* FragileSpeedster: Ribbot has the tendency to lose power in one side of its drive after a few hits, crippling it for the rest of the fight.
* SwissArmyWeapon: Ribbot is one of the few remaining "swiss army bots" that can change between vertical and horizontal spinners.
* TheWorfEffect: Went from gaining the #2 seed last year to losing 3 fights in a row against admittingly powerful opponents.

* HelpImStuck: During its fight against [=HyperShock=], [=SawBlaze=] got his saw stuck in the underside of his opponent, resulting in a double KO. While [=SawBlaze=] would ultimately win the fight, it took hours to separate the two bots, even forcing the crew to dismantle both of them.
* LoveableRogue: In spite of his sometimes cocky attitude and confidence, Jamison Go is beloved in the sport and has shown to be both respected and liked by many other builders, including Zach Lytle, Jake Ewert, and Lucy Du.
* StrongAndSkilled: [=SawBlaze=] is easily one of the most dangerous bots this season, using a devastating hammer-saw weapon while also being driven with impressive control by Jamison Go.

* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: It is the first bot in the history of the sport to knock out Black Dragon, a bot that is notorious for being MadeOfIron.

For reference, continuing to destroy an already-dead robot against the wishes of its team is considered ''[[KickTheDog incredibly]]'' bad form in combat robotics.
* TheUnfettered: Riptide is a good contender for the Giant Nut, being a very powerful vertical spinner with a solid drive and defense but it will be known more for ruthlessly rending Captain Shrederator into spare parts after both teams had acknowledged that Riptide had won the instant they flipped CS onto its back, to the point where the referee physically had to take the remote out of Ethan's hands to get him to stop.
* UnsportsmanlikeGloating: Ethan Kurtz is frequently guilty of this. On top of frequently continuing to attack robots[[note]]Or their loose parts and Minibots[[/note]] after they're already [=KOed=] -- despite this being greatly frowned upon in combat robotics, especially when said teams still have fights left -- he also tried to put his hand over Martin Mason's mouth in their post-fight interview against [=MaDCatTer=].

* AttackAttackAttack: Fought this way against Free Shipping as not only does Free Shipping have a reputation of never giving up but Jake Ewert also wanted to prove how aggressive he could be in driving Hydra. It was calculated that Free Shipping spent over a minute in the air during their fight.
* HeelFaceTurn: Compared to being the designated heel of the previous season, Jake Ewert has spent much of his screentime paying compliments and showing fair sportsmanship during this season.
* GeniusBruiser: Hydra is characterized as this, as not only is it one of the strongest bots in the competition but is also driven by Jake Ewert, who can constantly plan ahead and improvise with strategies.
* ScissorsCutsRock: In a sport where a long-running meta is open knowledge to both competitors and viewers, Hydra is the only bot that can convincingly beat any vertical spinner bot despite not having one itself.
* WorthyOpponent: Jake Ewert kept flipping both Free Shipping and Sawblaze even after they were immobile during their fights until the timer ran out. The reason? Because losing via a judges' decision harms their chances of entering the tournament less than losing via KO.

* BewareTheQuietOnes / BewareTheNiceOnes: Team Minotaur are good-natured and friendly in interviews before or after the match, with their driver Daniel Freitas being rather shy and not talking much. But when the bot battle begins? Freitas drives like a madman and looks ready to rip apart metal barehanded.
* CombatBreakdown: Minotaur's fight against Witch Doctor ended up like this, as both bots slowly lost the use of their weapons and drivetrains, ending in a pushing match between two crippled bots.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Even by the standards of the show, Minotaur is known for its extreme aggression while driving. The BullSeeingRed expression on the face of their driver adds to the effect.
* FireForgedFriends: Marco stated as much after their fight with Witch Doctor, that they respect the rival team deeply and never let any drama inside the box affect them outside of it. Andrea Gellately on her part, instantly agreed.
* LightningBruiser: As one of the only bots to go 4-0 and defeat other nut contenders such as Cobalt and Witch Doctor, Minotaur earned the #1 seed as a statement that it could very well be the strongest bot in the season.
* NoisyRobots: The undisputed king of this, Minotaur's drum spinner at full speed almost sounds like an air-raid siren and foreshadows a violent end to anyone going up against it.
* WorldsStrongestMan: After KO'ing Tantrum and Cobalt and having previously KO'd Endgame in the last championship, Minotaur is a sure contender for the strongest bot ever made.
