If you are under 16, it is mandatory for a parent to stay with you at this event! I cannot stress this enough. You will not be allowed to play otherwise. You must also have a ride available to you at all times in case they event ends early.

Let's make this the Year of the Bey! The holidays will be over, so will break for those in school. Time to unwind...or wind up and LET IT RIP! Year of the Bey will kick off a whole new direction for CT Beyblade, hopefully with monthly events.

I'll also be running a 2nd, Limited format tournament at this event. Time to put this new format through it's paces. This event will run AFTER the Zero-G if there's time left over at the hall.

There will be no snacks for sale this time around. Please bring your own.

Also, don't forget to add yourself to the BeyMap! CT needs representation! Please don't put your full address. Just city/state.

Event is today and I coudln't be more excited.

Unfortunately, cannot bring my stadium- its being used for storage purposes right now, haha.

I'll be there around a little after 12:30, just for the sake of arriving early, haha.

I can't wait to see everyone there, good luck to all.
Alright! Tournament day!

Good luck to everyone.

Remember that registration ends at 1:30. Once battles start, you cannot enter the tournament, so make sure you're there by 1 to get in the brackets!
Good luck everyone! Smile
I don't have Zero G beys...can't enter first format. Unhappy

You don't need zero g. It's the type of stadium.
Yeah, you can use any Metal Fight Beyblades for Zero-G. (Fusion, Masters, Fury, Shogun Steel).

Even if you only were to bring your Limited ones, you could use them in Zero-G, if you chose. Tongue_out
Awesome-- thanks for the clarification. Smile See you there!!
Woo, it ended about a half an hour ago.

I got first in both formats, most importantly, it was a great deal of fun. Tongue_out

Good job to all who competed.

Zero-G was Nohzone (third), Akalajian (second), and me (first).

Not sure about second for Limited, but I know Akalajian placed third and I placed first.

Haha, I was going to PM all you guys for them. Leone19 already gave me his, haha.

May I asked how Thermal B D done? Was it getting KO'D? I'll have to look into that combo.

thermal Orion B: D??? Cool Smile


It's cool that you guys solo'd the tournament Grin
I believe Nohzone used a variation of Kraken S130 RF, not sure what the used for the Top Wheel, though. I believe Behemoth, but don't quote me on it. Tongue_out
Congrats Leone & Naijalak! Loving the list of placers this time around & I'm glad that akalajian was able to place Smile
A little disappointing that nearly all the placers just used one combo throughout the tournament, but hopefully that was due to a lack of good limited parts or something.

As for me, I wanted to try out that combination, not to mention, it was that, or using Scythe (only other wheel I could fit in my box), which my mold isn't the best.
Me soloing with Earth was pretty much because that's the only limited combo I have that's any good now that Gravity is banned.

As to why akalajian chose Thermal Orion BD, who knows! I think he just like the way it looked. He's got a ton of good stuff for Limited, and went with that.

In other news, results and fees have been sent in. Now we wait!

I believe Thermal did have some Stamina use back in the day, so it was a pretty decent choice, haha.

Again, thanks to Naijalak for hosting another great event!

Any pics or videos that anyone took?
GAH! I forgot to do our usual Winners pictures!
