Strategy

How does it move?
It generates points in a circle around it and evaluates them on moving towards the other robot's real position depending on distance (the closer to the enemy the more it goes by the predicted position), moving towards the other robot's predicted position (where it shoots), and the center (so it corners the enemy). It then moves towards the position it thinks is the best.
How does it fire?
It uses iterative Circular Targeting.
How does it dodge bullets?
By running into them :).
How does the melee strategy differ from One-on-one strategy?
A ram bot in melee?
What does it save between rounds and matches?
Nothing.

Additional Information

Can I use your code?

What's next for your robot?
Staying the best rambot.
Does it have any White Whales?
Arch-nemesis bots.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
Parts of it are similar to GrubbmThree.
