The Edge

The Edge was a fictional competitor robot from the game Robot Wars: Extreme Destruction. It was a high dome shaped robot armoured in polycarbonate and armed with a high scoop at the front, a carbon cutting disc at the back, and 6 hollow spikes around the side.

Strategies

Using The Edge

The Edge has surprisingly high pushing power despite it's chassis shape, due to the power in the motors and the scoop, and as such, can shunt other robots around the arenas into pits, traps and house robots. The carbon cutting-disc on the back of The Edge has high damage potential, and shouldn't be dismissed as an oppurtunity to cause damage. However, neither of The Edge's weapons enable it to self right, so keep away from flippers on opposing robots.

Against The Edge

The Edge is a difficult robot to beat without a flipping weapon, the polycarbonate armour provides good protection, even against destructive weaponry. However if armed with a flipping weapon, one could use the spikes as chocks to get in underneath and toss The Edge over. It would be a useful idea to keepa way from the scoop, as The Edge can push robots around with it. Another move would be to stay away from the Carbon disc on the back of the robot.
