The stats were taken at the Garage, unaffected by any Rider's stats. But, the numerical values are estimates as they are not shown in-game!
Battle Chariot offers high Weight for stability and exceptional Offense for damaging enemies. Its Grip stat allows it to reduce knockback and to return to the fray quicker, supported by its high HP to last longer in combat.
Best Machines and Vehicles Tier List
You can complete the Trigger your Special 2 times in a single match
objective by going up the platform in the main area of the arena. There's a beam on the center that will fill your Special bar for you to trigger your Special once done with the first.

Prioritize machines that have high Attack, Weight, and Stability. Heavy machines withstand more impact and are less likely to be launched backward, while offensive machines let you overpower weaker opponents in direct collisions.
Get better results by striking when your opponent is off-angle, drifting, or recovering from a previous hit. Attacking during these openings makes it harder for them to counter and can tilt the impact in your favor. Use your machine’s natural attack stat and momentum to create solid hits instead of relying solely on charged moves.
Items scattered around the battlefield give temporary advantages that can turn a losing clash into a winning one. Attack Power Ups help you survive tough impacts or deal enough force to launch opponents instantly. Deny enemies the chance to collect them by grabbing items as soon as they appear.
List of All Power-Ups and Stats
Focus on using Spin Attacks at moments where they can cleanly connect, such as when an opponent is approaching in a straight line or recovering from a previous clash.
