(Least) Favorite AI bot

That's right, post what your favorite/least favorite new AI bots are, based on looks, difficulty, originality, or anything.

My favorite new bot is True Love, because it looks just like something you could build in real life, and it's got one of the coolest skins out of all the bots.

Least favorite bot is probably Cranky Spanky, because 1. The flipper/hammer combo doesn't really work how I wanted it to.  2. I couldn't think of a better name.  3. It's so hard to kill!

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

my most fav AI bot is probably Critical Emergancy for looks, or gamaraze III also for looks and destructive capability.

my least favs are Wrecktangle because of his gay design, or Red Alert because he is the easiest bot to beat in DSL TC 2.

if there was a Drillzilla replica than that wood be my fav.

My least is samurai or how it is typed. Anyway it is hard to get any very good hits on its chassis and it has the armoring like on a tank. My favorite bot... I don't know yet for sure. Maybe good old Sir Killalot because it is so fun to smash him up over and over again. NO WAIT!

I know now. My favorite robot is that junkyard team's wreck tangle or how it is again typed, but anyway it is just fun to try to rip every components off it before killing it. Its nice to smash and smash and smash it over and over again until it is finished.

Just make sure your flipper doesn't get flipped before you flip those other flippers!

From DSL 2, I like Raptor and Backyard Shredder for looks.

but its hard to flip those flipping bastards because they can get under you more easily with there flippers and flip u, so than i get pissed and self-right and try to flip them. Then those flipping bastards flip me out of the arena then i flip them off =/

Shogun has proven particularly challenging.

My LW's and MW's aren't faring well against the new bots with hammer heads

Arthrobotics are insectweights. You only fight them with ants and beetles. And all the Ai bots aree too easy except for Grog, The Vengeful. He's my least favorite. And some of the teams don't show up in tourneys because no special teams should go in the tourneys.

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.

Umm, I don't like Locknut's skin because it looks like Cocknut. Other than that it's also pretty plain, but I like all the AI bots.
