Mako
Mako was a Heavyweight VS built by Jules for BBEANS 2. Jules also competed in BBEANS 4 with Diarrhea of a Madman. The first match vid against Wreckless has been lost, but it is easy enough to figure out that it was a KO. Mako was one of the best bots in BBEANS 2, consistently KOing bots and throwing them over the rail. Mako broke one of the cardinal rules of bot building, with its chassis being almost entirely filled with absolutely nothing, making a big target for bots to aim for when attacking the weak chassis. Mako popularized Axle Wedges, also known as Mako Wedges. Mako was included in a special team in the DSL 2.1 mod, and can be fought. It has since become a proving ground for bots. Mako was extremely hard to get under, and even when you could get under it, the hammers would pound the top of your bot, KOing it more times than not. A new version of Mako, Mako 4, was entered in Sage's tournament, RAW. Jules is ranked 7th in BBEANS Standings.
