which Robots can you find in the higher tier leagues? Asking cause it looked way expensive throwing away bots in exchange for them compobots...Will a Rhino last til champs league or die even before that? something like that...

Rhino's start to thin out after Gold, Still see them in Diamond but not very often.
This is on android though if you play something else then might be different.
facebook and steam both have small player pools so different animals.
There's a thread on here that looks at champ hangers.
The most common bot is Spectre, the dash bots are also very popular., quiz, pursuer, lance.
Variety gets less the higher you go.

Rhino is an "iffy" one. If you're in a match with "Orkans, Orkans everywhere!" you won't last long, but you'll do quite well against Scourges, Shocktrains, Dragoons, Zeuses. So if you have good situational awareness to use the Rhino at the right time, it can be deadly even at high leagues.
I watched a clanmate get a 7-kill streak with a Rhino a few weeks ago. Expert/Master match, and IIRC only at levels 10/11.

I wouldn't worry about it in the least, because unless you're gonna shell out a LOT, and i mean a lot, it will be years before you can get to champ league. And even if you did, that gear will be obsolete by the time you did make it. Lotta vets did it by grinding but that model is out the window now.
Instead, run your gear at low levels, and if you like it, take a few months to upgrade it to high gold league and try and have fun. Just sayin'.

With sufficient amounts of skill and luck, any bot can live in Champions League. Even a destrier (though that is a long shot 0.00000001%).
With that being said, most Rhinos start becoming extinct in Expert League.

With that being said, most Rhinos start becoming extinct in Expert League. Rhino can be a good beacon capper. It's pretty fast, has a shield against energy weapons and 2 medium 2 light hard points can be quite effective. Personally I never learned how to use Rhino up to its potential, but I've seen many who did. Even in Master/Champ.

If you're asking about which silver bots can last to champ, then first off, don't bother trying to reach champ. Second, Griffin is still the best silver bot available. Third, if you're F2P, try focusing on weapons over bots.
If you want a good fun versatile hangar and you're F2P, I'd probably aim for something like this:
RDB Griffin Gust Stalker Taran or Orkan Rogatka
and you can probably grind for some component gear:
Scourge or Orkan Kumiho Scourge Bulgasari
You're ultimate would probably be Orkan or Scourge Spectre.
These should all be attainable with time and effort for F2P.

Yeah for sure, there are exceptional players who can do amazing things with older bots, but they are few and far between. What I said is for the average player who wouldn't have taken the time to master the Rhino that well.
