Swap the irons with razors, razors do better as popup weapons


With the extra weight you should be able to upgrade the wedges to green snappers.

Are the green snappers better? Because those snappers are just for wedges...

far too much weapon weight on a single DDT.

So, do I replace the irons with razors or lessen up weapons or both?

Most of the time, DDT wedges are better than green snapper wedges, which are better than blue snapper wedges.

You should put razors on 2 DDTS. 4 razors per DDT is the most you should use.

Not sure I have enough weight to fit in 2 DDTS, but I'll try and see what happens.

I would get rid of the irons and get some ramplates, then 36 hs's won't be a problem

Rotate the wedge DDT's so they're wider.

But wouldn't ramplates kinda stop opponents from going up the wedge?

You can sacrifice some of the chassis weight if you go with a Pyscolone like chassis design. By that, I mean you can remove some of the central back part, and try to fit in 4 HPZ's in the gaps.

A little like this:

wheel l      l wheel
wheel l      l wheel
          l l l l l
          l l l l l

It's lopsided, but you get the idea.

the popup has way too many razors for one ddt, 5 at most for one ddt.

and the extender setup can be done more cleanly.

Hnng, the empty space on the HS is horrible, shrink it down and use 1 extender for the setup, then moar protection!

popup: too many razors, as 4 razors is optimal for one ddt although you can get away with 5 or 6. wedges seem a bit too narrow for my tastes, but other than that is decent

hs: a small chassis works best for nearly all hses. reduce empty space as much as possible, and learn how to snapper load/effe glitch/something so you don't have to place a whole ztek on the baseplate

vs: you can get rid of the empty space on this one too. i would suggest using discs instead of tribars to lower the center of gravity

hammer: hammers are only good for taking out hses and rammers, and looking at yours it'll have a hard time beating either. tighten up the chassis, add a wedge or two, and put the snowplows in a v shape for trapping purposes. the hammers can be curved more too

popup: even with 2-3 razors it kinda pushes bots back instead of really having that burst because poor angle so i decided if it's gonna just push back bots anyways might as well just give it a bucket of razors

hs: i wanted to protect the motor

vs: okey dokey

hammer: takes out most of starcore 3's hs' (one or two exceptions here and there) good against pokers and rammers, but than again i was driving it. if i make the plows v, doesn't that leave the front unprotected?
