those 2 matches must have been mirror images of each other.. both ended at the same time on the clock Except that Seism 13 had one wedge left in the 1st and neither in the second; the blades cut the extenders off! XD

 Rebuilt my 8-ramplate popup, because I found that the wedges sucked (ramplates were hitting the ground, dunno why I didn't notice it before :P). Main changes: Longer wedges, 8 razors, better side protection (not by much though), and better space management. I'm definitely happy that the wedges are better. Managed to do this in its first AI test:  And in the test afterward, this:  Wedges don't do well in head-on first charges, though. And I should mention that those matches were 2 mins in length, for a little simulation.

A lot of these bots are overpowered, and aluminum isn't really the best choice for armor. Some of them could use better drive as well. Other than that, they all look decent.

I had 2 extenders on the bottom rack tilted downward to hold up the front. It drives straight most of the time when I'm controlling it, but it keeps turning under the control of the AI.
"It's not like there aren't at least 10 bots built exactly like that by other builders..."
Is that supposed to be advice? (sarcasm). And yes, I know he's saying my bot is generic, but remember: I'm NOT a good stock builder.

 Started building in stock again recently. Made/remade a few bots, including this:  Clouded Leopard - 6WD HPZ
- 2 Supervolts
- 36 Irons
- DSA
Been trying to get a decent rammer, but the damned thing won't drive straight while AIed, so unless I can figure out how to fix that, I won't be entering it in any tournaments in the near future. I'll probably just switch to 2 wide weapon racks instead of the current, three rack setup for better protection.

Red and black, like JB and Pwn, and several grayish/silver hues.

Reminds me of R4...
You could use the remaining weight to lengthen the wedge extenders.

Wow, my luck sucks this tournament.
The odds are already against me winning against Doomaster, and even if I do win, I'll never be able to get past that crawler.
Oh well, maybe I'll get better luck in RAW 2... oh wait, I WON'T, because even though my entry's decent, it will NOT do well in the arena we're fighting in.

I never said I don't like Explosive Material; I like the design, but I think it could have been executed a little better :P

From what I can tell, the arena seems to be like a tabletop arena, so I would enter Allomancer, but you never know.
If you do, I would suggest grippier wheels; Vlads would be fine.

I never really liked how Explosive Material's design was done, so I made my own:  3 ants, 1 battlepack, 3mm tite. I find it rather wedgy; usually gets under Saberteeth, but it has trouble keeping the other bot on the wedge. Maybe angle the front skirts so they act like trapping sheets?

You know you need a lot of improvement when you see that you didn't receive a single vote.

I just wanted to enter something other than a spinner in this tourney. So did I, mainly because I didn't have any good HS at the time. And Sage, you were mostly correct on the first guess, but really, it's the message at the entrance to the Sealed Chamber, underwater. The message itself has almost no purpose; I just had the game on my mind while building it. You still get a cookie though:

Hmm... I was hoping for results slightly more different than last, but oh well.
BTW does anyone know if I got any votes?

Its a Pokemon game. I believe it is Sapphire/Ruby/Emerald game.

Yep, but what game? For some reason it just came to my mind while naming the bot.
