Changes

Starting from May 2018, [[FOTEPX]] made a new BOTM, which featured bots from various metas of RA2, such as Stock, DSL, Ironforge, Custom, and Replica. The DSL Meta is further divided into DSL-IRL "Chassis focused," "[[extenderbots]]," and "DSL-S", while other custom parts are merged into the Replica class.

BOTM was soon turned to the New BOTM format, starting from New BOTM-September, which features four different categories: DSL-IRL Chassis focused, DSL-IRL Extenderbots, Unrealistic/Standard, and Custom (which also features replicas). Though for the first two New BOTM, there were only three categories: DSL-IRL, Standard/Unrealistic, and Custom. The winning bot of each category is also displayed on the front page by randomly changing splash, which changed as the front page is reloaded, displaying one category winner at a time.

Though for the first two New BOTM, there were only three categories: DSL-IRL, Standard/Unrealistic, and Custom, due to both DSL-IRL chassis focused and DSL-IRL Extenderbots being merged into one category as a result of one category not reaching the minimum required entries to be eligible for separate category. The winning bot of each category is also displayed on the front page by randomly changing splash, which changes when the front page is reloaded, displaying one category winner at a time.
