Quote:Tower is a Performance Tip released as part of the Burst System. It debuted with the release of the B-80 Random Booster Shelter Regulus .5S.Tw on October 21, 2017.

==Description==
Tower is a plastic semi-flat that features a unique automatic height-change gimmick. 

Early in battle, the centrifugal force pushes the tip upwards. The semi-flat tip creates a somewhat aggressive movement around the center that is easily knocked around due to the low amount of friction. It cannot reach the tornado ridge, or touch the middle.

Later in battle, the lowered centrifugal force causes the tip to become taller. This change does not help because the tall, thin tip is easily knocked off balance and the semi-flat tip is easily pushed around. In theory the change will help the Beyblade deflect blows, but in reality the poor balance and poor stamina makes it easily defeated in the second mode.

also a reverse tower would benefit layers like gZ and give better uses for vortex and bump frames.

imagine if hasbro did that

I wish but a reverse tower should be something they do with a hasbro only bey. lets say hasbro makes a bey like Shadow Orphius (misspelled Orpheus because hasbro does that). 8b.Pf (Pitfall also known as reverse tower but as a survive) sure the layer would be interesting i am thinking it would have say a free spinning gimmick with a catch (literally) at high spin the layer is locked and will not spin but when the two blades are pushed in it will free spin deflecting attacks. late in battle it will be free spin but killing stamina due to this.

with this the theoretical combos sR.8B.Pf and sO.8M.Be/At would be quite strong.

pitfall would give a real life version to bJ special move to any beyblade but effectively. one thing for sure mG.P.Pf would be terrifying. unless you are using Pf or V2/gV

Hasbro actually has thought up an Orpheus O2 Armed Defense. I think it's wave 6. It seems based off of orichalcum.

No.

you cant just say tower is not useful just because it preforms mediocre on regulus you even admitted you hadn't tested it

Well it's more like a educated guess, just based on physics and how it can preform with a bey can say a lot.

im not trying to say your completely wrong but there are alot of other category's to go by such as spin momentum air flow and center of gravity a great example was the Alter chronos [sorry if i wrote that wrong] which caused tower to lose control and even potentially exceed the tornado ridge whereas regulus delivered hits mainly to the middle of the stadium despite the fact that tower does rarely act up on regulus a great source of reference could be leo bursts testings

==Description==
Tower is a plastic semi-flat with a wide base that features a unique automatic height-change gimmick. 

Early in battle, the centrifugal forces two tabs outward which in turn forces the tip inward to the standard height. The semi-flat tip creates a somewhat aggressive movement that has trouble reaching the Tornado Ridge but has greater stamina than standard plastic flat tips such as Accel. However, the short distance between the stadium floor and the wide base creates a scrap risk.

Later in battle, the lowered centrifugal force allows the tabs to retract and allows the tip to rise up. In theory this is meant to increase contact between the Tower combination’s Disk and Frame and the Opponent’s Layer. Such contact would prevent the Tower combination from Bursting and instead cause the opponent to Burst. In practice however, the height of most Layers and the minimal change in height means that there will be contact with the Layers regardless. Furthermore the change in height will mean that the Tower combination’s Layer will be struck from un upwards angle, causing severe destabilization which is exacerbated by the instability present in having a tall tip on a narrow stem which increases Burst risk and drains Stamina.

Like Trans, it’s so bulky that the edges of the Driver can scrap against the stadium, especially when the tip retracts, the bulk is so close to the stadium

==Overall==
Overall, Tower has too little aggression for Attack and too little change in height for the gimmick to function as intended. Combined with the instability from being top heavy later in battle when spin speeds are low makes Tower unsuitable for competitive play.

As such, Tower is recommended for collection purposes only.
