Today was a blast! The part diversity and dominance of attack was pretty incredible - kudos to Zyeyo for pulling some pretty clutch wins with Victory Valkyrie Knuckle Ultimate Reboot’. A big thank you to Wombat for hosting and Shindog for supplying us with prizes 
See you soon, LA.

Beyblade West was an amazing time! There were some good tournaments with some of the best bladers I've seen. The tournaments went fairly smoothly, and I look forward to seeing everyone again!
A couple of notes about this tournament and what we can do to make things go smoother next time:
- 30 Bladers is just fine. I've decided that I much prefer tournaments with a 32 player cap. 5 round swiss is always a good time, 6 can sort of drag, and take too long sometimes.
- The venue for this was okay! It was outdoors, and it wasn't too cold or windy. It would be good if bladers didn't wander off, but hey, that's how they do!
- does not have an amazing career ahead of him making smoothies. Please find another professional outlet. Dear God.
- If you bump into the back of a judge who's sitting at a beystadium while you're moving between two points, you have done something wrong.
- Revolve showed up a CRAZY amount during this tournament! And I definitely need to work on my attack launches as a result. If I'd launched better, I coulda stood a better chance against Yami.
- Organization-wise, we could have done better. It was only 15 matches per round so it went quickly, but oftentimes matches would cease getting called because organizers wanted to judge/record/spectate specific matches their friends were doing. It really slowed things down! In the future, let someone else call out matches. I offered but I wound up judging instead. I would say if you're focused on recording or spectating, don't do the match callouts. Delegate, don't delay!
- We've got some problems with rules lawyering! If your victory boils down to technicalities and rules oddities, that's no victory at all. Focus on fair play and fun rather than trying to seize points with gotchas. Remember, we're all here to have fun! And if we lose, let's lose fair and square rather than because of some arguments!
