Thoughts? Tactics? Did you enjoy Round 2?

Thank you! :)

Great last Round 2 there Steve-o! :proud: I canna wait for the semis!

Predictionaries:

I think SpunOut will win, mainly because of the discs power. It should sent the little wedges flying all over the arena.

And off we go again! :)

Our final Heat is about to draw to a close, but before Hector and Tom scrap it out once more in the PTT€™s history, let€™s use our last time travel trip :proud: to take a look back at their previous meeting...the Grand Final of PTT2! :proud:

PUSSYCAT TRIBUTE TOURNAMENT 2
GRAND FINAL
SPUNOUT (Tom Roper)!!!!!!!!!!
(has beaten Disc-Turbed, Forthgill, Bigger Brother, Slam Job, The Matador(10) and Pure Evil)

Vs

THE BUSINESS ENDS (Hector Gilbert)!!!!!!!!!!
(has beaten C2, Son of Ripper 2, Hypno Disc(2), Wheely Big Cheese(14), Biohazard and Razer(11))

House Robots- Sgt. Bash, Mr. Psycho, Sir Killalot, Growler

Roboteers Stand By......
3...2...1...
ACTIVATE!!!!!!!!!!

Right away, The Business Ends and SpunOut charge towards each other!! But as the two approach the arena centre, TBE veers off to one side and reverses into SpunOuts rear!! The axe fires and the arm attached to the rear raises!!! But SpunOut is merely lifted off the ground and lands back on its 6 wheels!!! Now the pusher slams into TBEs rear, carefully avoiding the arm, and shunts the hammerbot into the arena wall!!! TBE tries to get away, but SpunOut starts to ram into it!!! As it backs off, TBE quickly darts away and SpunOut just about ends up crashing into the wall!!! After a very quick recovery, SpunOut charges disc-first towards TBE!!! But as it approaches, TBE slams into reverse and the two crash into each other in the arena centre!!! As the two collide, SpunOuts disc meets TBEs arm, but the lifter holds up with little more than a scratch, while the disc seems to have been temporarily stopped!!! The rear arm of TBE manages to just get under SpunOuts disc and, with one fire of the axe and a lot of reversing, successfully flips SpunOut over!!! Being invertible, SpunOut takes this with little bother!! But as it tries another shove, TBE drives under the rear of the machine and with some more reversing, fires the axe and sends the robot over again!!! Now facing TBE disc-first, SpunOut charges with all its might, slams into TBEs front ram and pushes it so hard that the section of the arena wall the two hit almost comes loose!!!! Now SpunOut is reverting to the Tornado tactic...ram it, ram it, RAM IT!!! But after taking a few nasty shoves, TBE successfully manages to turn around, allowing a charging SpunOut to meet the spinner head-on!!! The disc hits the ram and, although the spike is now rather bent, the disc has stopped again!!! TBE seizes its chance and manages to drive under SpunOuts currently static disc!!! The now legendary axe activates and SpunOut, who seems to be pinning TBE to the arena wall, is suffering blow after blow after blow!!!! Despite having stronger top and bottom amour, the hammer is making a fair few dents!!! Blow after blow rains down on SpunOut, who is still keeping TBE against the wall!! Refbot intervenes by approaching the two and, while carefully avoiding TBEs hammer, pries the robots apart!! The two separate and TBE zooms to the arena centre with SpunOut in hot pursuit...the disc and spike had become stuck together!!!! As SpunOut hits TBEs side and starts to shove it to the arena wall again, TBE quickly pulls forwards and darts away as SpunOut very nearly hits the wall again!!! Now quickly getting into reverse, TBE drives under SpunOuts exposed rear and nearly flips it over again!!! As the pusher tries to get some room and shunt TBE away, the hammerbot drives under SpunOuts rear and lifts it again!!! The pusher is almost turned over...and very nearly propped against the wall!!! With SpunOut pinned sideways against the barrier, TBE reverses into SpunOuts rear and manages to get underneath, while also hitting a wheel!!! The axe fires, the rear arm goes up, TBE pushes with all its might, the sideways SpunOut goes up...and the pusher is now beached on its side against the wall!!!!! The Business Ends has done it!!!!! Its plan worked!!!!! As the mighty hammerer backs off and watches the pusher try desperately to get off the wall, Refbot approaches and begins to count out the marvellous, destructive, but finally conquered SpunOut!!!!!
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!!!!
As Mr. P approaches the beached SpunOut, TBE backs into the arena centre and starts to bash the floor with utter joy!!!!! Hectors done it!!! Hes won the 2nd Pussycat Tribute Tournament!!!!! Mr. P meets the abandoned pusher and picks it up with his hideous claw!!! As Bash kindly releases the Pit for him, and while TBE continues to bash the floor into sawdust, Mr. P raises SpunOut as high as possible, turns to the Pit and trundles over!!! Once at the edge, Mr. P releases its grip and all watch as the great SpunOut tumbles into oblivion!!!!! One €œBANG!€ later and the smoke begins to rise from the Pit!!!!! We have a new PTT champion...and his name is THE BUSINESS ENDS!!!!!

CEASE!!!!!

WINNER OF THE PUSSYCAT TRIBUTE TOURNAMENT SERIES 2:
THE BUSINESS ENDS!!!!!!!!!!

FINAL RESULTS:
1st- THE BUSINESS ENDS (Hector Gilbert)
2nd- SPUNOUT (Tom Roper)
3rd- PURE EVIL (Daniel Stickler)

Of all the fights I€™ve written, I think this is one of my personal favourites. :)
Now, it€™s back to the future to see our last Heat Final (and to get rid of this machine - the CIA have been tracking me for a while, you know :proud:)
-------------------------------------------------
It€™s been a long while...a long, long, loooooooong while :proud:...but we€™re finally about to fill the last place in our Series Semi-Finals! Once again, Gilbert and Roper meet in another Clash of the Titans, but who will triumph this time - the 5-way newbie clusterbot or the ram-happy 2nd seed? Our Final Heat Final will provide us with an answer... :)

HEAT P
ROUND 3
HEAT FINAL
SPUNOUT 3.0 (2) Vs THE TEAM THAT WASN€™T THERE

House Robots- Matilda and Growler

Roboteers Stand By......
3...2...1...
ACTIVATE!!!!!!!!!!

SpunOut 3.0 gets off to the quicker start with its serious acceleration, but already, the Team That Wasn€™t There has begun to start separating!! With the disc revved up, the No.2 seed darts forwards and rams right into the middle of the line of Lightweights!! Although this attack has put a great slice into one of the members, this charge has also managed to smash the mini rammers free from each other!! Now all five are beginning to roam the arena!! Disc back up to speed, SpunOut takes a dart towards an advancing segment, but as it does, another member shoots across the ring and under the No.2 seed€™s side before it can swing round and retaliate!! As the powerful cluster piece merrily pushes Tom€™s machine across the arena, another Team member darts over and into the Pit Release Button!! However, as the siren blares and SpunOut is smacked into the arena wall, the blow knocks the No.2 seed off the €œsnagging€ ridge of the cluster piece€™s wedge!! Back in action, Tom quickly sends SpunOut dashing off the front wedge and back into the arena!! As two more segments come on the attack (one of which Tom crippled earlier on :proud:), the No.2 seed tries a new tactic - as the 2 Lightweights get closer, the PTT2 runner-up uses its six wheels to swing right round and strike both cluster pieces with the dreaded flywheel!! While one member is scarred, but safe, the already wounded segment looks worse for wear...due to the fact that only one side seems to be working!!! SpunOut revs up the disc again and dodges another joint assault, as Refbot starts to count out the half-immobile Lightweight!!!
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!!!!
1 down, 4 to go!!! Disc back up to speed, the No.2 seed just dodges a second twin onslaught and twirls round for another go at that unpleasant pair!! But just as Tom€™s machine prepares to attack the two advancing Lightweights, another Team member darts over and slip underneath the No.2 seed€™s side!!! When the fourth remaining segment trundles over as well, SpunOut tries to shoot free...which is tricky when the €œsnagging€ ridge is locked onto the outer cage protecting the wheels!!! Delighted with his little manoeuvre, the triumphant cluster piece makes its way over to the Pit, the other Team members clearing the way!! SpunOut€™s disc spins wildly - but there€™s nothing to attack!!! The wheels twirl desperately - but it can€™t release itself from the ridge!!! Tom tries to wriggle his machine loose - but it€™s too late!!! The little Lightweight has reached the Pit edge, abruptly halted and shaken the No.2 seed into the eternal darkness...

CEASE!!!!!

SpunOut 3.0 couldn€™t survive the big push! :proud: The No.2 seed falls victim to the quintuplets€™ ruthless teamwork and misses out on the title a second time!
THE TEAM THAT WASN€™T THERE GOES THROUGH TO THE SERIES SEMI-FINALS!!!
