Well since signups are open now I might as well post my Orc's Wars Overclocked lineup here. Not including what events they're in so folks can't enter stuff specifically to counter them [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] They've all been posted in here before but I'll give each bot a quick rundown for those that may have missed them. Sabre IV - My personal favourite bot I've ever built, This one is a minor evolution of Sabre III which shortens the bot to make it more nimble as well as beefing up armour in a few areas.Resolute - Really happy with the looks of this one. Storm burst powered lifter with 4WD TWMRsKnockout - S3/Pulverizer vert from a while back. Extenderspam nightmare and probably not the most effective but it looks fairly cool and can maybe do some work against the right opponent. Perm 132 for the disc and TWMRs for driveSpeed Demon IV - This one is a little modified since last seen. Version IV of Speed Demon sacrifices some speed for a dedicated srimech, a tanky steel wedge and a single, perm 132 flywheel instead of dual perm 80 discs.Catastrophe - SHW wild thing thing with a dual perm disc.Dambuster - CW that I'm really happy with looks wise. 4 slimbodies for drive and 2 Vsmall VDMAs for the weapon. Probably won't be OOTAing anyone but should be able to bully some bots and maybe win a couple of JDs if it's lucky Apotheosis -Lil middleweight vert that already lost a fight in middleweight mixup but showed a little bit of promise at least. TWMR drive and a flatmotor for the weaponBoolean - Super fast lifter/flipper. Probably gonna explode but can push like there's no tomorrow with 4 NPC fast drive and 2 small VDMAs for the flipperBocuma III - Rebuilt from scratch since OW2. More efficient building allows the armour to be upped in every aspect (Front has gone from Ti to steel, sides have gone from all Alu to a mix of steel and Alu. Most other stuff is Ti) and I also gave it a less crappy wedge and removed the previous version's ability to split in half with the chassis attached to the non-mobile part.
Ey, looking great, personally I'd say Dambuster is the weakest of the lot, due to it's lack of KO'ing capabilities compared to the others, but it's probably one of the better looking ones imo.Also you got a shot of Cicada firing? How can it be speed demon if theres no speed?

The fact it works at all surprises me so I'm willing to overlook how godawful it looks when flipping [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] The Speed Demon name was mostly from the fact that it uses the martini racing colour scheme on the chassis. The fast drive of the old one was part of it, buit it just caused too many issues with the bot flipping itself and sucked up weight that could have been used on features that are actually beneficial like a srimech and better armour.

Knockout stands out as the coolest to me, I like how you didn't use a mecha or typhoon teeth, extra bonus points for that

It's an underrated component I'd say. One of the cooler looking rep discs and surprisingly effective too.
Looks pretty good to me, I love the front wedglets. The wheels poking out looks a bit odd to me though, any way you could tuck them in?
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**
Looks like it won't be able to get under anything (except spinners of course).
I meant both configurations, although I don't see the first config getting under much at all.
Looks cool man, it like how it looks like a thing not just a generic bot
