Try sticking out the plough just a touch more (To cover the motor), and use the leftover weight to add double razor tips.
Dang it GF, you're fast.

This.
TC, dont try be "cool" and over-use Snappers.
You only need to do that when building a HW.
A MW, you only need to use like 1 snapper.

You've gone backwards there, static wedges suck (especially when you've only got the one!) and the weapon setup is dodgy, plus a disk that big is a waste. Also, you should be able to build closer to the limit than that.

I think it's pretty good for (what I've seen) the first of it's kind, but yeah I'll work on it. The wedge is mostly there for balance. It always gyro dances so I think we'll have to scrap the project.

Change the chassis shape, or add non-wedge stabilizers. At the moment, any other wedge bot's just gonna slip right under it and gut rip you to death.

Instead of using a wedge for balance, burst the wedge instead and give it plows for stability. Never had luck with a MW TS, though (weapon setup's always brittle).
Clash Cubes 1 - Grey Matter (Runner-Up)
King of Karnage - Sideshow Freak (Runner-Up, Best Engineered)
Rust In Pieces - Paper Cut 3 (Grand Champion, Most Dangerous Bot)
Wheely Tag Tournament - Ion Thruster (Grand Champion, along with Ounces' DiSemboweLment)
UK vs USA - Dark Striker (Grand Champion)
Rust In Pieces 2 - Claymore (Runner-Up, Favourite Bot)
BBEANS 6 - Infection 4 (Runner-Up)
RA2 Team Championships - Serious Business, Skeksis (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, and Badnik)
RA2 Team Championships 2 - The Other Stig (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, Badnik, 090901, and R1885)
Replica Wars 3 - Abaddon (Runner-Up, Luckiest Bot)
BroBots - wheebot & yaybot (Runner-Up)
Robo Zone 2 - Dipper (4th place, Survival Champion, & Best Axle Bot)
ARBBC - The Covenant (3rd place, BW Rumble Winner, Most Feared BW)

Not a TS, angled spinner.

But yeah it will probably fail, unless you succeed at making it stable.

*cough* when we rebirth ReStocked *cough*

Its not a new design.. but uncommon. at the risk of sounding like a broken record Tribars get the same reach for about half the weight.. you could attach multiple ones with lower powered motors like Scrap Daddy's gut ripper design.

If you are talking about posting your MSpaint bots here, most likely.

If you are talking about posting artbots, no. Well probably not.
