@@lewis7909 These weapons might have serious reliability issues after a few hits, and the flame thrower might have gone down. When you see it jet back up, it may have been in the moment of calm he was trying to get it back operating, perhaps spamming the button or re sparking it or something. I do agree, given a more durable ignition system, and a way to hold down the other bots a bit more reliably, enemy bots internals could just be roasted. Any insulated wires or batteries could just be destroyed and i think you would lose control even if the bot looked fine.

Ray has higher intelligence for sure, you can tell from his driving, however Tombstone is not very reliable. if i'd make Tombstone V2, i'd make it stronger so it can withstand some punishment itself, i'd also put brakes on the spinner, so it wouldn't destroy itself after each hit. not sure how the chain system is designed, but perhaps some kind of a springed bulley system, like on bicycles, to prevent the chain from coming off or breaking when it takes a hit. then tombstone would be unstoppable!
