B2 Brawler

The B2 Brawler later known as Scorpio is a huge cybernetic alien that came from the depths of planet Cerebella. Leading the Robotics Division on Galactic Gladiators, it was programmed to show no mercy, weighed six tons of carbonox alloy, and had never been defeated. It has a "lost cousin," known as Brainius, which looks like a smaller, two-legged version of the Brawler. He once again appears in Up Your Arsenal as the Annihilation Nation gladiator Scorpio but since the B2 Brawler's brain was eventually destroyed, it is unknown how the alien survived.

As Scorpio he is an alien/tank hybrid that was hired by Annihilation Nation as a gladiator. He was also the champion there until Ratchet beat him. Scorpio is armed with Dual Flamethrowers and a powerful Saw Blade Launcher attachment. After being dethroned as the champion in Ratchet's attempt to meet Courtney Gears, he fought the Lombax whilst his weapons were cycling.

How to beat
Start with the Blitz Gun. Chances of you running out of ammo are very high, so when you do run out, use the Gravity Bomb or Mini-Nuke against it. For defense, when the Brawler is standing up, just keep strafing, shooting it with the Blitz. If you take a hit or enough time elapses, the Brawler will drop down and start spinning its legs for one of the cheapest attacks of all time. If you are hit, you will go sailing to the other side of the arena, possibly off the edge of the arena, where you might be electrocuted, smacked again, electrocuted, then dead. So stay far away from this attack while nuking the brawler.

Dropping a few mini/megaturrets is also very effective here. Just drop a couple of those and watch out for the spinning leg attack. The job will be done in a moment.

Alternatively, he could be defeated with one shot of the RYNO II. This makes the skill point "2B or not 2B hit" as easy as "Cheapskate".

Another alternative would be to wait until you upgrade your wrench. Once you have, face him in the arena. When the battle starts, there is a thin gray strip that winds around the arena. If you stand directly in front of the Brawler on the strip, he should jump of his perch right on top off you. You should be wedged in between his legs well enough that he can't attack you, and you can just use your wrench to kill him. He will also not be able to drop down and use his spinning leg move. By using this method the B2 brawler will not be able to deal you any damage which will result in you receiving the skill point.

Another strategy is to throw out 4 Decoys from the Decoy Glove and then hit him with anything until he dies, however you will have to retreat to the other side of the arena if he uses a spinning leg attack. If this occurs, you should throw out a fresh Decoy every time a Decoy is destroyed, however this method allows you to beat the B2 Brawler and get the Skill Point early on in the game.
