Final Battle
Ladies and Gentlemen...
Give a thunderous round of applause for the number #1 ranked robot in the world of Robot SMASH!! , it may be a simple wedge but hell has it been successful, the one, the only Wedge Devolution!
And put your hands together for the flipper-killing robot from hell, it€™s the invertible ring spinner from hell, the only newcomer to reach the grand final, give it up for PsycloniZer!
To reach this stage Wedge Devolution (1) has defeated:
- The Curse
- Splinter
- Sheer Heart Attack 2
- Orka MK.4
- Supreme Glory Omega (3)
- Back to Rock III
PsycloniZer on the other hand has seen off:
- Baldur Gamma
- Bio-Hazard
- Gabriel II (14)
- Flick of the Wrist (12)
- Black Panther
- Nidhogg (2)
Roboteers, standby!
Booth 1: Steven McGregor
Booth 2: Andrew Jackson

SMASH!!
Almost immediately PsycloniZer€™s spinning ring starts to rotate simultaneously with the two wheel drive as the MN champion heads across the arena away from the reigning champion, who€™s four wheel LEM-powered drive guns it after the invertible flipper-killer, getting the bent upwards at the bottom flipper plate under PsycloniZer before firing it up into the air with a snort of co2 from the flipper! PsycloniZer however is now spun up and lands sideways on top of Wedge Devolution, whacking a hefty dent in the top armour as it rolls down and around to the rear of the number #1 seed! But now the champion reverses into PsycloniZer to stop Andy getting the ring back up to speed and all of a sudden the hammer/spinner is jammed against the arena wall by the far more powerful pusher, Wedge Devolution. But the 30 second pinning rule comes into play for the god-knows-what-time in this tournament and Wedge Devolution is forced to release PsycloniZer, who guns it across the arena and uses the LEM-200 to spin that powerful weaponry up to speed again before rushing in on the attack of Wedge Devo, only for Steven to dodge out of the way last minute to allow PsycloniZer to go crashing into the arena wall! CRASH! PsycloniZer is flung away and Andy won€™t have gained any control points for that, and immediately Wedge Devolution is on the attack, getting straight underneath and ramming the C&BT: Mini-Tournament of Death winner for the full length of the arena before firing the rear hinged flipper powered by two low pressure rams, which sends it flying high up into the air before it comes crashing down onto the rails of the arena before toppling back in! Andy spins up the ring again, buying time by dodging another box-rush attempt from the less manoeuvrable Wedge Devolution and slams into the rear of Steven€™s famous machine, putting another dent in the hardox armour and sending it spinning onto the killsaws! BZZT! Wedge is toppled over, but quickly self-rights and resets the flipper before PsycloniZer can attack again, although this has given time for Andy to get the ring back up to speed and straight away he€™s running back in and slamming into the front of the reigning champion, letting it spin madly into the arena side wall with another loud CRASH! And despite another dent in the side Wedge Devolution seems unharmed, ramming in on another onslaught and breaching the ground clearance of PsycloniZer to carry Andy across the arena before firing flipper rams and sending it into a high somersault above the arena barriers, but not near enough to go right over them and onto the camera tracks! Andy breathes a sigh of relief and spins up the ring again, driving back across the arena at top speed to meet the oncoming Wedge Devolution! CRASH! The two collide head on, and as both robots were driving at top speed the result is catastrophic as both machines fly across the arena, with Wedge Devolution being spun around like a top while the two wheel drive PsycloniZer rolls onto its side before landing back on its wheels to start spinning up the ring again. However Wedge Devolution is venting gas- it seems the co2 supply has been ruptured and so the flipper is gone, leaving the defending champion weapon-less! PsycloniZer on the other hand seems to have taken little to no damage from the force of its own hit and now comes back on the attack, slamming into the virtually helpless Wedge Devolution again now to send it spinning onto the killsaws! BZZT! Wedge is spun around and thrown away, but now runs in on a box-rush attempt at PsycloniZer, managing to get the flipper plate underneath the ground clearance of PsycloniZer for Steven to ram the newcomer across the arena and into the arena wall! And it doesn€™t end there, as PsycloniZer tries to get away but is once again scooped up on the wedge of its seeded opponent as Wedge Devolution now races across the arena with that powerful drive, equal to that of Storm II! And with a SLAM Wedge Devolution powers into the pit release button, knocking PsycloniZer away and setting off the pit release siren! The chasm descends and now the vapourboteers have another obstacle to think about, but to Wedge Devolution it€™s a beacon of hope and Steven clearly intends to use it as he chases PsycloniZer again, ramming it across the arena and onto the killsaws! BZZT! PsycloniZer is tossed over onto the top of Wedge Devo, who tries to ram Andy down the pit with a lucky shot, but PsycloniZer gets the mags going and drives over the wedged top of Wedge Devolution, quickly getting the spinning ring up to speed again in order to reverse back into the rear armour of Wedge Devolution, tearing the back hardox armour panel clean off! Steven is worried by that, as now the internal workings of Wedge Devolution are exposed, but the champion isn€™t going to let PsycloniZer take advantage of that and heads away from the powerful ring spinner before turning to face its oncoming assault and attempting to make the most of it by ploughing head on into the insane spinner€™s path! CRASH! Again both robots are left reeling from the blow, but again Wedge Devolution is left worse off as the side panel is knocked loose, but not quite off meaning it drags on the ground now, meaning Steven will find it very hard to turn in that direction! And the LEMs give power to those four wheels again now to get Wedge Devolution back on the attack, but this time PsycloniZer easily eludes the number #1 seed and spins up again, slamming into the loose side panel and sending it flying away across the arena to land in the pit! And so now the champion has internals exposed from the side and rear, although the mobility problem is now sorted thanks to PsycloniZer, which drives away to spin up again now, but is box-rushed by Wedge Devolution who pins it against the arena wall, gunning the lynch motors to hold the Mechanical Noise champion in place while the clock ticks down! But again the 30 second rule forces Steven to release PsycloniZer, who backs away a bit across the arena and spins up the ring with those three hammers of death again before it backs away for a good run up and comes crashing in on the attack, slamming into the wedge-shaped machine at full speed in both ring and drive! CRASH! And unfortunately for Steven this dangerously powerful attack hit the rear of Wedge Devo, tearing out the left drive motor, which now sits on the arena floor, unconnected to both the robot it came from and the batteries which power it. But Wedge Devolution still has one motor and so by this season€™s rules it is still on the fight, although the match has now run out of time and the decision will go the judges!
CEASE!
Judge€™s Decision:
Damage:
Wedge Devolution- 1 x 4= 4
PsycloniZer- 9 x 4= 36
Aggression:
Wedge Devolution- 9 x 3= 27
PsycloniZer- 7 x 3= 21
Control:
Wedge Devolution- 9 x 2= 18
PsycloniZer- 5 x 2= 10
Dominance:
Wedge Devolution- 6 x 1= 6
PsycloniZer- 8 x 1= 8
Overall:
Wedge Devolution- 4 + 27 + 18 + 6= 56pts
PsycloniZer- 36 + 21 + 10 + 8= 75pts
+2>And by a margin of 19 points, the champion of the 96 robot Robot SMASH!! Series 2: Recharged, Andrew Jackson€™s PSYCLONIZER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing tourney, Liam. I am gutted I didnt enter improved versions of my RS!!1 entries. Although 3 seeds arent to be upset about!
Congratulations to AJ and Steve and Joey and Martijn for making the final 4.
Robot Smash 3 will be mine!! Mwahahahaha!!
it was very very good all the way through Liam, and Andy did very well winning his second major with the Psyclothingy line
Well, second place is nothing to be sniffed at. Bravo to Andy and bravo to Liam for a corking tournament.
Woo!
This was a great tournament, Liam, and the win just put the icing on the cake. So thanks for the win, and for writing such a quality tournament so quickly. Especially towards the end here you have shown us how well you can write battles. I must also thank Joey and Steve for giving me a run for my money in the last couple of battles! It seems PsycloniZer is making quite a name for itself!
Cheers everyone once again for a great tournament!
