Strategies

Using Driller Thriller
Edit
Due to Driller Thriller's mediocre weaponry and low speed and pushing power, your best bet is to ram opponents with the wedge and hope to use it to turn them over. However, you can still push them into the CPZ or arena hazards. The drill can also be used effectively in the right area, in order to punch through the opponents armour and hope to damage their engine.
Against Driller Thriller
Edit
Driller Thriller is very vulnerable to flippers, as (like most fictional competitor robots) it has no self-righting mechanism, so the easiest tactic would be to flip it over with a flipper or by ramming it into the arena wall. It is also easy to push into a hazard or CPZ, as it has low pushing power. It will always attack with the drill at the outset, so try to avoid it.
