Here's a couple of ideas that I've had for a while. They're pretty wild.

• Mass Bot.This robot mounts itself to the arena walls, making its effective weight that of the entire arena. This mass advantage makes it a formidable opponent.

• Death Star. This is a spherical robot. The geometric shape of a sphere provides vital protection against enemy weaponry. The Death Star would attack by shooting a 1.21 gigawatt laser powered by plutonium, or retractable spikes.

• Stress Free Robot. Who says a robot needs to have solid, heavy armor? A lot of squishy padding will keep this robots innards safe when it gets hit, tossed, rammed, and the like. With enough defense, this robot can go on the offensive by absorbing its prey, like an amoeba.
• The Kitten. By placing a live, adorable kitten on the robot, invincibility is gained. Matches are won by aggressive points.

• Cash Cow. Cover the robot with real dollar bills, and the watch enemies cower away, as destroying money is illegal by US law.
