About This Part
Bahamut is a left-spin DB Core from Takara Tomy shaped around a dragon's head. Its "Rubber Lock" gimmick swaps out the usual teeth for rubber pads on either side and in the centre, and the friction they generate makes bursting noticeably harder; it also uses a sloped edge like a Hasbro-style Layer rather than conventional teeth. Even without a true BU Lock feature, those rubber pads still catch on the raised tabs of the BU Lock discs Xanthus and Moon, tightening resistance further.
In Play
The community rates Bahamut a must-have alongside Longinus for left-spin builds in the Burst format, since it posts the best burst resistance of any left-spin DB Core; players are advised to keep spares since the rubber pads wear down, and to reach for Bahamut over Longinus whenever resistance matters more than raw weight. It is barred from the GT, Limited, and Classic formats.
- Debuted in Japan on June 26th, 2021 with the B-186 Random Booster Vol. 26.
- Its dragon design departs from the fish named Bahamut in Arabic mythology, and may instead take a cue from the draconic deity Bahamut featured in Dungeons & Dragons.
