It has a 70lb drum that spins at 12,000rpm. If you're particularly good at driving flippers, try and bait Hypershock near an instant-win condition and throw it out of the arena, into the pit, or whatever else that win condition may be.' Minotaur's the deadliest drum spinner in the world. As for the wedge, dodge, weave, and pray that whatever you're using is enough to tear it off.

As for weapon weaknesses, Hypershock's top plates can be taken off by vertical spinners or well placed hammer strikes. With any luck, your charge will land a side-on attack with your leading wedge on Hypershock's front wheel and Hypershock will flip itself because it was going too fast. If you can, try and bait a charge with one of your own. Just like the real thing, Hypershock can also flip itself over if one of its charges is disrupted by a wedge to the side. If you know how to juke, you can use this against Hypershock by baiting them to charge into a hazard or out of the arena if you happen to be fighting on a sumo ring.

Hypershock is one of the fastest Hexbugs on record. (Disclaimer: Use this tactic with caution as you might just throw yourself out of the arena instead if the walls are short enough.) Hypershock is also invertible, so you might be able to self right using your spinner on the wall or even the wall alone if it is tall enough. This spinner can be used to flip your opponents when combined with a box rush. Along with the fastest drive, Hypershock also boasts the most powerful vertical spinner of the stock Hexbugs. You can use this to your advantage by running literal circles around your opponent. Hypershock is one of, if not the, fastest Hexbug in the entire Hexbug Battlebots line, so you WILL need to practice if you intend to main Hypershock or a future Hypershock kitbash. Disclaimer: Using beefy AAA batteries or a LiPo upgrade is actually discouraged for Hypershock because several kitbashers have found out the hard way that this actually completely kills the Hexbug control board over time due to handling too much power at once.No kitbashes have been made with this yet, but the top kitbashers will figure something out eventually. The Hexbug Hypershock is an official product by Hexbug, released alongside Rusty.
