Version 1 — March 25, 2026

We will target regional capitals for hosting the events. This includes all major T1 cities such as Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkata, and a handful of T2 cities depending on demand.

Players from anywhere can join any event and participate to get their official Ranking updated.

The highest ranks will be invited to the annual National Inblade Championship.

Venues will be indoors with AC. There will be a focus on casual battling as well, apart from the main Ranked Event. For example, before and after the main Ranked Event(s), the stadiums will be free on a first-come, first-served basis that might or might not have judges assigned to them.

Stall areas are a must because we plan to start with sponsors. These areas will have a basic setup and allow sellers to have their stock on display. Sellers can also choose to accept pre-orders through a digital catalog. The management will first vet every seller before allowing them to appear, to avoid cases of complaints.

All events will have prizes based on funding received and the type of tournament it is. They will be specifically imported. Sellers/resellers will be free to sponsor prizes as well.

All events will require volunteers or organizers. The main Tournament Organizers (TO) will be from the Inblade team. The TOs will have the final say in all matters related to the venue and associated with the event. The registration form will include the player’s consent to agree to the TO’s decisions in matters related to maintaining calm, security, logistics, etc. TOs can participate in the tournament too.

Apart from any TO(s), volunteers can be announcers or judges. A check will be done to confirm the personnel for each event.

No entry fee to be charged. Inblade would rather have sellers sell their items and pay an amount than have bladers pay to enjoy the hobby. Those who make money should bear the costs (Beyblade sellers might make money from sales, so they will bear costs). The players are not making money; in fact, they are spending on expenses and parts. And without bladers, there’s no Beyblading. Inblade’s aim is to encourage Beyblading.

It’s almost too easy to jot down a cool idea and hope for an ideal scenario. But not all ideas are truly practical. If we wish to proceed, we need to have highly specific principles that will differentiate us from any other form of community-building in the space. That shall be done by adhering to and prioritizing our 10 Core Principles at all times.
