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 generally 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, and Sage became a crawler builder as well after entering Bumble Bee in BBEANS5.

Disliked by most of the vets, especially the InfiniteInertia-Naryar duo which attack most if not all crawlers appearing in Gametechmods by criticizing it's homosexuality.
