Well, my tactics will probably be simple for this one. As others have suggested, his tracks make extremely good targets for my powerful spinning ring so I would like to try and swerve around his front and give a couple of blows to them
Kody, can you do us a favour and check the stats for ETMT? Im certain theres hardox armour around the tracks.
quote:
Mobility: Steel tracks, with rubber strips glued in place to provide traction. These are hidden inside the robot, meaning only an axe can attack them, after flipping the machine. As there are very few Axe/flipper combos I should be safe from this If I have to go up ramps, I can remove some hardox plates to expose the tracks and make it extremely manoeuvrable as only a tracked machine can be
In the quoting of Victor Meldrew I dont believe it!
Unlucky Steven! Go Matty!
Im changing my predictions - Enter The May Tracks to make the heat final now, but even if it loses and FBSDS wins, Ill still be backing Matt.
allright then... I LOVE BIACS-LE (voted for it twice in the most underated vapour cateory), but I surely thought Whirligig would clobber it around the arena
now though, Im not so sure... guess BIACS-LE will go all the way this heat, and it deserves to!
Ah okay, I wasnt exactly sure on the stats because I couldnt find them anywhere in this thread :P
I guess, as a change of plans, to go for his front but to swerve off to the side so that his flipper doesnt get under me but I do get to slam him which would most likely fling him away (or at the very least, spin him around) giving me a clear shot at his back/sides
No change of plans here. I think Ill be a lot more controllable making my plan easier to use than his
FBSDS vs. Enter the May Tracks (7)
FBSDS took turns with Whirligig 4.0 smashing Allanon to miniscule scraps.
Enter the May Tracks (7) successfully added another OOTA to his scorecard after tossing Panic Attack over the fence.
Roboteers, stand by...
Booth 1: Enter the May Tracks
Booth 2: FBSDS
Taki-san enters her CPZ first, and Ancalagon the Black gets to his a second later.

ACTIVATE!!
EtMT charges off towards the blue spinner but his plan goes astray when he finds FBSDS already up to speed! He hastily backs away but FBSDS keeps the distance the same by advancing on his prey! But the predator is no longer on the offensive, as EtMT suddenly flies at him!
CRASH!
EtMT jolts backwards, performing a little jump as it does so but FBSDS performs the greater act by flying across the arena in the opposite direction! EtMT seems a little stunned by that blow however, and isnt able to take advantage of FBSDS flight, and only moves a second quicker than FBSDS, who is able to get away and spin up again. EtMT warily approaches, luckily not taking any damage from the last blow but here comes FBSDS to try to cause some! EtMT just travels right into him.
CRASH!
Its EtMT who is flung away this time, sent spinning across the arena, and FBSDS is still flung back a bit but not as far. There is now some visible damage on EtMTs right side at the front, a light gouge but nothing more. EtMT comes after the tricky spinner but FBSDS just dodges the charge again, but EtMT turns and smacks into him for the third time!
CRASH!
Its a noticeable hit thanks to some sparks, but FBSDS is the worse off now, flung against the wall in front of EtMT, who pounces upon the opportunity, geting under FBSDS and FLIP! EtMT racks up another OOTA as FBSDS lands upside-down on the camera track, tries to right and hits the wall.
CEASE!
FBSDS felt a bite of PWNAGE.
Enter the May Tracks (7) advances to the Heat D Final!

So were at another heat final

Enter the May Tracks (7) vs. BIACS-LE
The seed may track through (), but Matts robot is very damaging, and I seem to remember reading that it did quite a lot of damage to Wedge Devolution, a machine with thicker armour than the Tracks.
My prediction is for BIACS-LE to enter for the semis and for Enter The May Tracks to enter the scrapyard
That said, FBSDS would have been a heavier hitter than BIACS-LE, and I got through that OK.
Basically, Ill have to use similar tactics. Push it around, feed it to house robots and try to get it down the pit or OOTA. Keep flipping him, if hes in the air, hes not attacking.
