BeybladeBattles.com article Wrote:What the heck it is:

BeybladeBattles.com is an online simulation of real-life Beyblade battles. Users can sign up and have their own account which lets them accumulate online points through battle simulations. You can customize your virtual tops by using the Beylocker. Users may also change their avatar to resemble whatever they wish.

The various tops to choose from consist of Electro Battlers, IR Spin Control, Tornado Battlers and normal MFB.

After having customized their tops, users can then wait in the Battle Lobby where they will wait to be paired up with another user for an online battle. Battles are real-time and there are various stadiums to choose from. Each stadium has its own little gimmick and surprise. The more challenging arenas, namely the “Volcano Arena” awards more points than the simpler stadiums like the “Forest Arena”.

After being paired up with another random user, players will choose a top and a launcher to take into each round. At the start of the battle, users can position their launcher and choose the speed and angle of the launch. After the electronic signal “3, 2, 1 LET IT RIP!” users use the mouse to drag the rip cord out of their launchers, sending both tops into battle.

Battles consist of three rounds in which users can use different gimmicks, such as “Jump”, “Shield” and “Freeze” to gain victory. After accumulating a certain amount of points, users can then unlock items and other Beyblade pieces from the BattleShop in exchange for their Battle Points.

Code cards (don’t know what to call them!): *add a photo

Code cards come in Beyblade packages sold at stores. They usually display the Beyblade that the card came with. On the inside of the card, there is a special code which gives you additional points on BeybladeBattles.com. Another useful purpose for these codes is during battles. Once you enter a code online, it triples the points accumulated during battles for the following 24 hours.


Online Tournaments:

BeybladeBattles.com occasionally hosts online tournaments where they will open up a “Tournament Arena” or designate a specific tournament arena where users can battle. Only points accumulated in these stadiums will actually count for the tournament point rankings. At the end of the tournament three winners with the highest points accumulated in those stadiums during the tournament time will be awarded with online trophies. These trophies show up as small icons under your avatar.

The Canadian qualifier for the Beyblade World Championships (insert link here) also used the online tournament format.

I listed the tracks that you missed.

It is "Performance Tips" not "Preformance"
Blade looks like a Cyclone Wheel, with a bunch of sharp stuff on it.
You also missed "Slime" in the Energy Rings, which looks like a recolor of Bull.

I hope I helped!
