I don't mean to brag, but since everyone's giving tips and stuff, I thought perhaps you'd like to hear from a reigning tournament champion (True story; I won the local Beyblade tournament in my hometown and haven't been beated since).
I'll restate what everyone's been saying: it's all about choice, customizing, practice, equipment, and patience (in no particular order)
A. CHOICE Your choice of Beyblade is important. Make sure it fits your personal playing style in any sport. Say you're more of a defensive player, or you like to wear the opposition out. Then your basic blade would fall under those (defense or endurance).
B. CUSTOMIZATION Now that you have your basic blade, you can fit it out with parts that will enhance its strong points. Defense? Get a blade base that you can put bearings in. Like giving blows but not taking them? Make sure your attack ring and/or weight disk are capable of dishing out the damage you want them to.
You don't need to change all the parts; mix and match! Sometimes all it takes is a single changed part and your blade's performance increases! For example, I changed only the weight disk in my Dranzer F (the one with a flame change base - also helpful for countering), and its stats went from Atk=4 Def=2 End=3 to Atk=4 Def=3 End=4. And no, these aren't made up; my sister and I worked on gathering real data using our own blades. I forgot what we used as a 'measuring stick', though; I'll try to remember and then post when I've got it.
C. PRACTICE ...and practice as often as you can. If your blade has been acting in a certain way after a certain launch, that could be the beginning of your own special attack (for real!). That's how I came across my 'Flaming Fury'.
Also practice your launch; sometimes a good launch is all it takes to take down an opponent. Again, citing from experience. My 'patented' launch - no one has yet been able to perfect it aside from me - is a combination of a varied Flame Arrow/Arrow launch and a varied Bearing launch. I'll put details on this launch (a step-by-step, most likely) when - and if - someone requests it. Anyway, this particular launch, and my Flaming Fury attack, was what won me the tournament. Why? Because upon launching, the blade goes crazy once it hits the dish, ricocheting off the slopes at dizzying speeds and at all angles; it's sure to hit the opposing blade at least once, and in optimum condition, is guaranteed to knock the opponent's blade out of the dish in 10 seconds, give or take a few.
Try watching Beyblade episodes again, and this time, don't pay attention to the characters; focus on how they launch their blades, if there are any distinctions. Taking something from the show and 'customizing' it to fit actual scenarios may help you in formulating your own launch, your own attack, or whatever.
D. EQUIPMENT Aside from making sure your blade is in good condition, check your launcher and ripcord for faults, too. If there are, do something about them. You can even add 'enhancers' onto your launcher that will up your blade's stats a bit more. The spring attachment - similar to the one Kai uses in G-Rev - adds to a blade's endurance and attack (and defense for those with bearings in them). If you're serious about winning matches and stuff, get the best equipment you can - but don't spend all your cash in one go, and spend reasonably.
Last, but not the least...
E. PATIENCE You have to have patience to finalize a new launch or a new attack. You have to be patient in trying out all the different blade combinations and finding which one works best for you. Most of all, you have to be patient when it comes to winning battles. Just because you win in theory doesn't mean you'll win in practice. It take time and effort to achieve anything, and this includes improving your skills as a blader so you can finally attain the title of champion (or whatever you're aiming for).
Okay, I'll stop here. I'm just a few paragraphs short of giving a full-blown Beyblade lecture. I just hope this helped at least one of you, and...sorry for stretching the page... sweatdrop
