- This article is about the Takara Tomy version. For the Hasbro version, see Blade - Roar (Hasbro).
Roar (ロア, Roa) is a Blade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Dynamite Battle Layer System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-186 Random Booster Vol. 26 on June 26th, 2021.
Description
Takara Tomy's Roar is a left-spin Defense Type Blade with a gimmick similar to its predecessors in the "Bahamut" Layer line. As the Roar combination begins to lose "clicks" and progresses through the Lock towards Bursting, two protrusions are pushed outwards, changing Roar's initial elliptical shape into a rounder circular shape. In practice, the useful circular shape cannot be consistently used. Despite its Defense Type classification, Roar does not perform particularly well in Defense combinations, instead being used in Stamina combinations. Roar has generally worse Same-Spin Stamina than Vanish, with moderate Opposite-Spin Stamina performance. Roar is best used on wide Opposite-Spin Stamina Drivers such as Drift.
Overall
Roar is outclassed by Vanish in both Defense and Stamina combinations.
As such, Takara Tomy's Roar is not recommended for the WBO's Burst format.
Takara Tomy's Roar is not legal in the WBO's Burst GT format.
Takara Tomy's Roar is not legal in the WBO's Burst Limited format.
