TWO PRONGS CONFIG PLEASE. Quick thing I’d like to address with Vortex. While his augers will be in contact with the ground if he is tipped backward, only the back edges will be, which with their shape means the actual tread will only intermittently be in contact and the radius will change as they ro...

Lightweight: This class is the most spinner-heavy in the event, and most of those are verticals. The two horizontal spinners are also fairly dangerous, and this class has the strongest wedge meta in the event. There’s three sawbots but only one really dangerous, uhh, cluster. Expect control designs...

Sharp skids OFF. I can’t damage him, but he’s only got one point of speed on me and equal control, and my wedge beats his unless he gets to my side. I’m basically fighting as a clampbot here. Be as aggressive as I can, going for head-on attacks and watching out for attempts to angle in. If his maneu...

SKIDS OFF. Flails can deliver multiple hits, but the repeated hits taking energy from the flails will slow them down, so they won’t repeatedly hit at full strength and if you keep shoving a wedge into them they will slow to a crawl or stop. This is especially true for ICEs because they have low torq...

SKIDS OFF. The thing about flails is that while they can deliver multiple hits, the repeated hits taking energy from the flails will slow them down, so they won’t repeatedly hit at full strength and if you keep shoving a wedge into them they will slow to a crawl or stop. This is especially bad for I...

Skids ON. This is gonna be a wedge war. We both have sharpened skids. His have more reach, but have a major weakness: his forks are pointed outward at a weird angle and are really far apart, which leaves the inner edges of the pontoons very exposed to other wedges. Anything that isn’t the point of o...

10 top armor blech. Okay. Skids ON. Come out fast and be as aggressive as possible. Keep my wedge pointed at him and try to avoid getting flanked or angled in on. Keep my claw low unless he’s raising his plow to block me. If he is raising his plow to block me, he no longer has a useful wedge, so rai...

Ears OFF, skids ON. Okay, this is basically a pushing match. We’re very evenly matched in terms of drivetrain, with him having slightly better control and me having slightly better torque, and we both have 2WD wedges with sharp wedgelets. Start out going at him head-on and avoiding any angle-in atte...

Spatula Config please. Wow, I got two finals rematches of my week 1 fights. Welp. So, CME has strong retraction bungees that keep the bot’s weight on whatever the tip of my wedge is. In this case, that’s the spatula. I may or may not get under his actual wedgelets, but my spatula is definitely longe...

Ko config (wedgelets, full power in the spinner) please. I think my strategy from our previous fight still mostly applies. Come out of my square at an angle while spinning up, then stay in the middle of the arena and approach aggressively, taking wide turns to avoid gyrodancing. TMP might be more ag...

Oh boy, it’s finals baby! Start upright. Spin up and get out of my square and away from the wall immediately. Once I’m up to speed, try to show aggression if possible, though he’s likely to be coming at me pretty hard. If he’s attacking head-on, then I want to juke sideways at random before impact. ...

Sharp skids OFF. 12 armor. Rofl. On one hand, I can’t damage him. On the other hand, he’s only got one point of speed on me and equal control, so fighting as a clampbot isn’t that bad a deal for me. Be as aggressive as possible, keep my wedge pointed at him and watch for angle-in attempts. Head-on a...

Okay, so on the one hand, he's very, very fast. On the other hand, he can't really do any damage either by ramming me or using his drill, and he has no wedge whatsoever. My crusher will go right through his armor, but his speed may make him hard to catch. Come out aggressively. If he's trying to be ...
