Deadlift
Former construction workers with a penchant for paddle-ball and a leg day to skip, Deadlift is a bot who uses its hefty arms to grab, pull, and smash any bot it can catch with its chains.
JAB: Deadlift utilizes its fists to directly inflict concussions to any bot in its range. Holding the primary fire allows Deadlift to charge its attack into a CHARGED JAB, dealing increased damage and launching the target.
CHAIN: A long-ranged projectile that will allow the Deadlift to either pull enemies to it or it to enemies, allowing it to get more effective swings in melee range and launch enemies as Live Ammo.
Jabbing a bot pulled in by the Deadlift's Chain builds up a knockback combo up to a max of 3, enhancing the damage done by the Charged Jab's direct damage to the entity chained as well as to any bot hit by the projectile that entity becomes.
Enemies that are launched by a Deadlift's charged punch can be deflected as if they were projectiles.

Skins
Elites
Enemy Deadlifts can be spawned with one or more upgrades, with their skin being determined by the upgrade. These Elites will award extra fitness points when defeated, and will retain their upgrade when swapped into(usually stacking its effect with upgrades already possessed). In the case that an Elite is spawned with multiple of these upgrades, the skin closer to the top of the table will take priority.
Trivia
- The Indev name for Deadlift was Chainbot.
- The original moveset for Deadlift completely lacked a secondary attack, with the jab and charged punch being stronger and shooting a spread of weak projectiles.
