Why I Became A Sweaty Adult Beyblade X Player

Beyblade X is the brand-new generation of Beyblade, and with this new generation, a large influx of curious people have found that it's a hobby with a lot of fun to offer for people of all ages. So as a weird adult Beyblade fan, I felt it was my duty to plead my case to the internet.

beyblade x is pretty much the perfect gen for adults who completely missed the second generation

[@Xel_games]

Yeah, honestly. Because takara tomy is marketing them TO Adults. They're ads have adults using them... like i don't know why people think there is so such thing as "childrens's toys" there are only toys. This is a hobby though. Like it's literally a hobbie game. Like magic the gathering or D&D... it should be treated as such rather than trying "validate" liking them as adults...

So I’m a submariner and on a recent underway, one of my buddies and I decided to pick up a few boxes of beyblades and a couple arenas to make a tournament for some moral boosting. When I tell you I was lambasted by the upper chain of command for doing something so “childish” I almost cancelled it. But I held on and still brought it with me. To say it was a MASSIVE hit was an understatement. The very same people who were shitting on the idea ended up participating and we all had so much fun with it.

I remember being a kid with the first gen beyblades. I made a terrifying discovery, the orange top with the spring on the bottom had a weird middle segment, and I managed to put 3 weight disks on it. After locking the spring in the "retracted" position I had a top with over twice the weight of the competition, and dominated middle school recess.

[@NEKOplaysgamez]

16:15 just FYI, actually the string launcher has a bit less power/resistance than the big ripcord bcuz it has a lower gear ratio. This lower resistance can help to keep your launcher holding hand more stable for better control. And if you need more power from a string launcher you should focus more on whipping out the string with higher speed rather than just pulling with more power like you can on the ripcord launcher.

[@DanganRanger]

Thanks for the advice!

[@sirsire13]

@@blueblonko he literally said that already

[@JA_Industries.]

One thing to note is, that while there is a power difference, the difference can be overmatched by practicing how to launch harder with string. Generally with string launchers, you essentially have to work on maximizing as much energy as you can into the draw length of the string. One thing I’d recommend doing is, no beyblade practice launching reps, and also doing reps with a beyblade too. Because there is a lot of muscle memory involved into maximizing the potential of the string launcher. Also one thing to note, there is a good chance that there is less of a gap in power between the Hasbro string launcher and the TT/pro ripcord/winder launcher. As a lot of the Hasbro string launchers seem to have a longer string.

[@JA_Industries.]

@@DanganRangerI’d also put some emphasis into practicing positioning, angles, and movement.

[@unclaimedusername6608]

In 3.5, there was a psionic class that fought using a large psycrystal. Bet you can guess how RP'd that. I had gotten into Burst just as it ended. The burst mechanic, and the clicks that leads to them, intrigued me because "they added a hp system to beyblade" sold me. I bought some, quickly learned that COUNTERFEIT beyblades weren't just a thing but a common occurrence, and ended up researching where to buy legit ones (also the difference between the western and eastern versions). Afterwards X started rolling out and...I didn't want to spend even more money on imports. Thirty dollars a beyblade wasn't a lot, but it kinda was (ignoring that the one I really wanted, Roar Bahamut, was RIDICULOUSLY expensive). When I learned that X was coming to the states And that they were supposedly not going to gimp the designs like they did with burst, I was excited. I now own seven of the little dudes and am looking back at the jp market to get ones that aren't out here yet. I'm hooked!

[@samudec5134]

idk how it is for the US, but for us in France (we got the physical releases a month ago as exclusives to 1 store and will officially get wave 1 on the 15th), import is not much more expensive than in store if you take several at once on amazon jp. For reference, the regular prices are cheaper (starters are 13e and boosters are 10e, vs ~10e for starters and 7.3e for boosters on amazon jp) and alone there's like 17e of shipping, but the shipping doesn't go up much as long as you take small things (it's like 21e for 3 beys, or 7e/bey, which still makes it 30 to 40% more expensive, but far from ending up at 30e/bey)

I got back into beyblade during burst, when i saw the japanese ones remade Dragoon v2 (my favorite as a kid), and after having it, i fell down the rabbit hole and have continued that until now. Now I own an old Golden Ultimate Valkyrie (as of writing worth around $200), and Cobalt Drake (around the same price) as well as a fairly large assortment more. It's honestly a blast, and as a shelf item they take up relatively little space as a whole, so I don't need a million binders like I used to for Yugioh/Pokemon TCGs. Great video, I hope more people make the leap to Beyblade and see just how fun and strategic it actually is.

I was too young to experience the plastic generation, but I was HEAVILY invested in Metal Fight. Burst was fun for the first couple of seasons from Hasbro, but when they drastically changed the formula for the 3rd season, I just stopped caring as much, and stopped buying Burst beys altogether after the 4th season. I’m thinking about investing in X, but I don’t have anyone to play with. Keep being the big fan of Beyblades you are, and I promise I will be as well! 😊

I have this feeling that this generation is made by people who loved the game while they were kids and grew up wanting to share the experience to the newer generation. It also feels like they want to bring back all those who grew up with the game but was unable carry their hobby forward with them for whatever reason and let them know that they are seen and appreciated.

My two younger cousins brought over their starter set today, and I was blown away. I only played with the original plastic generation Beyblades from the OG to the Engine Gear and MS era. But I have to say, this generation of Beyblades is by far the best. The battles are far more intense and unpredictable, the Beyblades have an OG style back with some proper combinations from Metal Fight and Burst, and the concept of X gets rid of one of the biggest problems I've found with previous eras (that is, the heaviest Beyblades that can stay in the center almost always won). Now with the X-elarator rail and the new point system format, that big problem is long gone! Honestly, I'm tempted to get back into it, but I'd likely be the only one in my area that would do that... So... I'll still think about it, I guess...

Not gonna lie, this makes me wanna play Beyblade.

I also like that they seem pretty portable, I've seen tournaments at fighting game tournaments, and I like that it seems like the Beyblade fandom is in on the joke. Like it's as much a punchline as it is a hobby. Though I JUST remembered that Spin Fighters had Street Fighter licensed tops and I know Beyblade has Transformers Beys...so now I can't stop thinking about the potential for a Beyblade VS Capcom!

My childhood Beyblade combo was so unbeatable, it got banned. It was a mix of my first one, a turtle one with a heavy metal hexagonal disk, and that weird Dragoon model that almost looks like a pogo stick. If it retained stabilty (which it did 90%of the time), it would just stand there, begging to jam up any other beyblade while the metal disk gyroscopically assisted in keeping it inertia when getting impacted by the opponents Beyblade.

The plastic gen remakes tend to be the lightest, so best to play within a weight class if you want to use those

[@angusyoung119]

@@ValTek_Armory it would be for nostalgia, not competitiveness. And an easy way to bring back the older fans imho

Honestly I related to your story immediately. I grew up in a village in Scotland where football is basically everything, so me growing up with an interest in things like yugioh, and beyblade pretty much doomed me into solitude. My mum and dad would play with me at home, so i was very thankful for that, but i never really had a group of friends to Beyblade with

[@DanganRanger]

It can be tough being the nerdy kid, much love to you for having to go through it as well.

[@CosmicMangoMTG]

Great video 😊

[@quexxlp2451]

Love your attitude bro

[@kinilas]

I got really into beyblades for like a week in college and it was so much fun, but my friends moved on to yugioh and I can't get anybody else to jump into beyblade. Building beys was so much fun.

Thanks for this video, I didn't know about Beyblade X until watching 🤯

[@Icyskittlez457]

as a 16yo i did NOT click off this video 🚫🙅 -Good vid man 😭

[@TaelAlchemist]

I always wanted to have real beyblades as a kid/teen, but only got the bootleg ones which were really crappy and broke if they crashed into another beyblade, because the original one were a bit too expensive for us. Still had great memories of watching others playing with their originals in the schoolyard. I love that beyblade still exists with a decently sized community. Keep enjoying your hobby!

[@kephrian]

Me as an adult is now going to buy a bunch of these, they didnt really catch on where i grew up

[@jettesides420]

Being an old man, I find this topic dumb. But, also being a parent to a kid around this period, and I was once a young teen myself. I find this topic very nostalgic and informative. Great video, subbed. We have a ton of Beys and even Bakugan decks. I was more of a Magic the Gathering kid personally. His generation is different from ours. Its all about having fun in the end. Great retrospective buddy!

[@ethanleslie588]

I'm twenty years old and I still play with beyblades because it's fun it's a stress reliever

[@RedstonePyroMan]

I was crazy for beyblade in 04-05. There was a lot of noise online about the 25th anniversary of the original series too. It was emotional seeing the original vocalist of the Beyblade US theme perform again in an anniversary concert. I'm glad other people feel the same way!

[@lupevega7840]

AMAZING CONTENT BRO! i shared this video in all the beyblade x chats im in 🔥🔥

[@DanganRanger]

Much appreciated, glad to be of entertainment!

[@himomhey3437]

I was an avid metal fusion saga blader, and was bashing the new beyblade x. Then I tried the new gen, and it really is awesome and has more intense battles.

[@jerryb216]

I called my girlfriend bayblade as a pet name once and it was the greatest decision of my life

[@RetroAlex125]

Tip, you should adjust your launcher strength when using an attack type, try slightly launching weaker, this would reduce the chance of self KO

ITS TIME TO RETURN AFTER 20 YEARS BABY

[@Alluxuss]

As someone who is gen z and watched a lot of beyblade burst when it came out I think it might be fun to try it out again

[@yucatansuckaman5726]

That intro hurt my soul bro, ID PLAY BEYBLADE IN THE DORM WITH YOU! 😰😰😰😰😞😞😞😞

Dayym bro after 20yrs the bays are back

The new beys feel much higher quality than before and targeted torwards adults
