POW wedge
Wedge or not, I should be able to get under this robot pretty handily. He might be faster, but he also has a bit less control and has to brake in order to thwack me. Try to keep semi frontal, tank the thwack hit, and put him on his back, this could make it harder for him to use his thwack and he'll have to go running for a walk to self right. If he tries to drive off, flip him immediately. If not, try to drive him towards a hazard. If I can get enough flips together, see if I can OOTA him. If for whatever reason he is under me, don't drive off, push back quickly with whatever wheels are on the ground. Avoid any possible angle ins, I should be able to prevent 90% of them. Continue with this strategy til I either OOTA him or the buzzer sounds. Thwack hits won't matter much since I'm all smooth on top and as long as I stay aggressive.
GL!

Re: Super-Modified vs Dystopian Avenger
Not feeling hot today but here's some words yay
Okay so W0lf picked the wide wedge so I imagine they're focusing on trying to catch and flip us instantly.
We'll stick to the usual manic aggro strats, keeping up pressure and fishing for hits wherever we can, but also vary up our timing some as well. Sometimes, stop a little shorter than usual on frontal assaults, see if we can land some strikes onto that fancy wedge itself and ding it up, or perhaps catch out a predicted flip. Or we can spin and whack the bot with our chassis. We're never gonna be getting under DA, but dinging up the wedge, especially if we can bait out a flip and land a good hit on it, we could potentially inhibit mobility, which would let us get around the sides easier and smack on those juicy-looking wheels and top panel...
tl;dr: same as usual but also see if we can fuck up the wedge a bit :)
