Automation vs Sneak Beast

Strategy

This match could possibly be one sided since it’s a “flipping” battle. But that won’t make me cower away to have a go in battle.

I’ll have to avoid the deadly flips that Automation will cause which will make Sneak Beast not sneaky at all. The design of him gives him a major disadvantage, which is a huge blow.

All I can do is try and fight valiantly, have a few pops with some hopeful flips to try and earn points.

As long as Automation doesn’t get any big shots with it’s flipper I should be ok but I’m not fully confident on wining the match.

Good Luck!

It has wedge effectiveness of 0, so just get underneath him and win :dirk:

In all seriousness, I have a pretty big advantage here in terms of wedges. Sneak Beast is very steep and fat; not a good combination. He has a disc at the back that probably can't even reach any of my chassis. His flipper is fairly strong at 5 weapon power, but again the poor shape of the wedge will make it difficult to flip, and even if he could, it wouldn't accomplish enough since I'm invertible and can even flip while inverted.

Just be aggressive and meet him head on. Slide underneath him and flip him immediately. When underneath him head on, this would probably pop him into his disc or his back. Either way he's gonna take a little bit of rolling or some luck to end up back on a side that will let him get onto his wheels. I've never trusted roller cages; they require a bit of momentum to work and are vulnaerable to being stacked against the wall. Which is exactly what I'm gonna attempt. Move him towards the wall and flip him into it to try and catch him at an angle where he can't get back onto his wheels. Otherwise, just shove him underneath the flipper and try to stack up as much damage as I can.

Flip him whenever I'm underneath him. The less he's on his wheels, the less he can do. Once he's flipped, push him to the walls and hazards.

Good luck.
