If Chris goes for it, then team up with him to flip that Psycho over. With us working as a team, and my three 750 psi pistons we should get him over. Then, I should be lower than Bulldog Breed as well so just get under him and flip him oota.

Dead Metal could probably get Killotine in its grasp, so just take him and shove him everywhere while cutting him up. Dont let go. If he eventually dies, then do the same for Spawn Again.

Tough as Nails could probably grasp around Sgt. Bash, and crunch him to dead. (SGT. has horrible armor) and pit him or something. Then turn on Die Cera whatever, and if I can, grab him too and go for a pit. Though, I might change my strategy if I can get some STATS.

DIE-CERATOPS RE-INVERTUS

Weight; 100 kilos
Body Shape: Wheely Big Cheese
Speed; 15mph
TC; 0
GC; 0mm at front, 3mm at sides and back.
Wheels; 2 inner, sticking out only slightly,
Armour; 8mm titanium
Power; 3x 12v batteries, powered by a couple of Magmotors
Colour; Green, with Killer Carrot style wrinkles, mouth and eyes. One of the eyes has a plaster over it, the other is a black eye. A few bandages are painted on this time.
Weapons: A huge Wheely Big Cheese style flipper, capable of flipping a tonne or so.
Srimech; As the name suggests, the robot runs inverted. Bars prevent side strandings, and the back is rounded, so stranding THAT way is outta the question. The flipper works upside down.
Inspiration; Ive always liked Dinosaurs. This is a pun of Triceratops. The Invertus part is pretty obvious.
Strengths; The ability to work upside down and still be able to use its weapon, now easier to control.
Weaknessess: Tengu VI

BIO
Orkas cute-on-one-side-pure-hell-on-tuther friend, Die-Ceratops is equally as powerful and as nippy as his buddy. In the arena, he can get to oppodents/victims in record time. Then, once his flipper is underneath them, they can kiss the ground good-bye. Of course, hes teamed with me, and I can be rather protective over him...

Anyways...

DIE-CERATOPS REINVERTUS TACTICS
Sgt Bash MAY last 10 seconds. I think my traction is superior to TAN, in which case I can drag it where I want, FOOTA it, or do a Storm 2 and pit it whilst its still holding on, so it has nowhere to go. THINK. If its not superior, then things get a tad more interesting.

BULLDOG BREEDS TACTICS
Somehow I dont think the big guys gonna be too happy over what I did to Growler, and CT2 doesnt look like itll go easy either. Just flip and hope for the best.

SIR KILLALOTS TACTICS
Chaos 2 has not been able to flip Sir K (indeed, Sir K is the only house bot not to have been flipped over*, so thats a bonus in itself), so try and lure it on and get the lance under its open flipper. Deal with Cyberdemon when I come to it.

*Please do note, I said flipped. As in with a flipper. Toppling (which hes done at least once before) is another matter.

ROUND 1

KILLOTINE: EVO - stay with DMs sides and hammer the semi-exposed innards until fatal death. Then, get under Spawn Again from the sides to grapple n Pit with better traction.

CHAOS 2 - oh dear. Either flip Cyberdemon straight away and attempt to OOTA or gang up on Sir K with him. Whichevers least painful.

MR PSYCHO - too hefty to push that much. Hammer each a few times for fun and either get a grip on them to drop them out the ring or just shove them into the Pit

Okay with stats, I have a better idea of how to deal with DCR.

Pretend to team up with DCR while going for Sgt. Bash with him, but then fall behind. Whilst behind him, grip his wheels and ensure no traction. If this arena has a pit, then pit him. If not, then push him into the Sgt.s claw. Try to get his wheels dead. Once DCR is taken care of, then go for the good ol Sgt. I should grip on the sides and really kill him.

To redo my tactics for Dead Metal. Do the same thing, except with Spawn Again. SA has flat sides and should make a good target. Plus I can shove him into Killotine who can axe him to death.

Cyberdemon: Team up with Steve, stay spun up, and even though my control sucks, Killalots speed isnt excactly first-rate, so it kind of evens out. So try to keep ramming into the armored bathtubs back at full speed, and if that dosent work, get Steve to distract him while Im free to take out the tracks. Once hes out of the picture, stick and move and try to take out the side panel and a wheel. A few more full speed rams should finish him off.
Spawn Again: Err, not much I can do here, Unless Steves willing to team up. Get under and TRY to flip it over. If that dosent work, try pushing it from the side. if THAT dosent work, Im screwed. But I can still act as bait to distract Dead Metal and let Steve hammer away if he gets a clear shot to the side. Once hes out of the picture, try to sneak behind, push into the wall, and flip him clean OOTA.
Sgt Bash: Grip TAN right from the get-go, torch it all the way, and try to pit it ASAP. Might not work, but meh, gotta try. Dont let go either unless im force to: If Dieceratops tries to flip me OOTA and suceeds, TAN has a shot at going down with me. If I dont go down with TAN but TAN goes down, then repeat with Dieceratops.

Okay, its time for Battle # 1
COSMIC THUNDER 2 vs. BULLDOG BREED vs. MR. PSYCHO

Cosmic Thunder 2 is a vapourbot entered by Alex, it has a low flipper, and if that fails, it can run either way up. It is very low to the ground, but the armour is weak.

Bulldog Breed is a real robot entered by Chris Mason, it has a low flipper, and runs very fast. It is also very manouverable, but isnt the strongest of pushers however.

Mr. Psycho is a house robot entered by Steve McG, it has a claw and a hammer, and runs on tracks. It is very heavy, but is not very fast compared to the other robots.

Roboteers Stand By!

Booth 1: Alex M & W and Chris Mason
Booth 2: Steven McGregor

3, 2, 1, ACTIVATE!
Cosmic Thunder 2 goes for the hefty house robot, and Bulldog Breed awaits an attack, Mr. Psycho attacks Cosmic Thunder 2 with the weak hammer, and slowly backs up, and avoids a flip. Bulldog Breed then goes and flips Cosmic Thunder 2, Cosmic Thunder 2s flipper took damage from the hammer of Mr. Psycho, and similar to Chaos 2 vs. SMIDSY in Series 5 of Robot Wars, where Chaos 2 couldnt get up after SMIDSY attacked the flipper with the disc before Chaos 2 flipped itself over, Cosmic Thunder 2 is suffering through the similar problem, however, thankfully for Cosmic Thunder 2 it runs both ways up. Bulldog Breed decides to go for Mr.Psycho, while Cosmic Thunder 2 hits the pit release button, the square hole opens up in the middle of the floor, Mr. Psycho attacks Bulldog Breed with the flipper, then slowly tries to catch up to Cosmic Thunder 2, however, since the arena is only so wide, Mr. Psycho catches it, and grabs it with the claw, it then lifts up Cosmic Thunder 2, and drops it out of the arena!
The Cosmic Adventures are over for Cosmic Thunder 2!

Bulldog Breed then charges into the slow to back up Mr. Psycho, and then it gets straight underneath the heavy house robot, and then with a big OOMPH, it gets under Mr. Psycho, and flips it straight over, and crashes it onto the side wall. All thats left to do is for Refbot to come and count out Psycho. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!
CEASE!

Mr. Psycho has gone plain psycho!

BULLDOG BREED ADVANCES TO ROUND 2!!!

Congrats to Chris Mason!
