Emcee Singapore - 18th & 19th May 2024, BEYBLADE X Singapore National Championship 2024 was at Bugis Plus. Emcee created an exciting event over the 2 days. Some part of the event 2 emcee is needed as the are many qualifying rounds. One the emcee is a regular for beyblade competition. We were told he is young and always wanted to emcee for event. Bravo to him. Winner will represent Singapore for the Asia Cup in Malaysia. What an incredible event we have over the weekend. Some history and rules of this industry. In terms of overall prestige, though, the local Beyblade scene has been making strides over the years. Back in the early 2000s, void deck Beyblade battles were a lawless land. You will get to diy modifications like rough metal disks in the tops. Losers would have to hand over their tops to the winner. Kids who cannot afford official stadiums would either get cheap knockoffs from neighbourhood toy stores or set up their own makeshift arena with pencils on the ground. Nowadays most players stick to official rules and go by a point system: three points when the bey is knocked out of the arena, two points for a burst finish (when a part is knocked loose), and one point for a spin finish (when one bey outlasts the other). The first player to four points wins.
Players would wrap a string around their gasing and fling it forward to release. To win a gasing match, you’d have to either outlast your opponent or knock their top out of bounds. It’s kind of amusing to think of Singaporeans of generations past hunkered over a circle in the dirt, eyes fixed intently on the battling tops. Fast forward to the present day, and you’ve got their descendants doing the exact same thing. Only, instead of a gasing, it’s a polycarbonate, modifiable top. And instead of a circle in the dirt, the battleground is a small plastic bowl-shaped arena.
Of the finalist carried up by the emcee because he is going to represent team Singapore!
Great team, Great Job! Happy to be part of this dream team as the emcee.
