Hopefully it's still like the first Overdozer. I like the amateur feel to it.

What not to do list:

• Please don't start a new discussion topic before signing off.

Just noticed these two in the rules. Doesn't the bottom one prevent the top one?

hey dsc pink extenders when

Almost 1000 components because I used nothing but 10cm extenders. (Except the corners. Shh...)
I'm surprised that nobody else has done something like this yet.

I thought I might have fun in my heat, then I saw Coolrunner's bot, now I know it's basically gonna be liquefied lobster. Aside from Flood XL-C and Toxic Slash 2, I should at least be able to put up a decent performance against the others.

THOUGHTS

Ginger Step Child: I dunno, out in the first round, I think. The axes look pretty weak to me.

Smaug: Dislike.

Agent Orange: Nasty disc, but a big exposed chassis and exposed wheels looks dangerous.

Maelstrom: I guess it's powerful, but that poor wedge is going to make it difficult to really get stuck in.

F30: I like the look of this, and I'm going to enjoy all the weaker pieces getting ripped off it too.

Fusion Reactor: If this doesn't win Heat A, then colour me surprised.

Hurt Sandwich: Stale.

Zlammer: What a mess. At least it's protected from the big nasty spinners here.

Billet 9: Where did all the weight go? Could you not have made it bigger and jammed a more powerful motor in there? Or at least given it some sort of frame? I dunno.

Witching Hour: Gadreel could probably get some good hits in on the top of this before those big bars swat it away. Probably the Heat B winner here.

Reaper: In order for the weapon to hit the opponent, they need to be way up close and next to the exposed chassis. Hmm...

Gadreel: Well I guess that the chassis is out of harm, so that's something, although I kinda expect this just to slide around for days.

Darlene: But won't the teeth stop things from getting up the flipper?

Metrocide: I doubt it.

Industry 5: Looks pretty nice, but can it self right?

A Piece Of Rake: No drones here, buddy. Good luck.

Phobos: I think this one has the edge over Industry 5 and 31V15, so I'll call this the winner of Heat C.

31V15: As long as it doesn't fall on its face it should do well.

Galaxy: Four robots have central weapons that are going straight for that exposed motor. Unless the flipper can come into play, I don't see this doing very well.

Hypershocked: It's kinda cool looking, I guess.

Terrazone: If it can trap the opponents on those blades then it might stand a chance.

Cridine: It's a very weak heat, but I think this one might be able to win Heat D.

Duck Fury: My ex is Ducky. Stop trying to TRIGGER me. (Please win a match. Gotta have an underduck in this heat.)

Scratch: Man, I would've loved to have seen this getting dismantled by a big spinner. Shame.

Invasion: Just the perfect shape to allow me to get my hammer onto the chassis. Although to be in that position, the flywheels are gonna be tearing me two new front assholes, so...

Undercut: Looks pretty cool, actually, but the teeth seem awfully small.

Lobsteriffic!: Hell yeah. I'm set for an elimination in Round Two, unless Flood XL-C and Toxic Slash 2 are both taken out in the Group Battles.

Flood XL-C: Heat E winner, 'nuff said.

VF-09 Walkure: Very pretty looking. I doubt it's ability to battle, though.

Toxic Slash 2: Another very good looking robot. If Flood XL-C doesn't win Heat E, this one will.

Duke: Man, I hate the look of this robot.

Evil Art Project: Well someone had to make a spectrum robot with the new extenders, so why not. Looks very fragile to me, though.

Deathstalker: Doesn't look like this has much reach, really. I don't hold out much hope for it.

Hammatime: Yeah, this is a pretty dangerous robot, up until it loses a hammer.

Gamma: Nasty blade, sledgehammers for protection, Heat F winner.

Bullet Bot: Looks like the Black Ice of the tournament, and I hope it does well.
