HOPPIN THREAD RIGHT
must be all the activity in the "whine about the playground thread"
its ok i have more robots of questionable quality
ok so popups are wicked annoying and have no real counters (except sns which counter everything)
and ironforge bots flip all over the place so it's a pain to make a stable fast robot
SO I WAS LIKE SCREW BOTH lets make a robot that everybody hates.
thus
it's """not""" a crawler ok the weapons don't touch the ground
alu 10
it takes advantage of what makes Beer Goggles so friggin annoying.
1. it never spends more than 5 second per match with its wheels on the ground.
2. big ass spinny weapon.
therefore it treads the fine line between "wow reier that robot is so cool here's a million dollars for my gratitude" and "wow reier i will kill you with indiscriminate application of nuclear fire for making this robot"
to be completely honest there aren't many popups in the pack, so I can't really test it to its fullest.
except the obligatory doofus montage
basically in case you haven't figured it out it is
supposed to ride up on top of things and just grind like the dickens. Most popups don't have many weapons, so the idea is that it should knock off the weapons or the armor relatively quickly leaving its opponent defenseless. Obviously a robot is never finished and I'll be tweaking this thing a ton but initial results look promising. It's also extremely hard to land a good hit on due to its instability and even if you do it's got tons of armor.
aka "its super annoying to fight against"
If I changed it, I'd try to make it absolutely as durable as possible. I might switch the ninjas for something else but I don't know what yet. PROBABLY CRUSHING TEETH or more likely something 2-sided so it can spin the weapon both ways
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
