A multibot is basically two or three bots fighting as one competitor at the same time, but the total weight limit of the multibot must be the same that the bot weight class.

Multibot Designs

There are a few designs you do not want to include in a multibot:

  • Sit n spin: Your opponent will only go for one of your multibots, so the other wont be doing much at all.
  • Flipper: Generally, one of your multibots will not have the strength to flip the opponent, and the odds of both multibots flipping at the same time are not that great, so it is best not to use this design.

In general, the best multibot design are desing that have a high damage potential, such as spinners.

Examples

In BBEANS 2, heavyweight tournament, there were some multibots, actually two middleweights fighting as one heavyweight. These multibot fights weren't deathmatches, but team matches (2 vs 1).


-Double Damage MW (two twin horizontal bar spinners)

-Kelvar and Superstar (one shell spinner and one horizontal disc spinner)

-Sabre (two shell spinners)

As in real life, if you want to fight an AI with a multibot, it's better to call a friend. Or if you can play as two bots simultaneously, it's fine, but you'd better be good.

Sadly (and certainly because less-than-LW bots aren't really suited to fight middleweights even at 2 VS 1), there are no multibots in BBEANS 4.
