It's another IRL bot, but it looks pretty cool. Nothing wrong with IRL building.

Showcase cleaned. Nothing important, but this is a showcase, not chatterbox.

We don't need pseudo jonzu drama in there.

What's the point of those skirts? It won't get under any decent wedge, it looks ugly, and it's blocking the weapon. It's going to be extremely fragile too with plastic 1 armour. Remove the skirts and try to get some more armour. As for the battery, 3-5 batteries will do fine. Due to a glitch in the game's code all spin motors only need 10 amps to run at full power. Otherwise it isn't too bad.
Oh I'll be doing some banging.......

How long will the batteries last though?With this set up I run low on power a minute before the match ends. Also the skirt works for many AI bots in the game which is what I design around. Whether it's ugly or not? Not a concern for me personally. The armor is a risk but with this set up, if it's working, they barely ever touch the armor.

3 ants will drain almost half way through the full match. And with that weapon and wedge setup the bit could easily become unstable and be extremely vulnerable.

all dose teeth

You don't need all those teeth to be honest, it's wasting weight. Also try to cut down a little on the empty space in there before Naryar has a heart attack, I know it's IRL but it can still be done.
Plastic 1 = You're screwed.

Definitely way too many teeth to be IRL. Axle should be inside the chassis or supported.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Well besides the IRL stuff (Changed it to be named standard. I don't know or care which it is but I'm never right when choosing one.). I have so many teeth to outlast bots with heavy up front weapons. Previous designs made those bots difficult. It's so big to keep it balanced. The more surface area closer to the ground allows it to be more stable. The skirts are needed to avoid flipper bots, they do work for the bots currently in-game. The armor in this design isn't touched by most bots. There is no reason to up it.

Anyway, there's my explanation for stuffs. Hope you enjoy either way :P

It is IRL to me. It's not like people spam beaters on drums (which are far better weapons) and are told "IT'S NOT IRL, TOO MANY WEAPONS"

You need invertibility and at least 4 ant batteries though.

i dont think its a stretch to call it irl, but you have to put on a lot more support extenders to the drum with that many weapons tho

Simply put, it's made for pushing/ramming things. (I tried adding a flipper to the front part, hence all the open space. I'll continue trying to make a decent flipper bot but it's challenging for me.)

Oh, and batteries are left over, lol. Woops! xD

Can it really do anything though? Would recommend an alternate weapon configuration at the very least.

Looks nice, clean and symmetrical.
It would benefit from a good skin and additional frontal armor/weaponry though.



Camemberta won the third prize at BB9.
Also apparently she was real lucky.

it needs an actual weapon to do stuff other than very low damage and pushing things.

In excitement for Robot Arena 3 I've made a new robot to share.

It's design is based off ripping and flipping. Tearing into a robot, or it's parts, while the spikes get into, or under, their chassis to lift them off their wheels and create an unstable environment for them while still destroying them in the meantime.

Edit: This bot was made pretty quick. Not the prettiest thing but it's fun to battle with.

Name: Tribute | Class: MiddleWeight | Weight: 390.1 | Armor: Aluminum 5

it has a huge chassis and lots of armor. i also feel that if you're going to make it a VS/rammer like that, you need all your spikes in front.

seems like you'd be better with more weapon weight as well.

also pole spikes are meh.
