User blog:CaliforniaKingsnake/Top 10 Least Favourite robots in all of Robot Wars

This was inevitable wasn't it? At some point everyone looks at one of their favourite things and goes "Hmmmmm, what DON'T I like in this show/game?" Which brings me to this list. Now keep in mind that these are my opinions. Also, for those interested, I'm ranking these based on how both the robot is and how the team is, because some teams are annoying while their robot is good, and sometimes it's vice versa. So let's begin.

Number 10
There is always going to be a robot that is popular for often no reason, which is sometimes justified, but with such an arrogant cocky and downright irritating team one has to wonder how much of Stinger I could take before I just didn't like it. Yes, you've read right, Stinger is on this list. Why? Because like i said, the team are annoying at times. I'm serious, time and time again I hear them go on that they will go all the way, and that they're the strongest robot out there, but it's just not entirely justified. However, Stinger's only at 10 because I do like the robot itself. It had a unique design, caused damage, and was even quite a bit of fun. It was the team's cockiness that puts them here.

Number 9
Everyone knows how overhyped up Mortis was, but in my eyes they were not as overhyped as this entry, and while the team were such kind little sausages, I'm afraid Gemini is just dull as anything, and doesn't deserve all the hype it got. Now don't get me wrong, a clusterbot is something they were waiting for. But in EVERY battle they were in they were so overhyped. Hell, the producers 100% tailor made their Mayhem qualifier in Extreme so that they could win, AND THEY LOST. TO NAPALM. Not only that, but take a look at their heat in Series 4 in comparison to Mortis'. Mortis had Crusader 2 (who proved dominant in their melee), Mazakari (a potentially powerful disc), Steg 2 (former Grand Finalists with a potent flipper), Iron Awe (potentially nasty axe) and Cronos (the exception). Meanwhile Gemini had: Berserk 2 (might be seeded, but it has no srimech), Kater Killer (no srimech), The Creature (no srimech), Invertebrat (which had a faulty flipper) and Tornado (the dark horse the producers weren't expecting). Fact of the matter is, if Mortis is overhyped, then Gemini is more overhyped.

Number 8
This robot's on the list purely because it seemed that it didn't want to quit, and kept on failing time after time, and had it retired at Series 5, King B would have not been here at all. Now don't get me wrong, when I first saw King B I did like its simplistic design, but eventually they started to wear thin, and they became very consistent with a Round 2 of the Heats loss, that makes things a little bit more stale. I mean, think about the most recent series. Had Glitterbomb qualified things would have been much more interesting; but their weapon just wouldn't work (Damn you Scotland with the cold weather) leading to a quick loss at the hands of Dantomkia. No clue how far Glitterbomb would go, but it'd be more interesting than King B.
