cards

Snakey is the first blader Gideon hands the Magtram to, the magnetic system Doctor B built to bend a dish to its user's advantage, and his job is to test it on Tyson. He blades the steel-cutting Sabel Cobra and its Metal Cutter move, and beats a run of test opponents before Dragoon ends it decisively. It is the first time the Bladebreakers meet engineered cheating rather than a better opponent, and the confiscated blade is taken apart afterwards. Gideon only ever wanted footage of Dragoon's power, and drops him immediately: a sneering, snake-themed hireling with no bit-beast, remembered for the gimmick rather than the blading.

Story by season

Where the seasons take them

Beyblade V-Force (2002)

Team Psykick (hired blader)

Handed the Magtram first among Gideon's roster, he's sent to grind down Tyson with Sabel Cobra's Metal Cutter, and the magnetized dish does its job for a while — Tyson can't get traction against it until Kai talks him through calling out Dragoon. Once Dragoon actually comes out, the fight ends fast, and the confiscated blade ends up in Kenny's hands afterward, picked apart to figure out how the cheat worked in the first place. His own bosses barely notice the loss: Slim and Fatso already have the footage of Dragoon they were sent for, and Gideon cuts him loose the moment the tape is in hand.
