Quote:[Hasbro Name], known as Beat Kukulkan in Japan, is an Energy Layer released as part of the Burst System. It debuted with the release of the B-101 Random Booster Volume 9 Beat Kukulkan 7Under Hunter on December 28, 2017.

==Description==
Beat Kukulkan features a vague tear drop shaped design with two large wings and two points of recoil on either side, akin to Qeutziko Q2, with a serpent's head molded on the bottom of the Layer, meant to represent this Layer's Japanese namesake; Kukulkan, the feathered serpent of Mayan mythology. As part of the Switch-Strike/God Layer System, Beat Kukulkan features a gimmick; the points of recoil can extend.

Like Ark Bahamut, Beat Kukulkan features a sub-layer that connects with the prongs of a Disk so as the Beat Kukulkan combination grows halfway to Bursting, the sub-layer moves and releases locks on the contact points, allowing centrifugal force to extend them outward and increase Attack potential, akin to the Xcalius series of Layers and their Disks of initial release.

Kukulkan is a serpent so that's what I'm sticking with

I also watched some vids and it seems like bK is good at burst attack!

I'm guessing the ridges of the contact points grip into the gaps of the opponent's Layer and forces a Burst from that. So far the only thing convincing is JoJo's test video where it did do well but half of her combos were really strange (Bearing on Alter Chronos? What?) so I'm indecisive

Yeah I agree because I watched jojo’s video in which she tested stock bK against other combos and a lot of them were strange as heck (she used planet on sT, destroy on aB and we know that aB has super weak teeth)

aB  with a mould chip is actually quite decent on destroy especially against attack

i also watched bbgs video where they put beat kukulcan up against god valkyrie and bk only lost about 4 or 5 rounds and the rounds that bk won ended up in mostly burst finishes but there were some knockouts and spin finishes performed by bk

But that's with Maximum Garuda on Atomic. Maximum Garuda is much stronger on Orbit

==Description==
Beat Kukulcan features a vague tear drop shaped design with two large wings and two points of recoil on either side, akin to Qeutziko Q2, with a serpent/bird's head molded on the bottom of the Layer, meant to represent this Layer's Japanese namesake; Kukulkan, the feathered serpent of Mayan mythology. As part of the Switch-Strike/God Layer System, Beat Kukulcan features a gimmick; the points of recoil can extend.

Like Ark Bahamut, Beat Kukulcan features a sub-layer that connects with the prongs of a Disk so as the Beat Kukulcan combination grows halfway to Bursting, the sub-layer moves and releases locks on the contact points, allowing centrifugal force to extend them outward and increase Attack potential.

The two points of contact are ridged which creates a surface that grips into the gaps and grooves of the opponent's Layer creating high Burst Attack potential while reducing recoil(?). The Attack potential is bolstered by the heavy weight from the thickness of the Layer which increases the inertia and the strong teeth of the Japanese release which reduces the risk of self Bursts. However, this method of attack reduces the effectiveness of the gimmick as the contact points do not depend on protruding from the Layer.

==Use in Attack Combinations==
Beat Kukulcan can be put to use in the Mobile Attack Combination Beat Kukulcan 0/2/4/5/7 Bump/Meteor Xtreme/Hunter/Destroy. The Burst Attack potential is bolstered by the heavy weight of the 0/2/4/5/7 Bump/Meteor Disc and Frame, the speed of Xtreme/Hunter/Destroy and the high friction of the Xtreme/Hunter Tip specifically. The heavy weight and strong teeth of Beat Kukulcan can compensate for the increased Burst risk of heavy Discs and high friction tips and the free-spinning plate of Destroy can allow the combination to potentially out spin the opponent if a Burst is not achieved.

==Overall==
Beat Kukulcan features heavy weight and high Burst Attack with little recoil compared(?) to other Attack Layers such as Sieg Xcalibur. While the gimmick has little effect on overall performance, the grip based Attack makes Beat Kukulcan a consistent counter against Maximum Garuda and a top-tier Attack Layer overall.

With comparable performance with Legend Spriggan and Sieg Xcalibur, Beat Kukulcan is a must have for competitive bladers.
