Blade: Dran Sword Metal Coat Blue

Weight: 35g (LOW END) - 35.3g (HIGH END)

• Design: Three-sided blade design with sharp, aggressive contact points. 

• Uses a variety of attack potential: Capable of both upper attack (launching Beyblades into the air) and smash attack (sending Beyblades into pockets). 

•  Attack VS Attack performance: In an attack vs. attack (AVA) matchup, Dran Sword tends to excel initially with sharp and explosive hits. 

• Attack VS Defense/Stamina: It can also perform well against stamina and defence combinations as Dran Sword can use its aggressive recoil to deliver strong blows against opponents.  

• DranSword on Stamina/Defense: When used on stamina or defence combinations, Dran Sword can maintain a stationary position in the stadium while still being aggressive enough to achieve knockouts. 

Strengths:

• Explosive Critical Hits: Dran Sword at its peak, being mint can deliver strong explosive hits that can Burst or KO their opponent. However, this can vary the more worn Dran Sword becomes.  

Weaknesses:

• Low Stamina: Fast and aggressive but has low stamina, depleting quickly over time.

• Top Heavy: Due to the shape and design this Beyblade will naturally as the battle gets closer to the end fall down because of where the weight is distributed.  

• Negative Recoil: This blade can suffer the issue where the recoil generated can be used against itself leading it to be hurled around the stadium where one of its greatest assets could be a weakness.

• Wearing Design: Due to its sharp and aggressive design, especially when paired with the Beyblade X Xtreme Dash Gimmick, it is prone to wear faster than other Beyblades. It is recommended to have more than one copy of the Dran Sword layer, likely for replacements due to wear and tear.

Overall: Due to the fact other releases like Phoenix Wing and other attackers not only outclass for pure attack but for other combination types, Dran Sword is a welcome addition but not a must-have currently. 

Gameplan: On setups with low height on any aggressive bit that can get speed, like Flat Taper, you must hard launch and aim to defeat your opponent quickly.
