Strategies

Using Nuts and Bolts

Nuts and Bolts can prove good damage to Kevlar armor with its flamethrower weapon. This is a good weapon to use, as you can burn away at the armor while trying to retreat from the opponent. If that breaks off, you can still use the spike at the back to deal damage to the innards of others.

Against Nuts and Bolts

It can be hard get underneath Nuts and Bolts, due to the low ground clearance of the robot. However, the spike at the back can be used as a chock to flip the robot over. Just be careful, though, as the spike can still deal damage to your robot, both from the inside and outside.
