Eye of N00t vs The Maw
Time to go up against the controversy bot! Heh. Also time to finally use my plow against a spinner!
So Eye of n00t has a powerful spinner. That's its strength. But that is also its weakness. It's put all its weight into its weapon, which means its drive is very slow. And because its drum is so huge, when it's spinning at any speed, it will have huge gyro forces if it ever tries to turn. Additionally, its wheels, by necessity, must have a larger radius than the drum plus teeth, or it would hit the ground any time it tried to spin. That means if I plow it head on, it shouldn't hit me at all: it can only make contact if it hits a corner of my robot. And as mentioned before, it's so slow that that will be hard to do.
So my strat will be to rush it at the beginning, collect it on my wedge, and push it under one of those hammers (and/or over the killsaws.) It won't be able to escape because I can push it pretty much as fast as it can drive. If Laz tries something tricky like starting sideways, I'm still fast enough to come around and face it head on. Even if EoN does get a lucky hit on my plow, it's still got 13 armor with the weapon armor bonus, and it will be a glancing blow due to the plow being pretty steep. It shouldn't do very much.
TL;DR: collect n00t on wedge, deliver to hammer, repeat as necessary.
Good luck Laz!
