Morphology

beatless = beat (semi-transparent) = beat + less

Requires interpreting 'beat' as 'defeat' and reading '-less' as 'without being beaten', which is less directly compositional for many learners.

Etymology

Beatless uses beat in the sense 'to defeat' and the ending -less meaning 'without'. So it means 'without being beaten', in other words 'undefeated'.
