Cosplay

Feel free to dress up as your favorite anime character, Beyblade or not, just keep it family friendly 😎. 


AFTER TOURNAMENT FREE PLAY

Pokémon & YuGiOh

With most to all Beyblade tournaments we will have an area for free play during the event. However, free play will be limited so participants can be attentive and hear when their names are called to compete. This will help the event flow better so we can overall enjoy our time. A practice area will definitely be available.

Since we will be playing inside, after the tournament is over, participants are welcome to stay a little longer and enjoy free play with either Beyblade, Pokemon or YuGiOh. I am a big nerd and enjoy the TCG life also. There are many coming who still are a part of the YuGiOh competitive scene, so if you have your deck ready please feel free to bring it 😎.

I’m not entirely sure just yet. It is a possibility though.
Hello Bladers!!!

Thank you all for signing up for The Circuit Dark Continent. I am sending out this email to let you all know that the location for Dark Continent has changed. It will be held indoors at the Raleigh Convention Center in room 305. It is about 4 minutes from the original location. We have updated the details and location in the tournaments description. (The location for Michael Nightwing's Blader's Kingdom will remain the same, at Pullen Park Shelter 4).

We will also update a few venues, restaurants and hotels for those of you traveling from out of time. I should have them all updated by the end of the weekend.

I look forward to playing with you all in a few months 😎. Once again feel free to dress up as your favorite anime character/cosplay just make sure it is family friendly. Also, if you know you will not be able to attend the event please unregister to make room for others who are interested. No hard feelings on that part.

Thank you all once again and feel free to send me any questions or concerns you may have. Take care 😎.
I have fully updated the tournament details in the description. Please review everything for some local "things to do" suggestions and hotels. There will also be free play available for Pokemon &/or YuGiOh if you're about that life 😎. Looking forward to playing with you all. Feel free to DM me with any questions or concerns you may have.

You surely can!

Certainly 😎. This event is capped out but some players may not show the day off. So there is always a chance. But if it is full you will still be able to come out. Worst case scenario too many people show and everyone may not be able to enter but I doubt that will happen.

Also for Sunday you are definitely welcome to come. We won’t have a cap for that event. All good who come can play, as long as we can manage it 😎

Hello everyone,

Sending this out to check for confirmation on everyone who is attending. Please message me back to confirm you attendance. I expect to have a large amount of participants show up however, we all know sometimes players drop out last minute. That is fine, life happens, but if you know you will not be able to make this event or if you have a very slim chance of making it please let me know or deregister. I would love to have as many people possible to enjoy some beyblade battles so if you won't be able to make it please allow room for others who are trying and willing to attend.

On another note, B-200 Xiphoid Xcalibur is set to release July 16th. If you Pre-Ordered it with our store, Four-Gaming, please email or DM me your order number so I can bring it to the event.

I have updated the itinerary, please give it a look over and arrive on time 😎

Keep blading hard everyone and have fun. Hope to see you soon.

After seeing the amount of players in the top 25 that are going to this event I am starting to think this may have not been my best idea for a first tournament.

Not true. My first event I went 4-1 and of course that was with a lot of top 25 players in it. Just stay confident in yourself and your combos.

Bro I live in md my guy and every tournament there's all a good bunch of the top 25 what I did is study the beys they use and how they used them that's how you beat them they always use the same combos I recommend you watch balance tune videos they'll help you out
yeay spin tops, but with youtubers, and proffesionals, this will be fun very unfun

If you look next to what beyblade format this is it says ranked right next to it which means we'll be using standard TT stadiums. FG has hosted tournaments before where they use DB stadiums but those were unranked
