I’ve seen guilty on ignition’ by some users here in Cali as well. It seems like guilty might be useful as a destabilizer because of the width? Wave’ is a pretty tall driver after all.

guilty is used because of low center of gravity of low mode and it has sharp edges which can be used as stationary attack

So a clarification, this particular event
* Did not have the One Part Per Driver Family Deck 3v3 prohibition
* Was in DB beystadiums
* Was 3v3

Wave' is a halfway decent attacker in DB. Ignition' and Hybrid scrape way too much in DB, it's too angled. Zone'+Z tends to stay more upright in DB, which will angle the layers a lot more than a standard beystadium.

You're reading that correctly. What's more, it did fairly well against... well it was either Drift or Bearing. I don't know what to tell you, we all had trouble understanding this. But Mike made it work.

Well, the new rule has uh... Helped the triple lad combo thing a tonne huh? I'm sure it was fun to judge.

Mea culpa tho - maybe triple "spamina" is more of a concern than I thought. Perhaps as an organisation we should avoid doing things that hurt attack, the main counter to LAD combos, as much as we can? 😬

Yeah, I mean I wasn’t a judge or anything, but having watched most of the matches there were I think 3 matches that were drawn out until round 7 or 8. And people used dynamite on bearing extremely consistently, vanish on bearing was also there as well. Only a few people had the new belial2 and Perseus core, or those who did didn’t know to put them on their dynamite. 
There was a kid running cyclone on ignition’ tue entire time, another kid was running vice leopard, and another kid was running dynamite stock on mobius.

And the stock dynamite on Mobius took the player to the finals on its back in a field of dynamite and vanish bearings.

To be completely honest, and not to say he was bad or his combo was bad or anything like that at all, he did face a lot of the kids who were using older beys and things. But I didn’t see all of his matches so I’m probably wrong. Also on a different note, when do you’re going to host the next tournament and what format? Just to try and test ahead

I kind of just threw in my deck since I've been having difficulties with my flower pattern with the new launcher from b-191 set.

Nice! I use it A LOT and love the combo personally. If you put Giga on it and make it as heavy as you can, it's a lot easier to control. You need to launch it very hard with an angle. It's very nice to KO with.

HLc2.Wh.MUn 4A is an interesting one. How'd it perform for you?

Being in the DB stadium, it works as well as drift for opposite spin in that thing. Some things that don’t work in the standard stadium work well in the DB stadium, and my Metal Universe happens to be one of those things.

I see you ran it with eccentric parts, too - I'm assuming as an Attack type? Did you match or offset Hollow and 4A's weight distribution?

Hollow may be known for attack, but it’s actually much better for opposite spin stamina. The distribution depended on the situation, though the Lucifer2 chip’s heavier side was always on Hollow’s heavier side. The 4A alignment was what I changed depending on what it was up against.
