You don't need all those pinks in that case, you really don't. The robot is overpowered and the pinks just waste space and weight. Best to get rid of them.

Can't you fit any blacks in there? One black can power four HPZs, so you can, and should, use them to power the wheels. I also don't think you need the spinning iron at the front, and those razors are useless as they won't hit anything.

^^More or less agree with Naryar, but I actually think it isn't that good as it is at the moment. But I agree that it's certainly an idea that can be improved apon.

They're too awkward for that, and the surface area of a caster is bigger, so they're more useful overall.
And I only said it was like a juggler cause I was making a comparison. Jugglers use flippers to lift a bot onto their disks, right? I was just thinking the idea behind Skely's was that its meant to flip bots onto its own static weapons, thats all. 252

You should find out what a 'juggler' is aswell, I think thats what your bot most closley reassembles, in that its meant to flip bots onto its weapons.

The caster armour thing only works if the casters are poking outside the bot enough, I mean like half out, and it works best if you build up a sort of wall of casters so that it actually works like armour. Yours arn't.
I can tell theres is a small slope but its not big enough for bots to go up is it? Naryar means a full on wedge at the front, so that robots ride up it and over your flipper(s). If you put weapons under the wedge, you'll have built whats called a 'popup'. And on the flipper front, one is unlikley to be enough. EDIT: Urjak beat me on the caster front... 254

I just failed. Badly. I thought the axe heads were attached to axes, as in a hammer bot. Didn't think it odd that they weren't attatched to burst motors... >.<
But apart from that I stand by what I said. 255

Big improvement, but those castors are nothing but wasted weight. Also, it would be better to use razors or irons as I said instead of axe heads. Axe heads have damage normals which means that they only do damage with a certain part, in this case, the tip. The afore-mentioned razors and irons do not, and neither do maces. You can also put multiple razors/irons/w.e you choose on those extenders. Finally, unless that wedge is there for flipping, you could put it on a smaller snapper to free up space.

Well you could at least try...
Even if it doesn't affect your bot, it really doesn't look good. 257

This might just be me being picky, but: the disks are off centre.

My contribution now;
Best wheels: Shineys. Also instead of using spikes like that you should use either razors, irons, or maces. Other than that, pretty much what everyone else has said. =) 259
