Overall, try to use ant batts on these.  Your FS probably doesn't need more than 4-5 ants, and your LWs could do well with just three.  

For your flail HS, maybe adding some protection to the bottom of the magmotor would allow you to last a bit longer against gutrippers.

And don't worry about being hated for posting a certain bot type.  I don't really see any reason why any bot type should be hated, because all designs have their weaknesses.  Besides, comments like "flails are teh ghey" are empty statements anyway :P.

Your FS isn't bad, but bear claws = normals = not a good idea, and Ounce is right on the battery power, you would be better with 4-5 ants.

I am not going to comment on the crawler and the flail HS because yes, they are teh ghey.

SHS looks the best of all, but you definitely need 3 ants for that because it's going to deplete it's batteries very fast.

For the Flail HS, I don't see why the axles are at an angle.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Joeblo said something about angled flails performing better against wedges, but if DK says that it doesn't perform that well against gutrippers, then I don't see the purpose of having them angled.

Don't worry, I have the perfect solution for you:

Seriously though, I'm starting to get sick of your negativity.

Now that's an idea.

vertical flails preform well against wedges, horizontals ones are the normal way to go but diagonal ones act almost like static weaponry so best be shifting them another 45 degrees DK

If that thing can beat HNM, then I'm scared.  Also, I think the spike strips would do better if placed on the side panels.

Wedges are better with built up speed. For a true test, go into the combat arena and charge head-on. For an even better test, AI it.

^^ Clearly. A real wedge test is AI-ind your bot and facing... i think Second Sentinel or Century Storm in the hazardless Combat Arena.

FUN:

1 mm titanium. Hard to control, but fun to use. Hasn't actually been in a battle yet though, just in the testing zone.
Also, I wonder if any of u can geuss what inspired me to make this bot?
