Wow!

Very impressive little micro you have here. I've always wondered what it was that PEZ got right with Aristocles, because it is almost impossible to beat with conventional methods. In fact, if you examine its scores, it loses to all of the rambots because (IIRC) it never fires with 3 power bullets if the enemy is close. I'm fairly sure that it would rank significantly higher if that was fixed. Interestingly, your nano Sabreur beats Aristocles fairly well...

Thanks!

Aristocles does fire full power at close range, it loses to ram bots because it doesn't try to run away, it just sits there and takes ram damage. Also, I don't think fixing anti-ram would have a significant impact on its score. Look at RaikoMicro, it only fires power 2s and gets destroyed by ram bots, yet it is seven places ahead!

In PL ranking, which favors generalist bots more, they flip positions and Aristocles is ahead.

I think one reason why he's so good at hitting Random Movement is the number of bins. I ran many tests, and 25 seems to be the best against RM.
