Excuse me, but shouldnt that be Black Death Im fighting instead of Death Wish? :wink:

HEAT B
ROUND 2
Black Death VS KILLOTINE: EVO

With the slightly lower top speed and four wheels opposed to two, I should hopefully have the control edge. Basically, get around to the sides, power under the 5mm ground clearance and hammer the...actually, what is the armour on Black Death?

Grapple and pit as per. If I can, Ill try sticking the axe into the flipper when it opens too.

[samuel3764]

5mm hardox.. lets see you make a hole through that, STEVE! Ha!

[paulc]

Isnt 5mm Hardox onto of all that is already IN Black Death going to make it a bit heavy?

[paulc]

Well, here we go! Round Two is up and running in preparation for the Heat 2 Final! Lets get moving!

ROUND TWO:
Killotine: EVO (3) vs. Black Death
Atomic (19) vs. Merlin

KILLOTINE: EVO vs. BLACK DEATH

Booth #1: Steven M
Booth #2: Samuel P

Roboteers, stand by!!!

3€¦2€¦1€¦activate!!!

BLACK DEATH LAUNCHES ITSELF AWAY FROM THE STARTING ZONE! He comes barrelling towards Killotine, but Steven performs a cunning dodge and Black Death crashes into the wall BEHIND Killotine! Steven pushes underneath the sides of the newcomer using the extension, and BRING THE AXE DOWN! One time€¦two times€¦THREE TIMES A DINT! And now holes are appearing in the skin of Black Death, and Samuel doesn€™t know what to do! He forces his robot to the left, trying to get the flipper underneath Killotine, but the wedge on the ex-champ is WAY TOO LOW! Steven backs away, and Black Death CHARGES IN ONCE MORE! Killotine dodges again as Black Death flips, and now Black Death ends up upside-down! Samuel waits for the flipper to close and it does and he quickly flips himself right! But Killotine now slams the axe into the workings of Black Death! With the axe lodged in the workings, Killotine pushes the impaled newcomer into the Hardox spikes - hard! And this is a nightmare for Samuel, but he€™s soon free, as Killotine€™s axe loosens, and turns around to use the disc! Black Death reverses onto Killotine€™s front wedge, but the solidness of the does nothing, and another rain of axe blows comes into play! The last of the many blows lands in the disc, and when retracted, the axe has a chain hanging from it! Samuel now knows what€™s happened - Killotine has broken the chain of his disc! Black Death is now toothless, and Killotine pushes it once more!
10€¦9€¦
Into the wall! Another blow from the axe!
€¦8€¦7€¦
Steven now shifts his robot slightly, and the axe comes blasting down€¦ONTO THE ARMOUR ABOVE THE LEFT TYRE OF BLACK DEATH! The armour is dented downwards, and now it can€™t move on the left side!
€¦6€¦5€¦
Killotine now backs off the half-immobile Black Death, and watches him in the middle of the ring - suffering!
€¦4€¦3€¦
Samuel€™s robot, however, just seems to be moving!
€¦2€¦1€¦CEASE!!

The end of the fight! Killotine may be executing another robot, but Black Death is still moving, so we go to the judges. Looks obvious, but did the judges spot something we didn€™t?

JD - The scores:

Dominance: All of Killotine€™s attacks were successful, and it kept the attacks of its nemesis at bay, so Killotine gets full marks for this!

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 6 = 60
Black Death: 0 x 6 = 0

Damage: With a tyre immobilised, pierced armour and disabled weapons, Black Death was completely broken apart, whereas Killotine didn€™t suffer a scratch!

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 5 = 50
Black Death: 0 x 5 = 0

Aggression: Black Death wasn€™t given the chance to be aggressive, and its mad attacks were just bad aggression, so Killotine wins this category outright.

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 4 = 40
Black Death: 0 x 4 = 0

Strategy: Killotine succeeded in its plan to disable the weaponry of Black Death, but Black Death had no possible moment of getting its plan into play.

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 3 = 30
Black Death: 0 x 3 = 00

Control: Killotine remained calm and in control all the way through, but Black Death€™s mad attacks got it into constant trouble.

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 2 = 20
Black Death: 0 x 2 = 0

Style: The weaponry of Killotine is much more impressive than just a disc and flipper, so Killotine wins this outright.

Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 1 = 10
Black Death: 0 x 1 = 0

Totals:

Killotine: EVO (3): 210
Black Death: 0

And it€™s a whitewash! The win in this fight goes to KILLOTINE: EVO!

Result:
Black Death is buried in its own grave - its coloured black!
KILLOTINE: EVO (3) GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!!!

ATOMIC vs. MERLIN

Booth #1: Alan Y
Booth #2: Stephen B/Dave S

Roboteers, stand by!!!

3€¦2€¦1€¦activate!!!

The two real flippers drive into the centre of the arena and collide together with a SMASH! Both robots hit each, and they both flip - but neither robot goes over! The flipper of Atomic retracts first, and he bashes into Merlin! The flipper gets under Merlin and soon the box-wedge is upside-down! Alan is speeding off, and a dose of compressed air puts Merlin back on its wheels! Stephen now clashes together with Merlin again, but this time, it seems that the more powerful Merlin has the edge, and the flipper gets underneath, and now Atomic is put onto its back! Atomic quickly self-rights in a stylish 180 flip -ONTO MERLIN! Alan now pushes Merlin forward and Atomic back towards the arena wall, and flips! Atomic is flipped against the wall, and self-rights away, but Merlin blocks it again, but flips Atomic OVER Merlin! Stephen now bashes under Merlin€™s sides and Dave activates the flipper to overturn Merlin again. Alan now flips himself back, but Atomic storms under it and flips it against the wall! But now, Merlin€™s sloped sides have it stuck on the wall, unable to slide down! Merlin flips once€¦twice€¦thrice€¦FO UR TIMES AND HE€™S OFF! Atomic now gets under while the flipper is raised, and a flick€¦YES! Merlin is finally out the ring!

Result:
Merlin has its magical fighting powers let it down!
ATOMIC (19) GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!!!

HEAT FINAL:
Killotine: EVO (3) vs. Atomic (19)

Send me comments, tactics, predictions and a reason to laugh at Eddie Izzard

[joey_picus]

Do you even need a reason?

Good fights Paul, and that was one incredibly one sided judges decision...Ill have to check if thats even happened before.

HEAT B FINAL:
Killotine to win this one, albeit possibly on a JD.

[paulc]

I think the closest thing to that is the C&B2 Heat E Final, which was Killotine: EVO vs. Axe-O-Lotl. Killotine: EVO won on a 23-2 decision, but nothing quite on my scale.

[paulc]

No tactics, but they are both easy to guess, so Ive written up the Heat 2 Final, so get ready...

HEAT FINAL:
Killotine: EVO (3) vs. Atomic (19)

KILLOTINE: EVO vs. ATOMIC

Booth #1: Steven M
Booth #2: Stephen B/Dave S

Roboteers, stand by!!!

3€¦2€¦1€¦activate!!!

Both robots move out tentatively towards one another, until they collide together! Atomic€™s flipper gets underneath the front of Killotine and a flip sends the ex-champion tumbling over, but the axe easily fires the robot back the right way up, but Atomic rams in again! The scot tumbles once more and again, the axe fires and it ends the right way up! Steven now reverses as Atomic plows in once more, and bashes the front, but Steven reverses once more away from the flipper, and Dave and Stephen activate their weapon too early! Killotine now brings the down, AND DRIVES THE AXE RIGHT THROUGH THE FRONT FLIPPER PLATE! The podium holder is now ploughing onwards to glory as it hits Atomic into the spikes with a BASH! Killotine is now reversing and CHARGING FORWARD AGAIN! Killotine is now pummelling Atomic to doom! The axe now loosens, and Atomic now goes for the sides, but cannot breach them! And now Steven spins and fires the axe into the armour now, as the causes a few dents, and then pierces the bodywork! Atomic flips, AND TOSSES KILLOTINE BACK! The Stephen and Dave combination uses the flipper now, but Killotine self-rights once again! Atomic charges on, but drives over the flipping spikes! Atomic bundles over, and it now fires its own self-righter, but Steven blocks it, and brings the bludgeoner down onto the base-panel! Holes appear in the base panel, and now, once Killotine backs away from Atomic, it self-rights€¦with SMOKE POURING OUT OF IT! Quite clearly, the battle is over, and so is Atomic!
10€¦9€¦8€¦7€¦6 €¦5€¦4€¦3€¦2â ‚¬Â¦1€¦cease!!!


Result:
Atomic (19) goes into literal meltdown!
KILLOTINE: EVO (3) GOES THROUGH TO THE SERIES SEMI-FINALS!!!

Next Time:

HEAT 3

ROUND ONE:
Black Panther Queen (5) vs. Tough As Nails vs. Exertion
Turbo Tails (21) vs. Intrigue vs. Paralyzation

Send in tactics, predictions, comments and a door for the front of my house

[kodster]

W00tiness, Paul.

Heat 3
Black Panther Queen (5) vs. Tough As Nails vs. Exertion

Tough As Nails isnt going to be so tough when hes getting shoved all around the arena. TAN out.

Turbo Tails (21) vs. Intrigue vs. Paralyzation

I propose a team-up with Steve-O to destroy Paralyzation. The drum shouldnt damage me that much, but avoid it anyway. Get to the sides of Paralyzation, smack the exposed wheels, and push it around with my superior power. Feed it to Turbo Tails rear bar and see if it can rip off some of Paralyzations panels.

[andrewj]

«Black Panther Queen vs. TAN vs. Exertion»

I shall be going for TAN here, and I will team up with BPQ as long as Alex agrees. Should be able to push it around with relative ease and feed it to the hazards.

Im guessing Paralyzation will be going out in the other melee.

[steven_mcg]

Woohoo!

And sure, Kody. Why not?
