UK Finalists

This page lists all the robots that ever reached at least the Series Semi-Final (or in the cases of Series 1, 8 and 9, where there were no Semi-Finals, the Grand Final) of the Robot Wars main competition.

To avoid confusion regarding the performance ratio of robots that only entered one series, this page is split into two halves. This first half is for robots that made multiple attempts at the title. The second half of this article is for robots that made one single attempt at the title before retirement or, in many cases, the show's hiatus.

Multiple Appearances

Notes

• Competitors are listed by team where they entered multiple robots into the main UK Championship competition. Robots from side events and other weight categories are excluded.
• Competitors are listed alphabetically where the ratio is the same from the same numerator and denominator (i.e. Bulldog Breed, Dartford Girls Grammar, Plunderbird, Team 101).
• The success rate is determined by the following equation:

Success rate = Heats won/No. of appearances x 100

  • For Series 1, reaching the final is deemed the same as placing fourth in Series 2-9.
  • For Series 2, being eliminated in the Semi-Final Gauntlet or Trial is deemed the same as losing in the first round of the Semi-Finals. Being eliminated in the Semi-Final Arena stage is deemed the same as losing in the second round of the Semi-Finals.
  • For Series 8-9, being eliminated in the qualifiers is deemed below fourth place, but above the second stage of the semi-finals.
• In the case of an equal placement, robots are listed alphabetically.
