Yegdrion is an Energy Layer released by Hasbro as part of the Burst System. It debuted in western countries with the release of the Single Pack, Yegdrion Ring Edge.
Description
Hasbro's Yegdrion is a Stamina Type Energy Layer based on Takara Tomy's Yggdrasil. As such, it has the same square shape, with two dragon heads and two sloped blades meant to represent dragon claws. The blades make up the primary points of contact of this Layer. Most of the weight of Yegdrion is focused on its perimeter, creating superb Outward Weight Distribution (OWD) and high Stamina potential.
While its Takara Tomy counterpart suffered from weak Burst Resistance due to its four short teeth, Yegdrion has moderate slopes, giving it greater Burst Resistance and the ability to withstand its own recoil.
Overall
Hasbro's Yegdrion is too light to be competitive in the current metagame.
As such, Hasbro's Yegdrion is recommended for collection purposes only.
Despite its high Stamina potential, Hasbro's Yegdrion is too light to compete with other Layers in the format that are heavier.
As such, Hasbro's Yegdrion is recommended for collection purposes only.
Hasbro's Yegdrion features moderate slopes, giving it higher Burst Resistance than Takara Tomy's Yggdrasil and allowing the Layer to withstand its own recoil. However the slopes are weaker than those of Layers like Kerbeus, Atlas Anubion A2 and Jumbo Jormuntor J2 making it lag behind these Layers in terms of Burst Defense. The high Flywheel Effect produced by its Outward Weight Distribution makes it one of the best Layers available for Stamina Combinations in the format.
As such, Hasbro's Yegdrion is a must have for competitive bladers.Use in Stamina Combinations
Yegdrion can be put to use in the Stamina Combination Yegdrion 2/4/7 Glaive/Cross Orbit/Atomic. The high Stamina of 2/4/7 Glaive/Cross synergizes with Yegdrion's own and Orbit/Atomic further bolsters Stamina due to their low friction. This Combination is capable of Out-Spinning most of the popular Stamina/Defense Combinations but is highly vulnerable against Attack Combinations.
