Damn. How come some people have a game like this? Was there a special edition that made stacking easier or something?

If there is, I wish I had it!  Stacking anything more than two blacks has always been a pain in the ass for me. :P

Nah, I do belive that it really is just GMF swapping and BFE.
I infact talked with venko and told him a little about GMF swapping(I didnt know BFE back then) and he seemed like he didnt know a single thing about it, or then he was just putting up a show. Who knows? Haven seen him on MSN in ages.

No BFE or AAM done. I don't even know how to BFE, and I have never gmf swapped ever in my life. I was surprised that I managed to cross stack the blacks, since I struggle to stack blacks when making actual bots, and previous attempts at cross stacking blacks were failures.

Probably works since you used a big-ass chassis. I usually leave a 1/6 box of open space so I can stack blacks easier. But what really bugs me is that I can stack 3 blacks but I can't stack 2 anchors into a nifty! /wrist

Xaser, a true popup. 4 razors with plastic armor, two blacks, everything else is visible. Very good wedges, deals out good hits, and good against HS that aren't undercutters.

I like how you place the DDT behind the battery, I don't think I have seen that before, but I could be wrong

6 irons, 6 maces, cb stacked in black battery (my first bot to have this), redbird drive. Probably my favorite bot to use right now. It has a tendency to get under other HS and attack them from below. Holds up against fast razor spinners pretty well. Does okay against popups and undercutters.

Not bad. I like the castors. Looks like theres a good amount of empty space though.

I probably could slant the sides towards the battery, and the space in the front is for the castors. Sage, would you mind if I see your ARBBC heavyweight entry? I'm a little interested in it.

You build good bots but...

Whether it was intended or not, that MW HS is almost an exact clone of a lot of MW HSes I built and have included in my AI pack.

It's okay to clone to learn, but to become a better builder, you should develop your own unique style too.

It wasn't intended. Sorry that it came out a clone of some of your bots.

Its okay, wasn't trying to be vindictive at all. It was just the second time that it coincidentally happened and I wanted to give you an idea of what can be considered 'generic'. You are a new builder so it will take time, but you are skilled.
