-I've never actually had a chance to use a multi-bot yet so this should be fun.

Yellow: Fun for who? You see he's got us all beat in speed right?

-Yes, but there are 3 of you and only one of him. We just need some efficient planning. First things first: we'll have Yellow and Black go after either side, while Red runs distraction duty at the front.

Red: Why do I have to be the decoy? Send Yellow! We can afford to lose him!

Yellow: Excuse me? Who's expendable? I believe you were the dead weight most of the time in the last tournament.

-Cool it guys. Now Red, you can use your thwacking ability as needed. I'm not asking you to let yourself get flipped all over the place. Besides, as long as Yellow and/or Black do their job, you'll be fine.

Black: Why didn't you mention me first? I'm totally the best after all!

Yellow: You're a booby.

Black: Booby yourself!

-Continuing on... So Black/Yellow should either be able to get under the skirts by some combination of using their drums and their scoops. That should make it hard/impossible for MoD to move. At that point, Red should be free to help out and try to push MoD along into the walls and hazards. Using their drums a lot should really help keep MoD off balance.

-From there, whoever is closest to MoD's front at any given time will run the distraction while the others concentrate on getting to MoD's sides and back.

Black: Yeah I'm pretty sure Red will be doing most of the decoy duty.

Red: Says you!

-The important thing will be to make sure the three don't all clump together to make sure MoD can't scoop all/most of them up at once. They should all be approaching from different angles at all times. Keep aggressive and keep unpredictable. Use thwacking as need to beat the big flipper away.

Good Luck!

I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Analysis
Beaten these guys once or twice before (I forget which.), so let's see. There's three of them, but they're all pretty slow and weak. I'm about twice as fast and traction-y as they all are, can easily push them with my 3 torque, their three-powered drums and tail thingies will barely even scratch me (Particularly considering my armour is sloped all over, and they don't have the weight needed to knock me away by thwacking.), and in general, they don't have a great deal of things they can do to me.

Strategy
Right. So what I'll want to do is keep constantly moving throughout to prevent them from ganging up on me, be aggressive, and focus on whichever ones are closest to me at the time. Attack them by flipping and slamming them into the walls, and if I have the chance to, forcing one or more of them into the Drum and the Pulverisers to deal damage to their very thin 6 armour. As long as I keep up my attacks, I should be able to kill at least one of them.

In terms of my defences, my high rear wheels (As Zooks explains, works a lot like those of Firestorm.) mean I can simply drive off if they do get underneath me at any point, at which point I can then drive right back in and continue wailing on them. Keep constantly moving and focussing on different ones each time to prevent them from ganging together as much as I can, and don't stick around the hazards when I don't need to.

Good luck.
