This is One of the situations I have been monitoring with the shows, at the last event on the Saturday there were 14 heavy weight robots and only 3 were not flippers.

The saint was ejected from the arena in one fight by the awesome Kronic, and It was just over the half way mark in the Robots Live arena, this means it was ejected over more than Half the distance of the arena suddenly in that show there is no safe place to fight.

I am normally against rule changes as I think the openness of the rule-set keeps innovation unimpeded.

so I believe it is down to the arena owners to keep changing (if they want to to) the environment the robots fight in, so it's as neutral as possible.

Again Jonno has done this and continues to investigate new innovations too,

I think in the end if the arenas don't change it will be a case of 14 heavy weight robots and all of them flippers
