This article ranks the most successful robots to compete on Robot Wars in terms of individual combat victories. It further breaks down wins within the main UK Championship and total losses for comparison.
- Robots with less than ten wins are excluded from the list for the sake of brevity.
- Robots whose totals contain appearances in international versions of the show are highlighted in grey (desktop only).
Robots are listed as individual entrants, rather than teams. Victories which are not included in individual robot articles (such as those concerning the Series 4 and 5 playoffs) are also omitted here.

Longest winning streak[]
Each UK Champion prior to the Revival Series obtained a winning streak that could rarely be matched by non-UK Champions. The Revival Series broke from this pattern, with Apollo and Eruption suffering intermittent losses within a championship, and Carbide coming back after a loss to continue its streak. Each UK Championship is listed by its winning streak.
The longest winning streak in the main Robot Wars UK Championship is held by Chaos 2, with eighteen victories, beginning with Crocodilotron and concluding with Wild Thing.
Side competitions are excluded due to ambiguities as to when each was filmed (particularly in Extreme 1), along with their secondary status to the main domestic heavyweight championships.
