Keep DSL vs. DSL and Stock vs. Stock in Battles.
Build to the weight limit. Don't use Piglets for drive. Don't leave empty space.

Learn these. Or Naryar will kill you.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Fighting RFS AI in DSL= NO.
Piglets for drive= NO.
Weapons with normals = NO.
Gigundo Chassis= NO.

You have much to learn, young Padawan.

nice but you dont need those airtanks, they are only for pistons

also try ant batteries, it will help you keep you chassis smaller so you can use external Armour

Those black batteries you are using waste weight because the amount of power they have is so close to a battery 5kg's lighter.

The large black batteries in the same dropdown would be a better choice for powering you bot.

The motors you used for drive motors were not intended for drive. Try the drive E-tecks in the dropdown menu with the other E-tecks.

Also why do you have air tanks in there? I don't see any flamethrowers or pnuematic rams in there.

I think he thought the Beta motor was a burst motor and he was doing it for realism.

Space Catapult looks like something you could make IRL.

Don't use air tanks for burst motors.
The big black batteries are better for this bot. (try saying that 5 times fast)
Don't use those motors for drive, use the E-TEK drive motors instead.
Use grippier wheels, like vlads or technoes.

Replace the E-Teks with NPC's, is maybe what I'd do, use the larger 30kg battery instead of the Longs (They apparently suck) if you want that much power, and remove the airtanks. I might use different wheels, too, Mud Runner wheels have a low HP compared to others. Maybe use Technos.

Mud Runners have high fracture, so if he wants to use it with DRIVE VERSION E-teks it's fine.

Take the advice above. Or in this case try to make that bot a middle weight. Just drop the motors down to NPC's and use a slightly smaller diameter disk.

Also the way you attached the disk to the Perm makes it unrealistic.  Use the other attachment point.

1) Build To The Weight Limit
2) Minimise Empty Chasis Space
3) Use Drive Motors
4) Don't Use Long Black Batts
5) Overpowered, Only Needs 3 Ant Batts, 4 Prefferably
6) Use Grippier Wheels, Technos If You Want It Fast
7) Needs A Wider Stance To Be Stable
8) Unrealistic, Cuts Through The Axle On The Perm 80, Mount The Disc On The Other Attatchment Point
9) Don't Use Exposed Polycarb Extenders
10) HW's Need More Than One Perm 80, Use Either 2 Perm *Insert Correct Number Here*'s Or One Dual Perm
11) Listen To Other's Advice

Your Bot Has The Correct Features To Be Good, They Just Need To Be Developed

NPC fasts with technos would be good here if given a wide enough stance. Turning will be a problem though, as it is on VS. Use 4 ants, though 3 should work fine. Use stronger skirts for stabilisers, like titanium and try not to expose the extenders. Dual perm or 6 mag will be better for this (for one disk). Could possibly add more weapons and shrink the chassis. What is the chassis armour?

I started out with Mud Runners on Valid Query 2, and Grog took all of them off in around 29 seconds.
 
Also, it's a big improvement from 1001 Problems, but still a lot to learn. I reckon Badnik's got it pretty much spot on here.
