Spread (スプレッド, Supureddo) is a Forge Disc released by Takara Tomy and Hasbro as part of the Burst System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-02 DX Starter, Spriggan Spread Fusion, on July 18th, 2015. It later debuted in western countries with the release of the Spryzen & Odax Dual Pack.
Description
Spread is a completely circular Forge Disc, featuring a smooth perimeter and underside only interrupted by four small bumps located beneath the prongs, as well as several stylized blade designs on top. As with all Forge Discs, the letter representing the Forge Disc, in this case, S, is present on top of the prongs that fit into the Energy Layer. Spread has a significant amount of Outward Weight Distribution (OWD), and a relatively thin and aerodynamic shape, making it a viable choice for Stamina Combinations. Depending on which Performance Tip is used, Spread can also provide the combo with some Life-After-Death as it will roll along the stadium floor and give the Combination a few extra rotations after falling over, which can be crucial for Out Spinning an opponent.
For some time after its release, Spread was very useful in Stamina Combinations due to its weight distribution and its fair weight. However, as Bladers now have a wider array of competitively viable Forge Discs to choose from, Spread has fallen out of use compared to options such as Gravity and Knuckle.
Use in Stamina Combinations
Spread can be used on the Combination Deathscyther Spread Revolve. This combo has some of the highest raw Stamina in the metagame, enough so that it is even able to outspin Destabilizer Combinations using Orbit and Defense.
Alternatively, Spread can work on a Tornado Staller Combination, such as Deathscyther Spread Accel. The Outward Weight Distribution (OWD) of the Forge Disc not only provides Stamina, but also helps the Combination remain on the Tornado Ridge for a longer period of time.
Use in Balance Combinations
Spread can be used to create an Attack/Stamina Hybrid, Valkyrie Spread Trans. Trans’ tip changing mechanism allows the Combination to switch between traditional Mobile Attack, Stationary Attack, and Tornado Stalling, making this Combination a very versatile choice that can overcome nearly any opponent in the hands of a skilled player.
Overall
Spread was once an excellent choice for Stamina Combinations due to its Life-After-Death and weight distribution. However, it has since been heavily outclassed by Core Discs and Disc Frames.
As such, Spread is recommended for collection purposes only.
