3 on 3 Match Type Rules:

Deck Sequencing

Each blader must then choose the initial order which they would like to play with their three Beyblades.

All three Beyblades must remain concealed from their opponent. This is typically done through the use of a deck box with three numbered slots, but other methods which accomplish the concealment of the Beyblades and their order are also acceptable.

Once a blader has constructed all three Beyblades, and completed sequencing them, they must announce that they are “set” and present their launchers and Beyblades to the judge for inspection.

Perform Battles in Sequence

Players perform battles following the sequence of the Beyblades in their deck until one player scores 3 total points.

The Beyblades in the #1 slot will play each other, followed by #2 vs #2, and #3 vs. #3.

Re-order Sequence

If neither blader has earned 3 Points after all three battles have been played between all three Beyblades in each deck, bladers will (optionally):

Re-order their entire deck in secret within 30 seconds.

Then repeat step number four ("Perform Battles in Sequence") as many times as is necessary using their three Beyblades until one blader has earned a total of 3 Points to determine the match winner.

Draws

If there is a draw in any battle, the battle will be replayed using the same two Beyblades. This may continue for up to two consecutive battles.

If a judge calls a second consecutive draw by outspin, bladers must advance to the next Beyblade in their deck if possible or initiate the re-order sequence to start a new battle if the previous battle was between the third Beyblades in their decks.

Battle Limit and Consecutive Draws

All matches have a battle limit of ten battles. 

If a tenth battle is played and:

One player has more points than the other: Player with more points wins the match.

If the score is tied: The match continues as normal. The player who scores the next point wins the match.
