TheRoboteer is a [[GTM]] user who joined the forums in June 2016. However, He had lurked GTM for around 2 years prior to him finally making an account. He first found out about [[Robot Arena 2]] in 2011 when looking for Robot Wars games on Youtube. He downloaded [[stock]] RA2 and played it exclusively without visiting GTM at all other than to download the game for roughly 3 years. A hard drive failure resulted in him losing his copy of RA2 and forgetting about the game for about a year. However, in 2015 he rediscovered RA2 and GTM, and this time downloaded DSL 2.1 and began lurking the forums in late 2015. After updating to [[DSL]] 2.2, he decided to join the forums, but did not make his first post until a few months after joining. He also has a strong like for Front-Hinged [[Flipper]]s, and has produced numerous bots of this type during his time on the forum.
 
 
 
 
 
== Bot Building ==
 
 
 
TheRoboteer plays DSL almost exclusively (built only once in Stock for Banter Wars Series 3), and only builds in an [[IRL]], or close-to IRL style.
 
 
 
His abilities in DSL are average to below average. He recently began using [[Serge]]'s [[Component Freedom]] mod in order to enhance his builds, and has also recently discovered [[BFE]] and has used it to augment some of his builds. However, he often builds quite bland, conventional bots and has failed to make anything really new or innovative in his time on the forums so far. He also gives the vast majority of his bots the same crude blue and grey/black colour scheme, and a crude skin which often merely includes the bot's name. That said, his bots have already found some success in tournaments in TheRoboteer's time on the forum, with his robot Caldera 3 finishing as runner-up in The Cybernetic Colosseum.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
== Notable Bots ==
 
 
 
Strychinine - An entry into the loosely-IRL Redditbots tournament held by the BattleBots subreddit. This robot surprisingly became runner-up in the competition, defying everyone's expectations and beating numerous bots including [[DemonOfTomorrow]]'s [[Polonium-210]], before being beaten in the grand final.
 
 
 
Subterfuge - A Minion disc [[VS]] which was entered into DemonOfTomorrow's Annihilation Nation tournament. Lost in the first round via its disc glitching into the floor, but managed to fair reasonably well in the rumble.
 
 
 
Caldera 3 - A Stinger-esque front hinge flipper which was entered into [[Badnik96]]'s tournament The Cybernetic Colosseum. This robot also surprised many by becoming the runner-up in its weight class, before losing to [[Baconus Yum]]'s mechavore spinner.
