HIM
Speed: 6
Traction: 4
Torque: 1
Armor: 6
Weapon: 13

ME
Speed: 7
Traction: 7
Torque: 3
Armor: 8 (+1 to front scoop)
Weapon: 5

LETS FIGHT

Push the weapon down when near him.

KEEP MY SCOOP FACING TOWARDS HIM. At all times, his weapon is strong, if I face it it is to be with my best armour.

Aim for ANYWHERE where his weapon is not. His weapon is thin (compared to the entire robot at least), so there's a lot of things I can attack. Front corners/side/rear, it's all fine. Attack, get under, invert! Lift my weapon as high as possible and drive forward while doing it, invert him!

Inverted he's just a less efficient design. Good still, but inferior. Keep him inverted.

Front corners/sides/rear remain my targets. Get under, lift (not full height), control. I shall not be picky, but it must be noted different targets will result in different effects. When attacking him from somewhere near his rear, I may well dig his weapon into the floor, which will have negative consequences for him, watch him bounce, chase, give no time to breathe. When lifting elsewhere, I will tilt him and get some control over him. MAYBE his wheels will stay in touch with the floor, but I will still have superior torque and acceleration, so really, lift him and get him to the nearest hazard, let him suffer as much as possible. SUFFER!

SUFFER!

Use my superior drive stats to dodge that weapon, but more importantly, KEEP MY SCOOP FACING TOWARDS HIM.

HAVE FUN

  • Start right side up. Funnily enough the shape of Latvian Gambit's plow gives Toe Chipper a HUGE advantage. His plow as a very prominent lip that protrudes from the top and bottom. My spinner should catch the SHIT out of that. My blade has the height and reach to hit the lip of his plow and really do some damage.
  • Further stuff about the lip: hitting it is obviously corner damage. His plow gets to 11? armor (I think. It gets +2 for 5 weapon power, and then another +1 armor bonus.) Still the main thing is that I will still damage it. In addition, I should flip him just from catching the lip. End over end. This will open up his vulnerable back to massive damage.
  • In addition, hitting the lip should warp it, since it is so thin. If it gets warped, and he gets flipped, this would make his plow pretty useless, even if he were to get at my sides.
  • That's basically it. I'm at a huge advantage when we go weapon to weapon. Otherwise, our speed is about the same (6-7) and I have two wheel drive so I should be able to force him into my blade a lot and do a lot of damage.
Good luck.
