| − | '''CFTW -''' Cube from the West is a Lightweight joke robot that was built for various uses in [[Clash Cubes]], the look and name is a parody from the "legendary" [[Spinner from the West]]. Basically a small cube with 2 [[Shiny Hubs]] and a chewblade just like the real SFTW. Recently JoeBlo entered it in a match with Life Robot Arena2's Super Heavyweight robot [[COID]] which in a humorous outcome won. CFTW was well received by the community.

| − | '''Hypno Blender -''' A robot that was entered in the first round of Brawl of the Builders. noted for being a robot that could man handle others with wedges while not having any of its own, despite beating Sage first round the robot was withdrawn because of a havoking related fault when it lost an external Z-Tek thus dropping out round 1 which meant Sage progressed.

| − | '''Death By Angles -''' otherwise known as the "Controversial Number 2" an Antweight robot that won bot of the month for June 2009 by a rather large voting landslide however was one of the most controversial to win as the robot utilized YU AI Hammers which the rules stated AI parts were legal but there was no specifics to what couldn't be used so JoeBlo was handed the win [https://gametechmods.com/TournamentFiles/botm/june09/2.PNG Splash]

| − | '''Natural High -''' A stock middleweight Pop-Up entered in RODE, was underestimated due to having static wedges but managed to win the first round rumble (which included 2 snapper wedged bots), the match was determined to be Void as the match was found to be filmed in DSL. However Natural High was victorious in the rematch and progressed to the RODE final which Natural High then won.

| | '''[[The Iron Outlaws]] -''' A swarm of Robots that act as a middleweight, basically the robots are all identical except for the weapon system on the end of an internal DDT, JoeBlo can then specify which will compete in a match essentially having a robot with interchangeable weaponry. while it has yet to be seen how effective it it will be, it is noted as it is the first of its kind to enter an AI tournament. | | '''[[The Iron Outlaws]] -''' A swarm of Robots that act as a middleweight, basically the robots are all identical except for the weapon system on the end of an internal DDT, JoeBlo can then specify which will compete in a match essentially having a robot with interchangeable weaponry. while it has yet to be seen how effective it it will be, it is noted as it is the first of its kind to enter an AI tournament. |

| + | '''Servo Boosting Series -''' starting as an expansion on the work by [[Firebeetle]] on Gyratory Revolt, JoeBlo has discovered various forms of Servo boosting robots and has since been known for using servo motors in building, for further reading see [[Servo Boosting]] |
| − | | |
| − | '''Gyratory Reborn -''' an expansion on the work by [[Firebeetle]] on Gyratory Revolt, the robot is basically a giant spinning top that is powered by servos, under servo power it will constantly accelerate like the original Gyratory Revolt however JoeBlo also discovered that under no servo power the bot would still accelerate but at the pace of a perm. Gyratory Reborn is currently entered along side JoeBlo's other bot Gyratory Minion in 1 vs 2. | |

| − | [[Image:Gyratoryreborn.PNG]] | + | '''Chocolate Series -''' The gimmick started out with JoeBlo's BOTM entry "Chocolate" "The Tasty Fullbody Hammer" much to JoeBlo's surprise the concept was well liked by the community spawning a series of DSL counterparts that were entered in [[The Amazing Rage]] |
| | | | |
| − | '''Synergy -''' another of JoeBlo's break through [[Servo Boosting]] bots this time a spinning disc powered by a servo creates a glitch that causes all the servos Synergy used for drive to accelerate like an E-Tek making it a killer SnS without the need for batteries. | + | '''Pyro/ Octane Series -''' More Exploit work and a general love of fire from JoeBlo, a series of flamethrower robots, mostly SnS and Shell Spinners that utilized a range of Flamethrower strategies, for further reading see [[Octane Glitch]] |

| + | '''Strafe Series -''' Robots that utilized a strafe strategy incorporated with normal movement to dodge others, was first present on JoeBlo's robot "Crossfire" but made its first public appearance on Sage and JoeBlo's BOTM winning "Blitzkrieg" |
| | | | |
| | + | '''Road Series -''' Perhaps the less unique series of JoeBlo's but growing to be well known for the crossed weapons set up on rammers, "T-Road 4" was the joint winner of Tag Tam Tornado with Naryar's robot Crown of Teeth. The name came from a term to describe a 3 way junction, adapted to the robot becasue it was intended to stop those that go straight forward into it. |
