typhoon: i also offer a team up to steve-ospin up and just trash everything thats remotly tornado-ish, and if the frame happens to get in my way, heck just smash it off :P if this fails then (hopefully steve teams up with me) let T.W go in and grab him, il open the pit and steve can push him down, if he dosent team up with me.....just spin and hit things :P
jack
Ho snap, that's my first tournament win in a long while. Yay to everybody.
ALL-STARS
ELIMINATORS
1. Firestorm 5 VS Macduff the 4th VS X-Terminator
I see X-Terminator being X-terminated fairly early on.
2. Tornado VS TRAFFIC WARDEN VS Typhoon 2
Typhoon is just the right shape for a bot like Traffic Warden. Scoop it, clamp it, pit it. :P
damn, ah well revert to the tactic of spinning and hitting, or bribe steve with teacakes to go easy on me??? :P
Steve, how about we both put in work? I'll use the anti-Razer cage to ram him into your clamp, while you clamp and pit him.
Welcome to the All Stars Championships! Six robots will fight to become the best of the best!
BATTLE ONE
From Durham, in Durham, Firestorm V!
They came third in the main series. A low wedge with a powerful flipper that has thrown countless robots out of the arena. It only has 2WD though, and could be pushed around easily.
From Toronto, in Canada, Macduff the 4th!
The reigning champions! Can they become the All Stars Champion as well? They have interchangable weapons and 6WD, which should make them unstoppable. The wheels are exposed, though.
From Hereford, in Herefordshire, X-Terminator!
They reached the heat final in the main series. The weapon is a destructive spinning disc. It's well armoured, but it has no self-righting mechanism.
Roboteers, stand by!
B1: Firestorm V, Macduff the 4th
B2: X-Terminator
House Robots: Sir Killalot and Dead Metal
3-2-1: Activate!
This is going to be mayhem, I can tell you! Macduff the 4th has the flipper for this fight, so we'll see what it can do. Firestorm V heads straight for X-Terminator, who has the spinning disc up to full speed. Macduff the 4th CRASHES into the side of them and FLIPS! X-Terminator on its side! They self-right. Firestorm V tries to push Macduff the 4th away, but the champion swings around and FLIPS them up, but not over! Firestorm V backs away as X-Terminator comes in to face Macduff the 4th again. They met in the heat final last time, and X-Terminator wants revenge! Macduff the 4th slips around the side and flips X-Terminator over again! X-Terminator self-rights, but Firestorm V comes in and flips them onto their top! Ha ha! The disc of X-Terminator drags it along into the angle grinder. They won't go far now, I think. That has always been a weakness for X-Terminator in Robot Wars, the high ground clearance. And now, Marlon Prichard and Martijn Benschop can only watch as Firestorm V flips them again! Will X-Terminator go out of the arena? I don't think so. They never really stood a chance in this fight. Back on its top again, X-Terminator. They're going nowhere. In comes Refbot to count them out.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Sir Killalot comes in and grabs hold of X-Terminator. Firestorm V meanwhile, flips Macduff the 4th over! Macduff the 4th hits the pit release and OH! Firestorm V drove into the pit! That doesn't matter. X-Terminator is on the drop zone! What is it today? It's a fridge!
3-2-1!
Down it comes and it SMASHES onto X-Terminator! What a shame for them. Dead Metal comes in and pushes them towards the pit! Down it goes, on top of Firestorm V! A great fight, but X-Terminator progess no further here.
Cease!
What a flipper frenzy!
Firestorm V and Macduff the 4th go through!
Hope you liked it. Sorry if it was short
'Twas good, none too short at all considering the match itself, lol
BATTLE TWO
From Glasgow, in Scotland, Traffic Warden!
They've won the Annihilator. Can they win the All Stars Championships? It's an odd box shaped robot with two clamps at the front. It's well armoured, but has a high ground clearance.
From Huntingdon, in Cambridgeshire, Tornado!
Runners up this series, former champions of Robot Wars. They have interchangable weapons. For this fight, they'll be using the anti crusher frame with spinning disc. It is unreliable, though.
From Edinburgh, in Scotland, Typhoon II!
Former champions also, but they came fourth this series. It has a destructive spinning shell with four cutting blades. But if the shell is stopped, it can be flipped easily and has no self-righting mechanism.
Roboteers, stand by!
B1: Traffic Warden, Tornado
B2: Typhoon II
House Robots: Sir Killalot and Mr Psycho
3-2-1: Activate!
Typhoon II and Tornado spin up to full speed. Traffic Warden goes straight for Tornado though and as they come together, the disc makes contact with Traffic Warden and the sparks fly! Traffic Warden pushes Tornado into the angle grinder, but they escape! Typhoon II seems to be staying out of the way here, only to be shoved by Tornado! The sparks fly once again as their weapons collide. Tornado pushes Typhoon II towards the CPZ! The anti crusher frame has done a good job of protecting it so far, Tornado. Typhoon II gets away as Sir Killalot comes in and grabs hold of Tornado's frame! Oh dear! Typhoon II isn't spinning, and Traffic Warden takes advantage, shoving the former champion into the pit release button. But the main worry here is Tornado, who is being pulled by Sir Killalot towards the pit! Sir Killalot shouldn't do that! Refbot, go in and sort it out! Sir Killalot lets Tornado go anyway, but how much damage did Tornado take? The frame looks twisted. Typhoon II isn't spinning, and neither is the disc on Tornado. They come together again and Tornado pushes Typhoon II towards the flame pit. The former champions, with Gary Cairns and Jack Orr have a real fight on to regain their status here! Typhoon II is away from the flame pit, only to be pushed by Traffic Warden. Towards the pit! OH! Typhoon II just avoided it, but Traffic Warden is on the edge! JUST escaping! Tornado comes in to push Typhoon II once again and OOH! This is so close, as Typhoon was nearly in the pit again and Tornado, what has Tornado done!? They've driven over the pit! Traffic Warden smashes into the back of them but Tornado won't go down. It won't go down because the frame is keeping them from going in! Tornado is hanging on the edge here! The judges look on. I don't think Tornado is out, but Mr Psycho comes in. He brings his hammer down and OOH! Ha ha. Tornado still won't go in! The last ten seconds count down. Refbot can't count Tornado out because there isn't enough time, but this hasn't happened before in Robot Wars! The judges will have to decided. What a fight!
Cease!
Controversy in the warzone. Tornado was hanging over the pit, but the frame stopped them from going in. The judges have decided, that Tornado was not in the pit, but is was immobolised for more than 30 seconds! So Tornado goes out and Traffic Warden and Typhoon II go through!
This is the lineup for Round Two:
Macduff the 4th VS Typhoon II
Firestorm V VS Traffic Warden
See you then, but first, a note
This battle was very controversial, and I'm not too sure of it myself. If, in Razer VS Tornado (S6 Final), Razer had left Tornado over the pit, would Tornado have been in the pit? (There wouldn't have been enough time to count it out or deem it immobile). Feel free to rant and rave about it as much as you like. It's been a stressful halfterm, I'm afraid
There's already been enough talk about it, just like there has about the S7 Grand Final. No more needs to be said really.
Macduff the 4th vs. Typhoon 2
Scoop set-up. Let's see him tear through that. Get him down the pit, and try as hard as I can.
Firestorm V vs. Traffic Warden
Firestorm's shape may be too low for Traffic Warden to grab properly. A pitting of Steve, perhaps?
I thought Refbot had to count a robot out for it to be declared immobile...
...how would that have effected the match? :POriginally Posted by corsair_lightning
