Leprosy Infection vs Shovearound 2 vs Whirligig 4.0

Basically treat Whirligig as a mobile hazard, just keep slamming Leprosy Infection into it again and again and again and again. Whirligigs shell is very durable, so im pretty sure Leprosy Infection will die first, even if I do it with the weapon first, which ill only do if I have to, ill mainly get under it from the sides and the rear or front only if I have to.

Disco 5 vs Going Crunch vs Omniforce

Drive around, have some fun, push some things.

LEPROSYS TACTICS

Do NOT touch Whirligig. Spin the drum up to full speed, then keep hitting Shovearound 2 in any weak spot possible. If possible, try to keep in league with W 4.0. Not quite a team-up, more of a Please dont hurt me, I have a great respect for you kinda thing.

HEAT C
ROUND 1
1) Leprosy Infection VS Shovearound 2 VS WHIRLIGIG 4.0
...um...spin up and hit anything that dares to cross my path?

2) Disco 5 VS Going Crunch VS OmniForce
Chris clusterbot could be in for a tough time against these two, especially with OmniForces manoueverability. Going Crunch to be going home

Cracking job, Marti!

My first heat final win! With a robot similarly resembling to Tough as Nails. Remind you of anyone? =D. Heh, nice result there Martijn.

Wow, first time against Tengu and everything is already falling apart. =P Better steal Steves plastic spanner then, for the repairs. =P

As for predictions...

Leprosy Infection vs Shovearound 2 vs Whirligig 4.0

Whirligig probably has the best chances here, since the other two are going to be going at it like all hellz. Of the other two, Id have to choose Shovearound, unless LI can get enough good hits that it bends up the lifter and eventually takes it out.

Disco 5 vs Going Crunch vs Omniforce

Disco 5 should easily go through here, taking out either Going, or Crunch with ease; Omniforce would handle the other one at the same time, and eventually both would go out.

GC can fight joined Top Speed: 14 MPH when joined. Flipper 18 MPH separate. Spinner 14 MPH separate so i might well start there and start them driving sepertely if it gets hairy. GC has always survived its first battle, but looking at the opponents, there may be a first time for everything

Omniforce is slower, if i can seperate late in the fight, i might be able to use that, absloute zero turning circle is useless against a pincer, ill probably want to stay away from Disco if possible but ill take it on if necesary.

As useless as the pincer trying to grab a robot that is just going to straife out of the way... :wink:
