About This Part
Sou is one of the lightest Weights made for the Burst System and Gatinko Layer System, shaped much like Metsu but trimmed down to just two hexagons, one per side, meant to centre a build's weight distribution. Takara Tomy debuted it in Japan on October 19th, 2019 with the B-151 Random Booster Vol. 17, and it reached the west through the Pro Series Starter Pack, Tact Lúinor 12Cross Trans' Sou.
In Play
The community rates Sou as underweight and outclassed even by lightly-used Weights such as Sen, Zan and Retsu, since it offers nothing better than pieces already in common rotation and its intended central balance has little practical effect; it is treated as collection-only, and it is not legal in either the WBO's Limited or Classic formats.
- Debuted in Japan on October 19th, 2019, with the B-151 Random Booster Vol. 17.
- Released in western countries through the Pro Series Starter Pack, Tact Lúinor 12Cross Trans' Sou.
