Rage Longinus Destroy' 3A (レイジロンギヌス・デストロイダッシュ・3A, Reiji Ronginusu Desutoroi Dasshu 3A) is an Attack Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Superking Layer System. It was released as a Booster in Japan on June 27th, 2020 for 1397円. It later debuted in western countries as the Pro Series Starter Pack, Rage Luinor Destroy' 3A (stylized as Rage Lúinor Destroy' 3A), released by Hasbro for USD$22.99 in the United States.
It is the successor to Bloody Longinus 13 Jolt in the anime/manga series and Zwei Longinus Drake Spiral' Metsu in the toyline and is succeeded by Guilty Longinus Karma Metal Destroy-2.
Superking Chip - Longinus
- Main article: Superking Chip - Longinus
Longinus is a left-spin Superking Chip that features a dragon head, which is based on the design of its predecessor, the Bloody Longinus Layer.[1] The design represents the Superking Chip's namesake, the Lance of Longinus from Christian folklore. Longinus has an average weight for Superking Chips, and is thus outclassed by the heavier Helios 2, which has metal, and Spriggan, which has the versatility of dual-spin capabilities. Since the differences between most Superking Chips is only cosmetic, it is recommended to use the aforementioned Helios 2 and Spriggan over Superking Chips like Longinus, as they offer additional advantages.
Ring - Rage
- Main article: Ring - Rage
Rage is an Attack Type Ring that features two metal dragon heads on the side and two upper blades. The weight on the metal dragon heads make this ring capable of having high Knock-Out and Burst potential. Like its predecessors, Lost Longinus and Nightmare Longinus, the shape is designed to have heavy recoil and produce Upper Attacks. This is further complimented by Rage's alignment with the 3A Chassis, which accentuates its Upper Attack capabilities.
Hasbro's release of Rage under their Pro Series toyline is manufactured with softer plastic than the original Takara Tomy release.
Chassis - 3A
- Main article: Chassis - 3A
3A or 3-Attack is a left-spin Attack Type Double Chassis that is intended to synergize with the shape of the Rage Ring. As a Double Chassis, a 3A combination cannot use a Disc, as 3A has a Disc integrated into the design. 3A features an aggressive jagged shape, with two large plastic blades acting as the main contact points. These two spear-shaped blades slope upwards, and extend the two metal dragon heads of the Rage Ring. Like its predecessors in the Longinus line, when Rage is used together with 3A, it has high Knock-Out and Burst Attack potential. The four large upward sloping blades also allow Rage 3A combinations to produce Upper Attacks.
Performance Tip - Destroy'
- Main article: Performance Tip - Destroy'
Destroy' features an eight-pointed star tip, akin to Jaggy, under a free-spinning plate that sits at a standard height.
Due to the tip's shape and diameter, Destroy' will create an aggressive movement pattern equivalent to Jaggy with the same moderately controllable movement pattern and speed.
What sets Destroy' apart from Jaggy is the free-spinning plate that is meant to stabilize a Beyblade if it is knocked off balance by creating a second point of contact with only minimal Stamina loss due to its free-spinning nature. Unlike other Tips with similar gimmicks such as Cycle and Guard, the low placement of Destroy''s plate ensures that lock up does not occur, meaning that Destroy''s gimmick works as intended.
While Destroy' has poor Stamina from the star shaped tip, the smooth perimeter and free-spinning nature of the plate also grants Destroy' high Life-After-Death which can allow Combinations to potentially Out-Spin their opponent if a Burst or Knock-Out has not been achieved.
Like other Dash Performance Tips, Destroy' features a stronger spring lock, increasing the Performance Tip's Burst Resistance.
There is a mold variation of Destroy': the mold released by Hasbro in the Elite Champions Pro Set has a regular spring, which means it is in fact a normal Destroy, rather than the Dash Driver version.
