SawBlaze debuted exclusively as a circular saw-wielding robot in World Championship II, losing its qualifier match to Razorback by judges' decision after its relatively thin saw blade became bent and jammed.

However, it proved to spew green flame in more recent seasons. SawBlaze was also paired with a front-mounted flamethrower, though this scarcely worked in its earliest fights. In later seasons, the circular saw weaponry could be interchanged with an asymmetric, downward-spinning disc to deliver greater hits, called a hammer saw. It could also be equipped with various offensive and defensive attachments depending on its opponent. Like the Comedy Central era competitor S.O.B., SawBlaze was designed to slide underneath robots to trap them in place, then bring down an arm with a spinning disc mounted at the end to deal damage from overhead. Team captain Jamison Go was previously part of Team JACD and Overhaul in World Championship I, but disbanded to spearhead his own team in future seasons of BattleBots.
