About this deal

Continuing the trend of re-released highly competitive parts in this single box is the 0 Armor. This Armor has been a staple since B-188, just like the Over Disc. It has a great weight, great weight distribution, and bolsters Stamina combos’ ability to stay stable for longer. The original Atomic Driver is known to have two different mold variations, informally known as “big ball” Atomic and “small ball” Atomic. The names mean exactly what they sound like: some Atomic Drivers have a smaller free-spinning ball than others. It is a little bit disappointing to see that they did not carry over the spring-loaded mechanic of the Valkyrie DB Core considering that this is supposed to be “Ultimate” Valkyrie. And also that they decided against making the middle silver piece modeled after the Strike God Chip metal rather than plastic, which would have been both more accurate to the source material and been the first DB Core to have a fully centralized metal weight. The Belial DB Core isn’t know to be a stamina powerhouse, but because it was one of the first DB Cores, is relatively well balanced, and has decent burst resistance in comparison to the Ragnaruk DB Core that was released alongside it, it has sometimes felt like the “generic” DB Core players can use on just about anything. It’s inoffensive, ultimately. Not bad, not great. Unlike many of the other re-released components here, the 0 Armor has not been released with high frequency over the course of DB’s lifetime. Once in B-188, and then just once again in B-194’s Random Booster with Astral Fafnir Karma Venture-0.

B-195 Prominence Valkyrie Over Atomic Dash-0 is the first standalone release of 2022, but surprisingly enough it seems to match the same energy of Random Booster Volume 27: a catchup DB release. However, this is misleading for a number of a reasons. As always, the sample size is small and is meant to merely give an impression rather than a definitive assessment of performance. The B-191 Overdrive Special Starter Set features eight brand new parts, a powerful new launcher, and several other useful parts to bolster your Beyblade Burst Dynamite Battle collection.

Customer reviews

Compared to Savior, where Nexus (S Gear) Disk doesn’t tend to bring its one-shot potential any further, it was great to have the Disk perfectly complement a Blade. It was also great to not have to need Belial 2 DB Core to prevent Bursting, as the Savior Blade frequently Bursted on other DB Core options, especially if they were worn down.

The above list is obviously not comprehensive, but at the end of the day Atomic’ finds itself in a middling position on average among other competitive Drivers, forcing its usage to be limited in the standard Burst Format.Finally, as the direct successor to the Savior Blade from B-187 Savior Valkyrie Shot-7, Ultimate’s three huge red rubber blades were inspired by the inclusion of rubber blades on Savior. Although, the rubber is much harder than Savior’s. Zone’+Z though, as we demonstrated in our review of Guilty Longinus Karma Metal Destroy-2 and as was apparent again during the tests conducted for this article, has superior defensive capability in comparison to common stamina type Drivers like Bearing and High Xtend+’ thanks to the weight of the +Z Chip. Three of Guilty’s four KOs against Zn’+Z came in the final three rounds of testing only after I had improved my shot and positioning; in a tournament environment you might not get that chance. An exception to this for the standard Burst Format might be in multiple Beyblade formats such as 3on3 or 5G especially where you can sometimes get away with more specialized combos more easily. And to be fair, even the Driver Atomic’ has the most trouble with–High Xtend+’–has trouble staying in the stadium using high RPM launchers like the Full Custom BeyLauncher LR, and also has poorer defense, so it is possible that you could thread the needle and find a place for Atomic’ in certain situations.

Heads up: If you buy something through Mall of Toys, you won’t pay any extra, but I’ll get a small commission. This helps me keep things running. Thanks for your support! Atomic’ Driver Review

One of the other reasons for Atomic’s decrease in usage as of late was the release of Beyblade Burst Dynamite Battle. Because Beyblades from that season sit at a lower height on Drivers than all previous seasons, this changes how they perform on certain parts. The Atomic Dash Driver is an upgraded version of the original Atomic Driver with a stronger spring, which increases burst resistance. This solves one of the weaknesses intentionally built into the design of the original Atomic Driver. The reason is because there is only one new part included: the Atomic Dash Driver. In this article we will review it in-depth and give an overview of where the other great parts being re-released in this booster shine. The Valkyrie DB Core tends to have slightly softer teeth compared to other options, and dealing huge beatings on aggressive Blades will only make this fact more pronounced. For those of you who initially only used it on the Savior Blade, you will understand what we mean. The Ultimate Blade is in a bit of an unusual situation. On one hand, compared to Savior Blade it has better balance, is less likely to Burst, and can also be put on plastic tips with some degree of success. On the other hand, Ultimate Blade doesn’t have the same raw strength that Savior Blade has on its own.
