Best Blast Combos in CX: Emperor, Pegasus and Valkyrie

Blast is a Main Blade of the CX line, the Beyblade X system where a bey is assembled from a Lock Chip, a Main Blade and an Assist Blade instead of a single blade. That’s why there is no single “Blast combo”: Emperor Blast, Pegasus Blast and Valkyrie Blast are the same Main Blade under different Lock Chips, and this page groups them all.

Blast is an attack Main Blade (50 attack, 15 stamina, 10 defense in our parts registry). It is the most-played CX Main Blade in tournaments over the past year, spread across hundreds of different builds, but no single CX build has reached the top of the overall ranking. The tables below show the best ones today.

Which Lock Chip: Emperor, Pegasus or Valkyrie

The Lock Chip is the first choice, and three cover most of Blast’s top-cut placements:

• Emperor Blast is the most common and holds the best-scoring builds.
• Pegasus Blast is the second choice, and the version Takara Tomy first sold the blade with (CX-07, Pegasus Blast ATr).
• Valkyrie Blast is the third. At the 2025 World Championship, the bronze medalist (Berguiny) played Valkyrie Blast Wheel 9-60 Free Ball.

Wolf, Sol and Dran Lock Chips show up too, but rarely.

Which Assist Blade: Heavy first

Heavy (H) is the Assist Blade on about two thirds of Blast’s top-cut placements, with Wheel (W) a distant second. On a light-defense attack Main Blade, the extra weight of Heavy is the usual pick.

Ratchet and bit

Under the CX core, the choices look like the BX meta: 9-60 is the most common ratchet, followed by 3-60, and Kick and Low Rush lead the bits. Emperor Blast H 9-60 Kick is the reference build at the top of the table below.

How Blast compares with the BX blades

Blast’s CX builds don’t yet match the scores of BX staples like Wizard Rod 1-60 Hexa or Shark Scale’s Low Rush builds. Players use it a lot, but spread across many different Lock Chip and Assist combinations, so no single build piles up results. If you play CX, Blast is the Main Blade with the most tournament evidence behind it; if you just want the strongest attack bey, the BX blades still lead.

Tournament record

Blast: 1,011 tournament placements over the last 12 months across 501 distinct combos, 342 of them wins; 4 top cut appearances in the last 30 days.
