This aggressive shape is designed to increase Burst Attack during Disc-to-Layer contact in Right-Spin Combinations. Reach features a round design with six large, clockwise blades, three of which are situated higher and three of which are situated lower on the Frame. While other Core Discs such as 4 and 7 can work better for Attack, Defense and Stamina, 2 works as an excellent alternative if those Core Discs are unavailable.ĭisc Frame - Reach Main article: Disc Frame - Reach 2 has a standard weight distribution and an average weight among Core Discs, these features allow it to act as a "Jack-of-All-Trades", capable of performing well in any type of Combination. Each side features one protrusion with "2" shaped molding on either side of the protrusion. Lost Longinus features three teeth of medium-high length that are capable of withstanding the recoil this Layer produces, even against another Left-Spin opponent as the heavy weight further increases Burst Resistance as the Layer's higher inertia can better resist teeth skipping.įorge Disc - 2 Main article: Forge Disc - 2Ģ, like other even numbered Core Discs, is symmetrical and elliptical in shape in order to facilitate a Disc Frame. Furthermore, it allows for some degree of Spin-Equalization, however not enough to be the primary focus for Combinations. However, the high recoil shape can still create strong Knock-Out potential in Opposite-Spin matches. However, the Left-Spinning nature of Lost Longinus means that it and a Right-Spin opponent's Layer will spin together like gears if they are of similar spin speed which heavily reduces recoil and rate of Bursts. With the aggressive design, makes this Layer excel in Knock-Out and Burst Attack potential in Left-Spin vs. The heavy weight of Lost Longinus generates high inertia and The second is the fact that this Layer is made to spin Left, opposite to every other Burst Beyblade before it. The inclusion of the metal made Lost Longinus one of the heaviest Layers in the game at the time of release. The first are the dragon heads as they are made of metal. The contact points of the larger wings are molded in the shape of spear heads which are meant to represent this Layer's namesake, the Roman Soldier Longinus of Christian Mythology who stabbed Christ in the heart with a lance. Takara Tomy's Lost Longinus is a wide and heavy Energy Layer designed for Attack that features two large dragon heads, representing the anime's rendition of this Layer's beast, a dragon, that come from the perimeter in towards the center and four wings, two of which are larger and make up the main contact points and two of which are smaller and make up secondary contact points, creating an aggressive, high recoil design. They have only moderate stamina but its enough to take out attack types.Energy Layer - Lost Longinus Main article: Energy Layer - Lost Longinus These beys work by combining heavy, bulky ,circular wheels with tracks that absorb hits and bottoms that use friction to grip the stadium floor. This is the reason why they must finish the battle as quickly as possible!ĭefense type beyblade tops' purpose is to counter the attack types.
While they are fast and powerful, attack types have very poor stamina. Attack beys rely on flat high fraction bottoms for fast movement speed and wheels with prominent contact points to lift or smash opponent away.
Their aim is to end the battle as quickly as possible either by knocking the opponent out or hitting them hard enough to deplete them of their spinning power.
Beyblades come in a variety of types, namely: attack, defense, balance and stamina.Īttack-type beyblade tops are the most aggressive. You must choose which bey to use for which opponent. This game involves more than just pulling the rip cord. Beyblade may seem like a simple game but it takes a lot of thinking and strategy to knock off an opponent's bey and win.
