      Competition Format
      The 24 robots were split into 8 heats of 3 where in each heat, they fought in one-on-one battles in a league system with the highest point scorers of each heat going through to the finals. Because 12 were needed for the finals, the robots that finished second in their respected heats fought in two 4-way losers melee battles and two would go through from each to join the other 8 heat winners. The 12 robots in the finals would then battle it out to determine the 2007 Heavyweight UK Champion.
