BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2
SATURDAY, MAY 26, 2012
Sheraton Toronto Airport Hotel - Northern Spy Room
hosted by AN GAMING @ Anime North 2012
STANDARD (MFB/BMF) FORMAT


9 AM - Free Battle & Set Up
11 AM - Registration for BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2
12:30 PM - BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2

THE CRUSADE CONTINUES! For the fifth year in a row, the WBO is proud to announce that, in association with AN GAMING division of ANIME NORTH 2012, we will be hosting BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2! Last year BEYBLADE CRUSADE ended up becoming one of the largest Beyblade tournaments ever hosted in Canada; Bladers from across Ontario–and even from as far away as New York–made the journey to Toronto, and the competition was fierce. Surely, it will be even larger, and even fiercer this year!

No Beyblade? No problem! We're going to try to obtain Beyblades to bring with us so you'll be able to draft the parts to form a full Beyblade (for approx. $10), then you can play and trade with other Bladers before the tournament to hone your skills!

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 have a few options to gain entrance: a) a weekend pass, which have no been sold out, b) a day pass for Saturday at AN (if you wish to participate in all of the events and programming that AN has to offer), or c) the $5 Beyblade Pass.

The $5 Beyblade Pass will only grant you entry into BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, and can be purchased during registration for the tournament. This is the best option for Bladers who do not wish to experience the rest of what AN has to offer.

Note: Just to clarify, the $5 Beyblade Pass is only for Saturday's event, BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, not BEYBLADE CRUSADE: Roll Call 2 on Friday night. If you wish to attend this event you will have to purchase a Friday Day Pass if you have already not purchased a Weekend Pass.


Like last year, in an effort to build excitement and anticipation for the main event at ANIME NORTH, we will be hosting three "BEYBLADE CRUSADE RECRUITMENT SESSIONS" between the end of this month, and the week before BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2:

[Image: recruitmentsessions2012.png]

BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 4 - March 24, 2012
  • Top two finishers gain the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, should they attend.
  • Top two finishers from Recruitment Session: 4: theunderdog & JesseObre

BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 5 - April 28, 2012
  • Top two finishers gain the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, should they attend.
  • Top two finishers from Recruitment Session: 5: neilanpolbeley & 1234beyblade

BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 6 - May 13, 2012
  • First place finisher gains the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, should they attend.
  • First place finisher from Recruitment Session: 6: Kei

Hopefully the possibility of gaining this slight advantage in BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2 will be enticing for you all! Along with the BeyPoints, Faces, and prizes, of course. The order in which the top finishers choose who they face in that first round will be according to which tournament they placed in, but reversed (ex. If you come in first place at Recruitment Session 4, then you will have the last choice of who you want to face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2. This way, even if someone else picks you, you can still choose not to face them if you do not want to, thus nullifying their choice, forcing them to choose someone else).






Bladers! We want YOU to bring your friends to BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2 and Recruitment Session's 5 & 6! But why should you do this, you ask? Because the more Bladers you recruit, the better the chance you'll have at winning some cool Metal Fight Beyblade ZERO-G prizes! And new Bladers equals new friends, new competition, and an insurance that Beyblade tournaments in Toronto will continue to be as exciting (and sometimes cold) as ever!


Rules
  • Step 1: Have your friend(s) create an account here on worldbeyblade.org.

  • Step 2: Bring your friend(s)–who have never played in a WBO tournament–to BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 5, BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 6, and BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2 and have them compete. I will mark down as they register that they are a friend of ______, so be sure to tell them to tell me that you were the person who "recruited" them!

  • Step 3: For each friend you bring, you'll be given an entry into the random draw that will take place during BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2 at ANIME NORTH 2012 on May 26th.
Additionally, if your friend plays in one of the three tournaments, and then returns for a second ... you will be given one bonus entry into the draw!

For those of you can't find any people among your regular friends to come, don't hesitate to round up people at ANIME NORTH itself, hah.


Prize Pool
  • 1st Place: BBG-03 Start Dash Set, BBG-08 Pirates Oroja, BBG-09 Random Booster Vol. 1 Thief Fennec x1
  • 2nd Place: BBG-01 Samurai Ifraid W145CF, BBG-09 Random Booster Vol. 1 Thief Fennec x1
  • 3rd Place: BBG-09 Random Booster Vol. 1 Thief Fennec x1

THE CRUSADE starts now!!


We encourage all Bladers–from the bright-eyed novice to the experienced veteran–to attend BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2, hosted by AN GAMING! With the release of Beyblade Zero G looming, now more than ever, is a time for Bladers around the world to re-energize themselves, spread their passion for the game, and charge towards the future! Join the crusade at ANIME NORTH 2012. We hope to see you there!

The hotel is like 5 minutes away from the place. I couldn't control the time I land...I will be able to make it at 1...
Would the beyblade pass cover fridays tournament? I got a Saturday pass about 20 mins ago.

Are you coming with a parent? Ask them how long they think it will take you to get out of the airport.

It most likely will not. Last year the pass was only for the main tournament on Saturday.

I guess sneaking in and hoping i dont get caught is the answer for Friday then.
Does my dad have to pay for BC2 cause if he does I can't go...

They said once I land, they'll get me there. We're doing a late check in...

Do you have to buy tickets for the convention to be able to play in this tournament?

I start selling on Friday night!

Aw then That really sucks cuz your gonna run out of Diablo stocks by the time the actual tournament starts Uncertain
(May. 19, 2012  5:20 AM)OrionHunter Wrote: Does my dad have to pay for BC2 cause if he does I can't go...

I don't believe so. Last year many parents accompanied their kids to the tournament.

I'd like to say "if you can guarantee me you'll be there at 1:30PM, I'll do my best to save you a spot", since I do realize how far you are traveling, but it just seems unrealistic to get out of the airport and everything so quickly.

(May. 19, 2012  9:51 AM)ijl007 Wrote: Do you have to buy tickets for the convention to be able to play in this tournament?

Yes. There may end up being a $6 Beyblade Pass for people who only want to participate in the tournament, like there was last year, but that has yet to be confirmed. I don't believe you can purchase day passes online anymore, but from what I understand, some day passes should also be available on the day of the convention. The day pass will grant you access to not only the tournament, but the entire convention. If you plan on attending, I'd suggest you get to the convention early to purchase the pass before coming to the tournament. All further information can be found on www.animenorth.com.

Maybe, maybe not. I'd suspect that most of the players who are playing on Friday night will already have a Diablo Nemesis, so it's quite possible that I'd end up still having one left.
Will anyone be bringing plastics? And just letting everyone know that Yesterday was the last day to buy Saturday passes.

Sigh, All we can really do now is hope.
Does anyone want to meet up on Friday afternoon?

I can bring some if you want. And yes, it seems that was the case, however, as I said in my previous post:

This is really important for all of you to understand. Hopefully the $6 Beyblade Pass will be approved, but there is no guarantee, so if you want to play in this tournament, you'll have to purchase a day pass for Saturday. Many of you who are younger will be able to purchase the pass at $20, but even for those who would have to pay the higher price ... it really is worth it! There's a lot to see and do at the convention, and BEYBLADE CRUSADE 2 is simply not something you want to miss!
I'd be interested in meeting up Thursday or Friday.

Oh, you'll be there on Thursday too? I wasn't sure when you would be arriving. If both of you will be around on Thursday, I can probably come over there for a bit. We can figure it out via PM.
Confirmed, I can make it there on time. I changed my flight.
I will be attending on Saturday.

Nice! I'm glad you'll be able to make it.
