Going by how robots in America are armoured, Original Sin is comprised of aluminium and steel, and even then its mostly in the wedge and plow (wedglets are likely to be relatively light when compared). Even if we consider OS to have ridiculously thick armour, Big Nipper, Typhoon 2, Storm 2 and Behemoth's anti-spinner plow should be enough to stop Carbide's spinner. In fact I'm going to ask you a question Jimlaad - in some of the FRA featherweight championships held by Robo Challenge, there is a robot called Mr Mangle. It has an eggbeater as its weapon and can be identified with its roll-over hoops. According to its builder, Mr Mangle is armoured in 8mm thick grade 5 titanium, 1mm than Behemoth's regular scoop. Explain that to me. Also, Mr Mangle has fought two horizontal spinners - Decimator, a robot similar in shape to Carbide but with the power of Tombstone behind it, and NST. The former happened in an Australian event, where both robots slammed their weapons into each (which caused them to break) and one of them died to due to something internal (I can't remember who and the video is one of 600 pages) and the latter happened in annihilator (can't remember the year), where NST hit it one the rear, caused some damage (can't how much) and got its link out.
