Hated bots from Robot Wars..?

I know which one I always liked as a kid - The Wheelie Big Cheese. I liked it for its name, but you be the judge

I'll admit, it was a pretty good piece of design, but it was just ridiculously cheap. (TAN)

Oh and i now definitely dislike razer...

Is it your duty to hate the popular bots or something?

Definitely. We could have had Disc-O-Inferno or Gravity, two great designs, in the Semis or the World Championship respectively. But now. Instead we have a giant pair of tongs on wheels who can't fight effectively without a pit.

One I've always disliked is Diotoir, actually - its design just creeped me out.

And how hard do you think it would be to make TAN?
Great engineering but a bit boring.
Plus i didn't like disc-o-inferno that much.
I liked it but there were others such as Tsunami or Fluffy, even if it didn't work

HOW CAN YOU DISLIKE DIOTOIR?! It was one of the most fun robots ever!

@GF93: Yep. Thank god for Storm II's OVER 9000!!! horsepower drive.

Son of Wyatchi (or however the bastards spelled its name), was very entertaining to watch, but I never tuned in often enough to know most of the robots.

Indeed- It was great to see Cheap as Chips recieve a taste of its own vile medicine

Storm II: "And take that wheel with you, too"

NFX · « **Reply #8409 on:** April 18, 2011, 01:57:32 PM »

I did enjoy how it refused to let go of Storm II, just so it wouldn't go into the pit.

SoW was awesome. I remember when I found out it was a shufflebot and couldn't believe it.

Excellent proof that you dont need wheels to have a combat effective bot.

Drillzilla and Anarchy also proved that comment

I'm listing off the ones I can remember, guys. That is, Wheelie Big Cheese and Diotoir, and I always remember getting creeped out by Diotoir's face when I was a kid
