Could you get your clipart out of the way so we can see most of the bot?

Real Robotics Discussion / Battlebots Season 2.0 Bracket Prediction Tournament

« on: July 01, 2016, 06:53:15 PM »

Hey so since we have brackets now, I figured we could do brackets like March Madness. Points can be like this:

1st round prediction correct: 10pts
Sweet 16 prediction correct: 20pts
QF prediction correct: 30pts
SF prediction: 40pts
Final prediction correct: 50pts

I can update the standings each week with everyone's points after the episode airs. My entry will be this:
http://challonge.com/skrtskrt

So if you want to participate, let me know. I've done this kind of thing before and it ends up being pretty fun. If you guys think this will suck, let me know and I won't go through with it.

That's still bullsh**. I guess the judges considered aggression to mean "completely miss the other bot with your hammer".

The fact that Disco Inferno didn't get a wildcard and Lisa's giant red sand box got one really gangbangs my gopher. This Ministry of Truth "Selection Committee" is on some real weird sh** here. You can have your opinions about the Chomp vs Disco Inferno fight but you should atleast think that the loser should get another fight. Damn...

From what I've read, aggression is all about your main weapon, and if your main weapon fails your kinda SOL.

The Sawblaze vs Razorback desicion was just as bad if not worse imo. Razorback's a cool bot though, so I'm not too upset over it.

That's some crap rule. It's like in football/soccer if people considered Giroud a better player than Iniesta because he scores more goals. This was ill conceived.

I still wonder why Chomp even won that. It was mostly just flailing around on its side like a fish on the dry. Disco Inferno was keeping good control over the match with that lifter as far as I could see.

Good publicity if they don't make this lady cry again.

What the hell is that robotica thing

I'm 99% sure it's the guy who built Zero sperging out after winning the obstacle course. He uh... didn't really come across as someone who was "all there". He also brought a robot to Robot Wars US called "Rocky Bot-boa" and came dressed as a boxer. 

PS: I love the Top 10 Anime Death Scenes meme with Ultraviolent.

Please tell me you have video. Please!

I felt so strange watching that last match. It's like, we were watching 2016 version of Mortis vs Razer in America. I just started feeling disconnected from these bots and started wondering if the former designs would've done better... Regardless, it was nice watching Beowulf with Robots.

Alright once again because I was on Warframe I missed this. So I went online and watch.

lol Bronco used its wheelguards as makeshift anti-hammer armor. Poor Blacksmith I knew he was gonna get wrecked but I didn't think it'd be bad enough for his hammer to broke off. Not as flashy as a victory as last year but Bronco is still advancing.

What happened to Lucky's other wedge plate? Did they have to remove it so it can fit the weight limit? But hey Beta at last fighting on TV screen after more than a decade!

Yup. Overdrive 2.0 getting owned. Can't say I didn't see that coming. Christian Carlberg's spinners were hit or misses. The best spinner performance I can only recall from him is Knee-Breaker. Minion WAS a spinner bot but it broke and won without it in Season 1.

Oh, awesome. Shrederator still got it.

I was rooting for Disk-O Inferno then I saw its disc broke after one hit. Its lifter is iffy too. Dante's suit is fabulous though.

Wow, that death blow from Minotaur. That was amazing.

Now THAT'S the Complete Control I want to see. That grappling and suplexing. And that grip. So beautiful.

Come on we saw Nightmare's death against Stinger coming. To rub salt in his wound, his self-righting mechanism was damaged from the flames.

Warhead fight is eh. But hey it legit move onto the 32.

Where did you go to watch it? PM me the link?

Also real talk about this Faruq Tauheed guy. When they said Mark Beiro wasn't coming back, I thought they totally dropped the ball. But this Faruq guy does a great job. Seems chill as hell as well.
