About Beyblade

1

The only BEYBLADE (hereafter referred to as "Bey") that can be used is the BEYBLADE X series, which was officially released and distributed in your own country from July 2023. No previous Beys, launchers, stadiums, or tools may be used.

2

All decisions regarding Bey checks and battle outcomes must be followed according to the judge's rulings.

3

Any unauthorized modifications or actions deemed intentional cheating may result in disqualification.

Regarding Beyblade Checks

1

Only official Beyblade X series parts are allowed for customization.

2

You cannot omit parts or assemble them in unintended ways.

3

Disassembling or modifying official Bey parts is prohibited.

Prohibited Modifications

  • Any changes that affect performance
  • Anything that could damage opponent's Bey or stadium
  • Coating contact areas or launcher contact points
  • Content that violates intellectual property rights
  • Content that goes against public order and morals
4

Parts with altered or enhanced performance are not allowed.

5

After presenting your Bey, you cannot change it unless the judge allows it. If changes are permitted, both players may exchange their Beys.

Regarding Launcher Checks (including grip, etc.)

1

Omitting parts that should be used, or combining parts in ways other than their intended use, is prohibited.

2

The use of "disassembled" or "modified" official parts such as launchers and grips is prohibited.

3

The use of parts whose original performance has been altered or enhanced is prohibited.

4

If the judge determines that the launcher, grip, or any other parts have been modified or are defective, the use of those parts will be prohibited.

Regarding the Stadium

1

Only stadiums from the "Beyblade X" series can be used.

2

A stadium consists of the stadium body and the stadium cover.

3

The shoot area refers to the hole in the center of the stadium cover.

4

The Xtreme Line refers to the rail parts fixed to the stadium body.

Regarding the Xtreme Stadium

1

The Over Zone refers to the two pockets located at the front left and right of the Xtreme Stadium.

2

The Xtreme Zone refers to the hole located at the center front of the Xtreme Stadium.

3

The Battle Zone refers to the parts of the Xtreme Stadium body other than the Over Zone and Xtreme Zone.

Regarding the Wide Xtreme Stadium

1

The Over Zone refers to the hole located at the center front of the Wide Xtreme Stadium.

2

The Xtreme Zone refers to the two holes located at the back left and right of the Wide Xtreme Stadium.

3

The Battle Zone refers to the parts of the Wide Xtreme Stadium body other than the Over Zone and Xtreme Zone.

Shooting Method

1

When launching your Bey, shoot from a height of 20 cm or less above the stadium body.

2

It is prohibited to obstruct the opponent's launch with your launch stance or any other means. Under no circumstances should a player's body, launcher, decorations, etc., touch the stadium during the launch.

3

Decide the shoot position (left position, right position, center position) by a fair means such as rock-paper-scissors. The chosen shoot position cannot be changed during that match.

4

Shoot with the call "Three, Two, One, Go Shoot".

5

Shoot your Bey so that it passes through the shoot area.

6

When the judge calls "Three, Two, One, Go Shoot", launch your Bey during the call of "Shoot".

7

Do not shoot your Bey while keeping it grounded in the stadium.

Regarding Battle

1

After shooting, step back one step.

2

Do not peer into the stadium.

3

These are considered shooting errors:

  • Bey doesn't detach from launcher during shoot
  • Bey falls off after "Three, two, one, go shoot" call
  • Bey is shot outside the shoot area and touches stadium exterior
4

Shooting before "shoot" is a premature launch. Shooting after the call is a delayed launch.

5

Judges will determine shooting errors and caution players accordingly.

6

Battle begins when all Beys pass through the shoot area and touch the stadium. If Beys collide in air or parts come off before touching stadium, the battle restarts.

7

Ask questions immediately. Opinions after the next battle starts or from non-players will not be accepted.

8

Do not touch the stadium or Beys until the judge gives permission.

9

If the judge determines dangerous play or unfair conditions, the battle will stop and restart.

Regarding Battle Results

1

The Bey that continues to spin in the battle zone longer than the opponent's Bey wins.

2

Decisions regarding outcomes and finishing moves must follow the judge's rulings.

Scoring System

If the battle starts without any shooting errors, premature launches, or delayed launches, points are awarded based on the following finishing moves. The first to earn 4 points wins the match.

Finishing Move Points Earned
Xtreme Finish 3 Points
Over Finish 2 Points
Burst Finish 2 Points
Spin Finish 1 Point

Reversal Rule

It is considered as a Reverse if the entire Bey, after entering the Xtreme zone or over zone or after leaving the stadium once, returns to the battle zone while maintaining its rotation. In this case, the Xtreme finish, over finish, or restart is canceled, and the battle continues.

Important Example:

If a Bey exits from the Over Zone or Xtreme Zone pocket but returns to the battle zone spinning face down (with the tip/bit facing upward), this is considered an invalid reversal. The finishing move (Over Finish or Xtreme Finish) will be awarded, and the battle ends.

For a reversal to be valid, the Bey must return to the battle zone while maintaining its proper spinning orientation (tip/bit facing downward).

Beyblade X Davao Tournament Rules

Note: The following rules are specific to the Beyblade X Davao Tournaments and may modify or supplement the standard Beyblade X Regulations. These custom rules take precedence over the standard regulations for this event.

1. Deck Lock-in

• Decks are locked from the first round of Swiss until the finals.

• Deck boxes must be left on a designated area to prevent part changes.

• Players can only take their deck box when called for a match and must return it to the table after the match.

• Deck box is not required but is highly encouraged. Players can use paper bags, cardboard boxes, or anything that can hold their beyblades so it does not mix up with another player's deck.

2. Contesting a Judge's Decision

• Judges will notify players of any checks (e.g., aerial collision, early/late launch) at the start of a match.

• Players can only contest a decision during the battle before the result is declared. If a battle ends too quickly to contest, the judge will review and make a decision.

• The judge's decision is final, but players can request a second opinion from the Head Judge if unsatisfied provided that the player notified the judge to request for a review before a result has been made.

• During the review period, players are not allowed to view any footage while the judge has not made a decision.

• Judges must not tell the Head Judge their judgment so the Head Judge can make their own independent decision based on the footage.

3. Part Changing

• Players caught changing parts during the tournament will be disqualified.

Part changes are allowed only if:

  • The replacement part is identical (e.g., swapping 1-60 from one Beyblade for another 1-60).
  • An official is informed and verifies the replacement part.
  • If a part has been destroyed or damaged and is deemed unusable during battle, we will consider changing parts. If the player cannot provide such parts, or the community could not provide the damaged part, we will consider allowing the player changing their whole bey as long as both parties agree and judge agrees.

4. Double Entry Deck Rules

• Each deck must consist of 6 Beyblades with no repeating parts across both decks.

• Players must submit their deck lists before the tournament for verification.

• If repeating parts are discovered during the tournament, the player will be disqualified.

5. Double Entry Matchup

• We will ensure that no double entry matches up on Round 1.

• If both of a player's entries are matched against each other, the player can choose which entry receives a 4-0 score.

6. No Show Policy

• If a player is called and does not show up:

  • The next match will proceed, and the matchup will be queued for the last match.

If the player is absent:

  • Round 1: The present player wins 4-0.
  • Round 2: The absent player is converted to a Bye, and the present player wins 4-3.
  • Round 3 and beyond: The present player will be given a score of 4-0.

7. Tournament Setup

• The tournament will use Challonge with a 2-stage format:

  • Group Stage: 6 rounds of Swiss.
  • Final Stage: Top 16/24/32 single elimination.

• If there's an odd number of participants, a Bye player will be added. Matches against the Bye player will result in a 4-3 score.

8. Tournament Tie Breakers

Tiebreakers will be decided in this order:

  1. Point Difference: Higher difference (e.g., 4-0 = 4pts, 4-3 = 1pt, 4-2 = 2pts...) ranks higher.
  2. Points Scored: Total points across all rounds (e.g., 4-0 in 6 rounds = 24 points).
  3. Buchholz System: Ranks players based on their opponents' strength and performance.

9. Score Submission Procedure

• The winning player must collect both players' decks and submit them to the scorer.

• When submitting match results, players must clearly indicate:

  • Their entry number (as indicated on their deck box)
  • Their name
  • The final score

• Players should confirm with the scorer that the entered results are correct and may request to verify the inputted score before leaving to ensure accuracy.
