猛兽侠 (Romanized as měng shòu xiá and translated as Wild Beast or Beast Man or Beast Warrior) is a robot from China which competed in the first season of King of Bots. In its televised combat debut, it reached the third round after winning its first round against Drought War Tiger and its second against Residual Wind.
Design
Wild Beast was a red, four-wheel drive box-shaped robot armed with a front-mounted spinning drum. The robot also featured a pair of hinged wedges at the front to lead opponents into the drum, which proved capable of inflicting significant damage throughout Wild Beast's appearance. Accompanying the main robot were a red, two-wheel drive minibot and a flying drone - the latter equipped with a flamethrower - although neither were always used in combat.
Robot History
Season 1
Wild Beast rips the outer teeth of Drought White Tiger's spinner off
Wild Beast first fought Drought War Tiger. The battle started tentatively, with Wild Beast sending its drone out to attack Drought War Tiger; however, the drone clipped the top of Drought War Tiger, throwing itself over onto the floor in the process. Undeterred, Wild Beast repeatedly drove into Drought War Tiger's spinner and sides, buffeting its opponent around and causing damage to its right-front tire and rear wedge. Immediately, the two competitors attacked head-on again; Wild Beast tore both outer teeth from Drought War Tiger's spinner and threw the robot itself upwards.
Wild Beast causes more damage to Drought White Tiger
Unseen on the televised edit, Wild Beast tore panels from Drought War Tiger's head and front, before driving head-on into the latter again. This resulted in it causing more damage to Drought War Tiger while getting underneath it, tearing more panels off, grinding away at its underside and breaking its left drive belt. Wild Beast steered over the flame jets as Drought War Tiger reversed away; the latter was promptly thrown onto its back by one of the floor flippers. With this, Wild Beast emerged victorious via knockout.

Wild Beast pins Residual Wind under the hammer
Through to the second round, Wild Beast next faced Residual Wind, albeit without either its drone or minibot. Immediately, it drove into Residual Wind’s spinner, knocking the latter back; it retreated to make another charge, before proceeding to buffet Residual Wind away with a few more rams. Sparks flew as Wild Beast’s drum made contact with Residual Wind’s bar spinner, before Wild Beast pushed its opponent across the arena and under one of the hammers. Pinning Residual Wind against the wall spikes, Wild Beast eventually backed out to spin its drum up again; it next clipped Residual Wind’s right-hand side, bending the side panel and tearing chunks out of its right tire.

Wild Beast throws Residual Wind over with a powerful slam
Both competitors maneuvered away from the hammer; another weapon-on-weapon collision ensued, enabling Wild Beast to deflect Residual Wind towards the spikes. Seconds later, it threw Residual Wind over with a powerful blow, before causing more damage to its armour and wheels as it drove underneath. Hesitating, Wild Beast slammed into Residual Wind’s weapon yet again, momentarily lifting the latter off the floor. It proceeded to get underneath and damage Residual Wind’s wheel even further, resulting in Residual Wind being left immobile on one side after Wild Beast pushed it. After several seconds, Wild Beast hit and pushed Residual Wind again, before leaving its opponent to be counted out. With this, Wild Beast emerged victorious via knockout, progressing to the third round.
