So I recently attended my first tourney. It was good, very much a fun time, friendships were made and blades were busted. I mean I only won a single match but hey, it was my first time.

That brings me to the topic of this thread. Other than doing the obvious thing of piggy backing onto the meta picks, trust me my ODIN is in the mail, what do you guys do to train?

For the past few days I've been launching again and again, quickly finding out that Extreme wasn't the worst bottomy bit thingy I owned after all (yeah I don't even remember part names yet...). But I'm sure there must be other training routines or methods out there.

What do you guys do to improve your skill, personally I'm waiting for my beyspirit to start coming through.
So, while this video is done kind of jokingly it does touch on the four main things you need to have down to be successful in tournaments: accuracy, power, skill, and knowledge. First and foremost, learn to sliding shoot very well, this is an essential skill in tournaments. Second, become overly familiar with parts to the point that you can recognize something almost instantly (this is valuable for combo building and mid-battle for adjusting the way you launch). Third, assemble a collection of top tier parts. While a lot skill does go into Beyblade without competitive parts you will have a substantial amount of difficulty finding success against the best players. Fourth, learn how to reach max launch speed every time you launch (especially in mirror matches launch speed is critical). Fifth, learn to watch your opponents. If you have an idea of what your opponents have been using elsewhere in a tournament you have a much better chance of being able to guess what they might use. In the upcoming weeks (when I have a break from class) I'm actually going to be putting together a whole video series about becoming competitive in Beyblade. I'll throw you a PM when I finally get around to posting it. On the other hand, I think there may already be a training techniques thread somewhere? So this may end up getting closed due to no fault of your own as it is a relatively obscure thread.
Yeah, I've been noting the effects of my hand angle and the corresponding nature of my spin.

For example my Extreme driver (now I remember the names of things) works a lot better with a slight angle to it so it doesn't spin wildly around the outskirts of the beystadium. I mean I'm still not completely sold on it, but it helps get one shot bursts pretty consistently against a defense bey I have been using a sparring bey.

The PM would be greatly appreciated, and if this post gets shut down then so be it. If anything I would like to make this game more open to beginners. There's a steep learning curve involved, I got completely trounced in the first tournament because I just thought I had to show up and spin the thing.

Beyblade is a rather daunting thing to pick up on the competitive level.
