Eye Of The Robot - Series 5

**kodster** · 18th May 2008, 20:23

Urgh...whatever. Heres some tactics and predictions for old times sake.

Heat 1
Intriguing (1) vs. Q.E.2 vs. Paralyzation

w00t, go me, Im the champ.

Anyway...

Three axes...brilliant.

Take out Paralyzation, he seems the weakest. Yeah Joey, lets get him.

Leprosy Infection (17) vs. Sonic Boom vs. Chaos 2

Id say Chaos 2 could surprise us and flip Sonic Boom OOTA...

Winner: Me...oh wait...um...QE2

Heat 2
Ramthrax 2 (3) vs. Monolith vs. Crimson Thunder

Monoliths armour wont help it here...Monolith out.

Gabriel II (19) vs. Requiem vs. Drum Boy

Drum Boy out.

Winner: Probably Ramthrax, though Gabriel has a lovely chance too.

Heat 3
Kali (5) vs. Supreme Glory Omega vs. Iron Awe 5

Iron Awe is currently one of the best flippers in Roaming Robots, and shouldnt be underestimated, not even in vapourbot competitions. Anyway, go for either, not fussy who I attack, flip them over the fence, the Hardox armour should hold up reasonably well.

Orka MK.4 (21) vs. Roveress vs. Werewolf

Orka MK4 and Werewolf through.

Winner: Kali or Orka

Heat 4
Killotine: EVO (7) vs. Beta-Rex vs. Cyrillium Mach 3

The crap called Cyrillium to bite it here.

Cyclone Force 3 (23) vs. Kracko vs. Isolation

Scrapped earlier tactics and agreeing to a team-up with Joey. Two very destructive spinners should shock Cyclone Force to death no matter how much shockproofing or armour hes got. :P

Winner: Cyclone Force or Killotine

Heat 5
Big Nipper (9) vs. TVW vs. ISDSFA

TVW out.

Shrederator (25) vs. Lethal Injection vs. Typhoon 2

Goodbye Lethal Injection.

Winner: ISDSFA or Shrederator. Big Nipper IMO wont cut it here.

Heat 6
Sithis (11) vs. Weapon Synergy vs. Armory

Armoury out.

Panic Attack (27) vs. Axeon 3.0 vs. Nidhogg

Panic Attack is a goner, sorry.

Winner: Nidhogg, Axeon, or Sithis.

Heat 7
PsycloniZer (13) vs. Apocalypse vs. Side Swipe

Side Swipe out.

Seung Mina VI (29) vs. Sakura vs. Pure Evil: ROTD

Box rush the hell out of Sakura. Fairly confident that my armour can stand up to it. If that doesnt work, push Pure Evil into Sakura and watch them die.

Winner: PsycloniZer...or me.

Heat 8
Turbo Tails (15) vs. Ripper Evo vs. LockJaw

LockJaw out.

SOR X (31) vs. Darkestar vs. Tornado

Seeya, Tornado.

Winner: SoR X, for sure.

Heat 9
Achilles (16) vs. Corkscrew 2 vs. Collateral Damage

Bye Corkscrew.

Walk Donâ‚¬â„¢t Run 3 (32) vs. Tempest Evil-est-ution vs. Metal Sonic Spin Dash

WDR out.

Winner: As good as Achilles is, I think Tempest can beat it.

Heat 10
YACATR (14) vs. Mega Masher 2 vs. Firestorm V

Mega Masher out.

Black Death 2 (30) vs. Gemini vs. Warhead

Gemini to be obliterated.

Winner: Maybe Firestorm...

Heat 11
Cat With Wheels (12) vs. Tira IV vs. Minesweeper

Yeah right, Mark, sure. :P
Destroy Minesweeper...moving on.

Black Panther (2 vs. Turbo Shredder vs. Masamune

Uhm...pass.

Winner: Dunno.

Heat 12
Wedginator Devilution (10) vs. Pussycat vs. Hatchet: Evo

Proposing a team-up with Liam to take out the cat.

Shouldnt be hard.

Axes Of Evil (26) vs. The May Tracks Has You vs. Haardvark

...

Winner: I stand a fair chance, but May Tracks looks good too.

Heat 13
Tengu VII ( vs. Manic Monsoon vs. Revenge Of Death Wish

Tengu VII could go out if Manic Mansoon goes after him...

Whirligig 4.5 (24) vs. Obliteration vs. The 6isc

Holy hell.

Obliteration to get caught in the middle and obliterated.

Winner: ...Ill pass on this one.

Heat 14
Die-Ceratops ReInvertus (6) vs. No Objections vs. Roadblock

...seriously?

Wedgaâ‚¬â„¢s Revenge (22) vs. Bodyhammer vs. E Clawdius Unum

...serriously?

Winner: ...seriously?

Heat 15
Storm 2 (4) vs. The Creature vs. Surgeon General

...team up with Storm and destroy The Creature. Moving on...

Wedge Devolution (20) vs. Humdrum vs. Dreadnaut

Pass.

Winner: Wedge Devo probably.

Heat 16
Phoenix Down (2) vs. Death Threat 0.2 vs. Squirmin Vermin

The Vermin out.

Killobite 5.0 (1 vs. Razer vs. TRACIE

Clamp TRACIE and shove it down the pit. Razer can help out if he wants.

Winner: Probably Phoenix Down.

Please Paul, no hypos, no matter what circumstances. And Ill be happy.

**kodster** · 18th May 2008, 20:26

Well my fights havent been switched around, so my tactics are the same.

**joey_picus** · 18th May 2008, 20:33

No changes in my lineup either by the looks of it.

**corsair_lightning** · 18th May 2008, 20:45

Revised tactics:
Orka Mk. 4 vs ROVERESS vs Werewolf

Team up with Liam, and let the 2 dogs destroy the Orka. Press the pit release button, get in on those sides, clamp down and hold him, and pit him. Easy as that!

Killotine: Evo vs Beta-Rex vs CYRILIUM MACH 3

Ill ask to team up with Liam again, and get my revenge on Killotine. Get underneath him, use the lifting arm to get him over, and use the axe to fill his baseplate with holes!!

Big Nipper (9) vs TVW vs Darkestar

Alex, how about we team up against Big Nipper and annihilate the seed? You shove him around, and I use my axe to rip him to shreds, with you helping, of course.

Sithis (11) vs Weapon Synergy vs ARMORY

Ill use my disc to shred each part of Weapon Synergy to pieces, one at a time. Maybe team up with Sithis the seeded, and finish The cluster off.

PsycloniZer (13) vs Apocalypse vs SIDE SWIPE

AJ has the more destructive bot. I would like to team up with AJ, and we can take out Apocalypse with near-no problem. Shove it into AJs machine, and let the shards of rubble fly!

SOR X (31) vs ISDSFA vs TORNADO

Ill use the vertical disc for this fight.

Frank, would you like to team up? Together, we have a good chance of sending AJs elite machine BTTDB (Back to the Drawing Board).

Achilles (16) vs CORKSCREW 2 vs Collateral Damage

Alex, would you mind if we teamed up again? You could use your flipper to consistantly flip Liam, then I move in, and shred it to pieces!!

Cat With Wheels (12) vs Tira IV vs MINESWEEPER

Kody underestimates Minesweeper. A 6mm Hardox armoured bot will easily be protected from Tiras disc, while the 10mm Hardox scoops will not be scratched. Shove Tira, disc-first, into the wall. The thing will blow up like a pack of explosives. Press the pit release button, and shove Tira IV down the pit.

**joey_picus** · 18th May 2008, 20:49

(insert obligatary comment here about Hardox being no good if its not attached right and Paul has the right to assume that your armour is attached by cable ties and soggy biscuit residue, seeing as you didnt say anything in the stats)

**kodster** · 18th May 2008, 20:49

Mark, you hardly know anything yourself about vapourbots, so youd do well not to be confident. :P

*agrees with Joey*

18th May 2008, 20:54

Tactics and Predictions

HEAT 1
Intriguing (1) vs. Q.E.2 vs. Paralyzation

Q.E.2 needs to team up with the seed. If Kody says no Samuel will trash that titanium armour.

Leprosy Infection (17) vs. Sonic Boom vs. Chaos 2

Chaos 2 out via K.O

HEAT 2
Ramthrax 2 (3) vs. Monolith vs. Crimson Thunder

Kali (5) vs. Supreme Glory Omega vs. Iron Awe 5

Iron Awe 5 out via OOTA

Orka MK.4 (21) vs. Roveress vs. Werewolf

Chris, wanna team up? If not, go for Roveress anyway. The srimech looks slow, so push her around and keep lifting her over and over. I have plenty of power in my lifter so I wont run out.

HEAT 4
Killotine: EVO (7) vs. Beta-Rex vs. Cyrillium Mach 3

Wanna team up, Steve? Ill go for Cyrilium and just throw it OOTA.

Cyclone Force 3 (23) vs. Kracko vs. Isolation

Fancy a team-up AJ? If not, try and use Nidhoggs narrow front to my advantage by dodging his forks and using mine to pit him.

HEAT 7
PsycloniZer (13) vs. Apocalypse vs. Side Swipe

Go for that stupid 4-wheel drive thwackbot. Its not a good pusher either, so Ive got every advantage over it.

Hmmmmm... A tough one, Id say Sakura out via OOTA, but Pure Evil could go the same way, but Mina is definately through.

Grab hold of Corkscrew 2 and pit it.

SOR X (31) vs. Darkestar vs. Tornado

Tornado out via pitting.

HEAT 9
Achilles (16) vs. Ripper EVO vs. Collateral Damage

Team up Alex? If not, go for Ripper EVO anyway and try to pit it, but I could be out here anyway

The seed out via KO.
