Remember when 13 armour was enough to brick everything you could throw at it? The future is now old man, say hello to 16-17 power deathspinners.
They have an 11 armour body, and 13 armour on their wedge which won't be enough to handle my 16 weapon. Plus starting inverted makes it risky for them to try to clamp me, as they risk getting their saw shattered and clamp setup getting shredded.
Head out aggressively and head straight for SYW. If they try to get around to my side I can rotate into their side and shred their treads or sides, and if they go straight at me the lower part of my bot (should) ride up their front wedge, bringing my weapon right into their clamp assembly. Plus if they do somehow manage to clamp me, they'll have to saw through my disc, and the shock absorbing core could cause issues for the saw. With 11 weapon armour and a 5 power saw, it'll take quite a while for them to even start piercing the weapon, and by that time the pin timer will likely expire and they'll have to let me go and try again.
Afterwards spin up and put priority on facing them, followed by chasing them down. If I need to stop and rotate in place, I will do so to make sure I'm facing my opponent. Try my best to avoid the hazards and hopefully I can take this one and keep my hopes for top seed out of the group alive.
