93.22 against CunobelinDC? Are you kidding me? I can't wait to watch some battles and see how you're doing this. =) Nice work! --Voidious 14:33, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

91.98 against Hydra is probably more amazing =) I never saw this -76 PBI before! » Nat | Talk » 15:07, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Aha! Very precise Bullet Shielding while trying to remain unmoving so they always fire exactly head-on! Even a tiny tiny random factor in aim will foil BulletCatcher, but still, many bots this will work on. GF-targeting bots often end up just by chance learning something slightly off-center so they often hit it, however the first few shots are still caught by BulletCatcher (See what happens when YP faces BulletCatcher! Neat!). Additionally, BulletCatcher doesn't hit exactly-head-on bullets from RougeDC and Shadow, because they are two of the very few bots that predict their own location on the next tick when calculating where they need to rotate their gun. I'm not sure what makes Komarious inaccurate and sometimes even completely miss the near-stationary bot, but it's intermittent inaccuracy saves it's life against BulletCatcher. Very interesting bot here! --Rednaxela 15:14, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

(2 edit conflicts) He he... I love his secret =) He just sits still and aim head-on at enemy with bullet power 0.1 to destroy enemy bullets... It won't work with a lot of robot since a little slippage though. Amazing bot! I wonder if I take a strategy like this to destroy some bots completely and switch back to normal when it didn't seem to be success? » Nat | Talk » 15:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Haha, but the fun part is it isn't -quite- still. It moves just slightly back and forth in order to get a slight angle on the bullet it appears :) --Rednaxela 15:23, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
