EmperorMight
00EmperorMight summary
Might Emperor (EmperorMight by Takara Tomy) is a 45.1 g CX Blade, released in Japan on November 1, 2025.
EmperorMight is, without exaggeration, the salvation of the CX line.
Its metal chip is far more accessible than Valkyrie and crucial for many Main Blades, but Heavy is what truly unlocks the line’s potential. Might itself is solid, versatile, reliable, and honestly nice to look at with its waffle-like shape.
It is the true emperor of the CX line, allowing others to shine alongside it. This makes it a mandatory pickup for anyone who wants to play CX seriously. And thankfully, it is still fairly accessible, so owning at least two copies is a totally justified investment.
As a Bey, it fully lives up to its name: a powerful emperor that adapts to any playstyle, ready to lead the battle.
01Mythology
EmperorMight is inspired by the figure of the emperor, a word that comes from the Latin “Imperator”, meaning “the one who commands troops.” One of the most famous examples is Julius Caesar, who laid the foundations of the Roman Empire. An emperor’s role is to rule, command armies, establish laws, and stand as the highest authority.
02Description
This review covers the part Might
Might is one of the largest and heaviest Main Blades in the CX line. Its design pushes most of its weight toward the edges, making it the CX with the highest centrifugal force and best spin time in its line. It still falls short of top-tier UX/BX Blades, but compared to the average, it clearly stands out.
Its top is almost completely flat, and its perimeter is divided into eight symmetrical segments, creating subtle side ridges. Four of these segments expose moderately defined lower edges.
03Performance
This review covers the part Might
Might does not rely on a single contact point to function. Its greatest strength lies in its weight, diameter, and distribution, making it one of the most versatile CX Blades available.
In pure attack, its rounded shape does not scream knockout power. The lower edges can be tricky to connect cleanly, and the top lacks angles for a true Upper Attack. Still, its massive size and inertia allow it to push opponents through sheer force, making its attacks fairly consistent. That said, it needs to hit as upright as possible. When tilted, it redirects impacts and loses pushing power.
In aggressive playstyles, it benefits more from plastic chips, which grant better speed and freedom of movement, especially at mid heights like 60, where it can fully use its perimeter.
Defensively, it is excellent. Its weight, especially when paired with Heavy, turns it into a wall that is incredibly hard to move. It can over-tilt and absorb hits very efficiently. If it ends up sideways in a stationary battle, its side ridges can produce a light Barrage effect that drains the opponent’s stamina. Combined with its strong spin time, this gives it solid chances to win by endurance. It still struggles against dedicated stamina monsters like WizardRod or ClockMirage, but it stays surprisingly close.
Interestingly, in defensive and stamina-focused builds, the metal chip is not ideal, since balance and spin time matter more than extra central weight. Mid heights help with wear-down strategies, while lower heights maximize raw defense.
In semi-aggressive styles, it shines even more. It can defend while moving, chase like a walking wall, and even function as an anti-equalizer. Its diameter and centrifugal force allow it to win late-game spin against left-spin Beys fairly consistently.
It also works in counter-defense and counterattack styles, using the rail to return hits with strong force, or with Bits that allow rebounds and re-entry plays.
Ironically, in most testing, Might performs better without the metal chip. Emperor still has value in very specific setups where stamina is not a priority and control or maximum weight is the goal. Unlike other CX Blades, Might does not suffer much from head wobble, so Heavy alone is often enough to unlock its full potential. The Ratchet 9-60 is usually sufficient to achieve strong stability and spin time.
Its biggest weakness is its massive inertia. When it catches the rail, it can over-accelerate and lose control, situations where the metal chip can help contain it. Even with the inherent CX limitations, it remains one of the most complete, stable, and abusable Main Blades in the line. It is comparable to Blast, though Blast leans harder into attack, while Might favors defense and stamina.
04Ways to use it
This review covers the part Might
On flat Bits with good stamina, without going to extreme aggression. Focus on controlled pushes with enough time to catch the opponent. Plastic chips are preferred.
On Bits like Kick, using the metal chip to reduce loss of control. Riskier and stamina-heavy, but its weight can compensate with strong pushes.
On Bits that allow prolonged over-tilting. It can repel frontal attacks and, with slight initial movement, lift opponents like a ramp. The metal chip is not required here.
On smooth-moving Bits like Level or Elevate. Hard to dodge due to size, but capable of pushing through momentum. Plastic chips favor stamina, metal chips reduce knockout risk.
On small Bits with the metal chip, where slight imbalance creates unpredictable movement and stronger rebound reactions after hits.
On Bits like Point, using the rail to return hits. Plastic chips give more speed; metal chips help with control. Not its strongest role, but still viable.
With the metal chip and high-traction Bits like Ball or Hexa to become super hard to push, or with controlled-movement Bits like Jolt to act as a mobile wall.
05Base combo
Operate leaves it way too tall and unbalanced. It heavily reduces pushing power, stamina, and stability. It is easy to knock out and burst, completely failing to use any of the Blade’s strengths. This combo exists purely for fun or collection value and is not reliable at all.
06Combos
Pure, stable, easy-to-control attack. Any chip works, but Dran is used in honor of Jaxon from Team Persona.
Pure stamina with solid defensive traits. Very low and hard to knock out. Wizard is in honor of Multi, but any plastic chip works.
Aggressive Tank. Very controllable, versatile for dodging or chasing with good stamina. Any plastic chip can be used for more mobility.
Counter-defense with strong, unexpected rebounds. Launch hard and adjust tilt depending on the opponent.
Solid defense with strong traction and stamina. Slight initial movement helps with pushing. Hexa is a good alternative with lower stamina.
An excellent all-rounder. Attacks, evades, equalizes, and keeps solid stamina. Watch out for over-tilting, as Elevate can explode near the rail.
Rail-based counterattack. Emperor helps reduce the risk of self-KOs, but you can try any plastic Chips if you want speed and stamina. 1-60 boosts rebound from pockets while increasing impact power.
