The Ounce, aka The Snow Leopard, is a member of the Robot Arena community who joined in June 2009 but has been playing RA2 since November 2008. The Ounce already had a fair amount of knowledge of the game and community but still is noted for his willing to learn attitude. The Ounce prefers building in DSL over Stock, but after recently downloading Starcore v3.0 has gained more interest in Stock building. Likes to draw building ideas from Sage and the Beetle Bros, however his first showcased DSL bot bared a resemblance to one of Naryar's.
Bot Building
DSL- Considered the 3rd best DSL builder in the community, equal to Pwnator. Builds mostly SnSs and VSs (he might be the top VS specialist of all the community), as well as pokers and HSs. Dislikes true popups and building wedges. Likes to keep his building simplistic, and is fond of improving his bots rather than building new designs, resulting in him sending many rebuilds of all of his teams in NAR AI.
Stock- Is good at utilizing most building techniques, but is not the most productive or creative stock builder.
Tournament History
The Ounce has had varied results in tournaments. In some tournaments his success was rather poor (Doomed Bots, Rust In Pieces), and other tournaments he has had great success in (Clash Cubes 3 so far, Back To The Beginnings). Some of his notable tournament bots include:
Go Up Here - A stock MW popup that was The Ounce's first showcased stock bot. Has gone through several revisions. One of its latest was entered in Doomed Bots, where it narrowly lost both of its fights. In a recent tourney Back To The Beginnings, it was rebuilt by Somebody into Go Up Here 2, which ironically lost to Ounce's Fallout rebuild twice in the tournament, including the grand final.
Paraponera 2 - The second installment in Ounce's Bullet Ant series of DSL MW popups. It was entered into Craaig's tournament Rust In Pieces, where it won its first round battle by KOing both of its opponents. It lost in the 2nd round to the eventual champion Paper Cut 3, supposedly because of a Havok that flipped Paraponera over and eventually caused it to be thrown out of the arena.
Telescopic Sight - A DSL HW juggler that was entered into the Epic Showdown against Naryar, paired with Pwnator's 3nigm4. It proved to have the best wedges out of all the entries and is also featured in the NAR AI pack v2.
DiSemboweLment - A DSL LW Popup that won Wheely Tag with Pwnator's Ion Thruster. It is featured in NAR AI and has one of the best wedges in the LW class. It is actually a DSL version of a LW popup that Ounce had made in stock, hence the capitalized letters in its name.
Nuclear Fallout - A stock HW side popup and a rebuilt of Alterer of Reality's first showcased bot (strangely, a hammer). It was entered into G.K.'s tournament BTTB, and won, though having to beat a rebuild of Ounce's own bot twice to do so.
Notable Robots
Stiletto - A DSL lightweight poker which was given the unofficial award "Best first showcased DSL bot ever." by Naryar. Has gone through 6 revisions and is being rebuilt by JoeBlo for an upcoming tournament BTTB 2.
Devil's Rosebush - A 36 mace Stock horizontal spinner which had skinned maces that gave it a rather unique look about it, strangely received no feedback in the showcase.
