User blog:CaliforniaKingsnake/IF King Buxton were to completely redesign, how would you make them?

Recently I covered the bad robots from good teams (although that list is still doing some updates thanks to your input), and one that I brought up was King B.

Now, don't get me wrong, I do like King Buxton. It was a great robot, back in Series 2 and 3. But nowadays the robot is VASTLY out of date. The last time I saw King B win a 1v1 fight was in Extreme 1, and that was ~15 years ago!

So with Simon confirming he's building a new King B, I'm excited, hoping he does genuinely redesign. And this begs the question: what do you think a redesigned King B would be like?

My personal opinion would be for King B to have either an axe or a true flipper, or even both (flipper at the front and axe at the back, sort of like TR2, or if there was enough weight a separate motor for the axe).
