As much as I wanted to see a robot like Typhoon (spinner, unseeded, no srimech) win RW, I have to say that Storm II was robbed a bit. It had Typhoon nearly over several times, stopped its spinner from working toward the end of the fight (damage, anyone?) and all it took in return was a bit of superficial damage (which was far less serious than Typhoons weapon being broken). If the fight had gone on any longer, Storm II wouldve won it. Plus, Typhoon had a comparatively easy run to the final (the 1st and 5th rounds were the toughest it got, and it had a bit of luck in winning those) whereas Storm II had to fight 2 nasty spinners plus the top 2 seeds (top 3 seeds if THz had made the arena).

Still, congrats to them for fighting 6 battles where it could easily have been turned over, and winning each time. And of course being the first unseeded winner and the first winner without a srimech since Panic Attack.

BTW, I know I sound angry but Im not - I just think that Storm II deserved to win it more than Typhoon did. Its a great result (a new champion thats actually destructive - quite an achievement for the 7th war) and was certainly great to watch. A great way to end one of the greatest TV shows ever.

It was better thought out than any other episode - no spoilers before the commercial breaks! Now thats how it should be done.
