All-Stars
Firestorm V vs. Nightmare
Representing Graham Bone and Team Firestorm: Firestorm V! Hes scorched opponents with that awesome front-hinged flipper and appeared in the Grand Final three times. Very low to the ground, and very capable of sliding underneath opposing skirts with that wedge blade. He also has pretty decent armour, but with only 2WD he wont be much of a shover.![]()
Representing Jim Smentowski and Team Nightmare: Nightmare! Thats his name, and knocking the hell out of other robots is his game!The disc travels at 1600rpm and is SERIOUSLY powerful. In reality, though, hes got NO armour, only a (very sturdy) chassis, and he doesnt look that balanced despite being flipped only once.
Very experienced, these two, excellent drivers, but who will get their stuffing beaten in this War of Independence?
Roboteers, stand by...
Booth 1: Firestorm V
Booth 2: Nightmare
House Robots: Double Big Mac, Asterix Heroicus

ACTIVATE!
Lets go! Firestorm is off the mark and crashing into Nightmare, who turns to give Firestorm a taste of his wheel. Firestorm crashes into the wheel and is struggling to get under the side of it. This gives Nightmare plenty of time to get that lovely disc going, but Firestorm turns and has a go at Nightmares rear. Nightmare tries to spin around but his tail wedge is pushed around by Firestorm and he cant seem to get around and attack. Likewise, Firestorm is unable to slide under that rear wedge, even from the side of it...oh, no wait, hes under it, but not all the way, only the wedge blade, and NOT the wedge itself, is under it. Nightmares tail suddenly scrapes the arena wall as it passes, and Firestorm is jolted into the tail, and completely under it! Nightmare drives off, however, before he goes off-balance, and spins around to face Firestorm. Firestorm is already driving at it, right at one of the wheels, but Jim backs his robot off, and Nightmare keeps facing Firestorm with the disc. The pressure is on, and Firestorm doesnt want to put itself at a disadvantage, so he twists here and there, trying to position himself, when Nightmare jumps the gun and comes right at him! As he nears, Firestorm pulls a U-turn, backs past Nightmare, and goes for the wheels again, from the rear. Nightmare is pushed up onto the wedge by his left wheel! Firestorm doesnt want to go too far, however, knowing that the disc is still spinning and very dangerous, and slowly pushes Nightmare, but he can only spin Nightmare clockwise. Nightmare tries to turn around...AND DOES!
CRASH!!!
The disc slams into Firestorms flipper and gashes it severely, also knocking Nightmare back quite a bit! Firestorm...is okay, and still coming straight for Nightmare, and slides right under the dormant disc, and up comes the flipper! Damaged as it is, it still works, and its got Nightmare, and Firestorm is pushing him towards the wall! NO! No flip! Nightmare manages to keep balance! Firestorm still has him, though, and decides to give him to Double Big Mac, who is nearby. This cant end well...
CRASH!!!
Nightmare is spun right around, the tail getting smashed across the side, with Firestorm still neath the disc! Asterix flies out and hammers the side of Firestorm, tilting both bots...AND NIGHTMARE IS OUT OF THE ARENA!!! What a tactic! What a hoist! Firestorm has just flipped Nightmare over the fence! A SUPERB flip, right into the middle of the tilted Nightmare, and sent it disc-first, right over the edge, and out! Asterix backs away, which is a bad idea because now its Firestorms turn to attack the house robots, as DBM is gotten under and flipped immediately! Asterix barges in, only to find itself on Firestorms flipper and brought to the wall opposite, slammed against it with the flipper and stacked. How very pathetic.
CEASE!
Winner: Firestorm V
