The only other person on a Winning Combination list that has used Lift with Bearing is Ardmore Bladers very recently. In Japan, literally everyone uses Lift with Bearing now because it allows it to stay upright slightly longer than other Frames usually.Interesting. I seen some people using it on youtube but I didn't knew why they did so. how does it compared to 8'/0P? Also did anyone used 8' and/or Proof frame? @[Justin TC] how rP Revolve did for you? and why not 7 disk?

Maybe there's something specific that can destabilize it, but generally speaking it takes a long time to fall over. 3. I haven't tested Attack Mode for much other than to see how it compares with the other modes in opposite spin stamina battles, but that's a good idea. It might be work for that. 4. 0 has better stamina than 7 in my experience. Also in Japan, everyone uses 0, 10, or Ωuter. 5. Need to test more! (Oct. 30, 2018 8:22 PM)FIREFIRE CPB Wrote: Interesting.

[split] Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - ~Mana~ - Oct. 31, 2018 Meta Madness London, UK - 27/10/18 Custom Ruleset: Archer Hercules, Hell Salamander, Revive Phoenix were banned from this event. 1st- @[Basedsamuraij] Crash Ragnaruk 7 Cross Zephyr' Dead Hades 7 Cross Xtreme' Arc Bahamut 7 Proof Absorb Deep Chaos 7 Proof Absorb Arc Bahamut 0 Proof Absorb (Deck Format Finals Only) Bloody Longunus 10 Reach Xtreme' (Deck Format Finals Only) 2nd - @[Mashoga] Drain Fafnir 7 Bump Atomic Z Achilles 1' Hit Yielding Dead Hades 0 Bump Zephyr' Twin Nemesis 7 Dagger Destroy' 3rd - @[Mr LT] Winning Valkyrie 1' Hit Xtreme' Dead Hades 8 Bump Destroy' Geist Fafnir 0 Proof Zephyr' Bloody Longinus 12 Reach Hunter' Z Achilles 13 Dagger Jolt Orb Egis 7 Vortex Yielding I don't really understand the opinion coming out of the Toronto event that the meta is in a good place. It isn't. It's fine to think it is, but it undeniably is in a stagnant state and needs a massive change. When all but one combo on the Winning Combos for that event utilise the three problem Layers (as has been the case for many months now), I find it really hard for anyone to justify saying that the meta is in a good place. So now take a look at our recent London event, with all three of the problem combinations removed. See a massive difference in diversity of combinations there? Attack was far more prominent due to the removal of problem Layers. While Sr Bearing was still a thing, the increased amount of attack usage meant that it was being ragdolled around a lot of the time, and wasn't the most effective of choices. Even Sr Destroy' ended up being KO'd often, likely due to the difference in weight compared to some Cho-Z Layers. Special mention to cR.7C.Z' for being the MVP combination of the event, as Jay can agree. I'd been toying around with it on Destroy' and Zephyr' throughout the day before settling on Zephyr due to it's better stamina and being a safer stalling option. It hits a nice balance between being a stamina staller and maintaining it's potential to KO opponents. Dead Hades has also proven to be an interesting attack choice as well, and the Layer itself seems to be have some decent stamina behind it. I absolutely cannot advise using it on a non-dash Driver though, haha. Gums are gums at the end of the day. I won't talk a tonne here about the event as I know Jay intends to write a tournament report for this event, but I'm happy to answer some questions anyone may have. I'd firmly encourage other communities to try this custom banlist out though as, while it's drastic, I do think this is one of the best moves going forward to bring diversity and balance back to what is undeniably a stagnant and lacklustre stamina-dominated metagame. RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - Infinite.Zero - Oct. 31, 2018 Wtf happened to gF 0P Xt+??? RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - Dragunix - Oct. 31, 2018 Anyways... It's interesting to see Yielding on the winning combos twice. The presence of Absorb is interesting too. Not sure what launches anybody used for Absorb based combos, but it's neat regardless. Spoiler (Click to View) And the lack of Xt+, revolve, bearing...while frames actually existed for once. But on a side note, how did Hades perform? RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - kidwhoasksalot - Nov. 01, 2018 (Oct. 31, 2018 11:18 PM)Dragunix Wrote: Anyways... I guess soft to moderate launch? It has a decent LAD through the end, it's good with not so wide layers, Absorb doesn't really have a strong spring + layers with weak teeth but absorbs impact, I believe it's soft launch, not sure, just my theory. RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - MagikHorse - Nov. 01, 2018 To my knowledge Absorb is like a slightly better Revolve, but with some offensive power early. I haven't tinkered around with it too much myself, but it does seem to show some promise as long as you don't overdo it. RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - Frostic Fox - Nov. 13, 2018 Alright, I've split off the discussion of the potential of removing hS, aH, and rP from play into its own thread. It was kinda taking over this thread, but now you can continue on with the topic there. Feel free to make other comments or post other questions regarding the Meta Madness (or other tournaments) here. Let's try to stick to the other thread for the "ban talk". RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - The Supreme One - Nov. 19, 2018 Beyblade Burst Turbo: Metal-less Fury 1st Place - Tangy Blader LC Archer Hercules 10 Eternal LC Hell Salamander 7L Bearing Spriggan Requiem 0B Atomic (Deck Format Only) 2nd Place - Builder17 Dead Hades 4 Z' LC Archer Hercules 7 Bearing LC Hell Salamander 0C Xt+ 3rd Place - The Supreme One Hell Salamander 7L Bearing Archer Hercules 7L Bearing Hell Salamander 7C Atomic Hell Salamander 7C Xt+ Archer Hercules 7C Xt+ Archer Hercules 0 Atomic (Deck Format Only) [i]Hell Salamander 7C Bearing (Deck Format Only)[/i] This tournament was certainly a stressful one for many competitive players, and the first time that aH vs hS Br matchups appeared to be a serious issue. In a number of instances, matches felt unwinnable with as many as 10 ties called in a single match before a winner could be determined, even when the rounds were recorded (in my match against Builder17, we had at least 5 ties in a row at one point!). The most challenging thing about this situation was that the winner (by a hair) of one match-up wouldn't necessarily win a similar match-up. I found myself switching between aH and hS Br and between 7L and 7C with no sense for which one was the most reliable. AerialSnack appeared to have the clearest win in a match against HyperBey123's hS 0B Br using aH 7C Br, but when I switched from aH 7L Br to 7C Br to try it out, I lost to Tangy Blader's hS 7L Br (the combo he'd seen me win with earlier on in the tournament). Needless to say, Bearing certainly dominated this tournament, but not without its faults - surprise bursts and KOs knocked a number of skilled players out of the running for finals due to the two-point burst rule. One note: Builder17 used Dead Hades 4 Z' to win 3 matches in the first stage. In all 3, both players had agreed not to use Archer Hercules or Hell Salamander.

Everyone had a good time, though it took a lot of coaching before players accustomed to the stamina meta of Burst felt comfortable using attack. A quick note here that I opened a set of Pre-HWS beys for players to use during the tournament & it turns out the Virgo mold that jackpotgodzilla was using might have been a good one according to Yami.

I might be wrong. Not really; Lift still keeps the beyblade upright regardless of whether 7 or 0 is used. It would require pretty extensive testing to determine whether Lift performs better on 0 or 7 as a whole because the difference between the two frames is pretty negligible and variations in parts and combos used will have different results.

And there are people who believe weight is king, above all else. Bump is bulkier than cross, so there is at least scrapping to worry about. I think more friction is not good for stamina. But on some taller drivers the scrapping is not as much of an issue.(Nov. 19, 2018 7:50 AM)The Supreme One Wrote: From my testing and that of several other competitive players, 7 has proven to have better balance and usually better stamina than 0 & 10.

That is all. RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - MonoDragon - Nov. 22, 2018 And only a single Attack combo in the entire list... Is Crash Ragnaruk really that good of a push Attack/Mobile Stamina combo? RE: Winning Combinations at WBO Organized Play Events - ~Mana~ - Nov. 22, 2018 Pretty much. Main objective for me is to get the KO, which cR is pretty good at doing, but the use of Zephyr' and cR's fantastic stamina anyway means that it can also seriously compete for stamina finishes after dealing enough significant blows. If KO isn't a good option (as tends to happen against aH Eternal), Zephyr handily rides the ridge of the stadium instead, which can make it a good option as a stamina staller as well.

That combo in particular beats aH more often than not and bursted it a couple times in the knockout stages, too. The good LAD and stamina along with Ds' ability to constantly barrage stamina types with attacks meant if the matches lasted long enough to be stamina wins then it stood a chance. Being as heavy as it is it also retains speed while attacking whereas the lighter combos can't always keeo up with it. Would recommend trying the combo out, it's reliable. In regards to crash... It tornado stalls well and also does well to knock other beys out of the stadium if they ride the ridge. Looking forward to trying that combo out when the ChoZ custom set comes through. Crash performs well with dash drivers and I'm excited to see how well it fares with the newest releases. Seems like attack combos are starting to be relevant again! (For London at least lol) |
