Darkstar-2J was a heavyweight robot built by Team Merkin Trolls which competed in Season 5.0 of Comedy Central BattleBots.
It was a black, low-profile robot armored with hinged polycarbonate skirts and a lifting arm for its primary weapon. It performed decently in its only season, reaching the televised rounds before being destroyed by Warhead.
Darkstar-2J was originally planning on entering Season 4.0 as the team was listed on the official BattleBots rankings page ahead of the Season 4.0 tournament.[1] It is unknown why it dropped out.
