SUNDAY, AUGUST 2, 1PM
High Park - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
BURST FORMAT

From seemingly out of nowhere, the third generation of Beyblade has burst onto the scene!. Toronto Bladers, this is your chance to get a first hand opportunity to try out the new Beyblades from this exciting, explosive new series, receive one for yourself to take home, and trade parts with other players to build the best Beyblade you can!

Location:
We'll be playing in the shelter where we usually play. If you're coming to High Park via the Bloor entrance, just follow that road down on the right side and you'll see the large building/shelter on the left hand side before you reach the tennis courts. If you have any questions about the location, please post here! This map has the area we'll be playing in roughly outlined:



First 7 Participants get a brand new Beyblade to use and take home!
And listen, we're not asking for those products back at the end, no way! Those are really gifts for the community! The first 7 Bladers to arrive at the tournament will randomly pick one Layer, one Disk, and one Driver from the Beyblade Burst items shipped to the host, and leave with it at the end!!

What happens if there are more than seven players, do you ask? Quite simply, these first seven, lucky Bladers will be asked to share with the players who came in later to the event when they are not playing in an official battle with it already. Their Beyblade will be returned at the end, because the host will have written down who got what.

Mandatory $6 CDN Entry Fee = More Beyblade Burst Events + Extra Credits!
To help subsidize the high cost of importing some of the new Beyblade Burst items from Japan, a mandatory $6 CDN entry fee will be imposed on all Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene events, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport for $12 CDN, the total cost would be $18 CDN at a Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene event), and there will be no prize reimbursement. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the more we can afford to do for the community in the future! We're actually going to be losing money despite this entry fee, and for those that receive a Beyblade, it will be much cheaper to get one that way than it would be to import one yourself (although we certainly hope you all do this after playing with them!). However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the event, all participants in Beyblade Bursts Onto the Scene tournaments will receive the following:
  • +1 Extra Credit to be used for prizes from our awesome Blader Rewards, on top of whatever they would have normally earned.
  • New Passport Holders will earn +2 Extra Credits, rather than +1.

"But what about my BeyPoints? I've never played Beyblade Burst!"
No problem! The first Beyblade Event in every region will not count towards the BeyPoint System. Think of it as an opportunity to experiment and just focus on having fun with the new series.

Of course however, there will also be Faces and Credits to play for. Wink

What is Beyblade Burst?
Beyblade Burst is the brand new, third generation of Beyblade by TAKARA-TOMY! It is set to launch in July 2015 in Japan. If you are not familiar with Beyblade Burst, please take a look at the Beywiki article covering it: http://wiki.worldbeyblade.org/index.php?...lade_Burst

Ssshhhh! You're giving away my secrets to the world! My plan for Canadian takeover (retakeover? Eee ) is now ruined.

In other news, soon leaving home to take a coach to London Heathrow Airport. Toronto, I'll be over in a jiffy. And not in a jiffy bag.

I'm gonna try to get the dash set... is it possible to reserve one?
It's a first come, first serve basis so they can't be reserved, unfortunately.

So yeah but anyway I just entered Toronto Grin I should be at high park anytime now!!!! Soooo hyped!!!
Today was a very fun day! Testing out Michael Bay's Beyblades Burst was great seeing the new system attract some serious excitement. Seeing @[Bey Brad] and some of his friends come to the tournament was awesome, and I even got something autographed by him! (will post picture later). Hope to see you guys again soon! Smile

In the 3 way tie breaker with @[Mitsu], @[BAWB18] and @[1234beyblade], 1234beyblade and surprisingly BAWB18 moved on to the finals. Against a match with Kei, BAWB18 lost but got fourth place! Congratulations Ben (BAWB18), you did great for your third tournament Smile

And @[Blasterjoker1] earned the Apex BeyDragons a gold face Cool I didn't stay for the rest, but congratulations to whoever placed! Grin

I went 3-5, which is probably (and sadly) my best yet ( Unhappy i cri evrytim), but I'm happy since this was so much fun. Kerbeus Heavy/Central Defense/Survive was spammed A LOT today... And yes, I used it too.. Not too many ties. Thank you to @[Manicben] for the custom paper thing for the BeyLogger, I know everybody appreciated! Grin I know I do Smug Today I got to judge,but mitsu said i could but kei didnt know, so kei: blame mitsu and give him a 10% warning level (20% if you are feeling generous Wink )
All and all; great seeing Manicben, Brad and friends today, Kebeus spammed, lots of bursting and fun! Grin
The results are in!

1st Place: @[Blasterjoker1]
2nd Place: @[1234beyblade]
3rd Place: @[Kei]
4th Place: @[pyrus10000]

Today was a really fun tournament with a ton of surprises! Blasterjoker had won a tournament for the first time today, more importantly a Burst Format one! And best of all Bey Brad - yes, Bey Brad had made a surprise appearance today!

I went 5-5 in my block. Me, BAWB18 and 1234beyblade were put into a three way tie. Personally, I was confident I'd beat BAWB18 knowing as he was using a stock Kerbeus for almost all his matches, but confidence got the best of me and I screwed up my launches. I had also lost against 1234beyblade, so I was cut from the semis.

Kerbeus Heavy/Central Defense/Survive was used a ton day. I'd say in my block, at least, it was 80% Kerbeus, 10% Spriggan attack and another ten Valkyrie attack. Personally, even though Kerbeus was used a lot, I don't find it to be an amazing option for defense. It won quite a bit, though all it's matches as far as I can remember were very close. What was interesting, though, was Kei's use of Kerbeus Heavy Accel. It was very cool to see in action. It has aggression and at the same time, some defense.

It was nice seeing you all today and meeting Manicben, Beyonomics, Dragoon Z and Bey Brad for the first time. I'm hoping to see you all again soon! You guys are pretty darn amazing people. :)
Today was the greatest day that I had, not just by placing 1st for the first time, but it was great to see that the tournament had succeeded. It was also great to see bey Brad come to play in toronto (thanks for signing my beylogger). I had a lot of fun trying the bursts for the 1st time. It was great to see and meet Manicben for the very 1st time and he was really cool to hangout with. When I played kei and won the game, I was exctatic to hear that I got 1st place with a finals record of 5-0 however my overall record of the day wad 12-2 eventhough I stuck with 2 combos for most of the event. Thanks for making this tournament happen kei and I can't wait for the next burst event cause I will be there for that.

Also, I was really bored when I was waiting to play so I ended up doing some parkour during the event
Fun tournament!

Once again, 3.... 2.... 1..... BLAST OFF!
3, 2, 1, BLAST OFF! Indeed, today was an amazing day with some great experiences.
I could write an essay about what transpired today, but I'll keep it short.
High Park is great. Easy to navigate and the black squirrels were friendly as I arrived too early. Luckily Wally.web joined me and instantly became friends, since we had a lot in common. Then more people joined us, leading to myself buying a B-08 set and a grip and selling the stadium to Wally.web. Quickly making friends with other people, the time to the start grew shorter, and some people arrived late. Great to meet Kei and Beyonomics, top lads as we say in England, although everyone were top lads with great banter (He wasn't ready!).

Then it happened. Some random guy with two girls (lovely people btw) came closer to us, and while I was thinking "who is that guy?" someone shouted BEY BRAD!!! I can only say I went into shock. Its not everyday you get to meet the founder of the WBO, the eternal president himself. After mustering up the courage to shake his hand and talk to him, I did exactly that and after mentioning I was from London, he immediately knew who I was! Not gonna lie, I was moved and after talking a lot during the tournament, I quickly discovered he is a awesome guy and frikin cool (evidently popular with the ladies Grin ). Ha, basically all Canadians are kind and helpful from my experience so far.

Congrats to the winners! I hope everyone enjoyed the little "thing" I made and I hope that you will all be the envy of the entire WBO! Feel free to brag, since its a Bursts onto the Scene exclusive!

To everyone who went to McDonald's, I had a great time and cheers JessObre for introducing me to that wonderful burger concoction, whose name should not be mentioned here Grin I hope you guys can make it to London someday, where you will be welcomed with open arms, as you all did to me here.

I'm off to Vancouver tomorrow early morning, but you guys really made my time in Toronto an experience of a lifetime, and I hope to see you all sometime in the future. Maybe I shall make a grand/epic return someday? Grin



EDIT: Just noticed. Arrived there with one Wing. Got home and found three. I should have two, but now I have an extra Wing and I'm missing a Spread. I think I have Dragoon Z's Wing and he has my Spread. I is very sad, but not much I can do now... I get another spread from a booster
I do apologize for not playing, but congrats to all the players who came and placed! I also am happy to see people having fun at the tournament and being humble today, great job!! Today seemed really fun (Even though I was really tired). It was great meeting Beyonomics for the first time and also Manichben. I really had a good time seeing all of you guys again! Also good to see BeyBrad surprising us. It kinda sucks I had Basketball but at least I was here to see Manichben's experience eating tht burger XD. Hope to see you all at the next tourney! Eee
So instead of writing paragraphs like everyone i will just name some main highlights of the tournament!
1. Bey Bard making an appearance was totally mind bowing and unexpected!!! I literally went crazy, he is such a great guy!
2. Manicben coming all the way from London to come to our toronto community tournament! He is also very fun to hang out with!
3. Beyonomics coming back from the dead to spin some tops once again!
4. The tornado warning completely scaring me at mcdoonelds D: (I told pyrus10000 that i am coming to his house if it get's worse ;3 hopefully he would not kick me out!)
5. BlasterJoker1 getting his first gold face!!!! Congrats!!!
6. Valkyrie Heavy Accel destroys everything if you launch it really hard haha.
7. The string on my launcher burnt out a nice little line on my beylauncher (not sure when this happened haha)
8. Beyblade burst was not as bursty as i though it would be which i am happy about

So yeah i got to meet some amazing people today!

Everyone used spriggan, kerbeous, valkyrie, and this one guy who used Ragnaruk and kept saying "you're going to get RAGNARUKED" XD (not sure if that is exactly what he said) I personally found out that i prefer Valkyrie a lot more for attack over Spriggan and that Bursts did not occur as often as i expected them to.
