Eat a dick unicycle boy!
To get us started here is a few types ripped straight from wikipedia but I think we can be more creative...



Andabata
A "blindfolded gladiator", or a "gladiator who fought blind".

Dimachaerus
The dimachaerus (Greek διμάχαιρος, "bearing two knives") used a sword in each hand.

Laquearius
The laquearius was a kind of retiarius who tried to catch his adversaries with a lasso
(YEEEEEEEHAAAAWWW)

Fyadius
The Fyadius would attempt to shitpost the opponent to death , would occasionally blip out of assistance and back in depending on the state of the lowtaxius

Sagittarius
The sagittarius was a mounted archer, armed with a reflex bow capable of propelling an arrow a great distance.

Scissor
The scissor (plural scissores) used a special short sword with two blades that looked like a pair of open scissors without a hinge.

Gurfonix
The Gurf would gently caress off gurf

Venator
The venator ("hunter") specialized in wild animal hunts instead of fighting them as the bestiarii did. As well as hunting they also performed tricks with animals such as putting an arm in a lion's mouth, riding a camel while leading lions on a leash, and making an elephant walk a tightrope.Technically they were not gladiators.

Uni-piedro
the one legged gladiator, well known to be a joke and widely considered ineffective.

helicocktorron
Records suggest this was the first recorded case of human powered flight. Their spiral shaped penis would be would up prior to the bout and then would enable the helikoktorron to flit around the Colosseum in short hops

Gymnophobist: These gladiators cultivated hideous but highly tanned maked bodies and repelled other gladiators by insisting that they would feel much less ashamed of their bodies if they fought in the nude.

Jockarius: The Jockarius' methods are shadowed by time but historians believe that they walked around the changing room coercing opponents into throwing fights by indiscriminate use of the towel whip.

"The Goon"

- Repels opposing gladiators and lowers their morale due to his non-existent hygiene and grooming standards

- Bombards enemies with encyclopedic knowledge of anime and video games, until the opponent is dazed and disoriented enough to make it safe to strike

- Severely overweight, making it nearly impossible to reach his vital organs, but also limiting his mobility

Funny? This is a historical myth, no such Lowtaxator ever existed

That child totally had it coming. Nobody should be able to be out at dusk except cars.
Steve - he has a fishing rod with a spike on the base.

Stilticus maximus - fights on stilts, usually with a spear.

Glad he ate her - a cannibal gladiator.

Dadicus

- Grills opponents with expert precision

- His jokes make enemies cringe and roll their eyes, lowering their Reflex defense

not to be confused with the Dadgayicus who gets all hosed up on opium and crashes his chariots into his opponents

Groverator. Lures his opponent into a shoddily-made domicile where various construction and occupational safety hazards await.

the Doobius Maximus : this gladiator's armor was extremely dull and thick, but it was fitted with large vents that allowed it to breathe and not just plum give out. The Doobius Maximus fought with a short double-sided club with a comically undersized handle.

Although initially incredibly popular, people eventually realized how lame it was, and any event featuring them would be condemned to damnatio memoriae

Dang, ok what if it's a transformer, and the gladiator is the humanoid state of transformation. Balls on the chest, or dangling from each elbow.

imo in the film Gladiator they killed off that one the german guy too early. The burly guy with the big rock on a stick. He and his rock should've had their day in the arena.

The Badiator - Extremely incompetent buffoon gladiator who still makes it to a ripe old age since gladiator fights were much less deadly than how they're represented in contemporary popular media.
