Skillz was a 15lb robot built by students of Christopher Columbus High School which fought at Rumble at the Rock in December 2007 - a event sanctioned by BattleBots - as well as BattleBots IQ 2006, and BotsIQ 2007, and 2008.
According to its BuildersDB page, Skillz sported no active weaponry and relied on a static wedge to push opponents around the arena.[1] It has a low-profile, cut-off pyramid shaped chassis with hinged skirts.
The team also fought at Rumble at the Rock with a similarly-designed robot called The Baked Muffin.
