ACTIVATE!

And out comes Monsoon Season being the first to react, charging towards his opponent, guns a'blazin'! Mornington Crescent is quick to avoid it though and scoots out of the way, sending the Monsoon careening almost into the arena wall. However, Steve's not fully spun Mornington Crescent's rings up yet, so...he's in trouble. Monsoon Season turns about swiftly and charges again, and this time just manages to clip the bottom ring of Mornington Crescent. The blow is mediocre in terms of quality, though, but nonetheless it turns Monsoon Season aside a bit and gives Mornington Crescent another chance to spin up. That he does, and is now at full speed...but with Monsoon Season's overall slanted shape, I'm afraid that the top spinning ring is about as useful as Darke Destroyer's chisel-like blades. Daniel turns his machine about again and tries to stick his robot's ramming plate in, but that damned ring spinner of Steve's is just too swift to catch; thus, Monsoon Season ends up completely blowing by Mornington Crescent again in a Welsh blur! The Scotsman moves in to make a blur of his own!

CRASH!!!

It's not so much a blur as it is a bestiaI scarring, but there's absolutely no denying it's a mark of war, and the force of the attack smashes Monsoon Season across the arena and nearly into the arena wall, having a huge rip in its rear panel! The grip of its tracks manages to keep it steady, but so great was the shock of that blow that Monsoon Season is momentarily stunned! Mornington Crescent however has taken some recoil as well as it's sitting near the floor flipper now instead of the middle of the arena, but by the time Monsoon Season's able to get its positioning back, Mornington Crescent's off and spinning again. Furious, Monsoon Season shoots across the arena in a black/green jet of colour, barely avoiding the arena saws, but again Mornington Crescent's superior manoeuvrability and almost equal speed to his opponent's, gets the better of Monsoon Season, which results in Mornington Crescent scooting around the rampage fast as his 4WD can propel him, and Monsoon Season nearly driving into the wall once more! Before Daniel can rectify his mistake, Steve makes a trip to Monsoon Season's other side!

CRASH!!!

Well, you can't break HDPE, but you can certainly scar it up even with a thickness that vast, as Mornington Crescent has just proved! However the force of the blows has again sent BOTH robots flying, Mornington Crescent farther, across the arena, and that's against a slanted side...such power in a 100cm x 20cm package...shocking, innit? Anyway, there's a massive gash down the side of Monsoon Season, to rival that of the one on his rear, but Mornington Crescent isn't able to fully cut through the armour, it being absurdly thick, so Daniel's much in the game still. He directs his robot across the arena, and it zooms over and smacks Mornington Crescent, hard, with the wedge. Steve was unable to get away that time and the resulting blow on Monsoon Season's ramming plate is wholly deflected away, sending the ring spinner flying across the arena in a flash of white! Thirsty for blood, the Welsh flipper pursues. Steve moves to evade again but forgets the arena saws are in the way and accidentally drives right over them...BZZT! Sparks litter the arena. Steve doesn't have time to recollect his wits before 110kg of massive black and green box wedge catapults into his precious ring spinner a second time, driving it fully onto the wedge, and takes it all the way to the arena wall! And hey! Would you look at that, the upper ring of Mornington Crescent is still spinning aimlessly! Just before Monsoon Season reaches the wall, the flipper activates, tossing Mornington Crescent up, up, and...AND IT'S OVER! Mornington Crescent is out of the arena and HEY! Well...it flew out of the arena still spinning its upper ring, which immediately took out the polycarb wall beyond, on contact! You bet your arse that Steve'll be payin' for that later! Oh what an insult to injury! The house bots look on, forlorn. Such a shame, eh?

CEASE!

Mornington Crescent...take a detour, if you please. :O
Monsoon Season advances to Round 3!
