Around (アラウンド, Araundo) is a Forge Disc released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Gatinko Layer System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-146 Random Booster Vol. 16 on July 20th, 2019. It later debuted in western countries as Around-P with the release of Hasbro's Pro Series Starter Pack, Lord Spryzen Around-P Fusion'.

Description

A Stamina Type Disc that uses four metal balls to reduce friction with the stadium's floor and stay sticky in the latter half of the battle.
— Official Description

Around is a circular, four-sided Forge Disc similar to Sting. It is rather wide, and consists of a metal core and plastic underside, with free-spinning metal balls at each of the four points. These metal balls are intended to roll along the stadium floor when the Forge Disc makes contact while the Beyblade is tilted. Around has excellent weight distribution, allowing it to be useful in many different Combinations, particularly Attack and Stamina Combinations. However, unlike Sting, the underside of Around can cause scraping at the end of a battle. Around is especially useful on Performance Tips such as Xtend+ and Bearing', accentuating the high opposite spin Stamina potential of these Performance Tips.

Use in Spin-Equalization Combinations

Around can be used in the Spin-Equalization Combination Master Diabolos 2/Longinus/Spriggan Around Bearing'/Xtend+. This Combination should be used in the Master Layer Base's Left-Spin mode, as this Combination works best in opposite spin matchups.

Overall

Around's weight distribution and gimmick makes it highly versatile and useful in any kind of Combination. On release, Around could be used to great effect in the Gatinko Layer System. However, Around is too light to remain competitive in the current metagame, as it has subsequently been outclassed by later releases in the Superking Layer System and onward.

As such, Around is recommended for collection purposes only.
