bruh every single design in your tournament was super weak against any side swiping horizontal spinner, most of the entries were either a narrow pile of arse with sides that are beyond easy to sideswipe, or they were some box with a wedge that was hella useless once the front wasn't facing the opponent.
i've always said that these kinds of tournaments isn't about any driving 'skill' but more about punishing mistakes by the opponent, and if the opponent has some dumb design that is easily exploited by one of these terrible designs with a very basic weapon type that works against those bots, then you cant really make any conclusions based on that other than 'this bot type works well against this'. either your drivers are awful at driving their bots, or their bot inherently is going to lose to that type of bot, and it all depends on which of the drivers' mistakes the other bot is able to capitalise on. driving does not matter nearly as much as you think, it is just a fact of who can punish more mistakes by the other driver with respect to the bot types that each person is driving. even if you held a similar tournament with all the same bot types (or even the same bot altogether), it wouldn't come down to whoever was the 'better driver', but whoever was able to punish the biggest mistake first. when you add in inherent bot type weaknesses to a tournament that is meant to be a test of driving skill, it really doesnt show much about any driving skill from either side until there's some big upset. even if this was an ai tournament, his weapon style (a basic ass horizontal spinner) would've beaten any of those wedged vertical spinners with hardly any weapons, let alone the ones that are super narrow and easily sideswiped. 100% this kinda stuff is easy to see if you build a bot type that has glaring weaknesses like this. 17
