Ahh. The previous pic had confused me because it looked as though it had crushing arms from all four angles. Now I see that it is not so.
Still, not sure it can get a good hold if at all on either of the spinners in its melee.
Oh fudge let me fix that
Uberforce 2.0 the accidental one will be replaced by Disector
The other Fissure will be replaced by Chompalot
Which heats would those be? It's not exactly obvious which ones were accidental.
Ok
Heat L
and Heat B
Ok final tactics and predictions as the tournie kick-starts Saturday/Sunday
All right, here come the rest of my predictions and tactics:
Heat I
Sideswipe vs Killertron vs Liar 2
...bye Killertron.
All Bar One vs frenZy vs Axeon 4.0
frenZy is much too outclassed here.
Heat winner: As good as All Bar One is, I think Liar 2 or Axeon 4.0 can put up with it.
Heat J
7roubloon vs No Consequences vs Skull
I question the realism of Skull here; with those compact dimensions there's no way you're going to get all those MagMotors in there. It probably is in weight but the dimensions need to be bigger. Anyway I'll start off by avoiding NC and attacking the sides of Skull. 3.2mm Hardox is decent armour but it shouldn't last too long against my discs. :)
Splinter vs Pussycat vs S3
...lol. Pussycat's beaten Splinter, but S3 seems to be asking for a grapple'n'pit by Splinter, and S3 could damage Pussycat's tires. I have absolutely no idea who's going to lose here.
Heat winner: No Consequences?
Heat K
Wheely Big Cheese vs Obsidian vs Exertion II
One of the realies to chuck it.
Apples & Pears vs Darkwing 3 vs Iron Awe 5
Uhm...Darkwing 3 to go?
Heat winner: Iron Awe 5, probably.
Heat L
Behemoth Evo IV vs Magnitude vs Symmetry
Symmetry to be pitted by Behemoth.
Chompalot vs The Subjugator vs Firestorm V
The Subjugator or Chompalot to go. Most likely Chompalot. :P
Heat winner: Firestorm V
Heat M
GoldDigger vs Murder Train vs The Alexandra Sisters: Retribution
Well now that we have Murdertrain's stats, I think I'll go after it. It'll get flipped over soon and then it's not much use. GoldDigger has to be spinning to attack so if I don't get near it I should be fine. Get Murdertrain down the pit if possible. :)
Annihilation vs Tough As Nails vs M.O.E
Annihilation to self-destruct ala Son of Whyachi. :P
Heat winner: I can't decide between TAN and M.O.E...
Heat N
The Matador vs GBOD vs Under Pressure
The Matador couldn't have asked for two better vapours to fight, IMO. GBOD's srimech looks iffy and Under Pressure isn't as effective inverted. Plus he's more powerful than either of them. I'll say GBOD to go out...I think.
Spawn Again vs Super Gore Septua vs Thiwon
Go after Spawn Again. I don't want to face them later on so I'll get rid of them now. Clamp hold of it, and pit it. Hopefully Mr. Thiwon will assist me in being a nuisance to the Spawn Again machine. :)
Heat winner: The Matador
Heat O
Ge5orce vs Equinox vs Surgeon General
Poo. :lame: Well I've defeated Ge5orce before with SG, but now there's Equinox to worry about...hmm. If there's a team-up on me :P, just stay away from any hazards and hit them. Otherwise, go to town on whoever's nearest.
Still Hurting vs System Shock 5.1 vs Diotoir
Diotoir to win...a one-way trip to the flame pit. Again, though, I raised a question about SS5.1 as it's overweight and too compact to fit all that stuff in. Who agrees? :P
Heat winner: Ge5orce.
Heat P
Back to Rock III vs PsycloniZer vs Voltronic
I sense a Marti/Andy team-up here, but I think Voltronic can take them both on tbh.
Nightmare vs Storm 2 vs Nemesis
...lmfao. Nemesis out.
----
And having just checked the first page, there's no pit. In that case, the ones whom I said would be pitted will be destroyed by hazards or OOTA'd if there's a flipper in there. :P With SGS, drag Spawn Again to hazards and hopefully have it killed. :P With the Alexandra Sisters, try and flip it into GoldDigger while the Battlebot's spinning, or push it to hazards. :P
----
Otherweights
Heat A
Stiff Breeze vs Redemption vs Small System Shock
Not sure if two go through, or one. Redemption looks the strongest though.
Anti-Virus 3.0 vs Hit 'em Hard vs Sergeant Slaughter
Urgh. :lame: Ram them everywhere, I guess. :P
Hazard vs T-Minus vs Maxus
T-Minus I guess, with Hazard as a close 2nd.
Puzzel vs Shovelhead vs UberForce 2.0
Puzzel, UberForce close behind.
Heat B
Starfighter(1#) vs Skink vs Micro Gore Evo
With no pit, what can I do here? :roll: Urgh. Drag them to hazards and hope they die.
No Redemption vs Lightning LW vs Minilith
Overweight bot alert! In the form of Lightning LW! :P It's going down. Minilith looks to be strongest.
259 vs Terminus vs Sub-Zero
I'm not sure what Sub-Zero is...but I will try to grapple it and feed it to 259, hopefully killing the pair of them.
Diesector vs Inflammatory Slammer 2 vs Tax Cutter's Return
Not IS2 again! :lame: I only beat it last time by a hair...however I'll try to beat it here by more than a hair and rip it up quite a bit. Hopefully I'll tear the lifter off. Diesector's another worry, he's pretty fast...but if I can get those tires, I'll be okay. :)
Heat C
Flow vs Storm Vortex vs Scoopy Doo
No idea.
Fang vs Fuzzel vs Wedgehog
Fuzzel I guess.
The Unnamed Feeling vs Gamma-Rex vs Striker
THE UNNAMED FEELING, WARGH :crazy:
Tetris vs Drive vs Omega-Rex
Tetris is a SHW? I thought it was a MW. :? Oh well, Drive to pwn everybody I guess.
Heat D
Redemption vs NCC 1701 vs OverDrive
...WHY is Redemption in here twice? :P
Fuzzel vs Typhoon Thunder vs Gamma Raptor
Same with Fuzzel. :P
Nuzzel vs Heroin vs Hyper-Ventilate
Heroin ftw!
Vladiator vs Demon Duck vs Ziggy
Ziggy! Ziggy pwned Vladiator last time and Demon Duck sure as hell isn't a threat. :P
----
Yeah, Lian, you'd better fix the extra Redemption and Fuzzel spots... :|
Ok
2nd Fuzzel replaced by Explosion
2nd Redemption replaced by Pug
2 bots go through each round :mrgreen:
I might have a pit. But it'll be unique :wink:
Remember we have a new arena. It's the Battlebots arena with and OOTA area which is guarded by house robots.
In the middle we have 2 back to back flipper's. Powered by 3 co2 canisters each. There is a pit in the bottom right hand corner and every 30 seconds
the pit will go up and a random pit anywhere in the arena will descend.
:mrgreen:

Heat C: V For Vendetta
Heat D: N³
Heat E: Wedginator 9.0
