Concussion's primary feature is its single-toothed teardrop-shaped spinning drum, revolving at 6,000rpm. This is the second time Concussion has battled it out in the competition, and the team have improved their ‘concussive’ spinning drum, which they believe has the ability to send pieces of enemies out of the arena and cause internal damage.

Team Captain Tim is a die-hard Robot Wars fan, so much so he even has a tattoo on his leg in homage to the show.
