* TheLoad: Is largely useless in challenges due to a lack of limbs, snail-tier mobility, and inability to speak human language, not at all helped by him constantly teleporting off to parts unknown during challenges.

It's for this reason that [[spoiler:he is left behind and captured by Four when everyone else tries to escape from the E.X.I.T.]]

* TerseTalker: Because of how long that each letter is in audio length in Morse code, his dialogue needs to be as short as possible to stay around as long as normal speech.
* TheUnintelligible: Double subverted - Balloony understands his speech in BFB 3, but Leafy misunderstands him in BFB 1.

Added DiffLines:

* GoodOldRobot: He has a more old-fashioned design when compared to the other mechanical minds. The fact that he speaks in Morse code as opposed to proper English also helps sell this trope.


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: He promptly teleports to the waterfall dimension [[spoiler: upon his elimination without saying anything to anyone, something he only gets away with due to Four not being present at the time. Once Four returns however Roboty is sent to the EXIT like everyone else.]]

Added DiffLines:

* StoneWall: Roboty is basically immobile, has no limbs to do anything with... and is still perfectly functional after a giant jawbreaker crushes him. He even self-repairs from his crushed state after getting his prize in BFB 3's cake at stake, though how much of that was actually him is unspecified. He is also fireproof, as Firey Jr was able to stand on him in BFB 16 without harming him.

* NerdyBully: She is as intelligent as arrogant and judgmental, and frequently gets into fights with Barf Bag, [[FantasticRacism just because she is]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a barf bag]]. She also is not so nice to Leafy and even scolds her for even the most pettiest of reasons.

Trope is YMMV.


* BaseBreakingCharacter: Fans were deeply split on Loser: one half thinks he's cute and adores him, while the other half thinks his ParodyStu, all-liked persona is annoying, along with his voice. [[spoiler: This base break was probably the reason why Loser's elimination in BFB 7 was able to break multiple voting records.[[note]]Loser was eliminated with 12,062 votes, the most for a contestant at the time and one of the first majority votes of the entire season.[[/note]]]]

* DemotedToExtra: After being a pseudo-contestant introduced at the tail-end of BFB, as well as having an active part in the finale, they show up only for a quick gag in TPOT to introduce Teardrop to the show as a contestant.


Added DiffLines:

* TrueCompanions: Apparently, they're very close friends with most of the cast, which Balloony notes during the final vote for the winner of BFB. While the contestants are rather confused by their presence and assertions that they've been a series mainstay, they do still try to keep Four from eliminating them unfairly, and some even apologize for trying to eliminate them during the following contest.

* CreatorsPet: He is the favorite character by the Huang twins. However, the viewers hated Loser and got him eliminated in "The Liar Ball You Don't Want" as soon as The Losers! when up. Then when Jacknjellify had him rejoin in the infamous "The Escape From Four", the viewers were still not pleased, with Loser being eliminated again in "Let's Raid the Warehouse". Despite the hate, he even got his own plush and a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDkv_XqSiFQ musical number]] dedicated to him.
