One of the four armour types in Robot Arena 2. The others are aluminium, titanium & steel.

STOCK

Commonly used on Lightweights due to the weight restriction, especially on Lightweight Spinners. Is sometimes used on Middleweights also, if the bot really needs the weight due to a big & heavy weapon.

DSL

Comes in four different types, Plastic 1, Plastic 3, Plastic 5 & Plastic 10. Plastic 1 armour is the worst armour in DSL (besides DSA), is rarely used by advanced builders. However, Mako, a very successful Vertical Spinner, did infact use DSA. Plastic 3 is a commonly used armour on DSL Lightweights, due to the weight restriction. It has also been used on Middleweights & Heavyweights, although this isn't as common. Plastic 5 is a commonly used armour on Middleweights & Heavyweights, & has also been used often on [Lightweights]], it is alround a good armour choice, having a good ballance between weight & strength. Plastic 10 is a rather heavy & strong armour, which is still used, but not guite so commonly. Builders refer to anything heavier than this as 'overkill'. Overall, Plastic is one of the two better armour types in DSL, the other being Titanium.
