Introduction[]
The Vityaz is a medium robot with 1 heavy and 2 light hardpoints.
Strategy[]
A versatile and balanced robot, the Vityaz is an extreme Tier 1 tank-it can absorb the highest amount of hits in the Tier and also boasts an extremely impressive arsenal including the only heavy weapon in the Tier, but lacks in speed in compensation for its advantages.
Its average durability and groundspeed coupled with 1 heavy and 2 light hardpoints allows the Vityaz to serve in multiple roles. The elevated position of the heavy hardpoint on its right shoulder allows the Vityaz to effectively corner-shoot while the left side of its hull remains in cover.
The Vityaz is a great brawler. Its high HP and firepower allows it to deal high damage to its opponents and absorb anything they fire back. It is one of the best Tier 1 bots for holding a center beacon. The Vityaz can prolong its already-high survivability even more by finding cover and covershooting/cornershooting, which significantly reduces the damage it takes from enemies firing head-on to it. However, be wary of splash weapons when employing this strategy.
The Vityaz is also capable of providing mid-range support to allies-its high health allows it to survive most firefights with most other Tier 1 robots, while its massive firepower allows it to shred the taget it wishes to engage with. However, be viligant of hit-and-run robots, ambushers and flankers, as they will be able to severely damage you if you aren't prepared for an engagement with them, although death in one salvo is very unlikely due to the robot's massive healthpool.
For sniping purposes, the Vityaz is still useable, albeit not very well. While its good firepower complements the playstyle perfectly, engaging in the role will waste the Vityaz's impressive health. In addition, the Vityaz's mediocre footspeed means that it will be difficult to retreat to cover if enemy brawlers manage to flank you and start attacking. There are robots with stronger firepower but less health like the Gl. Patton that serve the role much better than the Vityaz.
Counterplay: The Vityaz is very hard to take down, as one of the best Tier 1 robots in the game, but there are ways of destroying it. Employing its own tactics of cornershooting and covershooting while it is approaching can severely damage it as it is so slow, which also serves to the enemy's advantage as it may take some time for it to retreat or to seek cover, allowing the enemy to get more hits in. Hit-and-run robots can also deal high damage to the Vityaz if it isn't prepared, which is a good tactic. However, be careful not to get caught in the open while engaging with the Vityaz, as it will probably win in the brawl if that happens to be the case.
Threat Measure: The Vityaz is considered a very high threat as a Tier 1 robot, capable of winning engagements with most other robots in the Tier. A well-equipped commander can bring the Vityaz into Tier 2 leagues as well, as its high durability and firepower can carry it well into the middle of the Tier if commanded correctly.
Possible Setups[]
These are some recommended setups for the Vityaz:
Note: When "Opt." is next to a slot type, it refers to one of the multiple options that can be used in combination with the other weapon(s) slot type(s).
Each slot type is filled with only one particular weapon. For example, if a robot has 3 lights all three of those slots are filled with Pinatas, as mixing weapons of the different ammunition types is not recommended.
Close Range (350m or less)[]
Mid-Range (500-600m)[]
Long Range (800-1,000m)[]
Overview[]
The ability to mount a Thunder and two other close-range weapons like Aphids, Pinatas, or Magnums makes the Vityaz a potent close-ranged fighter.
At medium range the Trident combined with Pins are good for kinetic splash damage. A Vityaz armed with a Kang Dae, Nashorn, Flux or Trebuchet paired with Gekkos are good for long-ranged sniping.
Viyatz is unable to equip modules
Not Recommended[]
- The use of more valuable equipment because there are better platforms for mounting premium equipment.

Trivia[]
- The Vityaz is possibly the most iconic and popular robot in the game, as it is the robot used in the War Robots logo.
- The name Vityaz means "Knight" in Russian.
- Since update 0.9.0, the Vityaz has been upgraded in both speed and armor points, making it a very potent knife fighter or essentially an altered version of the Boa.
- There are two visible "52" markings on Vityaz's "bottom" and left shoulder. Also, it has the marking of Russia's airborne forces emblem near the "head", thus making it possible that design is loosely based on Kamov KA-52 airborne helicopter.
- Every robot in the RUS faction so far is based off of a type of aircraft.
- In a previous logo of War Robots, the Vityaz was seen with two Punishers and a Nashorn.The Vityaz is comparable to the Golem, as it has similar firepower and speed.
- But it is quite different from golem, as golem has 1x heavy, 1x medium and ix light and 84k hp, making vityaz slightly more inconvenient
- Despite its small size compared to giant robots like Natasha and Galahad, this robot is rather for beacon capping with its speeds clocking up to 42mph
