01Description
This review covers the part Flame
It is divided into three sections representing Cerberus’ three heads, connected by a plastic piece that simulates its chains. Its silhouette is almost completely circular and smoothed out, with only three clearly defined hooks on the upper front of each section. On the underside, the Blade pushes weight toward the edges through cutouts in each segment, aiming to increase centrifugal force and improve stamina, reaching an average BX/UX level, which is decent for a CX. At 30.2 grams, it is one of the lightest Main Blades.
02Performance
This review covers the part Flame
Flame is a simple Blade that’s easy to understand. Its rounded shape and low recoil allow it to absorb aggressive hits super well. This also prevents equalization or energy stealing from left-spin Beyblades, especially when paired with similarly rounded Assist Blades, giving it solid defensive and anti-equalization potential.
Its upper hooks, while not strong enough to fully commit to a pure attack style, can still land critical hits if they connect. In low setups or with strong tilt, you can expose them more often, turning them into a constant threat.
Its biggest weakness is against very round, high-stamina Beyblades that its hooks cannot reliably damage, and it also lacks the stamina to outlast them. Another downside is its relative lightness. Compared to BX/UX it’s not lighter, but at CX heights it becomes easy to push and prone to K.O.s. Because of this, you must avoid launching it fully upright against heavy attackers, or it will get sent flying fast.
For that reason, it needs strong support from the Assist and Ratchet to improve lower weight and stability, preferably at mid or mid-low heights so the whole perimeter can work. The Bit should allow early tilt for attacking or evading, then stand upright later so its smooth shape can maximize defense once the opponent’s strongest hits are gone, reducing ring-out risk. This gives you control over how much you expose its critical points depending on the matchup.
Overall, it benefits from Bits that provide semi-aggressive movement with good upright posture, letting it defend against attackers, counter with its sharp points, pressure stationary types, and avoid left-spin equalization.
03Ways to use it
This review covers the part Flame
At mid-low heights, with wide Bits that offer controlled movement like Level or Elevate. This lets you choose between circling the stadium to evade, going straight for contact, tilting to counter direct hits, and finishing battles upright to maximize defense and improve end-game spin against left spins.
