No one is "willing to forget", TG, it's that people are always very reluctant to play the reliability card, especially since we don't know why it broke down. If we played the reliability card, Razer would be impossible to vote for in Arena battles.

Also, whilst Knightmare didn't have the best flipper, it still functioned as a pretty decent wedge. Look carefully in its first round battle and you'll see it not only managed to outwedge Spawn of Scutter, but push it back. A lot of the robots you've listed that it can't beat, it could certainly outwedge and certainly give them a solid fight (Kronic and Eric especially).

I do want to stress something, though: despite what you keep insisting, Knighmare is not overrated. People recognise its flaws and, also, I've never actually heard anyone say anything about Knightmare, certainly not on this wikia, other than "It's OK", "It's alright" or, as Jim himself used, "It's decent". Those are literally middle-of-the-road remarks. I don't see how a robot people think is OK at absolute best can be considered "overrated".
