Forum:War of the Weapons Selections

Our next competition is the War of the Weapons competition. This will take the format of 8 heats of 6 robots, each specialised by a single weapon type. To be more specific:
 * Heat A: Flipping Weapons
 * Heat B: Gripping Weapons
 * Heat C: Heavy Rotating Weapons
 * Heat D: Lifting Weapons
 * Heat E: Overhead Weapons
 * Heat F: Rotating Weapons
 * Heat G: Static Bladed Weapons
 * Heat H: Thwackbot/Torque Reaction Weapons

The winners of each heat will face off in a Grand Final.

The selection criteria is that the nominated robot must be part of the respective category on the wiki, and can only be selected if one weapon has dominance over the other, and in battle, any other weapons must be considered unusable. To give an example, Iron Awe 2.1 is ineligible to take part as the axe and the flipper can both be considered important weapons. Cassius can take part as its retractable spear is a subordinate weapon, but it cannot be considered a factor in another battle. No robots are considered unavailable for selection on any other basis, as this is a 'best of the best' competition

I put it to you to nominate up to 6 robots for each heat, and I will pick the robots randomly from those nominated, with robots selected more than once being more likely to be picked.
