For example, in MFB different Track heights add an additional level of strategy because the different heights are more or less effective against each other for each type of Beyblade. For example, low-track Attack (usually heights 85-125, often abbreviated LTAC) is extremely powerful against mid-height (125-165) opponents, but can't reach high-Track combos (165-230). If you want to beat a very tall opponent with Attack, you need to use taller tracks, which in turn makes you vulnerable to low-track Defense. In Burst, the type triangle is complicated by the Burst gimmick, which means that Attack types may aim to either KO or Burst their opponent, and your combos and strategy for the other types need to adjust to reflect that threat. Additionally, there are less traditional Beyblade types such as Anti-Attack (A mix of Attack and Defense that aims to beat Attack types with their own recoil and KO Stamina types), Tornado Stallers (A special Stamina type that circles around the edge of the Stadium to avoid opponents that need to hit you to win), Destabilizers (A Beyblade that tries to knock opponents off-balance to deployed their Stamina and win), and, of course, left-spin Beyblades, which complicate things even more.

The decision to go with a specialized combo capable of countering specific opponents easily or to use Balance combos that are good in several roles (and are thus harder to counter) is also an important part of both regular matches and Deck Format; you want a deck to be capable of handling any threat that you might encounter but you also need to make it hard for your opponent to do the same to you. There are a lot of things to consider when building Beyblade combos or a Deck, haha.

I launch the Layer on Gravity Revolve for high OWD and to make it stationary, then I hold a Defensive Layer in hand (in my case Wyvern) and just constantly push the Beyblade with it to feel out the recoil.

I'm also currently waiting for a Launcher Grip to arrive from Japan. Should I use the BeyLogger for what it was meant for and create an account for the Japanese Burst app, or just put batteries in it to see how well I'm launching? I hope with the next Burst ?season?, Takara Tomy will make a better, more reliable BeyLogger.

Is there a thing, other than Google Chrome, that translates the Japanese on the Beyblade Burst app to English? And do I need to create a Takara Tomy email account to be able to log in or can I just use the email account I currently have?

You can use your currently email to make an account. I am using my Gmail for mine, so I can confirm it works.
