First time leaving my thoughts on BOTM...so here we go! I forgot I commented on one a month or so back...derp.

1. Not a massive fan of the splash, hard to read but the robot looks alright.
2. Weird design. I'm not really sure what else to say. Splash looks alright.
3. The heck is this?! Splash is suiting to the text.
4. Weird but interesting design. Splash suits the theme.
5. Splash is pretty cool but like number 3: the heck is this?!
6. Robot looks alright, I like the hammer. Splash looks alright.

I have no idea who entered what. XD

Seeing that most people had gone with the Stock option, time to make my verdicts:
1. Good frontal protection, good drive and good Weapons. It would be perfect if it sacrificed the pink batteries for more weaponry or the Builder tried to fit in a SuperVolt or two.
2. Underweight, Chassis is too large and lacks weaponry like needing more razors. This is the type of bot you'll find on Banter Wars more than anything else. But otherwise, the skin paint job is the best part of this bot.
3. I think Apex might have a say in this for being a pony bot, or maybe someone like Playzooki for being a crawler. But despite this, it's a good crawler despite looking like it'll spin out of control from the fifth disc. Or maybe not?
4. Underweight Robots are starting to become a theme to this BOTM. While having good weapons and drive, the fact of this bot being underweight is just too hard to ignore. Edit: Ignore the Underweight part, since I ended up forgetting that IronForge weight classes are half of the normal weight class. Edit again: In fact this is a Ironforge SHW instead of an Ironforge HW.
5. You can't be too overloaded with that much weaponry. But I'm afraid that it could sacrifice some Weapons for more battery power like two, stacked Supervolts over the 6V.
6. While the bot may look nice to some, but I'm sorry the splash may need a little TLC. The cropping could of been better if the creator zoomed into the spots when the grey background of the bot lab shows up and crop there, instead of deciding to cropping onto some of the important parts of the bot and the black areas of the bombs. Even if this happen by an accident, it's best to try again from the copy of the image, then crop.

Lot's of "should of entered"s who never enter.  :rolleyes:

But hey, this is just for fun. BOTM hasn't been a showcase for the best of the best since JoeBlo and Click stopped entering. Maybe you can enter in July (as soon as I decide on the theme)

hmm. Scream or Cosmic Movement... that's a hard choice. i think i should choose the hybrid but IDK.



also, opinions !

1- it's not bad, honestly the second best bot of all. the drive seems a bit slow to turn. splash could use some work, but still one of the better entries there.
2- kinda boring and poorly built
3- it's a crawler and it's mlp themed. it can die in a fire for the levels of faggotry it reaches (no offense to gay people, it's just... *kill it*)
4- it's ok, but nothing exceptional. it has a lot of spikes and has a cool weapon system, but has no armor or any tactical design whatsoever.
5- It's a hybrid and it's the best build bot of all. for that it gets my vote.
6- Not bad of a design, but this isn't the first piston powered hammer (or Trinity hammer, which is not exactly trinity else it'll be spikeballing and glitching all over the arena). it's... okay, but there are better entries.

Post by: Dark-Al on June 05, 2017, 10:44:33 AM
I was right about the pony bot being built by Apenx! But moving on, I was not expecting both Neon and the Orc corp to be in this BOTM to be honest. I didn't even have a clue about number 2 even when I was critiquing it, but it's good first BOTM entry from the Orc, better than mine if you ask. As for the later user or number 6, I honestly thought that someone like TGM made this one, due to the poor editing of the splash like the poor cropping around the bot. But  since he doesn't build in Ironforge, I didn't know.

But congratulations 09 on your BOTM victory.

Thank you! I'll be rebuilding it as I did make it very last minute but I think the idea could work effectively!  :mrgreen:

First, you need to make the botlab background a flat color instead of the default gradient sorta thing.  This is definitely possible but I forget how.  Then use the magic wand tool set to 0% to select the gray background, and remove that.  You'll be left with just the robot.
