Zwei (ツヴァイ, Tsuvuai) is a Layer Base 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-144 Booster, Zwei Longinus Drake Spiral' Metsu, on June 22nd, 2019. It later debuted in western countries with the release of Hasbro's Pro Series Starter Pack, Zwei Lúinor Blitz-P Xtend+ Metsu.

Description

An Attack Type Base that violently flicks the opponent with its large upper blades equipped with super heavy metal.
— Official Description

Zwei is a four-bladed Layer Base with two small blades and two larger blades with the signature metal dragon heads of the Longinus line of Energy Layers. These downward sloping blades result in an extremely hard-hitting and heavy Layer Base, with high amounts of Smash Attack. It is this design that makes Zwei one of the only viable Left-Spin Attack Type Layer Bases. Zwei, along with Judgement, ensures that Stamina Type Combinations do not dominate the use of Layer Bases. While Zwei does not have a Burst Stopper like Judgement, Zwei does not wear and makes an ideal option for Left-Spin Attack Combinations. Furthermore, unlike Judgement, Zwei is almost exclusively used in conjunction with rubber Attack Type Performance Tips, and cannot use plastic Performance Tips such as Spiral' well due to its heavy weight.

Hasbro's Pro Series Zwei is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's Zwei. but manufactured with weaker materials.

Overall

Zwei is one of the best Layer Bases for Attack Combinations, and at its release curbed the relevancy of Left-Spin Stamina Combinations. Although a must-have among Gatinko Layer System parts, Gatinko Layer System Energy Layers are too light to be competitive in the current metagame.

As such, Zwei is recommended for collection purposes only.
