Minotaur is mostly being on the Offensive side. I have never seen Minotaur playing as the defensive role on battle, Minotaur is like your typical Attacker. But i believe Beta can defeat minotaur. It has superior durability and its hammer smashes down when it luckily hits, when its hammer is broken it can be used as a wedge instead. And beta has a decent speed which he can chase minotaur around the arena without worrying his bot being damaged due to superior durability

It's not actually about gentleman/ spotsmanship behaviour. If the other bot isn't moving and minotaur hits it, there's a chance it can move back again. As long as the match is ON, there is a risk of minotaur losing. Or getting more damage. That's not good for them over the competition. Only do as much as necessary. No need to take unnecessary risks.

Minotaur the forbidden roomba

Whenever Minotaur fights an opponent with a "flipper" weapon it's always a one-sided fight, since Minotaur's self-righting ability and upside-down mobility makes it immune to getting flipped over. The only chance that Minotaur loses in a fight like that is when it gets thrown out of the arena and gets stuck on the screws.

@RodrigoM3llo

It still has to attend weight constraints, so usually it's less armored in its bottom, compared to the top plate. The team even said that when competing against hammers, they use a thick titanium plate in the top, however, the bot is somewhat unprotected in the bottom, that's why the ability to flip minotaur using its drum's momentum is crucial, and it's driver, Daniel Freitas, has shown how he's capable of driving this bot with only one wheel, using its momentum. That's insane.
