Energy Layer - Valtryek
- Main article: Energy Layer - Valtryek
Hasbro's Valtryek is a right-spin Attack Type Layer based on Takara Tomy's Valkyrie. It is virtually identical to its Takara Tomy counterpart, featuring the same three-winged design, with each wing sporting a set of two protruding contact points. These consist of a larger contact point and a smaller kite-shaped contact point. The centre of the Layer depicts an armored face, with feathers protruding off of the helmet, and a V-shape between them to represent this Layer's namesake: valkyries, Odin's handmaidens in Norse mythology.
Compared to Takara Tomy's Valkyrie, the slopes of Valtryek are weaker than a mint Valkyrie's teeth, with performance comparable to a moderately worn Valkyrie. Due to its weak Burst Resistance, it cannot handle its recoil as well as a mint Valkyrie, which can also further increase its Burst Resistance with Dash Drivers. This is further exacerbated by the low Burst Resistance of Hasbro's rubber Attack Drivers. As such, Valtryek is outclassed by Takara Tomy's Valkyrie, but comparable to other Hasbro Attack Layer options such as Roktavor and Xcalius.
Forge Disc - Wing
- Main article: Forge Disc - Wing
Wing features a six-blade design. On the upper side of the Forge Disc, the letter W appears for easy differentiation from other Forge Discs.
The blades of Wing are meant to create Upper Force in Right-Spin and Down Force in Left-Spin. However, the small size of the blades makes any such effect negligible.
Due to its light weight and feeble relief that does not truly come in contact with opponents, Wing disadvantages any Beyblade it is part of.
Performance Tip - Accel
- Main article: Performance Tip - Accel
Accel features a plastic flat tip with a small diameter and sits at the standard height. The center of the Driver also contains an embossed logo featuring a stylized letter A for easy differentiation from other Drivers. Due to the surface area, Accel will create an aggressive, and if launched at an angle, somewhat easily controllable movement pattern. In terms of speed, Accel is faster than Blow but is slower than Xtreme, capable of reaching and stalling on the Tornado Ridge. Due to the plastic construction, Accel is an excellent choice for both Mobile Stamina and Attack/Stamina Balance Combinations. Furthermore, the solid construction also ensures that Accel will not wear out like other Drivers such as Xtreme nor be damaged like Zephyr.
However, Accel's plastic construction is also a weakness as Attack Combinations using Accel can lose their Banking Pattern somewhat easily, especially if the Combinations are unbalanced. Furthermore, the low friction means that Accel is liable to Self-Knock-Outs.
