Yeah okay. Barred drums.
Back against the wall and just keep the mofo away from my sides. Spin the drums up and keep them pointed towards him at all times. I'm not worried about the jaws or anything... I actually have higher torque, so if he tries to clamp down on me, I can push him around, to the nearest Killsaw. If he wedge-lifts, just grind up his weapon. Armor of eight will hold up but it won't reliably keep me on the hook for his benefit. Tear him up as much as possible and try to get my points into the high teens at least. I'll only use the rear wedge if he's too far behind me/close to my sides for me to turn and get the drums in on time.
You don't need luck, Chris. See you in the arena. At least buy me dinner first before you raep me.

He's got a powerful weapon on him (11 WP)...fortunately for me, I have 8 armor that can hold up pretty well and can withstand a majority of the hits he'd give me in this one. However, the big strength I have here is my drive advantage - I have more than twice his speed, twice his traction and can hopefully get around him and avoid his spinning drum all match long. Factoring both of these things, he's going to have a hard time executing a good attack strategy...
I will come out with my lifter front and go straight for his sides, trying to avoid his spinning drum at all costs. Assuming I can pull this off, I will raise the lifting arm and toss him over the saws. The saws will be important because they can do some good damage to his treads. Despite his 8 armor, having treads sliced up might really fuck up his drive. If I can also get one half of his drive elevated off the ground, I will clamp down on him with the lifter and carry him over the saws and hold him there for more prolonged and precise damage. I will do this for the majority of the match.
If I see he's coming up on me quickly and about to strike me with the drum, I'll quickly thwack in place and try to knock him away as a quick defense.
If he manages to strike me with the drum...like I said, I can hold up for several shots. So if only gets one or two hits on me, it shouldn't do that much, at least I hope. The thing I'd probably have to be most worried about is him flipping me (which seems so much more likely if he can get me from the side) and him striking one of my wheels. In either scenario, it basically means don't let him get to my sides! This is key for my defense. If he does manage to flip me, however, I can at least still thwack him pretty effectively. Essentially, my strategy will be to maneuver to his sides but use the thwack arm instead and try to strike him over and over again.
Good luck!
