Unrelated to the middleweight BattleBots competitor, Red Scorpion.

Black Scorpion was a robot designed by Creative Anarchy which applied for BattleBots World Championship II.

It was a two-wheel drive robot armed with a long, scorpion's tail made up of ten segments joined together to whip opponents. This was mounted upon a long, box-shaped chassis with caster wheels at the rear. Black Scorpion featured scorpion motifs for decoration, as well as red LED lights to resemble eyes. The weapon was powered by a single E-Tek motor, storing energy within springs or a flywheel before releasing it one burst. The tail's segments being joined together with custom-built spring blocks - sixteen in total.

The team submitted their application on December 13, 2015, which was deemed too late by BattleBots production and Black Scorpion was therefore not chosen to compete.[1][2] It is currently unknown if the robot applied for any subsequent seasons.

The Creative Anarchy team previously competed in Comedy Central BattleBots with the middleweight Armadillo, which made the Round of 32 in Season 4.0.
