Notable Robots
Trojan Horse - Pwnator's first tournament bot, and also his first combat-effective bot. Though its wedge attachment is considered inefficient and its use of irons isn't recommended, it still managed to have a good run in BBEANS5, and also competed in the rumble.
Grey Matter - His first DSL bot, and competed in Clash Cubes 1. It uses Mako wedges and finished second place, behind Somebody's SnSnSnSnS. It also spawned a SHW version named Dark Matter that competed in Clash Cubes 2, but didn't perform as well as the original. It is also featured in the NAR AI pack, but a newer version will be used for the next release. A MW version is currently competing in Clash Cubes 3.
Jigsaw - A hybrid with 2 DDT side clamps and a servo-controlled Z-Tek VS, and is one of Pwnator's favorite bots.
Quasar Series - A series of MW popups with the first 2 version being attempts at the Pyscolone popup challenge, the latest version now has DDT wedges and a very shallow chassis wedge. It is now entered in WRL2.
Infection 2 - A rebuild of the old Infection from the NAR AI pack, it has NPC drive and great skirt wedges. The 4th version has a metal hinge wedge and is now entered in BBEANS6.
Paper Cut Series - A series of DSL MW popups, with the first one in the NAR AI pack. Its second version was initially criticized by Reier for being a Zapper clone, but it eventually developed into a different design for its 3rd rebuild. That version was also entered in Craaig's Rust In Pieces tournament, and surprisingly won even with average wedges. Its wedge issue has been solved in its latest version and now has small wedges, which makes it one of the wedgiest in its class.
Ion Thruster - A LW DSL VS that alongside Ounce's DiSemboweLment won Wheely Tag. Is in NAR AI too.
Helix 2 - A unique HW drum that has the top drum spinning downwards, to act like a trapper. It entered Terror Twisters, but lost in the second round.
Core Drill - A HW quad FS that won the BOTM competition on March 2010.
Ejector - The first ever DSL MW VS that has 2 70kg hammers on a Perm 132. The core setup has been used on many of his later bots.
Hot Wheels - A HW popup and is currently Pwnator's wedgiest stock bot (and one of the wedgiest bots ever built as well). Equipped with 12 razors on 2 DDTs and protected with 4 ramplates and 5 casters, it's also adept at dealing 1-to-2-hit KOs.
