What's special about it?

It's my first attempt for a competitive bot.

Great, I want to try it. Where can I download it?

It's not released publicly yet.

How competitive is it?

It's not in roborumble yet, but one of my test versions, v.1.0.3 did okay. In 1v1, it got 48% on Mosquito, 29% on Rapture, and 66% on LittleBlackBook (quite surprising actually). I guess thats okay because it's a MicroBot, and barely(300 bytes). I think if I take out win/death colors, it might be a nanobot.

How does it fire?

It uses basic Linear targeting

How does it dodge bullets?

the stop and go/random movement mixup is good against LT, CT, PM, and GFT. It's weakness is actually Head on targeting.

How does the melee strategy differ from One-on-one strategy?

It does not have a melee strategy.

Where did you get the name?

I wanted to make a really boss bot.

Can I use your code?

Not released yet

What's next for your robot?

a better movement algorithm, maybe a GF gun.

Does it have any White Whales?

Bots with random targeting or head on targeting give me some trouble.

What other robot(s) is it based on?

none
