Final:
Dr. Acula v Nitro-Gene 4.0

Let€™s see look back on this tournament and see how these two manic masters of mayhem got this far:
They were in the same round one melee, and Symmetry€™s batteries ran out of power to eliminate Leo Van Miert. Then the fight went to a judge€™s decision to determine who would prevail from the remaining three robots, and Minesweeper was eliminated.
In the first semi-final Namie€™s Style took damage from the claws of Dr. Acula and was eliminated while in the second The Alexandra Sisters proved to be too lightweight and were flipped out of the competition.

Booth 1: Jamie McHarg
Booth 2: Paul Cuomo

ACTIVATE!

And we€™re off to a very quick start, Nitro-Gene seems very aggressive, homing in on Acula, but the doctor is ready and twists around in an attempt to get the wedge underneath Nitro-Gene€™s skirts! But for now they hold up and Nitro-Gene gets underneath the side of the component pod on Dr. Acula and throws it into the air! Dr. Acula cartwheels sideways, but lands the right way up and chases Nitro-Gene again, this time succeeding in getting under the skirts and grabbing the side with the claws! And now Jamie rams Nitro-Gene 4.0 into the pit release tyre, signalling the lowering of the pit and the wailing of the siren that alerts the crowd of the pit-lowering!
PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT, PIT!
They want to see that puff of smoke and Jamie does too, but Paul fires the flipper and loosens Acula€™s grip just enough for Paul to escape! The crowd roar with surprise as Nitro races away, the turns to come back on the attack and stacks Dr. Acula on the arena side wall! And now Paul comes in to finish the job with one almighty flip- but he knocks Jamie off the wall when he comes in and Dr. Acula escapes, only to turn around quickly and grab Nitro-Gene from behind! And once again Jamie is in control it seems, but Nitro€™s front wheels are still on the ground and Paul pulls Dr. Acula towards the chasm! Jamie does the sensible thing and let€™s go, but it could be a mistake even if Acula had gone into the pit because now Nitro-Gene comes on another onslaught and throws Dr. Acula over and over again, Jamie€™s machine bouncing noisily across the floor and finally coming to land in the corner! But now Dr. Acula is upside down and when Paul attacks again he doesn€™t flip Jamie back over, but rams him around, especially into the angle grinders! Jamie desperately tries to get away, but Paul is persistent and keeps pushing Dr. Acula back into the wall, until finally Dr. Acula gets beached on Nitro€™s wedge and Paul heads towards the pit! The crowd goes wild with excitement- is this the end of the bout? No, it would seem, as Dr. Acula simply refuses to slide off Nitro-Gene€™s wedge when Paul gets to the pit! And the only way Paul could get Dr. Acula in would be driving in himself, and he may hit the bottom first and lose, so he€™s not going to try it! But what he does try is use the flipper to punt Dr. Acula up into the air and in, but too much power and Jamie flies right across the pit and lands the right way up, before he comes back on the attack and grabs hold of Nitro-Gene€™s raised flipper arm! But now it seems that wasn€™t such a good idea, as Paul drives to the pit and dangles Dr. Acula over the side! If Jamie lets go he€™s toast, but time is ticking down and those claws are losing purchase on Nitro-Gene!
10... 9...
Dr. Acula slips very slightly...
8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3...
And now one claw slips and let€™s go completely, so Dr. Acula is hanging onto dear life with just one claw!
2... 1...
Dr. Acula slips off!

Dr. Acula may have slipped, but it didn€™t hit the pit until after CEASE was called! We now have to go to a judge€™s decision!
