https://i.imgur.com/MWGvmg8.png [hr] [hr] We live in a world of superheroes. From the big screen, to Netflix, to cable TV, books, comics, cereal commercials, and goddamned lunchboxes, they surround us. Shame none of them are real, eh? Shame most of them are so derivative too. We all know the archet...

Official Monsterworks Entry (#13) Tell me, friend: do you like bad music? Are you a crustacean enthusiast? Do you, perchance, enjoy dancing? Have you ever watched this video before? You may believe that this qualifies you as 'crabcore'. If you do, I'd like to take a moment to put the brakes on that...

MADSCIENCE: 16/1+5/1/2/10 (+2 teeth) Nuclear Plague: 5/3/1/14/7 Unless it's masterful misdirection, based on what he's said in discord (laying the foundation with some 'questions' and trying to build a consensus) Dylan's probably going to 'debunk' MADSCIENCE a whole bunch, mostly ignoring that this...

Abyss : 4/2/1/16/7 Visual Assault : 6/5/5/5/9 (+2 plow) Gabe'll claim this fight's all about his torque and his wedge. He’ll rationalize away his mediocre speed and terrible chassis armour and he’ll dismiss my drivetrain and wedge because he’s a bit faster. This isn't as simple as “almost, Alex, bu...

Abyss: 4/2/1/16/7 vs. NKC: 7/5/2/5/11 (+2 wedge) Dylan is probably going to be very confident in his plow and drivetrain. He's likely to be aggressive, rushing and trying to smother my slowish spinner. Thing is, he only has two torque, our wedges are equal, and his control ratio isn't great. Neithe...

MADSCIENCE: 16/1/1/2(1/1/1)/ 10 (+2 teeth) vs. Venice Queen: 10/8/3/1/ (+2 plow) Gabe knows that he can't take any full speed hits, so that means that two things: a ruthless dissection of why my bot won't work, and a box rush. He'll probably pick on my ability to escape him. The fact that I spin up...

I’m not going to try to measure dimensions on here, especially with the thumbnail-sized pics that he provided but, suffice to say that we’re both super-wide 2WD drums. The main difference is that he’s a control spinner while Abyss is a power spinner. In terms of ability to damage each other, I obvio...

Okay, so I’m 99% sure his strategy is going to be ‘box rush and yeet out of the arena’ because it’s really all that he can do. I’m sure that lots of people would love to see the underdog with the ballsy strategy win, but I’m going to just remain steady and present a rational case. Wanna know why? He...

I can't be high-centered. I also have unbeatable torque, an unbeatable wedge, and Momma Bear levels of armour. Use them. At the start, plow headlong into the triple spinner clusterfuck between Gabe and I. If he sticks to the plan that we came up with on discord, he should be doing the same from the ...

r/NotTheOnion 6/5/5/0/14 So, it's a pushy uberbrick with 14 armour and 5 torque. Seems pretty bog standard. There's a reason for the name, though. If you rotate that render linked below a little bit, you'll see that it doesn't just have one set of hinged skirts around its sides. Nor does it have tw...

Sixpounder: 8/7/4/1/10 (+1 plow) - wedge teeth on, shortpipes on, other body cladding and wedge stuff off Black Doggo: 6/4/1/14/5 (+1 drum) Black Dog is supposed to be the ultimate brick killer, but that's mainly because most bricks approach it like any other spinner. If you wedge it, it still mane...
