An Angled Vertical Spinner is a special type of [[VS]], used once in BBEANS 3 by Gigafrost with Darkblade 1.0, and twice in BBEANS 4 by [[Gigafrost]] with [[T I T A N]] and [[Sorrow]] with [[Smitemare 8]] (to a lesser extent). Unlike normal VSs, the motor of angled vertical spinners are somewhat notched to spin at an angle (as opposed to the traditional straight alignment of the weapon). This is theorized to give the bot a greater [[collision to damage ratio]] and helps it self right more effectively. However, AVSs are more prone to losing weapons than normal VSs since they expose more of their extender bars.

PROS:
* Able to flip opponents along both their x and y axis at the same time, moving weapons away from the motor.
* Self-Rights faster than normal VS.
* Easily makes bots unstable.
* Does good damage.
* Great for rolling opponent around.
CONS:
* Difficult to build effectively.
* Still, like VSs, requires a powerful motor.
* Exposes weak parts of extenders on the weapon.
* Smaller area of contact means it may miss hits more often.
