Death Diabolos 4Turn Merge' 1D (デスディアボロス・フォーターン・マージ・1D, Desu Diaborosu Fō Tān Māji 1D) is a Balance Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Superking Layer System. It was released in Japan on July 23rd, 2020 for 1100円 as one of two prize Beyblades in Random Booster Vol. 21.
It is the successor to Master Diabolos Generate and is the right-spinning counterpart of Abyss Diabolos 5 Fusion' 1S.
Superking Chip - Diabolos
- Main article: Superking Chip - Diabolos
Takara Tomy's Diabolos is a dual-spin Superking Chip that features a dragon head and claws representing the Gatinko Chip's namesake, a demonic dragon. Due to the dual-spin mechanism, Diabolos is not compatible with a Metal Chip Core; instead, a metal Chip Core is integrated into its design. Diabolos, along with Spriggan, can be used with any Ring. Diabolos and Spriggan are best used with the dual-spin World Ring, as the spin direction of World can be switched to better perform against the opponent.

In-depth information for Takara Tomy's Death Ring will be placed here once drafting has been completed for it. Please be patient.
Chassis - 1D
- Main article: Chassis - 1D
1D or 1-Defense is a dual-spin Defense Type Single Chassis with a blocky perimeter. As a Single Chassis, 1D, along with a Superking Chip and Ring, completes a Superking Layer that can be used with a Disc. 1D is the worst of the three available Single Chassis (the others being 1S and 4A), as it has poor Weight Distribution, poor Life-After-Death, and weighs two-thirds of the weight of 1S.
Forge Disc - 4
- Main article: Forge Disc - 4
4, like other even numbered Core Discs, is symmetrical and elliptical in shape in order to facilitate a Disc Frame. Each side features two protrusions, one molded into the shape of a "4" and the other molded into the shape of the Roman Numeral "IV". The protrusions extend further from the center more than other Core Discs which grants 4 high Outward Weight Distribution (OWD) and subsequent Stamina potential. As a Core Disc, 4 is comparatively heavier than regular Forge Discs such as Heavy and Gravity which grants higher Knock-Out Resistance and the ability to facilitate Disc Frames can add characteristics such as Life-After-Death with Cross or Glaive. While 7 has greater Stamina, 4's Stamina is still comparable.
Disc Frame - Turn
- Main article: Disc Frame - Turn
Turn features a gimmick similar to Lift, which has a “Defense Mode” which which is meant to parry hits from the opponent and reduce recoil during Disc-to-Layer contact and an “Attack Mode” which is meant to increase Burst Attack during Disc-to-Layer contact. However, due to most Burst Performance Tips being of the same or very similar heights, such contact is rare. Despite the ineffective gimmick, Turn is one of the heaviest frames, heavier than Lift and Bump but lighter than Wall, which grants high attack potential without the scrape risk when paired with heavy discs such as 0.
Performance Tip - Merge'
- Main article: Performance Tip - Merge'
Merge', like its predecessor Merge, features a six pointed flat rubber tip with a sharp plastic tip in the center, that sits at the standard height. Like its predecessors Unite and Merge, when launched straight down into the stadium, the sharp tip in the center will keep the Beyblade stable and still in the center, preventing Stamina loss.
When a mint condition Merge' is either knocked off balance by an opponent or launched at an angle, the rubber will make contact with the stadium, creating an aggressive movement pattern with speeds exceeding Xtreme due to the increased surface area created by the six points. However this aggressive movement is somewhat unreliable as the sharp center can slow it down in the center of the stadium or stop the movement entirely and the greater surface area cripples Stamina.
When worn however, instead of creating aggressive movement when struck, the rubber will instead act as brakes against a Knock-Out, at the cost of Stamina, before going back to stable from the sharp center.
Unlike its predecessor, Merge' features a much thicker spring in its locking mechanism, increasing Merge''s Burst Resistance.
