt at sarcastic humor. Smile

Here's another one.

BTW, did you notice that you currently hold a rank that is higher than Kei? He's #1, but you, drakio and Go Hell Kerbecs are tied at #0! Wink

Hello MD bladers!

With 1 week to go before the tournament, I want to encourage everyone to review the rules which can be found here: http://worldbeyblade.org/standardrules.pdf

It is every blader's responsibility to learn and know the rules before competing. The judges will be fair, but they will be fair while enforcing the rules.

A couple of things to pay attention to are the sections on early/late launching (rev-up launchers have trouble here), and changing beys between battles (when you switch opponents) but not between rounds (during a battle with the same opponent).

Questions about the rules should be researched first in the rules thread http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-WBO-Orga...cial-Rules, then any remaining questions posted in that thread. Please do not post questions about the rules here - I watch the rules thread, so if you want to hear from me (as well as Kai-V, Kei and the rest of the committee who make the rules) that is the place to post.

I'm looking forward to a great tournament, and can't wait to see you all there!
DAJ is comming with new beys!
DAJ Which beys did you get?

drakio: I think being excited about coming to the tournament qualifies as being "on topic". I'm excited too!
