Do the exact same restrictions apply for multibots?

Ok so now... new predictions.

Widowmaker- And again a HS from Somebody... While it isn't badly built, i doubt about the efficiency of that thing if inverted.

Punisher- It looks very cool, but SLOOOOWWWW as heck =not good on a poker.

HR-E- Jugglers are NOT designed for KotHs.

Equal & Opposite- This one looks pretty nice to me - excepted that it does not look invertible...

BLEVE- Are these 2 wedges, on the front and on the rear, to bring a bot charging BLEVE from behind into the spinner as well? If yes, it's a nice touch. I'm kind of dubious about the self righting though.

Li-ewl Terrier- Hammer arm looks kinda short. Otherwise it's not too bad excepted exposed wheels.

Arcarsenal- One of ROBO's popups. If it's better than Enfilad3 it's going to own - i've tested and E3 performs well on KotHs.

Skirmish 3- Also known as Undertaker. Nice little AI surprise that you guys will see and that hopefully will help me getting faster to the point zone. It can self right all the time, has decent armor, protected wheels, and can flip bots out of the  while making damage. True popups are good KotH bots, though the thing that worries me are the really good wedges.

TDL2- Another of the top competitors right here. Wheels are horribly exposed on a 4-bot KotH though.

Chizzle- First SFTW. Unrealistic-ness won't help horribly exposed weapon motors and lame wedges.

Wegi- While a flipper technically is a great idea on a tabletop, this one is still a SFTW. It could win a match if it gets lucky and falls on non-invertible and non-srimech opponents, but i really can't say why the heck did S32 used exposed polycarbonate sheets for a flipper's weaponry.

Pandemic- wat

Zapper 8,5- While it is one of the best builds here, it would just have been SO much better as a popup rather than a hammer... I can see the primary strategy of this bot is pinning an enemy while hammering on it - but pinning in non-existent on a KotH.

Razor III- I call these hammers 60kg wasted... plus that won't make much of a difference with such HUGE EXPOSED wheels. Not enough razors and too slow for a wammer anyways.

Spawn of Francium- Not invertible. This uses juggler tactics, and jugglers doesn't works on KotHs.

Titanium Chicken- I like this bot. It's pretty nice, though the extender work could have been better and it's probably going to lose to a wedge.

Lion King- This has the potential to fare well, since the weapon height might guarantee complete invertibility.

AIDS = win.

Stock HW spinners is going to be a pure HS fest however, with MAYBE several jugglers and face spinners.

That are the only wheels that fit :P

Wrong. It would be very easy to use Hypno wheels on these magmotors if you didn't raised them more than 1 notch from baseplate level.

EDIT: AAAAH Reier beat me to it

Samurai has never been truly that great. The weapons don't work as pop-up weapons, they are far to long. They way you have your weapons means that it can only kill wedges, yet, with mag motor drive, it will be bulled by bots with NPC drive.

Do you know the previous one had Slimbody drive and just a 25kg orange batt ?

Yes it is not a killer, but hammers with wedges suck and what is Samurai without katanas ?

Quote from: System32;38830
Samuri should have been a hammer or realstic popup.

It is a cross between a hammer, a popup and a wammer.

Samurai - now with wammer capabilities



3mm titanium, 4 ants & 1 battlepack.

A major pain to build.

What Pwnator said.

Plus you don't need that rear ramplate, however you need grippier wheels for more speed.

LiNcK this is a DISC VERTICAL SPINNER, not a pusher. The big disc on the middle SPINS and the teeth do make damage. Plus quad snowplow design = fail.

And Pwnator, I'm kinda sure he did base that picture on the bot !

That's not by fighting against poor bots that you're gonna improve quickly...

Sage went directly to Stock from Starcore V3 (note that i won't recommend it). Look where his bot building is now.

Nice catch on angling the ice picks for making them touch the ground, stabilizing the thing and partly solving the front heavy problem.

It would work in DSL, but it would be a horizontal SFTW in Stock.
