w00t! Go Solstice! Go Seung Mina!
Gravity may have a very powerful flipper, but it also has a moderate ground clearance and a tendency to wheelie (in RW7 anyway). Killotine will try to get under Gravitys sides, grapple it with the axe and use its superior push to dump it in the pit before it can wriggle free.
Ah, yes, I forgot my tactics.
Life vs. Solstice 2.0
Doesnt matter if Life has a front 4mm Hardox wedge: my blades are long enough to strike it without him impacting into the main body, and send him flying, and thatll score me points even if its not damaged. Ill probably get knocked away too, but then I can spin up while he recovers. If he gets at the main body, just drive right up onto and over his wedge. Try to be more aggressive than he will be, and KEEP HITTING IT, mainly those lovely sides and rear.
SCITCAT:
Box rush. Try and get over there before it can spin up, and go for the OOTA...if I cant get in there before he spins up to dangerous speeds, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DRIVE INTO THE SPINNER. Ill try and keep to the arena walls and get Solstice to hit something other than me, like the walls or flipper, and that should slow down or stop the spinner so I can get underneath, or even better, kill it through shock damage. I might also try and lure it over the spikes or flipper, but try and do so while keeping my front to him so as not to expose too much. Only use the flipper if I can flip him into the pit or OOTA...
Good luck Kody
Eliminator 26/32:
Gravity v Killotine: EVO
Gravity was a semi-finalist of RW7, beaten by the then-champions Tornado when they were bulldozed into the pit.
Killotine: EVO is an evolution of Killotine, it has a powerful axe similar to that of Killerhurtz, and also has superior pushing power so Gravity is reliving its worse nightmare- with an axe!
Booth 1: Mark Elam
Booth 2: Steven McGregor
5,4,3,2,1, SMASH!!
Off they go, and its Killotine that draws first blood, slamming into the side of Gravity and bringing the axe crashing down to make a nice hole in the flipper! Gravity flips the axe away and comes around on its own attack, getting behind Killotine: EVO throwing it high into the air! Steven lands upside down, but quickly self-rights and reverses right up and over Gravity before slamming under the rear and using the axe as a front-hinged flipper to turn Mark onto his back! Gravity self-rights, but Killotine is ready and slams down with the axe before the flipper is shut, and co2 starts venting all over the arena! Now Killotine keeps hold as Steven said he would and slams Gravity into the pit release tyre! The siren wails, and the crowd express their true feelings!
PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT
And they get what they want!
KILLOTINE: EVO DEFIES GRAVITY!
The axe beats the flipper and Killotine: EVO goes through!

Tempest Evil-est-oution v Dervish V

Eliminator 27/32:
Tempest Evil-est-oution v Dervish V
Tempest is a powerful ring spinner that runs inverted. Its heavily shockproofed, but is only a 2-wheel drive so dont expect it to do any ramming.
Dervish V is much like Barberous, a spinning invertable cylinder with wheels on either side and lots of power!
Booth 1: Frank Goacher
Booth 2: Daniel Stickler
5,4,3,2,1, SMASH!!
Both bots spin up and head across the arena. At each other? Nope, theyre both spinning up to top speed! Now they head into a straight line (did they plan this!?), but suddenly Frank stops all the monotous stuff and speeds straight at the side wheel of Dervish!
CRASH!
The tyre flies off and now Frank spins up again as Dervish limps around!
CRASH!
In comes Tempest again and now that wheel is history! The drum of Dervish is now tearing chunks out of the floor, and so in comes Frank to put Daniel out of his misery!
CRASH!
Into the drum itself this time, and Dervish is thrown across the arena!
5,4,3,2,1, IMMOBILE!
Dervish V is over and out, Tempest Evil-est-oution goes through!
Coming Next:
Super Gore EVO v Axe to Fall

Eliminator 28/32:
Super Gore Evo v Axe to Fall
Super Gore Evo finished 4th in The Easter Bunny Tribute Championships 2008. Its a powerful gripping robot, bit those tracks are exposed from the top.
Guess what weapon Axe to Fall uses. No Mark, its not a flipper. ITS A BLOODT GREAT AXE, THATS WHAT IT IS!
Booth 1: Kody Kunz
Booth 2: Martijn M Benschop
5,4,3,2,1, SMASH!!
THEYRE OFF! And immediately its Super Gore on the attack, trying to get around to the side to get a grip on Axe to Fall! But Martijn turns to meet Kody and starts hammering him with that axe!Super Gore takes the blows and gets its claws around Axe to Fall and they sink into that Polycarbonate armour! Now its a brutal tug of war, but Martijn is still hitting SGE with his axe, and there are some small dents on the top armour of Super Gore! But that armour is tough and Kody is surely hoping that his claws are doing some damage inside Axe to Fall. And still Martijn hammers away, and neither bot is doing much movement as Kodyisnt letting go and neither can push the other very far before they push back! But now Kody seems to be gaining the advantage and pushes Axe to Fall onto the flame pit! What could have happened?
Now finally Kody lets go and reverses away, but Axe to Fall is only going in circles! It seems one of the drive motors was pierced by SGEs claws, and now Kody presses the pit release tyre before he comes back down and pushes Axe to Fall from the side, right into the pit!
THE LAST ELIMINATOR OF HEAT G IS OVER!
Super Gore Evo goes through!
Coming Next: The featherweight play-off!
Pillow Torque v Micro-Gore
Special Event- Featherweight play-off:
Pillow Torque v Micro-Gore
Pillow Torque beat DTK in the heats, but lost to Skink in the semi-finals.
Micro-Gore defeated Katnip in the heats, then lost to T.R.E.D.T.H.A.L in the semis.
Booth 1: Frank Goacher
Booth 2: Kody Kunz
5,4,3,2,1, SMASH!!
Pillow Torque gets the quicker start and presses the pit release tyre, then drives back into the center of the arena to face Micro-Gore, who gets underneath and crushes! Now Kody has a good grip and pushes Frank right onto the edge of the pit! Then he lets go and Frank falls in, and Kody drops like a stone after him!
A VERY QUICK MATCH!
Micro-Gore gets the 3rd place in the featherweights, Pillow Torque comes a respectable 4th.
Heat G Semi-Final line-ups:
Storm II v Tempest Evil-est-oution
Killotine: Evo v Super Gore Evo
Ive decided to put special events in the final after all, but theyll be heavyweight play-offs.
E.g, in between rounds one and two therell be a four-way melee between the losers of round one and between rounds two and three therell be a match between the losing semi-finalists.
Liam, if thats the case, will you do it for heats A to F, which have already gone by?
