Unlike Clickbeetle and MikeNCR, not all of us are engineering geniuses. So, what kind of real bot would you build if you had that knowledge?
For me, a middleweight crusher. Razer-esque, of course. It would have sloped sides (to imbalance spinners), a steep wedge, and a huge beak. The beak would be serrated, to possibly chew through wires the main piercing attack didn't directly hit.
So, how about the rest of you guys?

That thing is going to lag the game to oblivion. Stick with LWs

This tourney just got 300% better.
Can we do DSL Heavyweight again for BBEANS 4? We've got a lot of DSL builders here.

Well, I've got three (two involving the House Robots, one I saw live).
The first was in an old Robot Wars event called the "Southern Annihilator". The finals featured Razer vs. Onslaught. Razer was having trouble crushing Onslaught, but pushed him to Matilda, who flipped Onslaught. Razer then decided to DESTROY Matilda, crushing her utterly (and perhaps becoming the first 'bot to take on a House Robot and win). It was hilarious. Here's the vid:
In the second House Robots' Revenge, Gravity and Behemoth faced Cassius Chrome, Growler, and Mr. Psycho. Partway through the fight, Growler charged Gravity. "Gravity thinks he can take on our dog of war," said the announcer. One quick pop from Gravity's flipper later, and Growler's been upended. "Oh! And he can!" It was the way he said it that made it funny.
Finally, in a live event three years ago, middleweight Hazard clone (kind of) Papercut's blade was damaged. For some reason, his team decided to replace it with a wooden board. His next opponent was the mean VS Heavy Metal Noise. The announcer said that Papercut would be called "Splinter" in this fight. It proved true. There were splinters EVERYWHERE after that thrashing.

Ahhh...my first combat-capable bot...it was a gigantic box, standard height. It used car steering for four wheels, and was an enormous face-spinner with an HP Z-tek, with only four razors on the disc. I also recall it being lime green...

*Bows*
Greetings, master. It's great to see you back on the forums. You were big back in my lurking days.
Now all we need are JimXorb, spawngeek, and Foolishevil.

Robots have evolved since Battlebots and Robot Wars came into existence. Some old ones, however, remain the best. I just thought people could make compelling arguments as to which bots (of different types) were (or are) the best.
Best FBS: Ziggo
Ziggo embodies the FBS: destroy or die trying. Almost every single match Ziggo has ever fought resulted in a KO against him or onto his obliterated opponent (what usually happened). He was so destructive that being obliterated in combat meant you got "Ziggo'd". While Shrederator, Megabyte and his kin, and others tear up the RFL, none can match the awesome power contained in that little wok.
