Upper Dragoon is the best AR for right spin [[Upper Attack]]. Just from looking at it, you can see why this is. This AR has slopes that slant upwards to lift the opposing Beyblade off of the stadium floor. When this occurs, the opposing Beyblade has almost no [[Defense]] ability. They can take critical damage from this, and can be knocked out of the stadium. The slopes are also very long, making it more likely to have a successful [[Upper Attack]].

For Upper Attack to be successful, the slope of Upper Dragoon must be able to reach below the opposing Beyblade. Because of this, using a low BB will make the attack effective against more Beyblades.

=== Use in Specialized [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
 
 
A popular strategy with [[Upper Attack]] is to create a Beyblade that sits in the center of the stadium and allows the other Beyblade to come to it. When it makes contact, it will be lifted, dealt damage and tossed away until it moves back to the center again. This strategy leaves the opponent with nowhere to go, as the opposing Beyblade cannot make contact with you without damaging itself seriously.
 
 
This Beyblade combines [[attack]], [[defense]] and [[survival]] very effectively. It is hard to knock out of the stadium due to its weight and round shape, has good [[survival]] and attacks effectively with Upper Dragoon.

Upper Dragoon is a very useful part, primarily for its excellent performance in [[Spin Stealing Upper Attack]] combinations, though the fact it has some use for [[Defense]] is also a nice touch. Overall, however, most Bladers will be able to get by without it, and the fact that '''Kid Dragoon''' comes with no other parts of note means that it is not a must-have Beyblade.

This Beyblade contains Upper Dragoon, '''the best''' AR for right spin [[upper attack]]. It has also found a home in [[defense]] and [[survival]] combos. All players must utilize [[upper attack]] successfully in order to win consistently, simply because it is such an effective form of attack. For that reason alone, there is no reason not to recommend this Beyblade. '''Every player should buy this Beyblade.'''

Upper Dragoon is the best AR for Upper Attack. Just from looking at it, you can see why this is. This AR has slopes that slant upwards to lift the opposing Beyblade off of the stadium floor. When this occurs, the opposing Beyblade has almost no Defense ability. They can take critical damage from this, and can be knocked out of the stadium. The slopes are also very long, making it more likely to have a successful Upper Attack.

Overall

Upper Dragoon is a very useful part, primarily for its excellent performance in Spin Stealing Upper Attack combinations, though the fact it has some use for Defense is also a nice touch. Overall, however, most Bladers will be able to get by without it, and the fact that Kid Dragoon comes with no other parts of note means that it is not a must-have Beyblade. This Beyblade is not a must-have, but it is nevertheless a welcome addition to any collection.
