Went 3-3 at the local this week, barely pushed out of top 8 by a scuffed final match. Saber on Wedge definitely feels like a solid build; all I need now is to refine launch technique and sort out my third blade #beyblade #beybladex

I ended up going 2-4. May be time to face the music on Saber with how it has consistently been the weak part of my decks, but I was really happy with Cobalt Dragoon on Vortex and Samurai Calibur on Low Orb; I might try making Calibur even lower with 4-55 next time I compete #beyblade #beybladex

Went to my first Beyblade X local today! I placed 2-4, which is better than I was worried I'd do. Fox Brush was frankly a bit underwhelming, and I think I could've done better if I'd committed to two attack and one defense instead. I'm looking forward to my next one!

And the carnage report

It's springtime, and since I don't have soil to repot my ficus ginseng in, I'm just doing branch work today. The leftmost branches could maybe be brought back in line with the canopy edge, but I want those branches to get a bit stronger, so I'll let them grow mostly uncut this year. #bonsai

Found a Beat Tyranno while running errands, and after playing five matches with it, I can conclude that Quake is one of the beyblade bits of all time. Scored only one point, and I'm not even sure how it managed to get a spin finish with how unbalanced the BT blade is combined with Quake's shape.

My juniper bonsai that I got earlier this year started turning brown in the back suddenly last week, so I decided to trim off all the dead growth and hopefully help it conserve energy for the living branches
