Winning Combinations:

Mell1001 (1st Place)
Zwei Diabolos Blitz Drift
Imperial Achilles 00 Expand Destroy’
Lord Spriggan Around Zone’+ Z

Nate725 (2nd Place)
Zwei Diabolos 2 Sting Destroy Dash

Lord Spriggan 00 Cross Never

Zach216 (3rd Place)
Zwei Longinus Blitz Jolt’ Goku
Master Diabolos 2 00 Cross Zone’+Z
Lord Spriggan Around Drift

I love seeing combos on here like Imperial Achilles on Destroy’ and Lord Spriggan on Never, but then I see Zwei Diabolos on Drift and just become concerned how drift is going to negatively affect this meta. Attack back in GT times was prevalent, and I’m glad to see here it showed itself off some. How well did the attack combos here do against the drift combos?

Honestly, the Zwei/Drift combo was probably his worst combo. It got burst a couple times throughout the day. Imperial/Lord did most of the heavy lifting for him. Drift on Master/Lord was effective but still beatable with Zwei & Judgement by both burst & KO. From what I saw personally, Drift is not a big deal at all in BGT. Zone’ & Bearing’ were much tougher to deal with.

Maybe for this format, we should ban Lord, Judgement and Zwei, as they basically ruled over GT from what I could tell and they're giving Brawl Meta Knight vibes.

I wouldn’t say so. The reason why GT format is even a discussion is because because it would bring back the attack layers of Zwei and Judgment. Dominance doesn’t mean ban worthy, it just means they’re top tier for their respective format. Additionally, there is plenty more viable layers in GT format other than those 3. Master, Tact, Imperial, aB3, tS4, pP, aH, Naked and even Heaven now with the introduction of drivers like Drift. Meta Knight in Brawl would imply that their is such a significant difference in power scale to everything else that there would be no point in using anything else other than those 3 layers

Nah, that moves the format closer to what Limited already is plus it removes a ton of accessibility. Great thing about BGT is Pro Series being readily accessible in stores now & competitive. 

Anyways, BGT NEEDS Zwei & Judgement. Helps even odds vs stuff like Master, Lord, Perfect Phoenix, & Tact. Without them, it’s basically a stamina only format.

We need layers like Judgement and Zwei because their offense power are strong that it strengthens attack types for competitive.

Deathscyther layers aren't that much of a threat in Classic format because of the existence of dash drivers like Xtreme', Quick', Ultimate Reboot', Unite' and Keep'. This gives attack and defense types a chance to be a viable option for competitive in Classic.

Ban the two attack layers that make GT a fun and balanced format and just keep all the stamina except lord??? What a doozy of a suggestion. Meanwhile banning lord when Master and Tact are actually better on Drift than Lord is - but hey, let's keep making suggestions for bans without testing stuff or having a clue how the format is balanced. Dr and Br are kept in check by attack, which is kept in check by, well - look at this, we're in a thread that shows that despite guilty X', which is a near-judgment level monster of an attack setup capable of straight bodying everything in the format in competent hands, it sees limited use in a lot of places. You want to take the format where people might actually break that pattern and leave only the stamina layers, without even understanding what is good in the format? A little thought before hitting "Post Reply" please.

This forum baffles me. People complain about stamina but so many people seem intent on sending attack to hell, to the point things that do that end up in our rules because people are so short sighted they don't think through the flow-on effects of bans and restrictions - the place this is of utmost importance. God, trying to get this to fly back in the day...

SupaDav03: very excited to see people keep trying zwei drift for 1 tournament before realising it's horrible lol. I don't think br' is much of a threat with attack around, zone'+z is more solid but drift and br' beat it for lad and it still won't hold up to attack without a dedicated defensive setup, which sacrifices a lot. I've honestly found br' easier to handle than dr though, so that's an interesting observation.

Just because something is commonly used doesn't mean it's unbeatable, nor does it mean it's the best. For example, Lord was commonly used after its release up until Tempest took its place, so it saw about a year of use. However, Perfect Phoenix, Tact, Master, Naked, and even Air Knight were all viable stamina options that, in some cases, outperformed it. On top of this, attackers like Zwei, Judgement, and even Cho-Z Achilles were effective against it, with skilled attack users being able to win nearly 100% of the time.

Yes, stamina is easy to use, but that certainly doesn't mean it's easy to win with. This was especially true in GT era, and if you don't believe me, the evidence is in this very thread. Check out the winning combinations from tournaments that happened between the beginning of 2019 and mid 2020. Judgement and Zwei are very much there.

It's fine, sorry if I was harsh on you there, I'm just a little tense about this stuff because last time I was blasé about a restriction post that I thought was bad it ended up happening. Anyway, it's important to remember that just because something is even very popular, it doesn't necessarily mean it is broken - there will always be particularly good parts, but one must consider the format as a whole and the impact they have and whether it really is oppressive or not - oppressive is the key word, because to actually be broken, a part must make a large number of other parts unviable (not just outclassed for the same use as that part, but actually unusable because it exists). One must fully examine the impact of removing them - what other parts does it affect, and what will the format look like without it? In this case, the format actually becomes worse and actually less varied because of it (for example, removing the big attackers from GT means now there's no reason to run Dedicated Defense, and Knockout-based counter combos fall out of the format entirely too, aaand the LAD drivers are now unchecked - we've made the format much less diverse by removing things that are popular). 

It's not an simple matter, and nor is it one to be taken lightly (we are telling people they can't use a part they bought - that is not low impact) which is why I dislike people treating it so casually, ya know?

I am a little disappointed in the turnout of course this time around, hosting these vintage formats.  But that is not enough to deter me from hosting these format in the future.  I will continue to run these two formats due to their greatness.  Obviously the beyblades themselves being older than the avg age of the participants is an obstacle.  There is also some accessibility issues for sure.  These formats are too good to let die.  I encourage every competitive blader  to try PLA/HMS.   You don’t need to have the most competitive parts or lots of parts to enjoy these formats. They are also a lot of fun to play in stadiums other than just the ideal, but fragile and scarce Tornado Attack stadium.  If you like beyblade, you are most likely going to like PLA and HMS.

Yeah I agree, HMS in particular is a real "players format" pretty much peak gameplay, while plastics is peak customization with a very broad meta. Lots of parts can work really well in either format. Just wish we had a more resilient TA.

Flame is very round and despite the imbalance it's pretty dang good, no huge surprise. Rock has seen a bit of use previously too.

Great job for first place! It takes serious guts to use metal xtreme on anything and the fact that you were able to use nexus+s on a KO attack type despite the KO risk, wow. Just wow. What makes you prefer giga on bearing and over on never though? I would think they’d benefit from swapping discs since never is low and might scrape on over and bearing would benefit more in opposite spin with overs downward shape while not losing same spin.

Well for one, I beat an Over-Bearing' in a mirror match, and for another, Giga provides better stamina to Bearing than over does. Since I no longer use drift, I prefer LAD on my never.

Is your Bearing' slightly flattened?
