WBO Burst Format Ban List

View source
This article is about the WBO ban list. For the wbba. ban list, see Hall of Fame.

The World Beyblade Organization (WBO) has historically banned parts from their ranked tournaments during the Burst Series to promote a healthier metagame. The WBO's Burst format became a ranked format on February 3rd, 2016.[1]

There have been no banned parts in the WBO's Burst format since January 13th, 2019, when the Spryzen Requiem S3 Layer was removed from the ban list.
