Hey RealDeal! Welcome to the WBO.
It's great that you're getting into Beyblade - it's an amazing game that requires all of skill, luck and basic knowledge. To start off..
We have the
Beyblade Wikia! General knowledge about specific Beyblades and parts and basically everything is on there. The
Mentors' Circle is also very useful. You'll be able to get started off of Beyblade. Feel free to check it out.
If you're interested in competitive combos,
this thread will do. We have a range of customizations for Beyblade Burst, MFB, and so on! It's good to start memorizing competitive combos and start to know the basics of each part and how well it performs in battle. Having this basic mindset can definitely help you out in creating a sufficient combo in any situation. This
thread can definitely help you out as well. Once you get more Beyblades or parts, you can post them on there and ask for combos.
As for tournaments, you're in NY - lucky! As for in New York, you can check out the
North America section for tournaments! Just search up your city and threads will pop up. Feel free to post a comment and let people know that you're interested in meeting up or you can ask for tournaments!
If you're interested in hosting one, reading the
rules is a must. This will provide you the basic rules of Beyblade and of course, rules that everyone
should follow. Here, we also have the
Event Guide, which states the basics of a hosting a tournament and formats.
