Art of Seduction: A simple enough first entrant for Ollister and one that isn't bad looking. Combat wise, I think its a bit too narrow and could be boned against flippers unless WBP is a thing.
Attack Squadron: That is a ****ing beautiful robot. Sorta like what happens when Panic Attack joins the navy or something. Don't think it's gonna do well, but this can surprise.
Blood Moon: The only IRL belt holder is still looking to be as effective as ever, though the flails may sort of impede spinning speed. Looks-wise, its a bit odd because of gaps in the robot, but its still a fine robot. Could go all the way, this.
Bobby Fn Beale: F-n A, it looks pretty damn good-looking, if a bit janky in places. Not sure how well it'll do, but axes aren't the best robot type of the lot.
Caspian Cobra: AFAIK, this is a redditbots user. It's decent, if a bit bland. Reach seems to be an issue for this, but those teeth are about as good as small Typhoons. Might be a contender.
Catastrophe: A spinner that uses Killalot Claws? Interesting choice, but it may not be able to deal massive damage in short time. Simple, but effective. I like.
Chadwick: This previous RoboGames competitor looks even deadlier than before and one that may be able to take this. Saws are able to deal enormous damage, but its been shown to be fragile in the past.
Chaos 3: Or Chaos 2^2, rather. Both look pretty neat, and I think this could do decently. It'd better watch out for some of the big hitters, though.
Christian Death: Sporting a rather odd weapon setup like RG competitor THE WORLD, this may have some good going for it. Chassis may look to be fragile, though.
Copper Chopper: Looking like what'd happen if Hazard face****ed a police car, this robot looks good and may also be able to do well. I think its problems may be ground clearance and speed, though.
Crash Test Dummy: Bit sad we aren't seeing any of the other modular configs, but it still looks awesome. Combat may be an issue for this unless its able to get an OotA, which I'm doubting.
Croeca Mors II: A robot coming from Orc's Wars, Croeca Mors may be able to do decently, but speed was a problem for it IIRC.
Dagger: If nothing else, I guess its a decent-ish replica. Looks about as potent as the real thing, too. :V
Duck King: Looking at this robot, it looks to have the makings of greatness, especially seeing as it has parallels to that of Kyros' Power. Might be able to do well if it has extreme speed.
Forgery: I intended to enter with Phosphorous but later pulled out with this. This is the one I have least faith in, but hey, I got a flamer in there! That counts for something, I think.
Frosty: I'm struggling to think of what this reminds me of, but djent's bot looks solid enough. Maybe it'll be able to get some big hits with those 2 mini-on discs.
Gold Digger: This... isn't the best robot of the lot. It seems to be a bit mediocre in everything, which is a problem against other robots.
Grab-O-Saw: ...where's the saw? Regardless, this chomper looks pretty damn awesome, though its damage potential could be a problem.
Grindelwald: Al's IRL bot looks a bit like a budget M2, to be honest. Looking at it here, as well, it may have trouble due to its narrow width, which could get it cocked by big spinners.
Hollowing Out Souls: Another evolution of a RG competitor, HOS has the chance to redeem its older, bulkier brother with its speed and weaponry.Weapon setup's a bot odd, though.
Hornbob and Hornblue: This always finds its way into everything, doesn't it? Not that I am complaining, though, seeing as it looks decent and has proven to be powerful in past tournaments. Lets see how they fare against bigger robots.
Jeff Stelling's Cat: The whole thing looks like a DSL 2.1 build. Seems to be fast, and could be annoying to get ahold of. Looks fragile as all hell, though.
Jimmy Saville's Barmy Army: Oh, for ****'s sakes...
John, the Chad Robbut: Oh, christ, no. Its gonna breeze though the tournament unless those wedges snap off.
Krieg 2: Will 2018 be his year? Probably not, sadly. However, its not a bad-looking robot, though some of the modular robots could do with a cleaner look to them.
Kuro Hakai 2: Always fun to see a Tento-like robot, but that trapper looks so ridiculously small it'd be lucky to even get one of the clusterbot MW's. Looks a bit messy, as well. As it turns out, Kuro Hakai is actually an Undercutter and not a Tento-like machine. With that in mind, its a baffling design that doesn't even seem to have much range. Could surprise, though. Maybe I've also got this wrong again.
Lagoon: This robot reeks of DSL 2.1 building as well. Not bad by any means, but its bad wedging ability will be a problem for something that requires the wedge to be used.
Leviathan: A decent first attempt that leaves me wondering where the hell all the weight went. Might not be able to do well due to the lack of weight put into it.
Maniac 2.0: xanosz' Sword of Glory robot looks to be far more menacing than ever before. This could take the trophy easily, even though it looks like it was assembled in a scrapyard.
Mass Accelerator 2: Speaking of Sword of Glory, here's this devastating VS! Without the MOE-tor, though, I think this may be neutered easily, though it'll definitely put up a fight.
Mister Hyde: Pretty cool-looking. Also love the Orc's Wars sticker slapped onto it as well. It looks combat-effective as well, which is something I especially love.
Ninth Circle: Simple as they come, this FBS could have the potential to do some decent damage. Trouble is, all those teeth are begging to go full-on meth mouth.
Outbreak: Arcane always finds a way to make stuff ****ing beautiful, and here is no different. Looks like it could do some decent damage, though it seems fragile.
Purple Nurple: This... looks a total mess. Its probably viable in combat, but its design ethos is so mystifying.
Quack Addict: Oh, yeah, Qo-- is back again! Quack Addict looks great and may have the potential to turn heads (literally) with its double-headed spinner.
Raiden: 4-bar launchers have always been a rarity in RA2, and they either have the potential to launch others or fail badly. Raiden may be able to do the former because of its powerful weaponry.
Raptor: A robot with potential killed by the spikestrips being the wrong way somehow. Looks like its a bit of a mess as well.
Robbie Botten: Much as I like the pun, where are the supports? May do decently, though.
Slap Shot V2: The OW Runner-up has a lot to live up to, and I think it can do pretty well. Only problem is that its gotta finish fights fast or it'll be boned.
Smackers 'N' Crash: NGL, this is a pretty awesome flip-replica thingy. May do well as well due to its swarming capabilities, but who knows.
Spynhxiate: This is beautiful, though I don't know why it wasn't desert-coloured. That being said, combat effectiveness may be an issue for this 'bot.
Steel Raptor 3: Oh, ****, it's the RoboGames HW champion. If the past is any indication, this could be one that will storm this tournament easily.
Sweet Crazyness: It's a lazy susan lookalike, but a lazy build it isn't. This is ****ing amazing, but I worry for that juggling flywheel's effectiveness if it can't get under.
Temor: Simple, blunt and to the point; I like it. Might also be as effective, as well.
Thadzingo 3: This could be another one to rip though the tournament provided it can get under (which it definitely will). Its not going to struggle that much in my honest opinion.
The One Eyed Watcher: This ring spinner isn't that bad looking, despite what Toaster is said to believe. Might have trouble due to its confusing weapon setup.
The Tinned Tuna: Holy sh**, now the Orc Wars champion too? Tinned Tuna's weaponry has proven brilliant and it is also nippy enough, but how will it fare here?
Thot Slayers: If 1 Thot Slayer was anything to go by, this proved pretty good. I think 2 could do even better here in my opinion. Skin's still not good, though.
Toxin: It looks like what happens if Red Devil got wheels and a purple coat of paint and I absolutely love it. Its gonna have trouble against robots that are larger than the jaw arc, though, because thats where its power lies.
Toxin IV: Wait, didn't I already cover this? Anyways, the Cybernetic Colosseum returner wasn't badd by any stretch, but I dont remember it being good, either. Its large trapper may give it an edge, though.
Vespin: Looking like Concussion got spunked on by Sabretooth VI, this nippy lil' drum spinner could have the goods to do well. It'd just better hope it isn't overturned.
Vivid RBY: A swarm-like gimmick is one i've not seen yet, and I think it may prove a blessing. Its gonna be unpredictable, though it'll struggle against some of the more dangerous robots.
Vulkan EVO: The Vulkan line has always proven to be good robots in general, and I don't see Vulkan EVO bucking the trend. Hopefully the Front Hinge Master Race is here to stay.
Will to Reach: I like the use of the Killalot head on this 'bot. This undercutter could do pretty well for itself if its chassis isn't shredded apart in the process.
Wraith: The host is not ****ing around. Looking like a mix of Meshugennah and S3, Wraith has the possibility of doing pretty well.
XenIII: Hoppin's Full-body drum has always done pretty well, and I don't think its gonna be different here. Just better hope that its wheels aren't sniped off.
Zeta: And last but not least, a fine nod to Beta that looks decent enough. Let's hope this can wait for some good hits soon.
