B-174 Limit Break DX Set

Product Information

So there may come a time when the lower positioning of Limit Break Disks does not negatively affect them as much. The Long Sparking BeyLauncher L and Long Sparking BeyLauncher R are the strongest launchers yet in the Beyblade Burst series and arguably a must-have for competitive players moving forward. But they are not aligned; the most egregious example of this is the disparity in compatibility between Takara-Tomy and Hasbro Beyblade Burst tops that was intentionally invoked at the beginning of Beyblade Burst’s release outside of Asia. Limit Break Disks like Cho and Ou have a raised centre portion, which decreases stamina, but increases maximum RPM potential.

As time went on, issues began to arise such as Beyblades becoming stuck between the edge of an exit in the Burst BeyStadium Standard Type and the interior of the cover that extends just beyond that exit to allow Beyblades to be knocked-out. There are many possibilities such as the introduction of rubber Driver Chips or something like Xceed’ but with a metal flat tip. Personally, I prefer the +Z Chip on both Zone’ and Xceed’ due to the considerable boost to opposite spin performance it provides.

What they don’t demonstrate however is the potential benefit of the added burst resistance as well as the ability of Zone’ to aggressively circle the tornado ridge when launched near it. Lastly, the smaller circle makes it harder to do flower patter attacks on rubber-tipped Drivers, at least from my experience. The result was the V80 matching system that ensures that every B174 belt can be used in a matched set, regardless of batch or lot.

Looking back on the history of Beyblade stadium design, it’s actually quite remarkable how creative Takara-Tomy and Hasbro’s output has been with the series.The singular large pocket solves this, but I understand that the two smaller ones could not have been designed to do that for the sake of balancing and enabling the gameplay goal of the stadium. Inflict a win condition on your opponent through simultaneously launching your spinning top within the space of that stadium. In each case, these tournaments always seemed built solely for the purpose of marketing and promotion of the brand rather than building a genuine competitive environment for players to compete with each other. The brand has been so successful that there must be some reason that Takara-Tomy and Hasbro in particular have not stepped up to build a stronger framework for organized, competitive play. Starting simple or with the fundamentals also gives them room to expand to more outlandish ideas so that they can one-up themselves and impress fans later on in the series.

I don’t see Double Chassis going anywhere just yet when it comes to competitive play, but if Takara-Tomy continues this trend of Limit Break Rings and Disks in the new season coming in 2021, we may eventually see the Burst Finish make a comeback. The comparison to Wheel–the current gold standard for same- and opposite-spin stamina–however is a bit difficult.In both generations they release an excellent initial stadium for competitive play, but then really stumble from there to create something which can match it. By imposing a more restrictive view which demands that Beyblades must touch each other or must touch the stadium floor first for a match to be considered valid or that Beyblades cannot win inside of the “extended play area” attached to a stadium, the game moves a little bit closer to becoming homogenized.

In the same manner these belts are advantages where reverse idlers have to be used, because of smaller heights. My first impression of Burn was formed largely by how well it was performing against Tempest, but Infinite seems to be its kryptonite to some degree. Having just 1 main pocket for actual KOs is also another thing to note of when taking your launching position, as launching miscalculations will cost a self-KO straight into it. And this time, it’s with not only the Beyblades themselves, but with the environment they play in: the new Dash BeyStadium! This technique is particularly critical for attack types as it is what allows them to create a flower pattern and swoop into the centre of the stadium in an effort to score a burst or KO.The five-bladed design of Volcano is reminiscent of the Hell Salamander Layer in attack mode, and it’s spring-loaded gimmick changes the Ring into a ten-bladed design.
