-----------------------------
What do you guys think? There is definitely going to be a need to edit this as for some of the Beyblades I had not really heard about before, I randomly placed them in a tier. So any changes you want to make are welcome.

I was thinking, maybe we should add one more tier just to get even more specific?

Advance omega Wrote:cyber dragoon's attack ring may have decent smash but its speed lowers to quickly for it to win a match. the only way it would win is by hitting the beyblade within the first 5-10 seconds while roaming around the stadium at a very high spin rate. i would place it in tier 2 cus of decent smash.
also advance averazer should be tier 3 its awsome beyblade
( cus i like it) OPINION

isnt that what smash blades are supposed to do?
and why is galzzy and metal draciel in tier 2?

Advance omega Wrote:ah. i thought higher number is a better beyblade. sorry lol. its because i used to have a racing game where the higher the tier the better. i still dont think cyber dragoon is that good of a attack ring since it loses speed so fast(3 hits)

G Wrote:Here's what I'm basing mine off of:
Tier 1: Necessity (Overall good/Has a staple part that you should get)
Tier 2: Great addition (Has at least one good part worth getting)
Tier 3: Good addition (Has a decent part that could be used, but not really needed)
Tier 4: Junk (Self explanatory/Easily outclassed)

Tier 1:
Ultimate Frostic Dranzer (Overall Good)
Draciel Metal Ball Defenser (Overall Good)
Driger S (Overall Good)
Galeon (Overall Good)
Kid Dragoon/Dranzer GT (Must have AR)
Dragoon Grip Attacker (Must have BB )
Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger (Must have SG)
Wolborg (Must have SG)
Wolborg 2 (Must have SG)
Trygle (Must have AR)
Dragoon V2 (Must have BB )
Voltaic Ape (Must have SP) Also nice uncustomized.
Dranzer V2 (Must have SP) ^ Mention how it's overall good uncustomized? If it's just for the SP though, this either moves down to Tier 2 next to the Dark Series or the Dark Series move up to Tier 1.
Gaia Dragoon V (Must have BB )
Burning Kerberous (Must have SG)
Dragoon G (Must have AR)
Metal Driger (Has HMC)
Draciel S (Must have BB )

Tier 2:
Dragoon S (Useful BB )
Seaborg (Useful BB, Decent AR)
Dranzer F (Useful AR)
Master Draciel (Useful AR) This and Kid Draciel should be Tier 3. It's not bad, but there's better parts out there.
Dark Series (Useful SP)
Driger V2 (Useful uncustomized)
Wolborg 4 (Useful BB )
Dragoon GT (Useful AR) seems more fitting of Tier 3 by your definition
Draciel V2 (Useful SP)
Kid Draciel (Useful AR) See: Master Draciel
Flash Leopard (Useful AR) It's also nice uncustomized.
Driger G (Useful AR) Tier 1 maybe? I think it's a staple, at least more usefull than the other ARs in this tier.

Tier 3:
Master Dranzer (AR and BB could be used)
Metal Dranzer (Useful uncustomized, but outclassed)
Death Driger/Shadow Driger (Potentially used for WD Attacking)
Driger F (The Bearing and Shaft can be used)
Dragoon F (BB can be used)
Draciel F (Contains 3 Metal balls)
Seaborg 2 (AR can be used for Smash)
Cyber Dragoon (AR Can be used for Smash)
Guardian Driger (Has the War Lion AR, but not the SR)
Dranzer G (AR can be used)
Gigars (AR Can be used for Force Smash)
Zeus (AR can be used) Why isn't the base/CG mentioned? That's still it's main selling point. I think it could be moved up to Tier 2.
Rock Bison (the EG can be used to improve Wolborg IV)
Trypio (AR can be used)
Roller Defenser (AR can be used for Right Spin Zombie)
Appolon/Venus/Poseidon (Big and Heavy ARs)

Tier 4:
Spin Dragoon
Spark Knight
Bump King
Bound Attacker
Bound Defenser
Wing Attacker
Wing Defenser
Sparkling Attacker
Griffolyon
Salamalyon
Wyborg
Dranzer V
Trygle 2
Flame Pegasus
Bakushin-Oh
Roller Attacker
Driger V Seems fitting of tier 3 description. BB isn't bad.
Dragoon V Same as above.
Draciel V
Flash Leopard 2
Master Driger
Galzzly
Galman AR isn't bad, just that there's better out there in the upper tiers. Tier 3 maybe?
Galeon 2

Questionables (I can't make my mind up on these):
Gabriel (Useful AR. Useful BB? 2?) It's only the AR from what I hear, but yeah, at least Tier 2.
Uriel 2 (Useful BB. 1/2?) If Grip Attacker and Gaia Dragoon V are Tier 1, I see no reason why this shouldn't be.
Blizzard Orthrus (Useful SP? 2?) Dark series are there, so yeah.
Uriel (Useful AR and BB? 2/3?) Sounds like Tier 3 to me.
Gaia Dragoon (Useful BB, I'm think on the direct border of 2/3)
Dranzer Auto Change Balancer (I remember it being overall good, but maybe in the 3 range since it's outclassed compared to Bistool?)
Dranzer S (The Bearing and Shaft can be used, 3?) Yeah. I actually fiddle more around with the casings than anything else, but if I had other parts, I probably wouldn't be using them much.
Trygator (It's more round and looks like it can be used. 3?)
Gaia Dragoon G (SR can be used for grinding... grinding sucks though so 3/4?)
Draciel G (Defensive EG... 3/4?)

No idea at all
Killer Eagle/Rapid Eagle
Bakuten Henkei Gaia Dragoon (wth is this. Is that the white transforming Bey?)
Death Gargoyle (Heard the AR can be used)
Spike Lizard
Crab Diver
Orca Diver (4th?)
Manta Diver
Desert Sphinxer
Rushing Boar

Train Wrote:Saizo/Spark Knight/Polta should be 3 not 4. Same with Death Driger. For WD attack purposes, just my opinion.

However I have heard people say that WD attack isn't GREAT, but I've always thought it wasn't a bad strategy/type to use.

In my experience WD Attack is awful
