I'm not really sure of mine. I forgot the name but it was yellow and had stripes on it. It was skinny too.

For sheer menacing looks, I'd have to go with Mechadon. However, I don't think it's won a single match (the darn thing has no practical weapon!).
Nightmare & Backlash are such well designed bots (one's just a smaller version of another), a giant spinning disk with two knubs on either end, and essenstially unflippable. Such a practical and efficient design takes my real choice of favourite.

guys, i'm here to clear up every one of your problems. yost911, the robot you're thinking of is a MiddleWeight (or MW for short), Pack Raptor, which is probably THE best multibot by a WIDE margin, with a record of 4-2 going into 5.0. Rouge Leader, if you don't know the robot's name go to robotcombat.com. and ralfarius, mechadon HAS won 2 matches, once in the ppv and once in 1.0 over Prompt Critical. and about the unflippability of nightmare and backlash, nightmare HAS been knocked out by being flipped by a non-flipper, Son of Whyachi in 3.0 (won HeavyWeight Championship that year). plus, backlash has lost in 2 consecutive seasons to flipper (Wedge of Doom in 3.0, and Hexy Jr. (father is Hexidecamator) in 4.0) before turning into a completely invertible robot. just thought i should clear up all the confusion!

Lightweights: Backlash is cool. I can't beleive it took so long for Jim Smentowski (The builder) to make Backlash invertible.
duh... My honerable mention is Ziggo.Middleweights: Complete Control, Pack Raptors, SABotage, and T-minus are all very appealing. I like Hazard too. If I didn't, he'd tear me to shreds...
Heavyweights: Warhead. That guy piqued my interest when I first saw him, and when he killed Nightmare Son-Of-Whyachi style
, I was won over. Biohazard ands Spitfire are also good.Superheavyweights: Mechadon, Toro, Diesector, and Final Destiny. When I saw Mechadon, well, just look at the smileys.

Geez, my favorite bot has got to be Ziggo, since he is the only one who actually destroys his opponents.

The coolest Bot is definitely Toro or T-minus. Noone else has a clue how to make them and they are only BOTS using CO2:cool:. The best Non-flipper is Backlash in the 1st season. Watching him tear every single opponet until his opponet was spread all over the arena, its because of backlash they put the safety windows on top and around because he sent pieces flyin every time he goes into fight. Dumbest BOT is Overkill, sure the blade looks good but he never really does any damage :(

Panzer:
quoteI think you forgot..."[Ziggo] is the only one who actually destroys his opponents."
Backlash, Warhead, Hazard, Nightmare, Son Of Whyachi, Phrizbee-Ultimate, Surgeon General, MOE, S.O.B., Dreadnought, Diesector, The Judge, No Apologies, T-Minus, Mechavore, Mauler 51-50, Death By Monkeys... I think you get the idea.
It looks like an ordinary penny... because it IS an ordinary penny!

Your right about that, but none of those guys actually tear their opponents apart until you can't tell what they looked like before.

panzer, you're not right at all. sure, ziggo can utterly destroy its opponents (see Ziggo vs. Scrap Daddy LW 55 in 2.0 for a great example, also see Ziggo vs. The Missing Link in 1.0 for the first true nationally televised (not the ppv) wheelectomy), but so can't a lot of robots jigglypuff mentioned. i know by experience watching them that backlash, warhead, nightmare, phrizbee-ultimate, surgeon general, MOE, the judge (sad his fight w/ iceberg in 4.0 was the in the prelims, would've loved to seen that), mechavore, and mauler 5150 can all dismember their opponents very effectively. sadly, the same can't be said for the other robots jigglypuff mentioned.

My favorite BattleBot is Ziggo but Atomic Wedgie is cool too. And I like Toro too. Don't tell Hazard, but I don't like him very much.

jigglypuff, i know i forgot a lot of matches. heck, every match with hazard is more like a human trying to go through a meat shredder. it's very gruesome at the end. however, he isn't spotless anymore. t-minus beat him in the semi's at 5.0 and has extinguished any thoughts of hazard being invincible.
