What is Beymetatool?

Beymetatool is a tool created by the international Beyblade X community that aggregates results from official WBO (World Beyblade Organization) tournaments to assign a performance score to every blade, ratchet and bit.

In practice: every time a combo wins or loses in an official WBO tournament, that result enters the calculation. The more tournaments you win, the higher the score. The higher the score, the more competitive the piece is considered in the current meta.

It is the reference tool of the global competitive scene — and the data you find on BeyX Hub (database, tier list, combo builder) is all based on that same WBO dataset.

How it collects data

Beymetatool does not use opinions or votes — it uses verified tournament results. The process is simple:

  1. An official WBO tournament takes place somewhere in the world
  2. Results are registered on the WBO platform
  3. Beymetatool imports those results and calculates how many times each combo/blade has won, lost and what position it placed
  4. From this data an aggregated score emerges for each piece

The dataset covers tournaments from around the world (USA, Japan, Europe, etc.) — which makes it a statistically robust sample compared to the experience of a single player or a single country.

How to read scores and tiers

The Beymetatool score is a raw number that grows with better tournament performance. Tiers are assigned based on fixed thresholds.

Blade tiers

Tier Min score Example Competitive meaning
S+ ≥ 85 Shark Scale (92), Wizard Rod (90) Dominant meta. Mandatory choice for serious tournaments.
S ≥ 60 Aero Pegasus (65), Knight Shield, Impact Drake Highly competitive. Works in almost every format.
A+ ≥ 50 Cobalt Dragoon, Hover Wyvern, Wizard Arrow Excellent. Can beat S+ blades with the right matchup.
A ≥ 40 Phoenix Wing, Silver Wolf, Dran Sword Good. Competitive in local tournaments and round robins.
B+ ≥ 33 Clock Mirage (34), Tyranno Beat Decent. Wild card — surprises occasionally but can't hold against top tier.
B ≥ 25 Shark Edge, Unicorn Sting For beginners. Not recommended for WBO tournaments.

Ratchet and Bit tiers

Thresholds differ for ratchets and bits because raw scores are calibrated on different scales:

S+ ratchets and bits in Beymetatool are those that appear in WBO combos with the highest win frequency — 1-60 and 9-60 for ratchets, Hexa and Low Rush for bits.

What it means in practice: an example

Take Wizard Rod, score 90 (S+). This means that in global WBO tournaments, combos based on Wizard Rod have won frequently enough to accumulate 90 points. That is an exceptional result.

Compare it with Clock Mirage, score 34 (B+): it appears in tournaments, has some placements, but doesn't match the win frequency of S+ blades.

The score doesn't say Clock Mirage can't beat Wizard Rod — it says that statistically, across a large sample of tournament matches, Wizard Rod wins far more often.

Blade tier vs combo tier: the important distinction

Beymetatool assigns a tier to the blade as a single component. But in Beyblade X you play a full combo (blade + ratchet + bit) — and not every combo built around an S+ blade is S+.

Example: Aero Pegasus is S tier (score 65) as a blade, but its most tested WBO combo (1-60 Rush) is B tier. Why? Because the WBO dataset for Aero Pegasus is still limited — not enough tournaments have been played to get a precise estimate for the combo.

To understand the tier of specific combos — not just the blade — use our Tier List or Database, where we have integrated both perspectives.

How to use Beymetatool data to build combos

The most direct way is to use our Combo Builder: we have integrated Beymetatool tiers for all 20 blades, 24 ratchets and 27 bits in the database. When you select pieces, the builder shows you:

Beymetatool vs our Tier List: what's the difference?

Beymetatool provides the raw data — score and tier for individual pieces, without context. Our Tier List and Database add:

In other words: Beymetatool gives you the number, BeyX Hub explains what to do with it.

How often does the meta update?

Beymetatool is not real-time — it is updated periodically with new WBO results. Generally every one to two months, depending on tournament volume. The meta changes slowly: S+ hierarchies tend to remain stable, but occasionally a new blade (or new combo) rises quickly.

We keep the BeyX Hub database updated with each significant release of new WBO data. To see the current state, check our Rankings page for the latest standings.

Frequently asked questions about Beymetatool

Does Beymetatool only consider official WBO tournaments?

Yes. Only results from tournaments registered and validated by the WBO enter the calculation. Unofficial local tournaments, friendlies and online matches are not counted.

Can a B tier blade beat an S+ blade?

Absolutely yes. The tier is a statistic over large numbers — it does not predict every individual clash. Launch technique, stadium choice and matchup decisions matter enormously. A skilled player with a B tier blade can beat a beginner using Shark Scale.

Why do some new blades have a low tier even if they seem strong?

Because they have few WBO data points. A recently released blade may be potentially very strong but, if it has appeared in few tournaments, its Beymetatool score is still low. Over time and with more tournaments the tier adjusts. This is the case with Aero Pegasus: score 65 (S tier) but the most tested combo is B — the data will consolidate.

How do I find the best combos, not just blades?

Beymetatool shows tiers for individual pieces. To see full combos (blade + ratchet + bit) with their respective tiers and WBO win rates, use our Tier List or the Combo Builder on BeyX Hub — we have integrated all WBO data in a navigable format.
