Performance Tip - Yielding

Yielding is a Performance Tip released as part of the Burst System. It debuted with the release of the B-49 Random Booster Vol. 3 Yeager Yggdrasil Gravity Yielding on July 16th, 2016.

Description
Yielding features a cone shaped tip made of polyoxymethylene (POM) thermoplastic rather than traditional plastic, akin to Metal Fight Beyblade's Polish Defense. Yielding's gimmick is that the POM plastic has less friction against the stadium floor than traditional plastic, increasing a combination's stamina. Embossed into the top of the Performance Tip is a stylized Y for easy differentiation.

Due to the lowered friction, Yielding yields high amounts of stamina and procession time, however this low friction also brings lowered Knock-Out resistance, stability and suffer further from recoil. The stability issue is further exacerbated by the angle of the cone; unlike Metal Fight Beyblade's Defense Tip, the angle of Yielding is more acute, akin to Big Wide Defense, causing an increase in the risk of floor scraps. It is possible to improve the stability somewhat by wearing down the tip, however the low friction means that this takes time.

The advantage Yielding has over other Performance Tips such as Revolve and Defense is greater Burst resistance as the low friction means that there is less force to be taken by the teeth or slopes of a Layer.

Use in Stamina Customizations
Due to Yielding 's high stamina, it can be used in the combination Deathscyther/Chaos Gravity/Knuckle/Heavy/Ring/Armed/Spread Yielding. The greater Burst resistance Yielding provides can compensate for the poor teeth of Deathscyther/Chaos, that makes this combo resistant to Stationary Attack combinations such as Valkyrie Heavy Revolve.

Use in Stationary Attack Customizations
In the Stationary Attack customization Valkyrie Heavy/Gravity/Knuckle/Spread/Armed Yielding, Yielding 's low friction can prevent self Bursts from the recoil heavy Valkyrie. If used in a Banking Launch, the procession of Yielding can allow this combo to dodge Mobile Attack combinations.

Use in Defense/Stamina Hybrid Customizations
When paired with Dark Deathscyther, the boost in Burst Resistance can be used to overcome the Layer's primary counters such as Minoboros. In addition, the low recoil of Dark Deathscyther and its ability to destabilize opponents makes it a very safe choice in tournaments.

Overall
Due to Yielding 's high stamina and Burst resistance, it has found great use in many combinations such as Stationary Attack, Stamina and Balance. However, due to Revolve outclassing Yielding in stamina and the stability issues present in Yielding, this part is not a must have.

Instead it is a welcome addition to any blader's collection.
