Title: The 100 Most Memorable RA2 Robots Of All Time
Post by: Badnik96 on May 30, 2012, 02:26:39 PM
YESH


anyway, this is for discussion of that list everyone was talking about in the RA2 10th Anniversary thread.


NOTE: This is not just for amazing bots. Innovation and memorability are also factors.
NOTE 2: More than 100 can be considered, and then we can vote off which ones aren't famous or memorable enough.
NOTE 3: This is for all kinds of robots. Even custom robots can be considered.




So you guys can nominate bots, shoot them down etc. Just discuss this.

You should add:
Ripblade
Berzerker
The Boxer
Forkie
Gammaraze (Even though he was from Robot Arena (1))
Lugnut

Really, the only Stock AI bot up there should be EMERGENCY. Also, if VQ2 is there, I reckon Fever should be there too. Was a great match, that TA Grand Final. =D Few more suggestions I had, though:
 
Event Horizon (Recognisable Click design)
Alter Ego III (First 9-mace bursted HPZ LW HS)
Enturon (Consistently one of the best DSL BW Rammers out there)
Fury (Iconic Stock MW HS)
Rotation-Powered Pulsar (Killer SnS)
ULTIMATUM (HOJ Slayer)
Volatile Partisan (I think it was the first to simulate Mecanum-style drive)

Post by: Fracture on May 30, 2012, 02:50:08 PM
ULTIMATUM. First 36HS and only bot to legally KO Hammer of Justice. What's Clockwork Hydra doing in there?

Also what the heck is ICED OUT?

Most people who played Robot Arena (1) think he is too overpowered, and in Stock AI the Boxer and Berzerker were the toughest in their class, and Lugnut is gaining infamy, and Forkie  is also infamous for being the weakest MW of the Rookies.

Post by: madman3 on May 30, 2012, 02:52:22 PM
Every bot I have made should be on this list.

Legit post is legit.

But yeah, Big Wheel (I think that's what it's called) by 123 should be on it for being the first effective TRFBD. Or my first one for patent claims. Either works.

Don't want too many generic popups really.

Also Fracture Clockwork Hydra is there because it is memorable and had a somewhat unique weapon system.

You can take a look at these threads:

Also Fracture Clockwork Hydra is there because it is memorable and had a somewhat unique weapon system.
Memorable is questionable, although I suppose I don't have the authority to do that questioning. If you listed bots just for their "unique" weapon systems the list would be way too long...

VeXeD had two wedges as opposed to one. I think it was the foundations of the Pyscolone Popup, though. HPZs, Rubbers, 2 blacks and 3 DDT's.

Ryu-Kishin, I think would be good. I also thought of GF93's Pyromancer, which was also successful, but looked fantastic. Which is surely the point of IRL bots.

Yeah I'll consider Zapper and also Tofu

Flood 2... neh, besides being a borderline IRL bot that won a lot it doesn't have much that makes it top-100 quality. Kurt Rambis however...

Calypso was entered in RIP1, it was Queen Calypso that won IRL Tourney.
Also -shameless plug time- I would nominate Fever (As NFX did), or one of the Orange bots, just based on the whole spawning clones thing, as no-one had really done anything like that layout before, as far as I'm aware. And Fever did awesome.

More of JB's stuff needs to be in here - maybe Iron Outlaws, Blitzkrieg or something utilizing the whole Octane glitch thing.

Barbed Obsidian. (Luigica was a genius, this was IMO his finest work)
Little Darling. (people around when I started will remember her horrors)
Vise/Frag Beetle 2- the best side hammers ever built.
Final Destination- finalized the reinvention of the hammer, and is one of the best.

I'll think of more. Whatever Inf named the true-piston-popup he has in INF AI is truly the best of it's kind.

MAXIMUM? I bet that the two the you and me made a couple years ago were better :P

A lot of Sage's spinners could go on this. Nefarious (first 36HS setup on two servos), Oh Snap 2 (First one snapper 36HS IIRC), and Black and Blue (First one green snapper 36HS).


Also Grade 4 Whiplash (also made by Ounce) had the best wedges of any stock bot entered in a tournament.

It did quite well in BBEANS 6, but the general concensus seems to be that it was a fairly lucky run. It's not exactly memorable in the same sense that R4 is. It was reasonably successful, but I'm not too sure about it being Top 100 level.

Well, it would be nice if I had one bot in the Top 100 list, and Missile Test was the only I could've thought of.

yes it would be nice, but you don;t have any notable bots really. Missile Test got lucky that it didn't fight a wedge until DoA2.

Barbed Obsidian. (Luigica was a genius, this was IMO his finest work)
Little Darling. (people around when I started will remember her horrors)
Vise/Frag Beetle 2- the best side hammers ever built.
Final Destination- finalized the reinvention of the hammer, and is one of the best.

I'll think of more. Whatever Inf named the true-piston-popup he has in INF AI is truly the best of it's kind.
Ingor is still better than Final Destination!!

SFTW will almost certainly be #100. Mostly because almost everyone has heard of SFTW. It's possibly the most iconic RA2 bot ever made, just because it was so terrible.

Gyratory Revolt by FB (first robot to utilise servo boosting)

Some of the more overlooked robots of mine that could possibly be considered..

My own creations that discovered new variants of Servo boosting, Gyratory Reborn, Synergy and Unity
High Stakes the first robot to use the Octane Glitch

Centrifugal Force/Fury both utterly useless but some of my finest/ most involved AI work getting them to walk, shuffle and err... kinda... hump other robots  :mrgreen:


And at least half my BOTM entrys could also fill up the creative category some more :P

Have we defined exactly what makes a bot worth top 100 ? Originality ? Innovation ? Combat potential ?

I don't think Destroyer, SFTW, Bane X, Minesweeper, ItI, Rage III, Razor Guy, Minesweeper, Terrible Sight (which was NOT the first implementation of Narmor) should be here.

We should do it by categories. Top 100 deadliest (at the time), top 100 most original, top 100 most innovative, top 100 most iconic. Of course a bot can be in two categories or more.

100 is far too large a number for lists like this. On each list after about #20 or so, you're getting into some fairly obscure territory. Keep the list small, but just present it well.

If it's done like that, then 100 is probably going to be a bit too much. 25 or 50 would work best, I think. However, I

The ENTIRE POINT of this was to get the 100 bots that are the most well-known, innovative and effective bots here. Categorizing it IMO just ruins it, as then all 4 lists would each have like 7 or 8 of the same bots and then what? I already said we can DECIDE on what ones make the cut.

May I draw your attention to the big red bold italic underlined letters. Any deviations from this are missing the point entirely, as we're looking back and celebrating the game and the community. If anything, the list should be titled "the Top 100 Bots that Shaped RA2" or something like that; purposely vague and very inclusive. And still, I would argue that 100 is too long a list. I would prefer a top-10 myself and not much more.

I feel if we had something as small as the top 10, it wouldn't  be fully recognizing the entire history, and we could probably all name the 10 that would go in it right now. This gives more possibility for discussion. But the '100 Bots That Shaped RA2' seems pretty cool.
And I vote uncategorizing it :P

And no popups because they didn't exist back then?

The logic there tries to look at bots that either are iconic to the history of Stock RA2, or helped shape the old Stock into what it is today, i.e. bots using AI parts, new bot types, etc. Aside from people building Stock versions of DSL bots, DSL hasn't really changed Stock over the years.

I'm actually fine with a top 10/25/50/100/whatever Stock + DSL bots though...and I haven't even touched DSL.

Nah, it's that normally you can't use AI components without exterior moderation. DSL is an exterior mod too. Popups can be made without the use of modification, so they're legit, unless they would use snapper IIs. At least with the "no DSL" logic anyways.

These two lines do not add up. DSL has been a LARGE part of RA2 for many years, so ignoring the other half of RA2 bot building seems ridiculous. This is the tenth anniversary of the game.

Sooo can we actually select what criteria are for the top 100 RA2 bots of all time rather than more pointless fighting ?

Maybe we should do this : select four basic criteria (battle worth, originality/innovation, fame and efficiency), note each bot on each of thes (on a scale of 10), add up, and rate the top 100 according to the total points earned.

That's just getting too official and technical. Just go with memorability or contribution to building. As in, bots that either represent RA2 or have helped it become what it is today.

I would prefer a top-10 myself and not much more.


Go through the first robots to demonstrate glitches and you have overfilled that list though :/


50 is a nicer number or... why constrain to a number? Simply "Robots that shaped the history of RA2"


Then none loose out nor end up with gap fillers in the list..

Demonstrating a glitch =/= great influence. In fact, many times innovative design has had a far more profound impact. For example, I'd say that Absolute Chaos was a far more influential bot than GODMODE, even though AC used no techniques that we didn't already know how to do.

Hell, even though GODMODE was the first real demonstration of the power of Hax Mode, I'd argue that the glitch was a minor blip on the radar. Basically, we found a way to break all the rules within the confines of the game, then promptly got it banned from all practical use. Sure, we finally found the final step for ultimate stacking in-game, but what really changed? Not much, save for an extra rule inserted in at the end of tournament rules banning its use.

Slight Bump: What's happening with this? It seems to have died. I suggest everyone sends in a list of bots that they think should make the list, then any bot that gets >2 nominations gets put into a poll/series of polls. The highest ranked robots make the 100. Simple.
I'm of the opinion that anything and everything should be eligible for the poll. Not just stock. It's a celebration of Ra2's 10th anniversary, and everything that it entails. DSL has been a big part of Ra2. (RPP/Mako/SheBeast and the like) and so has Custom (Hammer of Justice and um... the other one.)

DP

We now have 85 bots named on the list that everyone is griping over, so 15 more can make it into the top 100. After this I will start a poll with 20 robots in it each week. This poll will have the option for you to vote up to all 20 each week to see who is worthy of making the top 100. At the end I will tally the votes. If  a robot recieves 2 or less votes it will be removed from the list. If it gets any more than 2 it will go into the top 100 which will be decided by the amount of votes the bot recieves.

I want to have 120 bots in the front list however, so we have a fail-safe in case one of the bots is actually voted out. So 35 more bots will make it into the poll.

And again.

Let's take EMERGENCY, for example. If it weren't in the game, people wouldn't have been so heck-bent at beating it and getting a huge ego boost after they did.
And then there's Lame HS and Symobiote (sorry guys). They're simply novelty bots and builders wouldn't have emulated their chassis structure or general setup on their following bots.

If anything, Second Sunrise should be on that list for popularizing the 'everything-on-a-halfsheet' VS trend.

Wicked Chicken (First Chicken Drill)

lol.  I won't argue that Wicked Chicken wasn't influential, but it was built before FB or I joined the official forums and never showcased.  No one even knows what it looks like.  The only reason anyone even knows it exists is because I named the Chicken glitch after it.  :P
 
Once I'm back home and my internet is good enough to upload my Robot Designs folder though, you may finally get to see it.
 
 
Edit:  Also Diarrhea Of A Madman should be on that list.  It was probably the most feared BBEANS bot of all time--NO ONE wanted to face it.  It also defined MW sledgehammer VS designs for a long time afterward, until the "everything on a half sheet/disc/skirt" craze started.

The bots that I don't think fit here -

BatmobileAI (A pioneer of metal hinge wedges despite them not catching on for another 3 years)
Not recognized enough. For this I would nominate Urjak's Lousy Launcher

Caesium (If not only for being the most memorable FSS in NAR AI)
What ? How is Caesium special other than being one of the first FSS in NAR AI ?

High Flyer (Wild Robots competitor, famous and probably the most iconic robot in the series other than Uber Chuzzle)
Never heard about it
Lame HS (Just for its "legacy", should be ranked really low on the list if it gets in)
Never heard about it

N00BOT (biggest chassis used on an effective Stock bot)
I don't think this warrants being here... it's just an old, crap joke bot

Uber Chuzzle (The most iconic Wild Robots competitor of all time, a popular robot on YouTube)
I have no idea what this bot is again

Also, I do believe Lugnut is just as recognizable as SFTW for being a crap bot. And definitely DOAM, as Click said.

Honestly there's quite a few bots mentioned that I don't know like the ones which won tournaments other then BBEANS, I don't think enough attention is given to the smaller tournaments to warrant the title of top 100 most memorable to any robots unless that robot is something special (like Skinhead due to the turret AI).


In order of most memorable for me it goes:


AI Bots 
BBEANS bots
Popular showcase (INF, Click, Sage etc.) bots
Older Bots (Thumperizer etc.)
Smaller tournament (RAW, Clash Cubes, Tag Team Challenge etc.) Bots


Again I don't think we should include robots just because they won a minor tournament unless there's something special about that robot.

I know none of mine are worth mentioning. Hence, why I have mentioned my only half-way decent bot in a sarcastic manner. The bot that beat yours in that CCII grudge match, actually.

The list will never be finalized or even a rough list, because it will never be agreed upon anyway. So I don't care to begin with.

Alright Badnik, this list needs to have some quality control.

One idea I had was to create a new thread (or this thread I guess) using the list of bots we have right now, and ask people to list which bots they thing should be removed from the list. If any particular bot gets more than say... 10 votes or something, then the bot is removed from the list. Once we at least narrow the list down to bots we can all agree deserve to be there, we can attempt to find enough deserving bots to fill the list completely.

Absolute Chaos Of course
Alien Queen Obviously
Alter Ego III (First 9-mace bursted HPZ LW HS) Yes
AntonYYYm (started the BSG flipper craze after its BBEANS6 performance) Nope. There was no BSG flipper craze.

Bane X (The iconic DSL LW FSS) Yes
Barbed Obsidian (Luigica's best work according to Sage) Maybe
Bisector (made invertible and spin motor hammers possible) Yes

Borg Queen (First Starcore bot ever) Maybe
Bumble Bee (popularizing crawlers and creating controversy) Yes
Caesium (If not only for being the most memorable FSS in NAR AI) Nope. That's a silly reason.
Centrifugal Fury (Some of the best AI work ever done) Nope, it failed. Get another of joe's ai bots here.
Child's Play IV Of course
Cheap Norris (When your robot gets a line in most tourney rules, then you know it's memorable) Yeah
Clockwork Hydra I am doubtful about this one
Crawler (first crawler) Yes

Dark Void 2 wtf is that
Death Port 2 Why not
Death Warrant (One of the best and most recognizable Stock HS of its time) Yes
Death of Angels 2 Yes, although i'm not sure but BBEans champion should be good enough
Destroyer (most versions built of a single robot) ...maybe, I'm not sure
Digital Apocalypse Unsure about this one. It's only memorable because it has been memed up to the max by RFS.
Diarrhea Of A Madman Yes
Domanating's Crocodile (Great example of a successful walker, one of the coolest bots out there) Yes
Drumblebee Yup
E-Rupt Yup
EMERGENCY Quite obviously
Enfilad3 (Probably the robot that began DSL MW popups as we see them today, BBEANS4 runner-up) Possibly, I'm not so sure
Enturon (Consistently one of the best DSL BW Rammers out there) Yes
Event Horizon Yes
Final Z (successful BBEANS6 bot, spawned numerous clones) nah, was nothing out of the ordinary
Flaming Whizzer Yes
Flying Guillotine Definitely
Fury (Iconic Stock MW HS) Of course
GOD MODE (First Hax Mode bot) I don't think so
Gyratory Revolt (first bot to use servo boosting) Maybe
Hammer of Justice Of course
Hazardous Contraption Yes

High Stakes (First Octane Glitch bot) Yes
Hope No More Yes
Hypno (Built by MAD Scientist, first showcased FBS) Of course
I Will Get Shredded (A famous robot, if not for its great run in BBEANS1 despite its name or looks then for its recognizability amongst the RA2 community) ...Not sure
ICED OUT (First Popup) So which popup it is, death port or this ?
Infection 4 (BBEANS6 Runner-up) Maybe
Insectoid Yes, although I have a bit of doubt
Insult to Injury V (Immortalized due to its razor guy run in BBEANS5) Yes
Ion- (Most famous unrealistic DSL bot, first bot to win BoTM and an AI tourney) Nope
Iron Outlaws (first interchangeable bot) Yes, although I still doubt
Iron Spaghetti (Popularized the use of flails in tourneys) Yes
Jex Air 3 (old and recognizable) Maybe
Korium9's Snake (Proof a Snake replica could be done and one of the coolest bots of its time.) Don't remember it
Lame HS (Just for its "legacy", should be ranked really low on the list if it gets in) what the **** is this exactly
Leviathan (revolutionized the UHW, not the first of its kind but popularized it and made it into an official weight class) Possibly
Le\/eL (BBEANS3 Runner-up) Maybe
Little Darling (Old fearsome bot according to Sage) Yes
Logic Probe (The most recognizable AW from Starcore?) Yes
Lousy Launcher (Pioneer of metal hinge wedges) Maybe. although it wasn't the pioneer, it just restarted metal hinge wedge use in modern times
Ludicrous Speed (First torque reaction flipper, spawned ReActive and its clones) Yup
Mako Definitely
Minesweeper Yes.
Morse Code Breaker (innovated a new type of wedge, however the wedge was eventually removed in a patch so this should be ranked pretty low) Unsure
N00BOT (biggest chassis used on an effective Stock bot) Maybe
Nasty Pickle (another robot that has named a glitch) Yes
Neglected Waterbug Of course
Project Trinity Sure why not
Queen Calypso (First IRL tourney champion) No that is ridiculous
R4 Yes
Rabid Pit Bull Of course
Radial Disturbance (BW Bash Champion, proof it is the best BW out there as of now) Eh wat ?
Rage III (Drove itself OOTA and started a meme.) Of course
razor guy (Coined the term "razor guy run" after its surprise wins in BBEANS1) Yes, although I have doubts
Ripper (AON1 Champion, another popular Youtube robot) wut
Ripper Swing (First TRFBD) Yes
Rotation-Powered Pulsar (Killer SnS) Of course
Ryu-Kishin (First BattleBots champion. Proof that IRL doesn't have to suck by beating a substandard DSL bot in the final) I suppose
Second Sunrise (revolutionizing the halfsheet VS) Maybe
Seism 13 Of course
Shebeast (just as memorable as the other two BBEANS2 top robots) Yup
Shinigami (A well-known robot amongst the community) eh
SiegeCraft (The bot everyone saw on Youtube and the bot that inspired us all to create piston bots that could own the stock AI) The original n00b poker ? Sure why not
SkidMark (2 IRL championships and the most successful IRL bot ever. Proof that IRL can be as effective as you want it to be.) wut
SkinHead Yes
Slaying Mantis I'm not so sure
SmashBox 2 Yes
SnSnSnSnS Yes
Spinner from the west Of course
Sweet Poppin' Corns (Best representation of AAM) wut
Symbiote (Awesome, creative design) Definitely
Tempus Fugit Yes
Tha Thumperizer Yes
The bot that beat Sage in "Sage Gets Owned" (memorable for its upset victory) although hilarious I disagree
The Infinite Yes
The Orange is a Tasty Fruit (inspired a new, effective VS design that is still in use today) Maybe
Toriodore (Notorious for being a really tough IRL bot) Noope
Tornado (The most fearsome stock MW of the original game. Most noobs' biggest fear.) Sure why not
Uber Chuzzle (The most iconic Wild Robots competitor of all time, a popular robot on YouTube) No it's a piece of sh**
Ultimate Sacrifice (new design with invincible armor) Yes
ULTIMATUM (HOJ Slayer) Yes
Valid Query 2 (A popular and recognizable robot within the RA2 community, popularized rammers to some degree) Yes, although I doubt it
Volatile Partisan (First to simulate Mecanum-style drive) Yes
Wedge Tracker (BBEANS1 Runner-up) Maybe
Wicked Chicken (First Chicken Drill) Yes

also why not NOT make a 100 most memorable list, and just make a list of the most memorable bots and rank them in different classes (ex. Innovation, Battle worth, Meme)

this list needs more stock ai anyway. Berserker ? LugNut, for being horrible ? Coal Miner ?

It's probably been mentioned before, but a picture and who actually made the robot is sorely missing. Dividing it into categories would help too, as right now that quoted list is just a massive wall of text that holds little interest to me.

"N00BOT (biggest chassis used on an effective Stock bot)"
This is a joke, right? RIGHT?!

I will disagree with Nar, IMO it's better, if there are no categories. 100 bots, famous with whatever.
Although, I must agree, that I never heard about some bots, and some bots don't have a place in here.

Well, Cheap Norris is a pretty controversial bot. This discusion was important, cos it can be built (as a VS bot only) and used in DSL too. It meets all criterias on paper (a bumple ball with a legal/controllable/2WD regular drive or a VS/HS legal hybrid (nothing is touching the ground intially)), but it's obviously designed to loose his drive very fast (the most minimal and light/cheap components was used, pretty exposed by purpose). So it's all about this : will the tournament host allow any loopholing/go wild with the rules or not. Some hosts allows anything, that passes the rules on paper, giving a more freedom for the smart/tricky builders. And as a final argument for my creation, I'll say, that it didn't won, yep, it's not immortal, so...
Also, cheap =/= illegal.
You decide, where is the bound between the VSs or bots with legs with unprotected drive system, and CN.

I'm supporting the pics/authors too! Go pics, go!

Glitching stuff inside something else actually happens occasionally in DSL due to the amount of flail spams.  While it would cause some havok, it won't actually result in super damage.  They will just spin around, dealing minor damage in the teens in a slow fixed interval.

You are of course free to experiment with the physics of course, since you never know what you might find.

I personally think Venko's inventions should be embraced rather than being sanctioned right away. If you want to beat him, come up with something new or enter a similar robot and fight fire with fire. Seriously, Stock is not going to move anywhere and will stagnate/die if the latest innovations continue to be simply banned up front. There is no Realistic Rule in Stock so there shouldn't be a need to ban certain building styles unless the person responsible is actually cheating (Cheatbot2). Manipulating the game's physics to your advantage is skill, not cheating.

Post by: Venko on June 19, 2013, 12:24:25 PM
i dont think it helped that you named it "cheap norris"
Probably, but why a name of a bot even matters here? I named the bot like this, cos it was using the "cheap" 140s, which I hate. It's basically like this : ClickB makes "Hide and Seek" multibot for "Clash of the titans" - "clever use of game mechanics" and clever ClikcB; Venko makes a legal VS/HS hybrid with 2WD, with a powered drive motors, nothing touches the ground initially or without breaking the extenders - "UBER CHEATY BOT ALARM" started by some users, that don't like me. Is this fair? If it's someone else - OK, if it's Venko - problems, problems, problems... Also, remember, cheap =/= illegal. And one question to everyone : what if I built CN with some extender protection, where is the borderline between the "legal" VS/legged bot and CN? How much weight to spend for an extender protection? Why Insect is legal, cos of 4 swords? What if I remove some chassis protection and add 4 sowrds to CN? Will it be "legal" then? CN is imposible to build without the 140s (Trov saw the useless no-140s version), this was my punishment to 090901 for allowing the 140s, that was in my mind when I said, that "I entered as a part of my anti-140s tactic". When I see, that the 140s are allowed somewhere, I enter with a bot, that it's imposible without them, so if I win, I can say : If you wouldn't allowed them, this would never happen :) Although, I didn't won with CN, it's not that much of advantage or immortal.

Now, I will quit spamming this thread.
