The Returners Tournament

[paulc]

Heat A

Wedgas Revenge vs Axes of Evil vs WBC - Interesting first round, where Im afriad I believe the newcomer of Axes Of Evil is going to go out here.

Tira III vs Hector vs Y4 - Havent seen Tira in combat, but Ive seen the photo and believe him to get through striaght away. With who is another question.

Heat Winner: WEDGAS REVENGE

Heat B

Chalkie 3G vs Gravity vs Metalmorphosis - A chance of a Gravity going out is quite small, but I believe he will go out.

Turbo Tails vs Hypno-Disc vs Axe to Fall - Hypno-Disc is going out. Axe To Fall will destroy it.

Heat Winner: AXE TO FALL

Heat C

Wedginator 6.0 vs Tengu VII vs TAN - Tengu and Wedginator are powerful and sucessful and Tengu is also deadly and shall tear the wheels off TAN. Goodbye to the real robot.

Leprosy Infection vs Flipping Mad 7 vs Drilla Killa 7 - Leprosy Infection through for sure. Dont know with who else though.

Heat Winner: WEDGINATOR 6.0

Heat D

Razer vs Metal Sonic Spin Dash vs Air - Razers going out here - the hedgehog will tear up the underbelly.

Behemoth vs 259 vs Dante - 259 is going to be smashed around the arena by Dante and beaten.

Heat Winner: DANTE

Heat E

Sheer Heart Attack vs A.R.R.T.D.S vs ForcePower - Blast! Im going to ask Martijn for a gang-up on ForcePower. If we can take him out early on, well have a better chance of winning.

Killotine Evo vs Mechavore vs Ringwraith - Mechavore is going, because it cant self-right and its disc isnt going to harm either of these two.

Heat Winner: KILLOTINE: EVO

Heat F

Crimson Thunder vs Mega Masher 2 vs Big Nipper - Would Danny like to team-up on Mega Masher to try and bring him down. If Dannyrefuses, go for Mega Masher and try to get the claws around the disc. Once this happens, drag him over to the pit and drop him in.

With or Without you vs The Zenith vs GeForce - With Or Without You could suffer in this battle.

Heat Winner: GEFORCE 4.0

Heat G

Tornado vs The Riddler vs Snakebite 4 - Tornados already through, maybe with Snakebite.

Trax vs WAFT vs Knocking-Out - My new robot has more power than either of these other two robots put together. Ram into WAFT and push him around before hammering him whilst he is pinned and keep him hammering until Im told to back off. If Trax comes in, do the same to him.

Heat Winner: SNAKEBITE 4

Heat H

Aftershock vs Double Killa vs Whirligig 4.0 - The current E.O.T.R Champion to breeze through this, with Kodys Aftershock.

Hexadecimator vs Mortgage vs Achilles - Achilles and Mortgage to win via flipping Hexy onto its back.

Heat Winner: WHIRLIGIG 4.0

Heat I

Storm II vs Sewer Snake vs Envy - Storm II is through for sure here as well. Maybe with Envy who will flip Sewer Snake OOTA.

GigaByte vs Turbulence vs MORD2 - Turbulence might go, unless it can flip the very large GigaByte OOTA.

Heat Winner: STORM II

Heat J

Shadow Zone vs Baldur Gamma vs Axe-O-Lotl - Shadow Zone and Axe-O-Lotl win here by pitting Baldur.

YACATR vs Mighty Mouse vs MeCannibal - YES! Mygo, and Ive been put in with two robot that cant kill spinners! Go for YACATR, as Im heavily shock-proofed, but hes only shock-proofed, so ram into the disc and blow him apart. If that doesnt work, destroy Mighty Mouse in all its glory.

Heat Winner: SHADOW ZONE

Heat K

Back to Rock 2 vs Terrorhurtz vs Cyclone Force 2.5 - Im dead already, so just go for the faint hope of hammering Back To Rock and hope the safety link falls out.

Cat With Wheels vs Psyclonised vs Clawdius Decimus Murderous - Cat With Wheels is going to suffer a bit of issues here, especially if either of these two get it. Goodbye Danny

Heat Winner: CLAWDIUS DECIMUS MURDEROUS

Heat L

Chaos 2 vs Death Threat 0.1 vs Quocunque Jeceris Stabit - Death Threat to go through straight away, but not sure about the other two.

Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus vs Salamander III vs Flick of the Wrist - OMG! This is a battle! I dont really know, but Ill have to go with Flick to go out as Salamander will rip apart its armour.

Heat Winner: SALAMANDER III

Heat M

Seung Mina III vs Merlin vs Hells Teeth 4wd - Go for Hells Teeth and attack for rear, as the disc cant damage me. Push him into the arena wall and thow his back onto it before throwing his front out as well. If Kody wants to help me on this Ill be happy to.

A Night at the Bar vs Velociraptor vs Death Adder 3 - Martijn to win here along with Death Adder 3.

Heat Winner: SEUNG MINA III

Heat N

Typhoon 2 vs Son of Wedgie vs Autoism - Pretty obvious plan - run after Typhoon, catch him and put him on his side. Dont bother about Son Of Wedgie unless I have to.

Super Gore Evo vs Obliteration vs SOR - Obliteration is going down...the pit.

Heat Winner: SOR

Heat O

Darkestar vs Dantomkia vs Aneurysm - Darkestar might get his tracks cut by Aneurysm, or Dantomkia might flip Darkestar OOTA. Basically, Darkestar isnt going to win.

Orka MK4 vs Nitro-Gene 2.0 vs Agro 3.5 - My battle and a good-one. This is when my improvments come into play - Im targeting Agro 3.5s sides and having a go flipping him OOTA. Plain and simple - if I cant get to him, go for Orka and use the same plan.

Heat Winner: ANEURYSM

Heat P

Flipping Mad vs Avarice vs Wedge Devoloution - Wedge Devolution is going through easily. With Avarice.

Megabyte vs Slammer vs Liar - Slammers going out, as its not as strong as it used to be.

Heat Winner: WEDGE DEVOLUTION

(I didnt vote for myself for obvious reasons )

I hope these prediction suit all of you.

[majinb]

thanks for the extra time Frank, right now With or Without you and Another Night at the Bar are done, Sheer Heart Attack 2 will be done today, and everything else is just bonus

[swanaldo]

envy would get under storm 2 every day as the scoop on envy literally shaves the floor. the only robot envy struggled to get under wad big nipper as they can use their weapon to actually dig into the floor making it impossible to get under. genius really from the Lumb lads. not sure about turb i think it would be a close battle as dave is a good driver. not sure about the rest and like frank says it all depends on the arena so your predictions are all flawd paul.

[kodster]

You know what, Im going to be a complete ass and give tactics and predictions for the fights as though it was a RW arena they were fighting in. Just to give myself a little warm-up.

My tactics and predictions for the REAL contests will come in as the heats progress.

Heat A

Wedgas Revenge vs Axes of Evil vs WBC

I honestly dont see Wheely Big Cheese surviving long.

Tira III vs Hector vs Y4

Ah, me darling hath made it in. Her tactics: Go for Y4. Toss it around with the disc. Maybe even rip out the flipping arm. If Alex wants to help out, he is quite welcome to.

Winner: Probably Wedga

Heat B

Chalkie 3G vs Gravity vs Metalmorphosis

Cant predict until I know what system Meta uses, but I think Ill take Chalkie to get tossed OOTA by Gravity.

Turbo Tails vs Hypno-Disc vs Axe to Fall

Poor old Hypno-Disc; hes going out. :sad:

Winner: Tails or Axe

Heat C

Wedginator 6.0 vs Tengu VII vs TAN

Well seeing as my tactics here might be moot I guess I will attack TAN.

Leprosy Infection vs Flipping Mad 7 vs Drilla Killa 7

Flipping Mad to ripped into sub-atomic particles.

Winner: Leprosy Infection in an upset.

Heat D

Razer vs Metal Sonic Spin Dash vs Air

Actually, this doesnt look so good for Spin Dash. I think Steve might go out here.

Behemoth vs 259 vs Dante

259 out.

Winner: Razer or Dante

Heat E

Sheer Heart Attack vs A.R.R.T.D.S vs ForcePower

Bye Paul.

Killotine Evo vs Mechavore vs Ringwraith

If Mechavore can attack the sides of Killotine then MAYBE she could get through, but Im not seeing it. Mechavore out.

Winner: Dunno.

Heat F

Crimson Thunder vs Mega Masher 2 vs Big Nipper

Mega Masher could get lifted and flipped here byt the Nipper despite its bulk.

With or Without you vs The Zenith vs GeForce

The one bot I didnt want to face Martijns cluster with. Errrrr...attack GeForce?

Winner: GeForce

Heat G

Tornado vs The Riddler vs Snakebite 4

From what I remember, last time Tornado and Riddler fought, Riddler went out. But that was because of Disco. But anyway I predict the same thing to happen here. Riddler to go out.

Trax vs WAFT vs Knocking-Out

Dunno.

Winner: Snakebite IV

Heat H

Aftershock vs Double Killa vs Whirligig 4.0

Help Steve destroy Double Killa.

Hexadecimator vs Mortgage vs Achilles

Paul, Hexy is much improved since Battlebots, and it can now self-right properly. Mortgage to go out.

Winner: Achilles for obvious reasons.

Heat I

Storm II vs Sewer Snake vs Envy

Very open, this fight. Sewer Snake is hella powerful...so Im gonna say Storm II goes out in an upset.

GigaByte vs Turbulence vs MORD2

Turb out. Sorry Chez.

Winner: M.O.R.D. 2

Heat J

Shadow Zone vs Baldur Gamma vs Axe-O-Lotl

Baldur really cant be damaged, so go for Axe-O-Lotl. Ram it around, and if it really starts to become irritating, expose the Toro-flipper and toss.

YACATR vs Mighty Mouse vs MeCannibal

MeCannibal to destroy itself.

Winner: Baldur Gamma

Heat K

Back to Rock 2 vs Terrorhurtz vs Cyclone Force 2.5

I can safely say that Terrorhurtz is going out thanks to Back to Rocks nice lifter.

Cat With Wheels vs Psyclonised vs Clawdius Decimus Murderous

Cat to lose its wheels.

Winner: Psyclonised

Heat L

Chaos 2 vs Death Threat 0.1 vs Quocunque Jeceris Stabit

Death Threat out.

Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus vs Salamander III vs Flick of the Wrist

The battle of DOOM. Flick of the Wrist OOTA thanks to a flip from Die-Ceratops.

Heat winner: Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus

Heat M

Seung Mina III vs Merlin vs Hells Teeth 4wd

Im game if you are, Paul. Toss Hells Teeth around the arena like a rag doll. Wonder if it likes the taste of the arena floor... :wink:

A Night at the Bar vs Velociraptor vs Death Adder 3

Velo out.

Winner: A Night at the Bar

Heat N

Typhoon 2 vs Son of Wedgie vs Autoism

Son of Wedgie to flip Typhoon 2 and thats it.

Super Gore Evo vs Obliteration vs SOR

Assuming Son of Ripper will have a flipper in its newest incarnation , Ill avoid it and head for Obliteration. Use the clamping jaws and drag him to the pit. He shouldnt really be able to damage the claws at all, really.

Winner: Uh...me? Well if it has to be out of the others, Ill say SoR.

Heat O

Darkestar vs Dantomkia vs Aneurysm

Dantomkia out.

Orka MK4 vs Nitro-Gene 2.0 vs Agro 3.5

Nitro-Gene out. Its high ground clearance can be exploited by the others, whom have good coverage around their own sides and rear.

Winner: Orka or Darkestar

Heat P

Flipping Mad vs Avarice vs Wedge Devolution

I think its time we forced Steve to make a revision to that damned wedge. Attack Wedge Devolution. Ram the front and try to get under the Bigger Brother-style plate, and then bend up the flipper with my nice and newly reinforced axe. Dave can help out if he wants.

Megabyte vs Slammer vs Liar

Slammer out.

Winner: Megabyte. That thing can take out thick titanium!

Tournament winner: Frank for some plot-twist-involved reason.

Of course these tactics and predictions are completely void anyway since we dont know the arenas yet, so bash me all you want. It wont matter.

[paulc]

(Quote by Kody)

YACATR vs Mighty Mouse vs MeCannibal

MeCannibal to destroy itself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------

Actually, he wont. . MeCannibal has 5 inches of Titanium shock-absorbing foam to aborb attacks from myself and other weapons. But actually, YACATR has no reference to shock-proofing in its stats. So this time, just keep on going at AJs robot until its dead. If it does die, and cease is called, try tearing it apart some more, just to show off the strength of the spinner.

[dogbot4000]

Tictacs:
Megabyte:Martijn, wanna survive. If you do then you toss Slammer around while Ill spin up than we can both demolish Slammer together.
WBC: Damn it, for this heat I will toss Axes to fall around the place and hope for life I dont die. But I probably will anyway.
Sewer Snake: Ill toss Envy all over the place and Storm 2 too if he gets in the way.
Mighty Mouse: MeCannibal wanna team up Ill hide and youll destroy YACATR
Velociraptor:Martijn wanna team up if youll do than Ill drive around randomly and youll destroy death adder 3.
259:Spin up and toss over Behemoth, Dante wanna team up.
Gravity: Straight in toss one of the robots out of the arena straight out.

[dogbot4000]

With WBCs tactics I meant Axes of evil not Axes to fall.

[majinb]

quote:

Mighty Mouse: MeCannibal wanna team up Ill hide and youll destroy YACATR

Paul does the work and you hide, thats unfair!

quote:

Velociraptor:Martijn wanna team up if youll do than Ill drive around randomly and youll destroy death adder 3.

Same here

[tacoman]

Tactics only, Im no good at predicting. Also, Ill probably give more detailed one when I know the arenas

Wedgas Revenge vs AXES OF EVIL vs WBC
Go for WBC and axe the wheels.


CRIMSON THUNDER vs Mega Masher 2 vs Big Nipper
A team up sounds good. Ram Mega Masher around and let Paul get it in his grip.


CAT WITH WHEELS vs Psyclonised vs Clawdius Decimus Murderous

Ouch. Errm... hope my opponents go for each other and completely ignore me.


Chaos 2 vs DEATH THREAT 0.1 vs Quocunque Jeceris Stabit

Grapple Quocunque Jeceris Stabit and pit if I can. if not... Ill burn that bridge when I come to it.
