General Grip

## Overview

General Grip is a House Robot introduced in Volume 3.

It debuted in the Antweight Anarchy Volume 3 Heat B Final where it became the first House Robot in *Antweight Anarchy* history to be thrown out of the arena, courtesy of Apollo. Finally, it oversaw the fight to decide the Antweight Anarchy Volume 3 champion. It was a brutal match and General Grip didn't come out unscathed, but once the dust settled, Apollo was the champion and General Grip was still in his CPZ.

## Fight History

### Antweight Anarchy Volume 3

#### Heat B Final

**Mini B vs Apollo**

The fight started with both bots charging in and Mini B ramping over Apollo and taking advantage of the #15 seed's confusion by flipping it, forcing Apollo to self right. The two bots then jostled for position until Apollo threw Mini B across the arena. Apollo then started to toy with Mini B, throwing it around until General Grip got a little trigger happy and closed its jaws around Apollo. Needless to say, Apollo was not happy about this and flipped General Grip at the first chance it got and pushed its corpse into the corner where it could not disrupt the fight again. Mini B then flipped Apollo out of the way and righted General Grip, prompting Apollo to angrily shove Mini B across the arena while General Grip fled to the drop zone CPZ. Apollo flipped Mini B out of the way and gave chase to the house robot, cornering it and flipping General Grip again. Mini B started running low on power next to the floor flipper and Apollo tried to take advantage, but was flipped by Mini B. Apollo then self righted and pulled the same trick it did against Mini B in the Champion Clash, throwing Mini B onto is back by self righting. Mini B kept fighting, but you could tell that it was fading because it was barely managing to flip Apollo and part of the drive was cutting in and out. Apollo easily used this to its advantage and threw Mini B around the arena, eventually dropping the pit in an effort to end the fight quicker. Mini B flipped Apollo again, forcing it to self right, but Apollo already had this fight in the bag and countered by pushing Mini B across the arena and into the pit, eliminating Mini B and qualifying for the Volume 3 Grand Final. However, Apollo still wasn't done as it started to push General Grip's corpse near the short wall in preparation for something. General Grip knew what was about to happen and started grabbing Apollo in desperation, but Apollo would not be denied as it fired the flipper and threw General Grip out of the arena in a show of dominance, cementing its place in the Grand Final.

**Grand Final**

**Entropy vs Apollo**

The fight started with Entropy spinning up and clipping the corner of the leading edge of Apollo's flipper. Apollo used this momentary lapse in driving to flip Entropy onto its back, causing its spinner to carry it onto the closed pit cover as it chaotically self righted. Apollo then got stuck on the floor flipper, but freed itself and temporarily hid behind the feared hazard to formulate a strategy. Apollo then came out of the CPZ swinging, getting around to the side of Entropy and landing a flip attempt before getting under Entropy's wedge and flipping it onto its back, forcing it to self right. Apollo then landed several flip attempts before Entropy turned the tide and tore the lip off of Apollo's flipping arm. Apollo then retreated and tried to drop the pit, giving Entropy time to charge in from behind and rip out one of the back corners of Apollo and causing a split along the layer lines of the printed chassis. Entropy then charged as Apollo was retreating only for Apollo to suddenly stop and pull a 180, causing Entropy to ride up Apollo's flipper which Apollo then fired, sending Entropy onto its back. Entropy self righted, but was now in General Grip's domain. Apollo dropped the pit as General Grip foolishly closed its claws directly on Entropy's disc, causing Entropy to break free and reengage with Apollo. Both bots then danced around each other inching ever closer to the pit until Apollo successfully caused Entropy to destabilize and fall into the pit. Apollo then powered down as the Antweight Anarchy Volume 3 champion.
