>>6338882you should make the OP an image of an actual blade next time because it makes the topic easier for people to notice
best way to get into Burst in my opinion is with Takara beys rather than Hasbro, they're better in almost every way, especially if you're looking to play competitive. But there are choices for Hasbro, basic Layers (ones that don't have K2, R2, V2 ect. after the name) are the most compact you can go, Roktavor, Unicrest, and Valtryek are about the best basics for Hasbro, and Gravity/Heavy paired with Defense or Accel are good choices.
No LR shooters exist yet in Hasbro or Takara, but Takara has left spin shooters due to being ahead of releases.
