An Angled Vertical Spinner is a special type of [[VS]] (or more accurately, a subspecies if you will), introduced first in [[BBEANS 3]] by Gigafrost with [[Darkblade 1.0]] (though arguably the first Angled VS was [[Sadrabbit]] in BBEANS 1), and then used in [[BBEANS 4]] by [[Gigafrost]] with [[T I T A N]] and [[Sorrow]] with [[Smitemare 8]] (to a lesser extent). It is a fairly new type of style and, 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.

Another (slightly) Angled VS is [[123savethewhales]]'s VS [[Star Dust]], entered in [[BBEANS 6]]. It is a fairly new type of style and, 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. AVS can also put more weapons on target though, as seen by the weapon setup on [[Sadrabbit]], where weapons can be put on the from portion of the disc and they will hit the target too. The discs also provide better protection for the motors.
