Since the blade spins in a circle, he can drive into a robot forwards or backwards and get either of those effects.

I guess I would be worried about spinner bots too. They could hit you and spin you before you can get them up to your blade. Also, I assume that wedge is designed in such a way that you will fall back rightside up if you flip?
