If I'm honest, I was underwhelmed by Sabretooth's performance in Series 10 - its Group Battle and the Rumble aside. Apocalpyse looked certain to beat it in the Redemption stage until broken drive chains and melted wires intervened, while even Donald Thump managed to inflict critical damage which led to its immobilisation in the aforementioned Group Battle. If Team Legion had used the weapon motors from Series 9 earlier on - I recall reading somewhere that they reverted back to the older motors for the Rumble - than there's no doubt that they would've got more use out of the drum.
