I gotta say your kinda improving  :claping nice

Unrelated to the bot that splash gives me big eye hurt.

The bot itself is ok

-bringing it up once again if you want to make a robot themed off something do it in a more subtle way instead of just getting a bunch of pictures from google and slapping them on the robot.

-the panel work is super messy and doesn't completely cover the sides of the robot which is super bad since it looks ugly and wont protect your bot as much

-I might be wrong but there appears to be some clipping with the batteries at the front but I don't have a good angle so who knows

-The back hammer support thing is really odd. Im not sure why you have a spike strip but generally it just makes a robot easier to hit if its long so I would maybe make it shorter

The top panels disappear when the bot enters a fight. It just looks messy in the botlab.
I tried to configure the panels so they form a shape similar to the wedge on Beta.

The spike strip actually acts like a tripwire, but it also acts as extra support.
It does need to be shorter.
You are once again, attaching armor to the chassis making it invincible and thus cheating, that aint gonna fly with most people

When you call a parsec again, I'll throw this bot in. You can expect to say goodbye to those armor plates. They won't be there.
Oh, signups are still open and it's 2 entries per person
um ackshually I did not crap my pants

ah yes, blood runner, known for its green color scheme. I think if you know how to skin components at least make them black and red like blood runner would be. Also if you made the wheels larger than it'll be like the actual blood runner, as it is meant to do damage while running over robots

Blod Runner isn't the actual name of this robot. It just looks like Blood Runner, but it's a LOT batter than BR.

Ah yes blood runner. Known for being green.

As for the build i'm gonna be honest the original blood runner was just so much better.

The shape of the chassis was much more interesting and less boxy.

Really there isn't anything inherently wrong with the bot besides it shape but claiming you improved it is just straight up wrong.

Also its just boring. You get that with a lot of bots where they look clean but arent interesting enough to say it looks cool

Ok just realised you say its name isn't actually blood runner but point still stands blood runner is still better than this

This little bot is for my Spanish Class, since we're making a story involving 2 people making a robot and competing (but losing all their matches) in a BattleBots competition.

Name's in Spanish.

As you can tell, it's crap.

Also, I built a new spinner for X-ROGUE.

Double post...
Here's the Tech Wars 1 preview...

I kept the most of the original BattleBots, but for Tech Wars 2, they'll be replaced with AWs, BWs, and an additional bot.

...and here are all the competing bots in Tech Wars 1

Not really sure what weight this thing is but it looks quite flawed.
The lack of wheel guards means the wheels are gonna get blown apart.
The lack of a proper wedge means spinners will end this thing quick especially with such little armour.
The weapon is also quite limited in power as if its one pickaxe it wont be doing much.
The shape of the chassis is ok and better than your previous bots chassis but some extenders might be needed to spice things up.

This is why Don't Boter gets "botered" a lot. It's good when it comes to getting opponents on the wedgelets, so it can then deliver solid hits, but everything else needs improvement.
It's supposed to be an IRL LW.

If you can, use 2 battle packs, also E teks are overkill for such a robot, and especially if they are sticking out of a robot

That E-tek isn't overkill, but I do agree, it is exposed.
That 2-battlepack idea is also a great idea.
How about an Armored Perm-80?

Have you ever used or heard of a flat motor? if so use that.
