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.
