Hey look, a wedge fight. This one is probably going to be pretty janky and awkward because we’re both very resistant to each other. Do wedge things, be aggressive and do my best to push him around and show off to the judges that I’m controlling the match.
I’ve got a slight wedge advantage, those teeth on his wide plow are “teeth” but they won’t handle floor unevenness as well as my forks. Unfortunately most of his front’s a big lifting plow which can just rotate if I lift it. Get under his chassis and lift that if I can, and try to engage with him in high-speed charges that might scoop him up enough to get his central axle onto my forks and allow me to lift that up. Try to take him to the hazards but assume he’ll get off pretty quickly with his lifter and be ready to adjust.
If I’m wedged, Omicron is a really wide bot and Compound Fracture’s a really narrow one, plus Omicron’s wedge is a shallow ramp. He has anti-monstertrucking stoppers, but they don’t look tall enough to hit my chassis and everything else on CF is floppy / sloped / slippery plastic. I think most of the time I’ll just skip off. This is why I went with the double-sided outriggers, which can fold under me and slide over a stopper if they catch one. Ramping off leaves my back to him, but also leaves his back to me so he has to either turn around or rotate his lifter 180 degrees and reverse driving. If I get caught and lifted, flail the weapon around and hopefully my absurd ground clearance will let me climb off him. Being inverted has literally zero effect on either robot here.
