<onlyinclude>'''Unicrest''' is primarily a circular Energy Layer, featuring ten small protrusions that point counter-clockwise. Eight of these protrusions make up the “manes” of the two unicorns depicted in the layer, leaving the other two as the “horns”. Because of its relatively large diameter and Outward Weight Distribution (OWD), '''Unicorn''' has [[Stamina]] capabilities rivaling those of [[Energy Layer - Nepstrius|Neptune]]. However, these traits also work against it by increasing the rotational recoil the Layer takes during collisions – as '''Unicorn'''’s teeth are shorter than average, it is relatively easy to Burst despite its unaggressive shape. Because of its tendency to Burst, '''Unicorn''' is directly outclassed by [[Energy Layer - Nepstrius|Neptune]], which has a similar amount of Stamina while also offering a higher amount of Burst Defense.</onlyinclude>

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

Overall

While Hasbro's Unicrest is identical in shape to Takara Tomy's Unicorn, it has been slightly altered, causing it to perform differently than its Takara Tomy counterpart. The most notable change is one that affects all of Hasbro’s Burst System releases: the use of a slope on the underside of the Layer to manage the Burst Mechanic rather than teeth. Unicrest's relatively steep slope means that it experiences a significant increase in Burst Defense compared to Unicorn, which made it a once top-tier Layer for Defense Combinations, however, due to the lighter materials used by Hasbro and the additional plastic added to the center of the Energy Layer, its Stamina has been lowered to create only average spin times. Furthermore, with the release of the SwitchStrike/God Layer System, specifically Fafnir F3 and Legend Spryzen S3, Unicrest has become too light to remain competitive.

As such, Hasbro's Unicrest is recommended for collection purposes only.
