Slippery Strana was a lightweight robot entered into the Lightweight Championship of Series 2 of Robot Wars. It won the battle despite attacking the other competitors very little. It returned for Series 3 but an accident behind the scenes caused the lightweight competition to be cancelled. The robot was given its name for two reasons. The "Slippery" came about because of the speeds which the prototype of the robot could achieve. The "Strana" was a combination of the words "strawberry" and "banana", chosen because the team wanted to give the robot a surreal name.
