'''Forneus F4''', known as {{Translation|'''Emperor Forneus'''|エンペラーフォルネウス|Enperā Foruneusu}} in Japan, is an [[Energy Layer]] released as part of the [[Burst System]] as well as the [[Cho-Z Layer System]]. It debuted with the release of the B-106 Booster [[Forneus F4 0 Yard|Emperor Forneus 0 Yard]] on March 17th, 2018. It later debuted in western countries with the release of the SlingShock Starter Pack [[Forneus F4 0 Yard-S]].

<onlyinclude>In-depth information for Hasbro’s '''Forneus F4''' Energy Layer will be placed here once drafting has been completed for it. Please be patient.</onlyinclude>
<onlyinclude>'''Forneus F4''' is a Defense Type Energy Layer, the center features two shark heads, meant to represent the Layer's Japanese namesake; a Great Marquis of Hell in demonology, the sea monster Forneus. '''Forneus F4''' features twelve counter-clockwise blades to create a round, low recoil shape, granting high Defense potential. As part of the Cho-Z Layer System, '''Emperor Forneus '''features metal in its design; in this case, in the shark details. The inclusion of metal makes '''Emperor Forneus '''heavier than most SwitchStrike/God Layers.
 
 
The placement of the metal improves Defense potential by not only increasing the weight but by creating a Centralized Weight Distribution which resists movement. However, the blades of '''Forneus F4''' are warped which creates recoil, akin to [[Energy Layer - Nepstrius N2|Nova Neptune]] or [[Energy Layer - Phantazus P2|Psychic Phantom]], and the Centralized Weight Distribution creates poor Stamina, though the warped blades can create Destabilization potential and the heavy weight and strong teeth of the Layer's Takara Tomy release more than compensate for the recoil.
 
 
Like many other Cho-Z Layers, '''Emperor Forneus''' is unbalanced which increases Burst risk and drains Stamina. However, these issues can be solved with the use of a Level Chip that fits underneath the Layer.</onlyinclude>
 
 
== Use in Defense Combinations ==
 
'''Emperor Forneus''' can be put to use in the Defense Combination '''Emperor Forneus''' [[Forge Disc - 0|0]]/[[Forge Disc - 2|2]]/[[Forge Disc - 4|4]]/[[Forge Disc - 5|5]]/[[Forge Disc - 7|7]]/[[Forge Disc - 10|10]] [[Disc Frame - Cross|Cross]]/[[Disc Frame - Glaive|Glaive]]/[[Disc Frame - Bump|Bump]] [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]]/[[Driver - Orbit|Orbit]]. The heavy weight, tall teeth and counter-clockwise blades of '''Emperor Forneus''' gives this Combination high KO and Burst resistance while the warping of the blades can also Destabilize the opponent. The heavy weight of [[Forge Disc - 0|0]]/[[Forge Disc - 2|2]]/[[Forge Disc - 4|4]]/[[Forge Disc - 5|5]]/[[Forge Disc - 7|7]]/[[Forge Disc - 10|10]] bolsters KO resistance and Stamina while [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]]/[[Driver - Orbit|Orbit]] can further bolster Stamina and KO resistance while [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]] specifically can add Life After Death along with [[Disc Frame - Cross|Cross]]/[[Disc Frame - Glaive|Glaive]].

To facilitate the gimmick of the SlingShock BeyStadiums, Hasbro's '''Forneus F4''' has its metal replaced with regular plastic, increasing its overall speed at the cost of halved weight and inertia. Aside from the removal of metal, it is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's [[Energy Layer - Emperor Forneus|Emperor Forneus]] with the same low-recoil design, Destabilization potential, and compatibility with [[Level Chips]]. Furthermore, it features sturdy slopes as well. While SwitchStrike Layers such as [[Energy Layer - Balkesh B3|Balkesh B3]] and [[Energy Layer - Spryzen Requiem S3|Spryzen Requiem S3]] make better choices for Defense Combinations, '''Forneus F4'''<nowiki/>'s sturdy slopes, low-recoil design and Destabilization potential makes it a great alternative if the aforementioned Layers are unavailable.
'''Emperor Forneus''' features heavy weight, a low recoil design and destabilization potential, which made it a once Top-Tier choice for Defense Combinations. However, with the release of [[Energy Layer - Hercules H4|Archer Hercules]], [[Energy Layer - Salamander S4|Hell Salamander]], and [[Energy Layer - Phoenix P4|Revive Phoenix]], '''Emperor Forneus''' has become outclassed.
 
   
'''As such, Emperor Forneus is not a must have but is instead a welcome addition to a blader's collection.'''
+
'''As such, Hasbro's Forneus F4 is recommended for collection purposes only if one has Balkesh B3 or Spryzen Requiem S3 and is a welcome addition if one does not.'''
 
== Differences in the Hasbro Version ==
 
Hasbro's '''Forneus F4''', unlike Takara Tomy's '''Emperor Forneus''', does not feature any metal, making it lighter than most SwitchStrike Layers. As a result of this, '''Forneus F4''' lags behind most SwitchStrike Layers such as [[Energy Layer - Balkesh B3|Balkesh B3]] and [[Energy Layer - Spryzen Requiem S3|Spryzen Requiem S3]].
 
 
'''As such, Forneus F4 is recommended for collection purposes only.'''

This article is about the Hasbro version. For the Takara Tomy version, see Energy Layer - Emperor Forneus.

Forneus F4 is an Energy Layer released by Hasbro as part of the Burst System as well as the SlingShock System. It debuted in western countries with the release of the SlingShock Starter Pack Forneus F4 0 Yard-S.

Description

In-depth information for Hasbro’s Forneus F4 Energy Layer will be placed here once drafting has been completed for it. Please be patient.

Overall

To facilitate the gimmick of the SlingShock BeyStadiums, Hasbro's Forneus F4 has its metal replaced with regular plastic, increasing its overall speed at the cost of halved weight and inertia. Aside from the removal of metal, it is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's Emperor Forneus with the same low-recoil design, Destabilization potential, and compatibility with Level Chips. Furthermore, it features sturdy slopes as well. While SwitchStrike Layers such as Balkesh B3 and Spryzen Requiem S3 make better choices for Defense Combinations, Forneus F4's sturdy slopes, low-recoil design and Destabilization potential makes it a great alternative if the aforementioned Layers are unavailable.

As such, Hasbro's Forneus F4 is recommended for collection purposes only if one has Balkesh B3 or Spryzen Requiem S3 and is a welcome addition if one does not.
