make your bot invertible. OR get a better wedge. OR make a self-righting mechanism.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

1 Skirt + 90degree Axle w/ Skirt = VERY good protection!
Damn I should probably put something fancy in this bit huh?

Simple, your bot's wedges aren't good enough.. Any wedge on a burst motor is the best kind of wedge you can have, nearly impossible to beat.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Flippers really aren't hard to beat. Especially AI flippers because they don't leave you upsidedown long enough for you to lose, even if you don't have a srimech/invertibility for some reason. As long as you're in an arena without the possibility of an OOTA anyway.
