Chain Kerbeus Karma Moment'-3 (チェインケルベウス・カルマ・モーメントダッシュ-3, Chēn Kerubeusu Karuma Mōmento Dasshu-3) is a Defense Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Dynamite Battle Layer System and the Burst Ultimate Layer Series. It was released in Japan on October 22nd, 2022 for 6600円 as apart of the Beyblade Burst Ultimate All-in-One Set.
DB Core - Kerbeus
- Main article: DB Core - Kerbeus
Takara Tomy's Kerbeus is a right-spin DB Core that features three dog heads and a red chain, representing the DB Core's namesake, Kerberos, the three-headed guard dog of the Underworld from Greek mythology. Kerbeus has high Burst Resistance due to its gimmick: like the left-spin Bahamut DB Core, Kerbeus features a slope, akin to Hasbro Layers, instead of teeth, and a "Rubber Lock". The Rubber Lock gimmick consists of two rubber protrusions on either side, as well as in the center of the DB Core. The friction caused by the Rubber Lock protrusions creates resistance, making it more difficult for a combination to Burst.
Although Kerbeus does not have the "BU Lock" gimmick, the Rubber Lock interacts with the raised protrusions on the Disc tabs of the two BU Lock compatible DB Discs, Xanthus and Moon. This results in increased Burst Resistance that makes the combination very difficult to Burst. Due to mold variation, the two B-198 releases of Kerbeus feature the highest Stamina performance. Another notable feature of Kerbeus is its rounded perimeter, unlike the polygonal perimeter of all other DB Cores. This rounded perimeter is meant to interact with the Chain BU Blade's gimmick: when Kerbeus is used, the six movable chains of Chain are able to retract when struck by an opponent.
As Kerbeus has the highest Burst Resistance of all right-spin DB Cores, it is recommended in any combination, alongside the Belial 3 DB Core. Both DB Cores feature high Burst Resistance for different reasons - Kerbeus has a Rubber Lock while Belial 3 has a "BU Lock" and a "Burst Stopper".
BU Blade - Chain
- Main article: BU Blade - Chain
Takara Tomy's Chain is a right-spin Defense Type BU Blade with a round rugged shape featuring six retractable rubber chains and two plastic chains. When used with most DB Cores, the perimeter of the DB Core will push on the rubber chains, extending them outwards. When used with the Kerbeus DB Core, the round perimeter of Kerbeus allows the rubber chains to retract when struck, which in theory absorbs some of the impact. In practice the effect of this gimmick is negligible, and Chain combinations can still be Knocked Out by Attack combinations. It finds the most use in Opposite-Spin matchups such as those against Guilty combinations, but BU Blades such as Barricade perform better in this role.
Armor - 3
- Main article: Armor - 3
Takara Tomy's 3 is an Armor with three sides and small ridges between them. This three-sided design works well with three-sided Blades, finding use in Attack combinations. While the 9 Armor offers a similar shape and superior Stamina, 3 still provides high performance, and is a welcome option if 9 is unavailable.
Forge Disc - Karma
- Main article: Forge Disc - Karma
Karma is a DB Disc with ten upward sloping blades along its perimeter, meant to create Upper Force in left-spin and Down Force in right-spin. It is essentially the DB Disc version of Nine. In theory, the blades increase the grip of the Beyblade on the Stadium floor with Down Force and decrease the friction between the Beyblade and the Stadium floor with Upper Force. In practice however, the effect is negligible and the blades reduce the Life-After-Death (LAD) of Karma. Due to its shape and weight distribution, Karma works best in Attack combinations.
Performance Tip - Moment'
- Main article: Performance Tip - Moment'
Moment', like its predecessor Moment, is a Defense Type Driver that features a ball shaped tip surrounded by a downwards facing dish that free spins, similar to Guard. Unlike Guard, Moment''s dish can also tilt at an angle, in theory increasing Knock-Out (KO) Resistance. When hit, the tilting dish is intended to readjust itself to regain balance. If Moment' is balanced, it features performance that can go up against meta Performance Tips such as High Xtend+'. However, if Moment' is knocked off balance and unable to recover, it will Destabilize.
Like other Dash Performance Tips, Moment' features a stronger spring lock, increasing the Performance Tip's Burst Resistance.
