Oops, I made a mybad. Apparantly, according to Alex, I didnt say it was invertible in the stats. Thats strange, I thought I did...oh well. Is it clear now?

Thats not fair!
Of course its fair.
Im not exactly sure about how thesell match up, so it may end up a bit different. But...
Heat A
Black Panther Queen
Cosmic Thunder 2
Judo Chop!
Natural Selection
S.D. IV
Yet Another Cut Above The Rest
To me, this seems like an excellent heat. We have a powerful disc, with YACATR. S.D. IV provides another semi-powerful cutter. Black Panther has its coolio hammer. And Cosmic Thunder has a pretty cool flipper. Judo Chop! and Natural Selection dont look all that good to me though... The Splinter design was semi-good, yet it had a lack of power. Mostly because stronger armor was usually put on the sides than the top. It doesnt seem the best to me. Natural selection... well it wont do good against the discs, seeing as it has weak armor. Also its slow self-righter and speed make it weak to Cosmic Thunder... It probably wont do too well in this heat.
Between YACATR, S.D. IV and Cosmic Thunder... hmm... S.D. IV could probably take out Cosmic Thunder, maybe. Then again, CT has good armor and having no undercutter on SD will hinder it. Though either one could lose or win against YACATR.
Heat B
Flank Attack
Love Bite V2.0
Mega Masher 2
SOR 5.0
Storm 2
Tengu VII
Hmm... Storm 2 has a good chance here. SOR is pretty slow, so thatll hinder it. Tengu VII could do well if it didnt go up against anyone with good armor like Storm 2. Flank Attack could also stop Tengu in his jaws, and can really use that plow here to get under the likes of low robots and get them in his jaws. Love Bite seems a little too fast, while Mega Masher seems a little too slow.
Heat C
Disco 5
Going Crunch
Leprosy Infection
Omniforce
Shovearound 2
Whirligig 4.0
Dun care this isnt my heat =D
If I had to put my money on two robots though, it would have to be Shoveareound 2 and Whirligig.
Heat D
Clawdius Decimus Murderous
GeForce 4.0
Kali
Panicking
SUNCUST
The Windmill
I honestly think this is the perfect heat for The Windmill. SUNCUST is really boxy, good hits for that bar. Panicking cant do much to The Windmill without being hit. Kali has those jucy wheels protected only bar a small wheel guard bar. GeForce might prove to be some trouble, but if I can hit those pistons all the better. And Clawdius has some nice places I can hit.
Heat E
Axe-O-Lotl
Cyberdemon
Malaria
Psyclonised
Slammer V
Wind Chaser
Thisll be hard, I think Slammer V has a good chacne.
Heat F
13Black
Achilles
Cacodemon
Killotine: EVO
Orka MK4
Rammy mk 3
Achillies, Cacodemon, and Killotine will do well here.
Heat G
360
Bloody Tears 2
Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus
Forcepower 5.0
Forklift 2
Tails
DcRi, will do well. And hopefully Tail =)
Heat H
Dante
FBSDS
Novastorm 2
Obliteration
Wedge Devolution
Wild Thing S4
FBSDS could really rip up the opponents, and Wedge Deco could do a good flip here. Novastorm is another robot with potential in this heat.
Heat A
Black Panther Queen
Cosmic Thunder 2
Judo Chop!
Natural Selection
S.D. IV
Yet Another Cut Above The Rest
Main theory: SD IV
Dark horse: me! (hopefully)
Im really pleased with the current panther, so hopefully with a lot of powerful flips and axing should do well. hit and run as per usual.
Heat B
Flank Attack
Love Bite V2.0
Mega Masher 2
SOR 5.0
Storm 2
Tengu VII
Main: SOR 5
Dark horse: storm 2
Me: Tengu had a probably unmatched track record at the minute so I like my chances - tengu runs at approximatly the top end of typhoons potential therefore Im not overly worried about storm, its doable.
Heat C
Disco 5
Going Crunch
Leprosy Infection
Omniforce
Shovearound 2
Whirligig 4.0
Theory: whirligig
Dark horse: disco
Heat D
Clawdius Decimus Murderous
GeForce 4.0
Kali
Panicking
SUNCUST
The Windmill
Theory: CDM
Dark horse: geforce
A more diffiult heat, kali runs like storm 2 focused on its weapon rather than armour, just get people over and under controll as quickly as possible.
Heat E
Axe-O-Lotl
Cyberdemon
Malaria
Psyclonised
Slammer V
Wind Chaser
Theory: none really
Im not really familiar with any of these, however the latest slammer is a much stronger design and hasnt had much of an airing, so this is an ideal oppertunity, match the opponent.
Heat F
13Black
Achilles
Cacodemon
Killotine: EVO
Orka MK4
Rammy mk 3
Theory: killotine
Dark horse: me!
Quite pleased with current achilles preformance, however I dont know much bout my opponents, therefore Ill have to be sure.
Heat G
360
Bloody Tears 2
Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus
Forcepower 5.0
Forklift 2
Tails
Main: forcepower
Dark horse: tails
Heat H
Dante
FBSDS
Novastorm 2
Obliteration
Wedge Devolution
Wild Thing S4
Main: wedge
Dark horse: dante
Dante is a very strogn design, its very difficult to fight, so I like my chances here.
Anthony; yup, your stats didnt say Judo Chop! is invertible, nor did it say something about a srimech, but I know enough now, thanks for that
Kevin; whats not fair? 8 people entered before you did. Steven, Tony, Chris M, Chris C, Andy, Martyn, Alex H and Alex M and W all entered before you did. You asking a question about the rules doesnt take away that fact, like Alex M and W mentioned earlier
anyway...
A glimpse of things to come...
Heat A
Round 1
Black Panther Queen vs Cosmic Thunder 2 vs Yet Another Cut Above The Rest
Judo Chop! vs Natural Selection vs S.D. VI
I want tactics, I want predictions, I want thoughts and I want a new Ferrari![]()
*Hands Martijn a brand new ferrari*
Can I borrow that for a minute?
*Bashes Dave over the head with the ferrari* Thanks.
Judo Chop! VS Natural Selection VS SD IV
If Steve wants to team up on Natural Selection, just weaken NS by ramming it into the wall and firing the axes like a madman, in a area that he cant attack from, and let SD IV finish it. If not, same stragety basically, ram it into the wall, axe like mad until I run out, then push whats left into the pit.
HEAT A
ROUND 1
1) Black Panther Queen VS Cosmic Thunder 2 VS Yet Another Cut Above the Rest
Very tough call, but Id narrow it down to Cosmic and YACATR to go out. Maybe Cosmic to lose a judges decision.
2) Judo Chop! VS Natural Selection VS S.D. IV
For this bout, Spin Dash will indeed head for Natural Selection. Basically, stick to the sides and try to rip through the skirts. The saw is about 3mm thick, so itll easily fit under the 7mm clearance if I get past the skirting. From then on, rip those wheels to high heaven.
Failing this, just plain ram!
Go, Marti!![]()
Melee 1 - Very close, and should be a fantastic opener. I think Cosmic Thunder to just be edged out.
Melee 2 - I thought this was close at first, but I dont think Natural Selection will survive the team up. Sorry Chris.
