Beyblades

Special Moves

• Fate Judgement: Joker focuses its power into the rubber blades, then uses the hooking edge to deal massive damage (the cost is that it take massive damage as well)
• Fortune Trick: Joker's Trick driver changes modes automatically and repeatedly at the start of the battle, confusing the opponent and making its tracks unpredictable.
• Joker Wheel: Joker uses the counterclockwise facing blades on the Turn frame (in defense mode) to deflect the opponent's attack.
• Joker Flush: Joker rides to the top of the stadium slope, then rides downwards to increase its speed and power while having its Trick driver change into attack mode for a powerful attack.
