i've been living in bronze for a while now, and was looking to move on to a harder mode. but what is silver, what is gold?

this article talks about non-heavy.... well what about heavies? it recomends against them, but why? i've also read how some people keep their bots level 4 or 5 for silver. is that needed? or are they selling themselves short?

i have a bunch of level 7 heavy bots i'd like to dust off and play with, covered with level 8 weapons. i leveled them up before i had any idea that it made a difference. then went back to bronze to learn to play. do these heavies push me up into gold? and how would i know?
