[cool ass logo.png coming soon]

yeah yeah i know i don't have the best tournament hosting record but just hear me out ok this is gonna be cool

RULES:
- DSL 2.2, Middleweight AND Heavyweight
- One entry per person per weight class.
- The arena we will be fighting in is the Death Facility arena from the Robot Wars RA2 Mod. I'll reskin this at some point between now and the time the SBV thread is posted.
- 2 minute matches
- Double elimination bracket
- This tournament will be held to VERY STRICT IRL Realism standards. None of that borderline crap. Make your robot look like a real robot or it will be rejected.
- Matches that contain Havok will not be shown. If your robot cannot participate in a match without havoking then it will be rejected.
- All glitches are allowed as long as your robot is still IRL-realistic. I will be judging this VERY STRICTLY so do not push it.
- RA2 Component Freedom is allowed and encouraged to make your robots look as good as posible.
- BFE for realism and aesthetic purposes are allowed and encouraged as long as the robot stays realistic.
- Robots must look as close to real-life designs as possible.
- No Flamethrowers, Crawlers or SnS. Thwackbots are fine.
- Multibots are allowed.
- MW Walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 800 kgs, but at least 400 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
- HW Walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 1200 kgs, but at least 400 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
- Swiss Army Bots are limited to three different weapon systems.
- DSC's IRL packs are allowed and encouraged for this tournament.
- Other skinned parts are also allowed and encouraged, as long as they are included in your PM. Make your robot look unique and interesting!
- If your robot looks really bad (like for example a garish box with a weapon slapped on it) then your robot will be rejected.
- I reserve the right to re-skin any robot I think has a bad or low-effort skin.
- I reserve the right to reject blatant re-entries or boring clones of existing robots. Put some effort into making something original, it really isn't that difficult.
- The following Cheatbot2 Components are allowed:

Basically I want you guys to put as much effort as possible into making something that looks fantastic. The art tournament to end all art tournaments. Can you guys do that?

JUDGING
- Fights will be judged on significant attacks and control of match.
- Judging will be done by myself. If anyone has an issue with this then we can discuss it in the thread.

ALL of the robots that participate in this tournament will be included in the first release of Live Designs AI 2.2.

Original post says you can enter one bot in each weight class and no more.

Apologies. I misunderstood your post. I thought you were asking how many bots you can enter.

anything that doesn't use wheels or treads as locomotion as long as weapons aren't involved (those are crawlers)

(saws for wheels are legal but they dont count for the walker bonus)
