TakatsukiYayoi

A builder on the Gametechmods forums. He joined the GTM forums in August 2008. From the naming of his robots, one can tell that he is a fan of Japanese video games, more specifically, The Idolmaster (bots named after songs) and R-Type (bots named after the game's fighter crafts). His name is often shortened to Yayoi, although Naryar often ends up calling him Taka instead. His personal preference is to build in DSL, since he feels he is not competent enough to build in Stock.

He recently entered B5-C Platnium Heart for Clash Cubes 2, and although he defeated COID in a controversial fashion, he would soon be pwned by Sage's entry, Mammoth, and System32's entry, Destiny, denying Yayoi the final spot of the CC2 tournament. He did, however, win a second grudge match outright against LRA2's COID, by ramming him into the pit (after having dropped a fridge on COID).

He is now hosting a DSL BW Tournament called "Micro Mayhem".

Very strongly believes the Alliances and Grudges system only adds fuel to the fire of grudges.

Building Skill

DSL - Decent builder. He is a total Face Spinner addict and many of his bots feature four Iron Spikes on a disk as weapons. His personal preference in pure offensive power over everything else created a very painful and perhaps even masochistic addiction to using 1 mm plastic in DSL; as such, his robots feature a lot of external defenses and quite heavy weaponry for bots of the classes he builds in. Because of this, his bots can be compared to the bosses of the shoot-em-ups he loves - usually has quite good destructive potential, but have very weak internal defenses. However, TakatsukiYayoi pretty much sucks at building any other bot type that's not meant for gut-ripping.

Stock - Not as decent as his DSL bot building is. He cannot even stack to save his life. It doesn't help that his "weakest armor" addiction carried over to Stock. He admits he cannot defeat EMERGENCY with a lightweight.
