* Why make it so that the Gunpla are actually damaged/destroyed in these tournaments? Anyone who has built one, or God forbid tried to build a custom one, know how long they take to make. I don't think anyone would want to actually go out and risk their Gunpla getting completely wrecked after spending hours to build it.

** Doesn't Episode 7 of ''Try'' show that it simply doesn't? Yuuma calls out the offenders for their CripplingOverspecialization, implying that the system simply chooses a field at random, and if a Gunpla battler's suit is ill suited for it, tough break. This may explain why more flexible suits tend to fare better rather than powerful but narrowly specialized units in Gunpla battles--Sei's Build Strike is specifically built from a unit designed for maximum tactical flexibility with its Striker packs, so he can take advantage of most fields without complaint thanks to the Ootori-based Build Booster on the Build Strike.

*** If its first one, that could be true. For the point two, Mashita didn't even know that renji was on earth until after they won the tournament the battle was a part of.

** Two points here. One, that might not actually be cheating, by gunpla battle rules. Might fall under "If that happened, you should have taken better care to keep your machine safe.". Two, remember that Mashita is actively rigging the tournament against Reiji. It's possible that he told the officials NOT to intervene, specifically to cut Sei and Reiji's run short

** That's the thing: it doesn't. In Episode 7 of ''Try'', marine trio Team Angelfish is stuck in a frozen landscape and they collectively throw in the towel in a RageQuit by self-detonating.

* How does the battle system know which area to choose? Depending on what Gunpla are being used, the choice of environment could decide the course of a battle (as demonstrated with [[spoiler:Team Angelfish]] in Build Fighters Try),since if one team chooses suits geared for space (A Zeong or Dra-C, for example), then they would be at a huge disadvantage on the ground, and vice versa (a Guntank or GM ground type), so there presumably must be some method to prevent this.

** I think the "revolution" is more the mentality that Plavsky particles are more than the stuff that makes your suit run. It's the idea that it can be implemented into a full-fledged part of the combat style, a la Sengoku Astray's Particle Fa Jin, or as a sub-technique similar to the RG system or the Plavsky gate.

**Adding on to some of the above points, something to note with all the fancy systems used by the other fighters is that they are all flawed in some sense, with the majority only being saved by their pilot's skill. Aila's suit (Qubelay Papillion) has the Clear funnels and the super mode. Without Aila being able to essentially predict the enemy attacks, the suit would be boned if its funnels were taken out, as a competent close quarters suit could easily tear it apart (The Qubelay's have beam guns in the arms as well, but they're never used). Simmilarly, the Renato brother's suit (GM sniper K9), relied on confusion and subterfuge to distract the enemy so it could be taken out, but as evidenced by it's fight against the Meijin, a enemy that expects these tricks or traps can circumvent them. The Exam system works as a backup, but it would only work once and has a time limit. By comparison The Kampfer may not be particularly good in one area, but it is well rounded and has a variety on solid and beam-based weaponry. Given that PPSE and its later derivatives focus on pilots with very good piloting skills, you only need a suit that can keep up in all areas, the pilot will take care of the rest.

*** It's possible that some of the technology is incorporating existing stuff from the Gundam series. Using the Star Build Strike as an example, it is possible that the shield contains a derivative of the I-field, seen on suits such as the Big Zam and [[spoiler:Unicorn Gundam]]. Without getting too technical, I-fields basically create a lattice which functions as a negative to megaparticles (which make up beams), dissipating them. Since Plavsky particles are similar enough to Minovsky particles, it is possible that the Build Strike "collects" the dissipated mega particles (This could be done via the use of The Master Gundam's Darkness Finger) and channels them into its beam weapon. Thus, by exploiting existing equipment the builder could get the system to work as they wanted, you would simply need the right combination of parts.
