The question now was - what style of weapon could totally disable the opposition? It was fairly obvious - half-decent armour would sustain little more than scratches and dents from axes, hammers, disc grinders and drills. " From the very start, Razer was designed to be a machine of ultimate offensive capability. Indeed, later robots armed with vertical crushers, such as Ming 3, the Series 5 version of Suicidal Tendencies, R.O.C.S., Pinser, and Tiberius 2 and 3, would often have their weapons described by Jonathan Pearce as 'Razer-esque', further emphasising its influence. Like Hypno-Disc and Chaos 2, Razer's design was so popular and effective that it inspired a number of similar designs. It continued to excel in side competitions, winning The Second World Championship and two All-Stars tournaments.
Returning to defend its title in Series 6, Razer once again won its heat and reached the Grand Final, but placed second after losing a close-fought and famous judges' decision with its main rival, Tornado. Razer had far greater success post-2000, finally escaping the Heats in Series 5 and defeating Firestorm 3 and Bigger Brother to win the UK Championship trophy. Razer's early career was defined by its ability to excel in every area except the main competition despite winning back-to-back Best Design Awards and a number of side tournaments (including The First World Championship), it was only able to achieve three combat victories in as many UK Championships, breaking down in the second round of Series 2 and 3 and losing in the Heat Final of Series 4 to Pussycat. Razer was the second-longest appearing competitor in the show's history, competing in Series 2-6 of the original series, both series of Robot Wars Extreme and later Series 8, as well as appearing in foreign versions of the show.
One of the most famous robots in the history of robotic combat, two-time World Champion Razer remains the most successful robot in the show's history, with forty battle victories and seven robot combat championships to its name. Razer was a robot which competed in the British television game show Robot Wars.
overall it would have to be Razer.a beautiful and distinctive design and technically very impressive." - Robot Wars judge Mat Irvine on the robot that most impressed him
