Only 7 machines have returned from last year, so there are only 4 seeds, 1 per heat. The only way those are going to change depends on what realie Chris enters, which may allow me to bulk the tournament back up to 8 seeds, if Chris enters Behemoth

[swimm3r]

Right well Chris has run out of time by over 12 hours, so Anthony is in.

Well, I am going away tommorrow so don't expect this to start until at least a week, but there's a small chance I'll have limited internet access and so there may be a chance I can post some battles in the coming week.

Tactics/Predictions ahoy!!

[kodster]

It's heeeeeeeeeere.

Heat A
N^3 vs. Jack in the Box vs. CrOokEd vs. Lethal Weapon

Pretty sure ol' Niddy'll swing through. Jack in the Box to possibly join it.

Seung Mina V [1] vs. PsycloniZer vs. Liar 2 vs. Neo-Mecha

AL HEIL TEH CHMP!!!111



On a more serious note, I'd like to offer a team-up with PsycloniZer. Neo-Mecha's disc can be beaten by Psy's hammers and then after that we can double-team Liar. How'zat sound, AJ?

Heat B
Another Night at the Bar [3] vs. Iron Awe 2.1 vs. The Final Cut vs. Pick-Axe-of-Doom

*bleep*in hell. Well, since Bar's so damn unstable that it'll probably KO itself upon contact (according to Joey anyway :P), I'll attack Pick-Axe-of-Doom first. The polycarb should be really vulernable to my axe, although I could flip it over and then axe it. After that, see what's become of Martijn's bot and attack it if it's still alive, lol.

Next Stop, Jupiter vs. Megabyte vs. Mornington Crescent vs. Still Hurting

Megabyte and Still Hurting, I think, to go through.

Heat C
4x4 vs. 13 Black vs. Envy vs. Typhoon 2

Realie alert!!! Envy and Typhoon ftw?

Gravity vs. Curse of Dread vs. Shovearound 2 1/2 vs. Storm II [4]

Offer Tony a team-up, and regardless or not whether he takes me up on it (although it would be nice if he did, lmao), attack Gravity first. Shovearound should be able to dispose of Storm II easily by simply flipping it and then ramming it, so I won't attack Storm II unless Tony's having trouble. Just smack into Gravity's sides and let the armour fly. Invertible for the worst case too.

Heat D
Gabriel IV vs. Novastorm vs. Walk Don't Run 5 vs. E Clawdius Unum [2]

Thank god I'm not in this fight. I think Joey and Steve can easily outdo their opponents here.

Flick of the Wrist vs. Killobite Hex vs. Wedga Triton vs. 259

Go after Flick of the Wrist, and chew up its tires, de-wheel him, and leave him for dead. Once that's over with, try and lift over 259.

Looks very promising, Liam.

Lethal Weapon's tactics: Kill stuff
Megabyte's tactics: Kill stuff
Novastorm's tactics: Pit stuff ASAP
Shovearound 2's tactics: Accept Kody's team offer. and pit stuff.

N³ vs. Jack in the Box vs. CrOokEd vs. Lethal Weapon

My primary target here is Lethal Weapon - straight from the off I shall accelerate straight to maximum speed and try to use my precise control and other associated gibberish to get him around the sides and rear, before he gets fully spun up. Once there, use my forks to get under the skirts to the main body, lift, crush into it, and then take to the pit for swift elimination by releasing it only once I get there.
In the event that Lethal Weapon evades my grasp before it gets fully spun up and I am not in a position to get at its rear end, I shall evade it and go for CrOokEd instead, get under it at the sides or rear, crush and lift it, and see if I can use it as a 'shield' when dealing with Lethal Weapon and bounce it around from its own recoil. That should take care of one or both of them :P
Jack-in-the-box I will only attack if doing so would guarantee a really easy win and the other options are much stronger at that time, as I'm teaming up with Mr. Steven Excellent himself on this one

Next Stop, Jupiter vs. Megabyte vs. Mornington Crescent vs. Still Hurting

Um...I'm a vertical spinner in amongst many horizontals. Not an ideal situation at all, but unless anyone wants to team up I will be attacking indiscriminately, using the flipper and spikes to fend people off until I have the disc spun up and then go after whoever's nearest and smash them. Rinse, repeat, try not to break down.

4x4 vs. 13 Black vs. Envy vs. Typhoon 2

Feed the cloth to 13 Black in the hope that it may clog up one of the discs, then go for Envy or 13 Black and try to clamp it and feed whichever one it is to Typhoon 2 (or if I somehow grab Envy, use it to knock Typhoon away again and again until it stops). If that somehow works, go around clamping robots and driving them into Typhoon or the pit.
I'm open to teamups here, although I doubt anyone will want to

Gabriel IV vs. Novastorm vs. Walk Don't Run 5 vs. E Clawdius Unum [2]

Myself and Mr. McGregor are teaming up again here Go for Novastorm, Clawdius has the better armour and can take out WDR easier by bending the shuffling feet with the crusher I think. Generally flip Novastorm over and over until such a time as it exits the arena, be it over the fence or down the pit, and then if WDR is still walking, flip it down the pit or out as well.

Best of luck to everyone, here's to a w00ty tourney with Liam's w00ty battles
