Berserk 2 was a silver dome-like robot built to resemble a skull. It entered Series 3 and 4. The robot featured a lifting rear arm and an axe as its weapons. Berserk 2 was the first robot to withstand punishment from Hypno-Disc's weapon, and only went down on a judges' decision. In Series 4 it was redesigned, but this newer robot was shoved and beaten by Tornado.

[edit] Series 3
In the first battle with Tut's Revenge, Berserk 2 had a slower start, but Tut's Revenge slammed into an arena wall. Berserk 2 reversed into it and flipped it over, qualifying for the next round. It then fought Ally Gator, and the two circled each other for a while, neither successful in flipping. Finally, Berserk 2 got in underneath and flipped it over. In the heat final, Hypno-Disc's weapon was only working at half-speed. Berserk 2's armour withstood the punishment from the disc, but was up-ended by an arena spike. Hypno-Disc bumped it back onto its wheels, and it tried unsuccessfully to flip Hypno-Disc. The axe had little effect, and Hypno-Disc pushed them into Killalot. The match went to the judges, who gave the match to Hypno-Disc.
[edit] Series 4
Returning with the number 24 seed to put some starch in its spine, Berserk 2 had a new design. It was quite sluggish in its first battle, but after Invertebrat broke down, it moved through. Against Tornado, however, it was too slow and was immobilised by sheer power. The Berserk robot was retired after this appearance.
