Crawler (Robot Type)

Crawlers are bots with weapons as drive, generally discs with weapons on it attached to a motor. Considered as illegal entries in most tournaments.

They have extremely low grip (means very slow acceleration and deceleration, and very low speed), but more offense and defense ("wheels" aren't easy to pop off and are damaging). Actually, Sage got his crawler (Bumble Bee) to be very fast and have good grip and good control. Most of the time though they don't have good grip though.

A crawler is basically a bunch of spinning weapons so you need to be careful when attacking one.

Most crawlers cannot be controlled easily, but some are known to be deadly.

One of the most famous crawler builders is Venko.

Disliked by a large amount of the community, especially the InfiniteInertia-Naryar-R0B0SH4RK trio which attack each crawler by criticizing it's homosexuality.
