-_- dude theres pits everywhere and flippers send you into space with wheatly, if you wanted an arena with a pit, i think the dsl robot wars arena would be best cause the ai dont know theres a pit button so it could make the match more fair. the metal skull arena would work as well but i guess we will just have to wait and see what the polls tell us...

if by drill bot you mean like this, you don't really need casters.
Honestly you don't really need casters at all in ra2

Casters are good for armor on the front of wedges and the bottom of most HS and VS.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I'd say that the kenzorg remake needs some love, but the ring arena is probably the best.

If we wanna talk about possible arenas that have almost never been in any tournament to date, how about the ELBITE Arena. While it was made for one person's tournament, but it's almost never been used since. If my memory serves right, that arena has only appeared in a total of three tournaments after the original tournament or it expired and of those three, it was seen once out of those three times. It was only used for showing it's name twice as it never made an appearance otherwise in an actual fight. I feel it's a bit unappreciated and underused. I feel it's a pretty fun arena.

I'd say that the kenzorg remake needs some love, but the ring arena is probably the best.
I agree. Keznorg would be fun as well, but with hazards on? If so, then it's not so much fun since playing in that is practically impossible since it crashes with every time a couple components fly off or a strong hit collides with the opponent. There was a good reason I kept Hazards off for that arena in BTTB Revamped.

I was planning on getting round to this after the mod release but since work is continuing on it for the foreseeable future, I'm gonna move this over to Inactive. If anyone wants to take over, give me a shout.

aw I was looking forward to this
I wouldn't mind hosting something like this but I cannot say how much time I'll have so I don't think I will for the moment. I'll think about it though but don't hold your breath.
