The reason impact drake hits even wizard rod so hard is because the rubber gives so much traction to the hits, which wasn't really the case with metal on metal contact because wizard rod is so round but with rubber it's a different story
@@fromis.9um, no it doesn’t? Low Rush alone is reason enough to make it worth buying (especially since all releases with normal Rush are either 3-packs, random boosters or customize sets), but this blade is also, like he said, “Record-breakingly heavy.” Pair that up with the aggressive shape and the rubber might genuinely be the only reason it isn’t WizardRod levels of dominant in attack combos.
Ghost circle could have diversified the meta. If it was a little heavier, even if it was lighter than Wizard, could of been an interesting point due to the smaller shape than Rod
A lower ratchet and an actually good bit would also help. Honestly the part choice for that entire booster seems very cheap. Man, look at this! TT is recycling old, bad parts just to fill up their slots while Hasbro is legitimately good quality. I would’ve never believed that back in 2022
Optimistic theory: TT released this now as a "pressure release valve" to allow them to release more bold left spin beys in the future. If the left spin meta gets too dominant, there is this bey built in as an answer with good all-around performance but also spin stealing potential. Honestly I hope that x never has a spin steal left spin unless they intend to make left spin way less uncommon
Loving the look of this one! Its design is very reminiscent of Bound Attacker, while the performace reminds me of when Lightning L-Drago RD145 RF was still meta defining. Only you're not using RF and it shows. Much like the shape and material of R145 caused massive recoil for both sides in Lightning L-Drago's matches, the "rubber attack" of Impact Drake is providing some serious self destructive rebounds here and you really need the extra grip of rubber to stop that. As much as the stamina of Rubber Accel has been abysmal so far, it will definitely maximise the amount of this bey's explosive impact going into the opponent and minimise the recoil it inflicts on itself.
It's going to be interesting to see where the meta goes from here as this bey is going to be far from unbeatable, by the looks of it, but we'll have to see a real shift towards defense types capitalising on that deadly recoil.
I'm only just getting into Beyblade X, after not really even thinking about Beyblade since I was a teen- Almost 20 years ago. Sadly, the UK is extremely far behind the US on releases. Our most recent release is the string launcher Soar Phoenix.
9-60 is perfect part yes but they could have made a new ratchet knowing that there is no 8 sided ratchets yet(including the fact that Drake is a four sided an 8 side ratchet would be nice with it in my opinion)
@Switchkid64 it can increase if done properly, a small amount of rubber can increase friction/direct force while still allowing the metal to be majority of the impact
People might make fun of me for this, but I think that impact Drake if paired with the correct stamina bit, could probably make a killer stamina build.
6:01 It needs to be noted how little a gram actually is. 1 Gram is the weight of a really small paperclip. It takes quite a few grams before it really starts mattering.
My page? You mean Mall Of Toys? Mall Of Toys is a partner of mine, but not something I own or am a part of. Hopefully they restock soon because there's a few I want to get I'll pass along the nice message!
if a defense type like crest leon had a ring of rubber on the inside it could be a wall of defense cushioning attacks with good weight distribution it would break the game
Impact Drake 9-60 or maybe 5-60 GP would be really cool, focusing on it's K.O. potential while having a chance to save some power, I really want this one so I can test so have fun Nuc!
This bey is pretty awesome! I definitely love the design. I dont care much about how it battles though, I just really want to have my own beyblade first before I worry about the competitive side of Beyblade. Still, the battles in the video, so fun to watch!
I just ordered a hasbro phoenix wing. I'll get the takara tomy cobalt dragoon and impact drake when i get the chance. What are some others that you would recommend?
Would be awesome for the next bey to be impact dragoon, making the square complete, left spin rubber Cobalt Drake Cobalt Dragoon *Impact Dragoon* Impact Drake
TT: Releases the lightest and heaviest beys in the same group, so people don't notice impact drake being a chonker That said, the Year of the Dragon ending with a high-power dragon is definitely appropriate. And, as a Year of the Dragon kid, I'm a bit biased towards dragon beyblades. Hell my go-to is Dragoon on Elevate because it's just cool and I'm STALKING my local gamestop because they might finally have Dran Buster. Basically I'm on #TeamDragon and have no intention of swapping sides. (Exception is SharkEdge, my beloved). I'll have to pick this up sooner than later. Probably next monday.
I noticed a pattern in Khromes beys. First, we got COBALT Drake. Then, COBALT Dragoon. We went back to Drake with Impact, maybe the next one will be Impact Dragoon? (And possibly have left rubber) EDIT: I just made it to the end of the video, seems we had the same prediction! 🤣
A lot of people are talking about "impact dragoon" , tt avoided spin stealing with cobalt dragoon so they’re either gonna change their mind abt spin stealing or just not make this bey
I know that people are excited for CX I’m kind of skeptical about it because if it’s going to be like Metal Fight then I feel like it’s going to be too much customization
Ayo nuc I need advice I’m running off meta counters for the meta are these combos good dran buster 1-60 LF shark edge 9-60 GF and Leon crest 7-60 hexa so are these good combos
@nuc some where hyped for rubber on beyblade, but there's some who got disappointed that it was rignt spin. They probably expected a spin stealer bey off the bat.
I can't wait to see cx and I wish we could get a gravity destroyer or Requiem or even fusion hades and from plastic gen i really wanna see dark effigy or panther 2 and galeon I really wanna see hms but no one voted 4 it so I gtta pay somebody 4 a custom
Impact drake becomes the best attack bey in beyblade x. Sorry my friend, Dranbuster :_))) I recommend atk combo for impact drake Impact Drake 5-60 Low Rush

also because of the the bounce and recoil from the rubber
Honestly I was not into BX because it didn't have an interesting competitive in my opinion but recently I'm getting hyped with news like this.
Man, the LR makes those extreme dashes SO much more satisfying to me, idek why!
Probably because Rush moves slower around the X rail so you can actually see it happen more clearly
Impact Drake really is showing how big 2025 might be for Beyblade fr
Actually it sucks

@Switchkid64 maybe it's new, but every player using that got trash. I even beat using the driger
@@fromis.9 was this an official tournament? I wanna see the records myself.
@Switchkid64 it was G3 but the bey is not very fantastic as it was shown. Perhaps it's all low weight? So maybe have to get lucky for the heavyweight
This release is sure to make an *impact.*
Yes sir!!
Actually it sucks
@ at least low rush is good
I stopped keeping up with beyblade x for a while and when I come back I see SO MANY ITS INSANE🔥🔥🔥
Ghost circle could have diversified the meta. If it was a little heavier, even if it was lighter than Wizard, could of been an interesting point due to the smaller shape than Rod

Fun fact the impact drake string launcher has more string compared to the Phoenix Wing launchers.🤓
SamuraiSaber’s launcher is still the best in BBX tho

From what I have seen in other videos, it rips apart ratchets. Once it's low enough to hit the ratchet, it's over.
SharkEdge is now out of a job IG lol

No I’m in the uk it’s wave 2 In Argos
@jayanchoudhury1200 As of when? I looked in Smyths at the start of December, and there just wasn't much of anything. Didn't think of Argos, tbh.
Btw you are the reason I started playing beyblade I think i told you but I was watching your videos since dual layer
Love the new camera angle for the battles
9-60 is perfect part yes but they could have made a new ratchet knowing that there is no 8 sided ratchets yet(including the fact that Drake is a four sided an 8 side ratchet would be nice with it in my opinion)
It really all comes down to how blocky and exposed the sides are
@ yeah
so finally drake has rubber to smash his little opponents 😊
💀💀💀💀
Are you implying that rubber helps attack types? Because it actually does the opposite
@Switchkid64 it was supposed to be a drake joke
@NicolasMenezes-z7f oh right lmao
@Switchkid64 it can increase if done properly, a small amount of rubber can increase friction/direct force while still allowing the metal to be majority of the impact
It looks like valkrie !
Remember it is 2025 this year
No 🤬

crazy how leon crest is about 35 paper clips heavy
Supposed to be getting mine tomorrow. Can’t wait
Duuude I checked the store and it amazed me!! When will it re-stock Metal Series beys?

@nuc oh I'm sorry, I though it was yours. But still awesome prices.
very much looking for my blade to come in looking forward to use the rubber excel bit
This bey is such a BEAST. What a great way to end off 2024 for Beyblade 💪🐉
True
if a defense type like crest leon had a ring of rubber on the inside it could be a wall of defense cushioning attacks with good weight distribution it would break the game
7:21 HYDRO PODS!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
4:45 Na you cooked on that one, ill give u roses for that
A low rush testing video would certainly make an "impact"
Impact Drake 9-60 or maybe 5-60 GP would be really cool, focusing on it's K.O. potential while having a chance to save some power, I really want this one so I can test so have fun Nuc!
I cant wait to get this myself, im getting mine in a week or two
Mine is coming in next Wednesday I cannot wait!!
HYPE
I think that impact drake can work on a 1-60 hexa like tyrano bit with the same combo and throw away to the pocket while keeping some stamina
I find it weird they change drake from left to right potential hint at it being duel spin in the future?
Drake is right spinning
Dragoon is left spinning
impact drake bouta shake the meta 💔
i cant miss a vid of yours :) i bought 2 of them just cause they have rubber most of the type though i only buy 2 if they are attack types
Love the vids keep en coming

Should hopefully come in the second batch! TT isn’t sending enough 😭
I know I haven’t received mine
I got an email earlier that mine shipped, it was part of "Lot 2" apparently and should be delivered by the 7th
W illnuc banger
So we had meteor L-drago for metal masters, Drain Fafnir for Burst God and now, Impact Drake for X season 2
I wonder how it will do on Rubber Accel?
Im really wanting to try 7-70 low rush and 5-60 level first. This blade is SICK
The third phoenix wing mold is heavier at a weight of 40g
Lucky I'm still waiting for mine. My dran Buster's arriving on the 7th. While, my impact Drake, doesn't have a shipment date
Imagg go imagine putting rubber accel on drake 💀
Would be awesome for the next bey to be impact dragoon, making the square complete, left spin rubber

9-60LR is a killer combo for Cobalt Dragoon 😉

with the right combo and fight it against cobalt dragoon it could steal spin like fafnir

It seems i was right
How can you tell if your Phoenix Wing is the new mold without weighing it?
@@BlockMaster16 there’s a certain section on the wing that’s more filled in if it’s mold 3.
@nuc ahh got it! Tysm
Not going to lie, kind of wish they would have made a 9-70, and a 9-80...
I know that people are excited for CX I’m kind of skeptical about it because if it’s going to be like Metal Fight then I feel like it’s going to be too much customization
Yeah it’s both awesome, and worrying. They have to nail it or it’ll have the same problems Metal fight did.
A combo for Impact Drake: Impact Drake 5-60 Rubber Accel because rubber with rubber go gurr 👍🏼
Mall of toys hasn’t even shipped mine yet 😣 I just wanna use it
Ayo nuc I need advice I’m running off meta counters for the meta are these combos good dran buster 1-60 LF shark edge 9-60 GF and Leon crest 7-60 hexa so are these good combos
Hmm… Shark edge on GF may not be the best choice BUT I like the other 2!

Impact Drake 1-60 Low Flat to maximize the attack power at the cost of stamina.

People, on Impact Drake Post-release: "IT BROKE THE META!"
Who was saying meh? I thought everyone was almost overly hyped for it.

Oh beyblade made a new generation 😅 I still own my cho zi blades
If you do a testing video, try it against the new Soar Phoenix on 3-60 Rush please 🙏
I don't have mine yet but I want to put it on 7-60 RA. I wonder if anyone has any testing on it
lol, I love my twisted tempo 😂
Nuc should I get cobalt dragoon or silver wolf cuz I only have enough money for one
@@Ermmmmmm513 I think cobalt. Silver wolf may be “better” but cobalt is a ton of fun AND has the first left spin launcher!!
@ ok ima get cobalt thanks
I wanna know if i could make a good combo out of pheonix wing impact drake dran sword and hell scythe cause I only have those beys
I would say phoenix wing 360 low rush and impact drake 960 low rush and dran sword 960 low rush and dran sword 360 taper
Try out Impact Drake 3-60T. It's either really lucky for me OR really good. 😂
Ok thanks
