This is Helios:
This wrecking machine, brought to you by the fine people at Team Cosmos, utilizes a surprizingly simple and effective weapon. A spinning drum with ridges that catch under the edge of an oponent and litterally pitch it up into the air.
I know this bot isn’t exactly new, but once I saw this video of Helios in action, I knew we had to give it the spotlight.
