Bluebot

Speed: 6
Traction: 5
Torque: 1
Armour: 5
Weapon: 13

Hoarfrost III

Speed: 8
Traction: 8
Torque: 3
Armour: 11 (+1 Wedge)
Weapon: 0




Try going straight into his wedge, and if we get under it, it should turn him over and give us a chance to attack the wheels. If we get consistently outwedged, go for an angled attack.
If he tries going around to my back or side, try to square up with him, but if we've been consistently outwedged or he's been consistently succeeding at getting around to our backside, try to drive away before turning around.
In the case we get turned upside down, try going up the wedge and into the wheels.



My design flaws are showing already. Definitely going to be a difficult fight.

Stats

Hoarfrost III - 8 speed // 8 traction // 3 torque // 0 weapon // 11 armour (+1 wedge)
vs.
Bluebot - 6 speed // 5 traction // 1 torque // 13 weapon // 5 armour



Analysis

1) My toothed wedge should be able to beat his flat wedge, and he doesn't have the drivetrain to angle in, especially with his length and wheel placement.

2) I have enough armour that I shouldn't take any significant damage.

3) If I get flipped, I still have the better wedge.



Strategy

a. Brick vs spinner. Rush him, wedge him, feed him to hazards repeatedly. Really, his weapon shouldn't even have the chance to come into play. If it is managing to score some hits, try to position myself so that he gets flung into the hazards after hits.

b. If I get flipped, keep attacking. When there's an opportunity to do so safely, use one of the arena flippers to right myself.

c. Stay aggressive as hell and in his face. Watch out for any tricky gyro maneuvers, sideways starts, reversing diagonally across my front (though he'll high-center himself if he tries) and angling in. Pound him to scrap.
