Okay, for those of you not suffering from polling fatigue, I want to determine which War Robots bot is the Forum favorite! These will be quick snapshots- one a day then locked- so make sure you get your vote in!
The criteria can be anything you want- it's YOUR vote. Strongest bot, fastest bot, bot with the cheerier disposition, whatever. We'll keep going until there's only one bot standing!
For extra fun, let us know why you voted the way you did!
Good luck to all bots!

FIrst bot I fell in love with was the Gepard, after buying the $5 new player special. Quite possibly the reason I'm here, really.

The punisher patton was my favorite bot when I was a wee noob.

Hate shuffle bots, Pattons. Only because it seems that 80% of time they are the ones that Spawn and immediately fire their own weapons at their teammates. I truly say "play any way you want" and it' for fun. Think that's my one thing that makes me angrier than anything. I don't care about tanker, leavers, people meching out after one bot. None of it matters, but that's just plain annoying as their is no benefit for anyone, A tanker or leaver is at least doing something to get themselves ahead (selfish it is, but understand concept), the firing at teammates in first 5 seconds serves no purpose......
Voice It only because original poll opens it up with comment about "disposition". Just my thoughts, nothing more. I tend not to play them because they just seem too damn slow walking. Seem to shuffle along, can some play "effective", sure just not my thing though.

Do Patton weapons still fall off if the humidity gets too high?

Patton with Aphids. With support or cover....devastating. Both Patton and Geps can melt pretty quick though

Had to go with the Patton on this. I started during the Christmas event and happened to win two of them. The punisher version was pretty sweet and made the other one a baby nuke with 2 aphids I won and another 2 I bought. With those bad boys I didn't even realize that "seal clubbing" was even a thing.
much like dredd said about his geopards the Patton is probably the biggest reason I got into the game the way I did
The only experience I've had with the Gepard is using it for target practice.

'Patton, for sure. Can carry a greater payload and with the Sensitivity at Max, it can swivel as fast as the Gepard can run.
.. and Skull scheme

It's funny how decent a Patton is with 4 maxed magnums also fires 2 shots a second even at higher leagues if no one is attacking you its kinda funny when people see a Patton and magnums and they don't expect to die from it....
The best Patton build for me is the aphid though I do enjoy making the whole other team gun for me lol...
Usually when I do run a Patton I also run my Gep just so there is double the fun I change it up a lot whatever makes me not wanna close the app is what I do..
Only reason I like Patton more is the added fire power I don't really care about running and dodging in the Gep I save that for a Gareth or Stalker...
But I do have to say back in the day I did love my Gep it was the first bot I bought also I felt like a boss having 3 magnums and then upgrading to aphids lol it also was one of the reason's I loved playing daily!!!

I voted for the Patton. I don't have either bot but from a pure stats POV it seems better value. More firepower, more health, much cheaper.
If the Gepard had more HP or energy shield it could compete I guess. But 87k fully upgraded is too low. The Gepard's nearest competitor could be the Gareth. The gold cost and base HP are nearly the same. The speed not too different. The firepower arguably the same too. But the Gareth has a shield which triples hp. Where's the sense in buying a Gep?

No sense, it is more or less a known problem.
In principle (I mean, in most games), you choose between speed and a better protection. Here, the Gareth is superior on both sides... so yeah.
As for the pool, Patton is superior, but I have a personal preference for the Gepard. Would be nice if Pix would do something about it. Uncap the speed and buff the health, and that could become usable again. Right now it's laughably bad, frankly.

Aphid patton definitely. Ran one for a while, none of my other bots are as effective in dead city and powerplant

I have to take these polls as "if you had one slot, and these two bots to choose from, which would it be?"
I'd have to go Patton, because I always pick the one with more potential firepower.
I'm wondering what this could do with 4 Gekkos after the buff...

Nothing run and guns like a Gepard. Patton is made of glass and molasses.

Down goes the Gepard, and the Patton advances!
Slowly. But advances.
