The WBO is proud to announce that we will be partnering with ANIME NORTH 2015 for the eight consecutive year to host Team BeyBattle Revolution, the spiritual successor to Tag BeyBattle Revolution hosted over ten years ago at AN04 by Off the Chain! Team BeyBattle Revolution will make use of the WBO’s brand new Team Format; team up in groups of three and battle it out against Bladers from across North America in a frenzied competition to take home the Triple Crown Face and some fabulous prizes! Whose side will you choose?
What is Team Format?
First announced to great fanfare in 2014 and tested at the pilot event–BEY OR DIE–in Toronto this past September, Team Format is a new experimental format introduced by the WBO for Organized Play whereby Bladers join forces in teams of three as they battle against opposing teams individually in a series of BeyBattles.
Lead by their designated Captains, Team Format battles are comprised of what is known as a “Team BeyBattle”. Team BeyBattles consist of three separate best 3 out of 5 BeyBattles between each team member. In these BeyBattles, every round win counts! After all three BeyBattles have been completed, the winning team of that Team BeyBattle will be determined based on the final total round wins of all three BeyBattles combined! Here’s an example:

For more information about Team Format, please read the official announcement thread. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here!
Looking for team members?
Feel free to discuss that in this tournament thread, but once you have created a team, create a thread in the Team Forum to further discuss any internal team matters there!
Want to participate? Join a Qualifier!
Team BeyBattle Revolution will be open to the public, but if you live in North America, and aren't able to afford the trip up to Toronto? Don't worry! We've got you covered; win one of our qualifier tournaments and you'll win paid travel expenses up to Toronto!

Entry: You need an AN Pass!
A Blader Passport is not required for this tournament, as AN does not allow event organizers to charge entry fees for events within the convention. However, if you want to support the WBO so we can host even better tournaments with even better prizes in the future, and participate in the BeyPoints ranking System in future tournaments, then you will need one! So, if you wish to purchase one at the tournament, that is still possible.
To participate in the tournament, you currently have a few options to gain entrance: a) a weekend pass or b) a day pass for Saturday at AN (and Friday/Sunday Passes if you plan attend the other events on those days). Weekend Passes are currently sold out, but you can still purchase Single Day Tickets. We highly recommend that you purchase a ticket ASAP! Saturday Passes have sold out in past years as well, and there is no guarantee that they will be available at the convention itself.
PURCHASE SINGLE DAY TICKETS HERE
Please note that children (ages 6-13) are admitted for half price.

The Anime North weekend has become a yearly tradition so deeply rooted in the history of the WBO. I remember attending for the first time in 2008, with a mixture of both nervousness and excitement swirling around inside me; a nervousness and excitement not necessarily wholly related to Beyblade, but to the impending connections I would make with people I had known online for years.
Eight years later–eight Anime North’s later–memories of these experiences and the people I’ve met from around the world ceaselessly occupy a special place in my mind. BEYBLADE’S NOT DEAD, BEYBLADE WAR ROOM, BEYBLADE REVIVAL CUP, BEYBLADE CRUSADE, BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, BEYBLADE REVOLUTION, GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2 … Some things just never change. As I always say, our AN events every year are the ultimate embodiment of what the WBO is all about fundamentally: competitive play and interacting with others. You can experience facets of those things through the forums–which is what makes them so great–but competing face to face with someone else potentially from a foreign country, only to smile and laugh with them afterwards is another experience entirely. Team BeyBattle Revolution will bring a whole new dimension to this with the team dynamics being introduced, so it surely is going to be an event for the history books! Don’t miss it.

I've been really scatterbrained over the past week or two trying to get things ready for this weekend ... so I'm excited that AN starts tomorrow! I can't wait to see you all. 
Just a couple things left to take care of, including this:
Here are the pairings/locations for the BEYBLADE BATTLE STATIONS:
Locations:
1. International Plaza Hotel - Lobby
@[JesseObre] & Kei
2. Toronto Congress Center - Front Lawn
@[Mitsu] & @[Wombat]
3. Toronto Congress Center - Parking Lot Side Near Entrances
@[Dark_Mousy] & @[Leone7]
4. Sheraton Toronto Airport Hotel - Foyer, possibly just outside of our room
No one! We need more volunteers! Anyone else who is reading this by tomorrow morning let me know and I can see if we can get someone set up here.
Volunteers, please meet me in the lobby of the International Plaza hotel to pick up your flyers and posters before going to your location. I will be there at around 2:30PM or before and should be there until 4:30PM (at which point I'll be heading over to the Sheraton to set up for MFB BeyBattle Revolution). We'll be a little bit off to the left and back from the main entrance ... just look for the BB-10s haha. When you arrive you can just hang out with JesseObre and I until your partner arrives if he hasn't already.
Here is the information one more time on the battle stations in case anyone hasn't seen it:

BEYBLADE BATTLE STATIONS
Help us promote Team BeyBattle Revolution and the WBO at AN!
WHEN:
2:30PM-5:30PM, FRIDAY, MAY 22 2015
WHERE:
Sheraton Toronto Airport Hotel, International Plaza Hotel, Toronto Congress Center
WHY:
To help promote Team BeyBattle Revolution, our other events at AN, and the WBO!
HOW:
Volunteer Bladers will be paired up and scattered around the convention wielding their Beyblades, BB-10 Stadiums, Beyblade Battle Station posters, WBO Promo Cards, and flyers promoting the WBO events throughout the weekend. The goal is to attract and talk to on-lookers about our events, encourage them to attend, to join the WBO, or to simply try out Beyblade for themselves right then and there!
It will also be important to tell them to not worry if they do not have a Beyblade of their own for the events: we will have some new Beyblades available for $5 available for sale at MFB BeyBattle Revolution and Team BeyBattle Revolution that they can purchase if they would like. And for HMS BeyBattle Revolution, someone can let them borrow one.
"WHAT ... DO I GET?":
If you help out for at least one hour you'll have your choice of one of these wicked Stone Face Boosters after the convention!:
- Stone Face Booster AMETHYST [Image: vszk.png]
- Stone Face Booster SAPPHIRE [Image: 7kje.png]
- Stone Face Booster EMERALD [Image: 9wl8.png]
- Stone Face Booster RUBY [Image: 1g30.png]
- Stone Face Booster ONYX [Image: 4dtz.png]
Locations:
1. International Plaza Hotel - Lobby
2. Toronto Congress Center - Front Lawn
3. Toronto Congress Center - Parking Lot Side Near Entrances
4. Sheraton Toronto Airport Hotel - Foyer, possibly just outside of our room
Anybody who is going to be at Anime North on Friday, May 22nd ... we need your help! To help promote our events at Anime North this year I've decided to bring back an idea Bey Brad once employed years ago before BEYBLADE WAR ROOM: "BEYBLADE BATTLE STATIONS". As explained above, I am looking for volunteers to help run these battle stations throughout the convention in the hours leading up to our first tournament of the weekend, MFB BeyBattle Revolution.
There is not necessarily any limit on the amount of pairs I am looking for; we can always find slightly new locations if there's a lot of you who can help out. Once I've determined who the pairs are, we can work together to determine who will be stationed at each location, and figure out the best place to meet so that I can give you the poster, WBO Promo Cards, flyers, and BB-10 (if necessary) to use.
Please post here and let me know if you are willing to volunteer and help out with this!
If you don't have anyone specifically you would like to pair with, but want to help, post anyways and we will find someone. And if you're not available for the entire 2:30-5:30PM timespan, don't worry: even an hour would help!

Real excited for the tournament! Should be leaving by around 1:00 so I'll be able to be there by 2:30. Even now though, at 2:00 in the morning, I'm still debating as to whether I'll be wearing my cosplay today or not, lol.
Good luck to all and goodbye BeyPoints!
Oh hey- this is cool.

3:50 before.... You might as well realise that I am doing a count down
I'm sorry everyone and especially my team members, i won't be able to attend today due to my track and field yesterday
What happened was, i was in the 100m final, and i was about to win the race, and then my left leg just gave out
So i then had help to get into my moms car, and we went to the hospital. So the doctor said i have a soft tissue tear, and i can barely move my leg without feeling huge pain in my left thigh,
So since this happened, i won't be participate today sadly
So i am very sorry about this
