Wow. I was not expecting to out-wedge DOAM. Good fight Jules, and we might still meet again.

Out of DoaM, HazCon, and HamSam, I'd only feel confident about fighting one of the three in the finals. Second (which I'm guaranteed I think...) in any tourney is great, let alone BBEANS. I'm looking forward to seeing the finals, whoever I end up fighting.

I think I used 45 degree ones.

The rebuild of obZen is almost done too. It's about 50000000 times better that the one in RAW.

Yes it is. It probably should've doubled as a flipper when all the razors fell off, but that AI is kinda alot to ask of Sage when he's doing the tourney. I'm working on a new version of obZen now. Hopefully, it will not run into the same wedge problem.

Err, obZen won the first match by points, so it was 2-1 for DF.

I can't really say I'm suprised here. By my sheer idiocy, I overlooked the fact that anything with a wedge can get under the ramplate wedge on the front. Enfilad3 is much better at this. I have to face H@zm47 now, and I think he'll win by virtue of his weapons having more HP than mine.

A suggestion for the tourney, please don't post the winners in the brackets after their matches. It kinda ruins the all of the suspense.

On another note, GO HUM-DRUMS!!

Except ACAMS. If we're going to have this thing, shouldn't we at least use it?

I prefer you post them Clickbeetles way, the whole round at once. I'd prefer no commentary too. Save yourself the unnessesary work. That little less editing will save you time so you can get more videos up quicker.

And luck ALWAYS happens in RA2.

Cool, except Atom Smasher was a MW.

The wheels are also a bit too far back of the bots centre, and the drive looks a bit slow. Otherwise, pretty good.

Well, I haven't really built much lately, but here's a couple of things I have:

EL3CTRIC R3D
A LW popup. It would be the 3rd member of the team that would include Enfilad3 and obZen.

- 1 black DSL battery, and 2 red ones
- 2 razor tips
- hypno wheels on slim body motors

Basically, my version of Inf's Haymaker:

5mm Titanium armour

And the new and improved version of obZen you should see in RAW:


Any thoughts?

Quote from: Sage;16351
you guys underestimate the Humdy Bros.


Perhaps we might think differently if we could actually see them in the splash :3

Goodbye Blue Sky vs. Morse Code Breaker
Winner = Goodbye Blue Sky
Why = Morse Code Breaker's drive looks much too slow to get philetbabe's tank into the saws. GBS will maul its way to either a KO or a WBP.

obZen vs. Deprivator
Winner = obZen
Why = On popups, the wedges are key. Deprivator looks like it has a pretty poor one.

Thor 3 vs. Archimandrite V
Winner = Archimandrite V
Why = In this battle, Thor can't afford to ride up the wedges of H@zm47's bot. If it dosen't, it has a much better chance.

T O R Q U E vs. Hum Drums
Winner = T O R Q U E
Why = Hum Drums pose little threat to T O R Q U E, because of the general lack of weaponry, and their comparatively light weight will cause very little recoil. Hell, Gigafrost might even send one of 'em OOTA.

Steel Meatball vs. Lousy Launcher
Winner = Steel Meatball
Why = Lousy Launcher gets some awful luck here, drawing potentially its greatest weakness. LL might win a match, but the Meatball should grate it like some cheese.

Lu-Tze vs. Infernal Contraption
Winner = Infernal Contraption
Why = This match too will come down to the wedges, and InfCon's are probably better. This might be the most exiting match of the first round.

Mako 4 vs. Destroyer
Winner = Destroyer
Why = Mako 4's reach is far too short to even touch Destroyer, but if the fight persists and Destroyer loses a hammer, the fight is all but Mako's.

BLAH vs. P-AI-Daisy Might_50
Winner = P-AI-Daisy Might_50
Why = When BLAH gets up to speed, it'll be a scary bot. And in this match it probably will. The force of that initial impact might be so great that one of the bots goes OOTA. Daisy Might_50, however, has two more 60kg hammers than BLAH, and with BLAH's weight distribution, as soon as its first hammer goes, it'll Mauler-dance like crazy.

Speed King vs. Classy Paintjob
Winner = Speed King
Why = When Classy Paintjob loses a hammer, it will gyro dance, leaving that big chassis open for attack.

Pinball vs. Facemelikeaman
Winner = Pinball
Why = As long as Pinball stays in the arena, FMLAM is gonna get pounded. Being the lightest bot in the competition won't help FMLAM either.

Far Cry 2 vs. Shadow
Winner = Far Cry 2
Why = Far Cry's wedges might be some of the best in the tourney. I'm not even sure that Shadow's wedge even counts as a wedge. Shadow's out-wedged, out-armoured, out-driven, and out-weaponed here. This could be a quick match.

Really? I actually haven't noticed that. And I'm not joking either.

@ Inf: Probably because sage capitalized it on the splash. Blame him :P

Bots that scare me:

Mako 4 - Jules built it. Jules builds some of the best VS's. Therefore, it should be one of the best VS's

Lousy Launcher - In a word: wedgy. A flipper won BBEANS 2, and this flipper is better that that one, so it might go far.

Destroyer - A huge bar makes its chassis hard to get to. The kinetic energy that thing carries around could punt most bots away before they get close.

Pinball - It'll probably end up going OOTA, but it has the potential to do some damage.

Far Cry - Good wedges and a powerful weapon. A lethal combo.

Infernal Contraption - See: Hazardous Contraption. I'm not sure about its wedges though.

Daisy Might 50 - That's alot of hammers... big hammers, too. It could fail hard though.

----

PSI and BLAH are also intriguing. BLAH looks like it could be one of the most powerful bots in the thing, and PSI might be durable as heck. I'm not really sure how either of them will do.

Good fight Naryar. It was very close. I really don't want to face HazCon again. It's a damn good bot.

Great, now onto DoaM. Somehow, I think this fight will be alot like sage's...

From my experience, wedges on green snappers are always better, but for sake of building, I'd be glad to be proven wrong, because blue ones are much lighter and they have that extra attachment point. Some battleshots of his wedges vs. your wedges would be nice.

sage wins because I'm sure in a fight his would pwn due to uber wedges.
