ACTIVATE!

Roaring to life are the makings of a true flipper frenzy, and it's comprised of these two mechanical maelstroms! ( ) Off to the faster start is Wedge Devolution, but his aim is the same as his enemy-in-arms; get under the sides! However, it's proving rather tricky for either to break through with this, as each one can turn directly on a dime! And evidently it comes down to control, as Ge5orce slips up a bit! The 10th seed pounces, but Ge5orce is no slouch and backs out of trouble. Wedge Devolution turns immediately though, and we're back to the first square on the board. Now they circle each other again, like two frenzied great white sharks in the Atlantic...only it's each other their teeth will carve into! Wedge Devolution stops suddenly, and tries to take advantage of its seemingly greater control. Ge5orce turns straight into the front corner, and what results is Ge5orce getting straight under the side skirt from an odd angle, but Wedge Devolution sneaks under one of the wheelpods at the same time! Just as Ge5orce gets one of the corners of its flipper under the actual side of the 10th seed, both of them activate their flippers simultaneously!

The end occurrence is Wedge Devolution tipped high up onto one of its rear corners, then crashing onto its side semisphere and unbalancing onto its back, while Ge5orce does a perfect 360! 9.8 for the landing, Mr. J! Wedge Devolution has to self-right to keep fighting, and the landing points are...1.8! You've just righted yourself onto the flipper of Ge5orce! And the 4th seed is away to the wall...Steve fires the flipper of Wedge Devolution in a grand panic, hoping to upset Mr. J's travel plans, but this only serves to pop Wedge Devolution up and then back onto Ge5orce's flipper. And speaking of which, it activates just as quickly, catapulting the 10th seed up...and down and out!!! It's over! Wedge Devolution is out of the trophy running, and Ge5orce is through...through to the first Final Battle Team ??? have ever been in, in this series! But Andy is nowhere near content, and now slides over to the CPZ where Sgt. Bash is! The blazing Sergeant is trying to get under the flipper, but you've little chance with these low-to-the-ground wedges, Bash! Little chance! And Ge5orce chances a flip and over goes Bash! Noticing the advancing Damocles, Andy gets under and around Bash, now with the house robot pointed at his comrade! But the house robots are spared, because...

CEASE!

Steven's creation undergoes a disastrous Wedge of a Devolution, but don't fret - the 3rd place playoffs are in sight!
GE5ORCE (4) ADVANCES TO THE FINAL BATTLE!!!
