Robot SMASH!! Series 2: Recharged!

[joey_picus]

Heats O and P are missing some robots...Id just type them down randomly if the generator wont work. If Im honest, I dont quite understand what you mean :P

[majinb]

Take a heat that hasnt got one of my bots yet, take a bot from that heat that isnt in heat p yet, and swap my bot and that bot around

do the same for Chris

[majinb]

nice Liam

Ill give my tactics when my heat gets near... and man, is Heat A near

Heat A
Wedge Devolution (1) v Sheer Heart Attack 2 v The Curse
Oddly, I fancy taking the champ out in this 3-way melee, better beat it now than getting beaten by it the the final no? :wink:
Also, Wedge Devo is... a wedge, with sloped sides, and Sheer Heart Attack 2 happens to be made to take out anything sloped, just ram it from the sides, damage those skirts, and watch out for the flipper.
Also, I wouldnt mind pitting The Curse when I get the chance, lol.

Y4 v Splinter v Body Hammer
O, I wish I was in this melee instead of Y4 or Splinter, .

Oh, that was the problem :P Tactics are here:

Macduff The Third vs. Orka Mk. 4 vs. STEALTH
Drive at whichever comes first, and attempt to flip them with my flipper that doesnt quite touch the ground. Basically wait to be killed, unless somebody feels like teaming up on the off chance it might result in a really easy heat final for them. :P
Note: Although it never got the chance, I suspect Stealth may have been able to self right...never really saw enough of it to see how powerful the weapon was. Not that it matters at all

WORCKER vs. Dieceratops ReInvertus vs. QE2
I shall propose a team up with Paul, to take out the green launchpad. One thing he lacks is maneuvrability, which due to my wheel layout I have in spades; I shall therefore flip DC onto Pauls flipper, and hopefully he shall proceed with the OOTA. Failing that, axe DC to death.

Super Gore Evo vs. ISOLATION vs. Darkestar
Great, two robots I do not want to be up against...Kody will hate me, but Id like to beg for mercy from Alex (i.e. team up with Alex) and bounce SGE around with the disc as Darkestar does some sort of rammy-discy thingy.

GABRIEL II vs. Psyclonizer vs. Baldur
I shall avoid Psyclonizer and go for Baldur, which is at a disadvantage because my wheel layout meand he cant really push me or get a grip on me. I shall ram with the front spikes, flip him around a bit and posibly make use of AJ as an arena hazard. (Is Psyclonizer AJs robot? I forget :P)

NO OBJECTIONS vs. Crimson Thunder vs. Rupture.
Care for a team up, Danny? Rupture is the weak link here, I shall lift it or spin, depending on whats happening at the time, and it will die eventually from shock or the JD.

Killobite vs. PARAMAGNETIC LOX BOX vs. E Clawdius Unum
Another heat where Im up against two robots I dont want to be...Omnibot away from opponents, and try and get one or the other down the pit with my large power and traction.

Turbo Tails vs. Gravity vs. PHOENIX DOWN
Im assuming this is Gravity 3 (S7) here, so here goes...
Use a claw (front) and saw (rear) for this. Basically team up with Steve here (if thats okay, Stevo ) and try and grab the sides of Gravity with the claw. Theyre polycarb, so I should get a good grip, and I shall then ram it into Tailss...tails :P Failing that, slash the tyres with the saw.
Avoid the front though. While PD should survive a good flipping, theres OOTAs to worry about.

NIDHOGG vs. Leprosy Infection vs. Under Pressure
Leprosy Infection is my target here, and if Marti wants to team up hes more than welcome Basically grab it anywhere, lift forks to break traction, crunch, and pit. Get those tyres while Im there as well.

Good luck, people

Oh yeah, the specials

FLIPPER FRENZY: (Stealth)
See tactics for first round :P

AXE ATTACK: (QE2)
Flip people over, axe their bellies, then clamp those that remain and pit them.

SPINNER SPECIAL: (Isolation)
Avoid the more dangerous spinners (Tira, Whirligig) and treat them as mobile arena hazards by flipping robots into them - this could kill both parties involved. For the others, smash them with the disc or flip them. ANATB I shall place lower down the priority list because I can see it becoming a rocking chair again :P

CRUSHER CRUNCH-UP: (Nidhogg)
Go around lifting people, clamping them and then pitting them, avoiding the pit at all other times lest I taste my own medicine.

Knyfe doesnt have its name down - the reason why you possibly have a space left in Heat O is becuase Knyfe hasnt been assigned a battle.

Just noting it for you.
