The second rendition of Sir Stabsallot, Slice n' Dice.
The only changes I've made are:
4x 80 cm Angled Aluminum Skirt
1x 80 cm Aluminum Skirt
2x Copal Gearmotor
2x Ant Blade
4x Ant Battery (just so the gearmotors wouldn't drag that much power down, even at 2 amps.)
The front and back wedge scoop the opposing bot up, directly into the blades!
(if there are better back mounted weapons I should use, do tell)
(I also got rid of the weapon slave hex plates, the 40 cm extender, the razors, and the angle connectors)

EDIT: I scrapped the master hex plate, the gearmotors and the ant blades to make just a wedge. I then used the extra weight to upgrade my armour to aluminum 5 and change the skirts to titanium.

The skirts are looking a bit useless too - maybe you could turn it into a wedge? :)

Yeah! I think I could make it into a wedge if I were to extend the front and back skirts, which should (hopefully) work. I'll also see if I can place some sort of spike(s) as well, just so I'm not pushing bots about. I originally but the skirts there because most of my previous designs had a tendency to "get rekt" by VS/VH/VA's, causing the weapons to fall off. I'll see what I can do.

3x Ant Battery
4x Baseplate Extender (black n red thingies)
2x Vlad Wheel (is invertible!)
3x 20 cm Aluminum Extender
1x 40 cm Aluminum Extender
2x Angle Connector (90* option)
5x Razor Spike (razor for best spike)
3x Hex Plate (1 master, 2 weapon slave)
2x Skirt Hinge
4x Angled Aluminum Skirt (40 cm)
2x Aluminum Skirt (40 cm)
