Sorry about the delay for Annoying Box Rush. Its been tricky to sort out things. Youd think a wedge lifter would be exceptionally easy, but some people are just wired to do pushy-bots, and some people are safer in spinner country.
Im very grateful to not be in any of the first few heats. Being in all four first heats last time royally screwed me up.
Meh. While Im waiting for my sister to get out the bloody shower I might as well do all my tactics and predictions.
I also just noticed I forgot to give you XIs stats. Sorry about that, theyll be in shortly.
HEAT A
The Disc 4 (1) vs Biohazard vs Infusion vs Panic 3 GTI 2
Its occured to me Ive only given tactics for Infusion seeing hes going right for me. Assuming Im able to take it out, and assuming Bio and Panic are both mobile at the time, Ill then go after Bio and flip it with the disc. It cant self right thanks to the rear skirt.
Psyclone (17) vs Pulveriser vs Squish vs Voltronic - I think Psyclone and either Squish or Voltronic to go through here.
Heat winner: I think Psyclone.
HEAT B
Manic Monsoon (3) vs Cholera vs Powerpoint Reaches Pressurepoint vs Slammer IV - Manic Monsoon for sure, and possibly Slammer, or maybe Powerpoint
Whirligig 4.0 (19) vs Battle Rat vs Growling Storm 2.5 vs National Speed Limit Applies - Hmm. Not sure. I think Whirly, but as for thje others I think itll be close.
Heat winner: Manic Monsoon.
HEAT C
Tempest Evil-er-ution (5) vs Bender vs Hacked Off Ha-ka vs M.O.E - Ill use the 6 CM teeth and attack Bender and Moe. Fancy teaming up Matty?
Warhead (21) vs 2Blue vs Iron Awe 3 vs Not Another Pushover 2 - I think both the real robots to go through.
Heat winner: Im really not sure as this looks to be a very open heat... If I had to guess Id go for Hakked off Ha-Ka though.
HEAT D
Windiest Killer Just Got Windier (7) vs Cuffy vs Orka Mk3 vs Pink Panther - Windy and... Dunno.
Disco 5 (23) vs Bulldog Breed vs Killer B vs Starstorm 2 - Eh, heck with it. Ill go after whoevers nearest, throw some things around and see what happens
Heat winner: Either of the seeds.

Chaos 2 (30) vs Megabyte vs Stratosfear vs Vlad The Impaler 2 - Chaos 2 and Stratosfear
Heat winner: If Angel goes down in rounds 1 or 2, I think Chaos 2. If not then Angel of the Abyss.
HEAT K
Annoying Box Rush (12) vs Firestorm V vs Mr Nasty vs Rip Cage - I think Im controlling Firestorm here. Not sure what ABRs like thse days, so leave it alone, and stack Mr. Nasty against the wall. If Im not then disregard this message

Ah, basically, a medium-sized 8-wheeled robot with a really low electric lifter that looks a bit like a Minion ripoff (without the chainsaw). Dunno how itll fare.
|Heat P, Heat winner: Probably WX 6|
Haha, WX 6.0 is a miracle of invention. Andy managed to make a robot thats basically 10 friggin robots, depending on the match. After some analysis, it looks like VGer could beat all of them.
Nick, is it 8 wheel drive as in all 8 wheels are on the ground when driving?
Or, is it like Big Nipper/Top-Bot/Chalkie when the 8 wheels are small and only 4 wheels are on the ground at a time with 4 wheels in the air for being inverted?
lol @ Nick
Its one great superbot!
HEAT A
Biohazard moves on.
HEAT B
Dunno
HEAT C
Perhaps NAP2 or Ha-ka can do something to take care of Tempest before the heat finals, but if MOE winds up against it in anything other than a heat, 70% chance MOE will lose.
Meh, Tempest, damn you Frank.
HEAT D
Dunno.
HEAT E
Achilles (25) can do it.
HEAT F
Flipping Mad TU (11) vs No Close Shave 2 vs Stinger vs Wedga Revo
Wedge Devolution (27) vs Blizzard vs Glasgow Kiss vs Happy Birthday Party Pooper
A very wedgey Heat final and semis, I think. Flipping Mad possibly, but I dont really know.
HEAT G
Oh dear. Dunno.
HEAT H
One of the several real robots (any really) could take it. Crashing Bore could certainly get through, I just dont want it to.
HEAT I
Dallas to go through, in flying chainsaw colors.
HEAT J
Angel Of The Abyss (14)
Megabyte
Stratosfear
One of those... Glad I could narrow it down for ya.
HEAT K
I guess well find out.
HEAT L
Dont know, dont care.
HEAT M
MDU will put on a show, plowing through its first target, and getting stuck in a wall. Hypertension or Dieceratops to go through.
HEAT N
Dont know, dont care.
HEAT O
Typhoon 2 (20) or Well Buy You A New One Tomorrow Mrs Brown
HEAT P
Who knows?
|||Nick, is it 8 wheel drive as in all 8 wheels are on the ground when driving? |||
Yes.
|||Its one great superbot.|||
Geez, Andy. 10 weapons? Are you going to use even three of them? They can be simplified into: weapon X for attacking spinners, and weapon Z for attacking pushybots.
Why not have a strategy? Instead of just entering 10 robots under the same name with something different on the front. Im just going to keep the thick ablative ali layer of armor on VGer until it runs into one of Aarons spinners, and they may well get weeded out before then, since so many people have modular weapons to fight them now.
Nah, I only usually use the scoop but the weird ones come in handy every now and then. (eg. last VFT final)
I only made WX6.0 for this series to get that seeding, Martyn isnt gonna get it off me for doing nothing. :P
