Chainsaws were a form of rotating weapon predominantly seen in earlier series of Robot Wars. Matilda was the first robot to be equipped with this weapon when she debuted in Series 1 along with the other original House Robots, while the first competitors to use chainsaws were Napalm, Leighviathan, Inquisitor and Spin Doctor, all in Series 2. The last for years - and most successful - was US Season 2 Grand Finalist and Tag Team Terror co-champion Rocky-Bot-Boa, although it used its pushing power as its main means of offense throughout its appearances. In Series 9, Coyote surprised many by using a chainsaw as a tail weapon, although it was badly damaged after its first battle and not used again thereafter.

abstract	Chainsaws were a form of rotating weapon predominantly seen in earlier series of Robot Wars. Matilda was the first robot to be equipped with this weapon when she debuted in Series 1 along with the other original House Robots, while the first competitors to use chainsaws were Napalm, Leighviathan, Inquisitor and Spin Doctor, all in Series 2. The last for years - and most successful - was US Season 2 Grand Finalist and Tag Team Terror co-champion Rocky-Bot-Boa, although it used its pushing power as its main means of offense throughout its appearances. In Series 9, Coyote surprised many by using a chainsaw as a tail weapon, although it was badly damaged after its first battle and not used again thereafter. Chainsaws were a mainstay of early robot combat, starting with the US Robot Wars events that predated the TV series. Indeed, when Marc Thorpe made his invitations to competitors for the inaugural event in 1994, he provided a photo of a robot equipped with a chainsaw to give an example of what he thought the competitor robots should look like.
