Stuff to use

  • DDTs
  • HP Z-tek motors
  • Razor tips
  • Iron spikes
  • Maces


Exploiting glitches

  • You can stack components into each other, using servo or burst motors. Just place components on them and then set their starting positions to wherever you want. The starting direction of servo motors is the direction in which they are first placed.
  • Look for the rupt glitch if you're into flippers
  • Motors spin faster when attached to small servo motors using small/light extenders


Design tips

  • Put LOTS of weapons on your bots
  • Protect your wheels with weapons or large components(Ram plates, Snowplows)
  • Generally Copy what Barbie does, shes pretty awesome at most things, and makes killer creamed potatoes.
  • Use small wedges on burst motors to scoop your opponents up or just get under them
