- How competitive is it?
- It's decent, but not top-level.
Strategy
- How does it move?
- It uses Stop And Go; if that fails, it uses a Random Movement based on MagicD2's
- How does it fire?
- It fires Waves, recording all the relevant information when the wave is launched. When the wave passes the enemy, It calculates the angle that would have hit and then puts the information into a log of enemy movements. When its time to fire, it looks through the log and tries to find the entry closest to the current situation using a k-nearest neighbor algorithm. For more information, see the Dynamic Clustering and Dynamic Clustering Tutorial pages.
- How does it dodge bullets?
- Stop And Go along with Random Movement.
- Is this robot Melee-capable?

- The enemy movement log.
Additional Information
