One of the four core classifications a Beyblade combo can carry, built around fast movement, hard-hitting collisions and weak endurance. Across generations these builds favour sharp or jagged contact shapes and flat-profile tips — rubber flat tips especially, in every era except Beyblade X — and they win primarily by knocking a rival clean out of the stadium or, once Beyblade Burst and Beyblade X added the Burst mechanic, by forcing a Burst Finish as a second path to victory. They tend to beat Stamina builds, which usually run low-grip tips that are easy to knock loose, but their own high recoil leaves them prone to self-knockouts and, in Burst-era play, self-Bursts unless the parts carrying them resist it well. In Beyblade X, these blades run heavier than their Defense and Stamina counterparts and pair with thicker-shafted bits built to survive the Xtreme Dash gimmick that only this classification fully exploits.
