How to use the list

  1. 1
    Do not over-invest before a patch

    Bey Rivals patches every few days, so a Bey can move tiers quickly.

  2. 2
    Build around type and parts

    Layer, disc and driver matter together; a top-tier Bey with bad parts loses to a tuned A-tier build.

  3. 3
    Use ranked for feedback

    If a Bey keeps losing clashes, check whether the issue is timing, build or matchup before rerolling.
