- This article is about Takara Tomy's DB Disc. For Hasbro's QD Disc, see Forge Disc - Tapered-Q.
Tapered (テーパード, Tēpādo) is a Forge Disc released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Dynamite Battle Layer System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-185 Booster, Vanish Fafnir Tapered Kick-3, on May 29th, 2021.
Description
Tapered is a round DB Disc with an ideal weight distribution for all combinations. Its round design increases Outward Weight Distribution (OWD) and creates high Stamina potential. Its heavy weight also grants it high Attack and Defense potential. Its general shape and performance is similar to Over, with the most notable difference between the two Discs being that Tapered has a downward sloping cone shape rather than the cylindrical shape of Over.
Overall
Due to Tapered's conical shape and heavy weight, it is versatile in any combination. While it is outclassed by Over and Illegal, it can be used as a third option for Stamina combinations. Tapered works particularly well when paired with the Bearing' Performance Tip.
As such, Tapered is not a must-have but a welcome addition for the WBO's Burst format.
Tapered is not legal in the WBO's Burst GT format.
Tapered is not legal in the WBO's Burst Limited format.
Tapered is not legal in the WBO's Burst Classic format.
