What's special about it?
This bot is the big brother of Pugio. It uses my invention called Adaptive Oscillator Movement. I try my new developments of it in this bot.
Great, I want to try it. Where can I download it?
See infobox.
How competitive is it?
It's in a beta state with a sucky gun and unoptimized movement, but it's top 20 in microrumble and <150 in general.

Strategy

How does it move?
Statistical Adaptive Oscillator Movement.
How does it fire?
Nano SymbolicPatternMatching matching velocity.
How does it dodge bullets?
Moves according to the recent frequency of the oscillator movement.
How does the melee strategy differ from One-on-one strategy?
The melee strategy is not to participate in melee battles. ;)
What does it save between rounds and matches?
Between rounds it saves velocity for the Pattern Matching (and everything else, too, because static variables cost less codesize :P), between matches nothing.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?
Gladius is the bigger brother of Pugio. Pugio is the Roman dagger, Gladius is the Roman sword. Quite straightforward, isn't it?
Can I use your code?
RWLPCL
What's next for your robot?
GuessFactor targeting, squeezing, optimizing, improving movement.
Does it have any White Whales?
Not really, but important test bots are Toorkild, Acero, Sledgehammer, Hedgehog series (+ KostyaTszyu and Muffin, I don't know why)
What other robot(s) is it based on?
WeekendObsession's gun with some modifications.
