Nope, it's a ripoff cause it's a different weight class.

Different weightclass? Really?
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Mike's bot.

Also it's not a clone since it has a different drivetrain, a different wedge and a different weapon setup. 'Tis a ripoff.

Clone = functionally and structurally identical to the cloned design
Ripoff = obviously inspired by a design.

I did say "my take on" Mike's design. So it would be more of a ripoff than a klone, if that. =)

Yet more IRLism. If you've been lurking over on ARC, you may recognise this one.
 

 
6 Astros & Wide Ants, in case anyone's interested. Alu extenders look a bit out of place to me, but it's the best I could manage. 393-ish, more chassis height BFE, and yet another 512x512 skin.

awesome, another bot from ARC. This one never saw combat, even though it was entered in a tourney, right?

Correct. The tournament hasn't gotten off the ground yet. Though this version is far less wedgy, but who cares.

Nippy enough, I'd say. That's a good way to describe it. Fast enough to get the the opponent, but not fast enough to forward-flip out of the arena on the first impact.

Nice. If there ever is a Battlebots 6, your team should be comprised of ARC bots.

Back to some Regular DSL Building, and the first draft of my NAR AI team. You will have seen some of these before.
 

 
Fly Trap: 2 razors, 4 light DS Teeth. Astro drive, also invertible. I forget what armour it has, probably Plastic 1.
Mouse Trap: Basically Puncture III, but with a less exposed CF Extender. Plastic 1, but it doesn't need any more.
Rat Trap: Also Crab Salad IV. Lots of weaponry, strong drive, and pretty tough. A well-balanced machine, I reckon.
Bear Trap: Showcased previously. Nice and wide to take out spinners and the like, outweapons most other MW's.
Man Trap: Also previously showcased. Invertible, very damaging, good against anything that doesn't outweapon it.
Death Trap: Invertible Drum/HS Hybrid. 60 Light DS Teeth, Normal NPC's for better HP. 6 Ants, and good chassis protection.

Didn't I beat it, though? =P
 
I didn't think of that while I was building it, though. I seem to do that more often than I probably should.
 
Also, Death Trap close up for anyone who's interested.
