Jungle Fever is finally ready for its comeback.
For what?
That's a good question :P I'll have to wait for someone to announce a new HW tourney (or just save it for the OW3 World Champs, I guess).
He could put it in RWL? 
I don't know what that is.
I now hope Alloftheman actually made a thread for RWL in GTM and upload vids ASAP. Anyway, it's Robotic World League, a new tourney run by Alloftheman in Discord. The invite is actually over on the OW Discord

Decided to showcase this bad gimmick bot, a cannonbot, because want to show all bots I ever made, rather than left them unshown in my game, and also because I won't have anything to showcase for the next few months due to RL stuff. It's made three months ago by the way. And no, as I said before, this will be a gimmick bot for fun, and not for competitive stuff anymore whatsoever. In addition, just to add to the name, but the Black Flag name actually came from me remembering Assassin's Creeds IV: Black Flag when someone mentioned about pirates

With Superbot, yeah I agree...

Cool CW. Looks a bit like a race car

With Superbot, yeah I agree. I also think you can at least swap the two back TWMR2's drives with two NPC Fasts by rearranging the internals on the back slightly with the space you have. And also definitely increase your armor with the weight you have. Steel 1 is weak

Deadgnaws II looks like something NOT to be messing around with. It almost has the powwa of High school Ex.
If only it had a lower ground clearance.
Actually, weaponwise I think Highschool Ex outweapons Deadgnaws II because of how RA2 works, with Highschool Ex having more typhoon teeth and two Perm 132 powering the drisc, so it deals more damage. Deadgnaws II, on the other hand, only have two small typhoons powered by a Perm 132 IIRC

Gonna expect a 0-4 this season. Blue Bolt's only main strength is strong chasis armor.
Eh, with your matchups, I feel you'll get 3-1. Plus you have typhoon teeth to make you deal huge damage

Agree on the generic wedge comment, which is a shame with those nice extender details around the rear wheels. Your bots always have great extender accents like that. Maybe just a more unique front end?
Yeah, my extenderwork is still something I'm proud of, it's just the fronts of my robots that need work. I'll have a think about what I can do.
Anyway, today I decided to breathe some new life into an old friend.

I can't believe it's been almost two years since I built Jungle Fever. The bodywork hasn't changed much: the extenderwork is cleaner and better-optimised in a few places, it uses the new NPCs with the fixed APs, and I swapped the large Colsons for DSL wheels because why the hell did I give it large Colsons in the first place?! Massive waste of weight.
I still need to update the skin, but I'm posting it here now to get feedback on the main attractions: its alternate weapons. A lot of tourneys now, like Orc's Wars, limit you to only one Moros Blade (plus they slightly clip through the Perm even when you use the longest belt). So I've built two alternate weapon configs - a disc and a DSL bar - but I'm not too sure about either of them. Thoughts?
Looks cool. I think you should make the bot modular, with an option for disc and bar

OW3 bot opinions and rundowns: Xeni: Looks good as always. I also like the teeth setup now
Death is Drumming III: Great looking and effective drumbot. I hope it performs well
Slasher: Good VS bar spinner tbh. I hope it performs well too. Wedgelets look odd though from the splash.
Slapshot: Good looking and powerful flipper too. Like the extenderwork and wedging panel
Babaulti 4: I think it's improved lookwise from Babault3, with a proper weapon support this time. I question the quality of wedge though, because it looks like it now uses a single skirt hinge than two metal hinges, and I have a feeling that it's less effective at wedging.
Speed Demon V: My most favorite version of Speed Demon. It looks sleek and cool, as well as robust. I hope it performs as well as it did, if not, better than in Robot Emperor.
Arctic Fox Rampage IV: Also my most favorite version of AFR. The flipping arms on the two previous versions look a bit odd, so the bot switching to a flipping panel and in a setup like that looks cleaner and cooler.
A.M.M.N.O IV: It also looks cool. But I don't like the grey, and question that use of drum on one side of the weapon that is attached to the belt.
Gold Standard: Cool flipper. Though it also looks a bit empty with the polycarbonate use, and it now looks bulkier too.
CarboniCe: Awesome and great bot, like all of DSC's bot. My only gripe is the teeth amount. It's also a shame that DSC has now retired from RA2 for IRL robot combat.
Bocuma III: Cool and clean flipper from TR, like his bots. I hope it performs better in OW3, after it's OWO performance.
Saturnalia: Cool signature flipper from Primeval. I hope this one also performs well after it's tag team win.
Drugged Up StepsisteR: Like with DSC and few others, including Cringey and Flames, shame that Jamie has quit from RA2. Back to the bot though, great pusher with flamethrower. I hope it will perform well.
Tilted Evo 2: Probably one of my favorite shell spinner of all time. I like it. I do find the wedge on the front slightly questionable, unless if you can raise the shell IRL to put the wedge underneath on the chassis.
Cane Corso: Cool bot from Virus Bomb, of a bit exposed. I hope it performs well, since it looks like it's unchanged from OW2
CharybdiS 2.5: Good improvement from the first. I hope it's more stable this time. I also like the tail. However, it also looks like that Plerco has switched the wedge from two individual metal hinges to one skirt hinge.
Aggressive Negotiations 2: Another great RedAce bot. I love the skin on it. Idk though if it's now a pure rambot rather than front hinged top flipper.
Axiety: Feels bland tbh, because it has no color. The axe shaft also feels thin to me. In addition, the extenders around the chassis gives a bit of exposed feel.
Blue Bolt: I love the chassis shape and wedge on it. I think my only criticism is the no skin, the shell panel on the back for some reason, and typhoon teeth on the bar.
Carnivore: I love that one. Cool design and head. My only criticism is the skirt tail.
Clamping Blade: Not a fan tbh. The chassis is boxy and has no skin, wheelguards are weird and exposed, the arm looks pretty thin, and the smallest DSL disc doesn't fit with the small typhoons. In addition, the use of armor panels which have a small gap between each other with three wedgelets rather than a dustpan looks weird
Corrosion: Looks simple, but I don't like it for some reason. I think it's because of the dark grey color, as well as the proportion of the chassis width and length being a bit weird. I still think the CW kind of version of it in DM2 looks better
CPU-N Black Heart: Cool Neptunia themed bot, if not for the typhoon rack on the front as a rammer, and the two hinged unskinned small wedges, which look ugly
Cruncho: That's actually a cool bot by Plerco. Only thing I'm not a fan is the teeth, which should be heavy spikes imo.
Darwinian Predator: My bot. Tbh, surprised it won the 3rd OW3 place rumble and then survived the qualifier by luck, considering how bad it is, with static wedge, panels BFE'ed to extenders, and smartzone being far behind due to battery life concerns.
Deadgnaws II: Loving the Gnaws series, as always. I hope this new one will perform better than it's predecessors.
Disfunctional: Pretty unique I suppose, with the square disc. On the other hand, the extending thing at the front, as well as the wide ant wheels don't look good, even if it's meant to be Hypno Disc inspired
E.N.T.IV.T.Y.: I hope this Rapid inspired flipper series from Killer does well. I also hope those wedgelets will allow it to get underneath bots far better. I don't like what looks like intersecting panels on the flipper, between the wedge part and top part, though.
Eyes on Me: Cool bot from Pokebro, as always. It looks pretty sleek. I'm not a fan of the teeth though. Also, the panel being unskinned on here.
First Blood: Shame that Flames quit RA2. On the other hand with the bot, cool I suppose. I also like how he now fixed the teeth setup to give more bite and look more IRL. On the other hand, not a fan of the wheels and axles sticking a bit much out, or the wedge edge gap on the center wedge edge.
Fitness Felix: Colorful Double Dutch inspired bot I suppose. I honestly love the eyes, as well as the color of the bot. Will like it more though if the bars don't have beaters on the end.
Flare: Actually, the chassis shape is a bit unique, as well as the wheelguards. Also, good job with a clean wedge. But yeah, the typhoon ramming rack.
Flatline 3: Another cool bot from Hoppin, as always. I still like the 4WD, as well as the lowness and compactness of it.
Greedee: Looks sleek and clean. My most favorite bot from Bild among his OW3 lineup.
Hell's Angel: Honestly, not a fan of the mask kind of thing where the wedgelets attach to. It looks like it's hanging from the front a bit. The wheelguards don't look good too.
Highschool Ex: I actually found this one cool, despite the memes. I hope it performs as well as it did in Mech Madness.
Jilted Lover 1.5: Pretty cool and unique, as well as clean flipper. I hope this one performs well like it did on Destruction Evolution.
Koros 2: I love the new ring shape, as well as reduced teeth and the new setup of it. However, I don't like the cuss word on the flag though. I'm even surprised Doot somehow got away with it.
Kuro Hakai 3: Probably one of Kaiser's best bots aesthetically. I like the hammer, which is not a straight up sledge, but have a cutting teeth for aesthetics and damaging part. I also like the angled plate covering for the motor. The wedge also looks clean
M.A.D.: I think it looks a bit bland with the skin. I also don't like the skirt on the front. Good flipper though.
Mayor Marikina: Pretty great chassis flipper. Good skin, and the flipper sticking out on the top blends well with the rest of the bot. I also like the kinda patriotic theme, with it referencing a Philippines place.
Moment of Violence: Another hexagonal shell spinner that was made earlier. Seriously though, it looks good being a unique shape, but I think the polycarbonate doesn't fit with the top part of the shell, giving a bit of messy feel. I hope it performs well though after it failed to qualify for OW2
MUSHi MUSHi: It now looks even cooler, with reskinned components. Cool Mega Tento inspired bot in general though.
NIIIBLR: Cool drumbot. It is the best of the Nibbler lineup imo. However, I don't like how the static wedge panel thing on the front is done. On the other hand, I hope it performs well or even better, like in Robot Emperor before.
Optic: Not a fan of the new version. The skin is now more boring imo, and the support is not good and messy, being made of various round extenders. The axle on the top also doesn't get fully covered.
OverChopper Gen II: My other bot. I hope it can perform well. Idk though why one of my hinged wedgelets is like that. But on the other hand, it seems to perform alright, so.
OverLowered: It's a great overhead. I love the use of OBJRA2 to get that kind of chassis skin, as well as making some kind of a pseudo extenderbot.
Poison Frog: I'm not a fan of the supports to be honest. The lower part is not connected to the chassis at all, but floating. The invertible casters also feel weird, and the wedgelets look too much too.
Private Airtime: Cool and unique flipper, as always. I like the arm, even if the single burst makes it not that effective. I find the skirt for the flipping arm not good though
PuriN: I like the colored bar now. I also hope it's now more stable than in OWO. However, I still don't like the typhoon teeth for the bar
PurpleNurple V4: I think that this version of PurpleNurple is the least unique. On the other hand, I think it's also the most effective. I still hope it performs well though.
Renegade Cream: Looks like a unique drumbot with a large and fat drum from how it looks. Not a fan of the exposed axles for the wedgelet arms though
Roka 2: Flat and boxy, but I think it looks good. I like the reskinned panels for an extenderbot. It also reminds me of Death is Drumming, but flatter, with an eggbeater instead of drum, and with anime. Talking about anime, I'm also curious about who is the anime character on the top and bottom plate.
Sabre V: Honestly to me, I feel it lost it's sleekness now and looks fat aesthetically. However, on the other hand, I think it's more cleaner and stronger now, with the improved flipper and no skirt wedge.
Scoripo 2: Looks messy in some areas, and I think the front part shouldn't protrude from the rest of the dustpan kind of holder like that. But on the other hand, far improved than it's OW1 predecessor.
Shredder 2: Actually that's a pretty cool drumbot. I think it will do very well. On the other hand, not a fan of skirt wedge again, even if Bild took the effort to make it one with the wedge at least.
Sir Robert Fisticuffs: I hope this one performs well, more than in OWO, that Jamie has quit. On the other hand, not a fan of the exposed axles for the free flailing lifting arms though
Southern Storm: Looks weird for a shell spinner. Perhaps because it's tall and the shell is on the top, while the lower part is wedgelets and drive. On the other hand, love the Mayday reference though. I have also watched the referenced ep too just to say.
Swamp Thing: The wheelguards look a bit decent. But not a fan of the polycarbonate flipper, because I feel that polycarbonate is not a durable component and weird for flippers, the flipping motors being partly exposed, no skin, and the exposed skirt hinge. Plus the name being the same as a RL bot too. Though at least this version looks better than the MM2 one imo.
Sweet Crazyness: Cool OBJRA2 bot from Tashic, as always. I love the skin, and the Bombshell/Crazy Susan inspired design. The wedgelets look bland and not fitting though, being grey, and the fact it's static too worry me. I also don't like the teeth amount tbh. Should be two sets of teeth with two teeth per side for four teeth.
Tech X: Same name as a Thyrus bot from OW1. But on the other hand, love the signature Ryu Kishin design. I hope it will be effective and reach all the way, because it's pretty good looking.
Thanatos Redeemer: Boxy, but the extenderwork is neat imo, and the skin is cool. The wedge looks a bit weird though, and not a fan of the cutting teeth part of the drum. I think it should be just the beaters.
Infinity Gauntlet: I love this, because aside from the reference, solid and good looking VS. I hope it will perform just as well as it did on Destruction Evolution.
Toreador: Cool flipper. I hope it will perform as good as it looks, though idk how strong one beta for a flipper is
Ultra Swarf: Actually, it's a cool sawbot. I don't actually see the extending panels as bad, plus probabky controversial, but Badnik is a RL roboteer, so I think he at least has some idea of what he's talking about. Anyway, back to the bot, my only gripe is the pontoons not connecting well with the rest of the bot.
Ultrageous: Not a fan of the new version honestly. Chassis shape looks a bit weird, and it feels exposed with the polycarbonate use, and also talking about exposed, the fact the front part under the disc, such as the hinges, is completely exposed. I also don't like the colorscheme. A bit bubblegum like and the pink doesn't blend with the black imo
Unnamed and Untamed: Awesome flipper. I love the skin and use of T-Minus flipping arms. I hope it performs as well as it did on Mech Madness
Urchin II: I still don't like the tiny wheels, or the panel gap. But it certainly looks better than the first Urchin, not to mention more well supported.
Ursula: Not going to say a certain thing. Anyway, while I think the Hworf Blades feel a bit less powerful than the large typhoons, I think the new tribar looks better aesthetically. I hope it redeems itself.
Virtus II: I think the loss of the central wedge that sticks on the front for rows of wedgelets make it a bit less aesthetic. Though it also improved the wedge quality I think, as well as give a slot for the weapon to pass. Still love it though, with it's tiny size.
White Knight: Looks unchanged from the OWO version. I still think the wheelguards are neat. I just hope that the four small typhoons are reduced to either two, or Mystrysko adds another disc below the first disc and put the two smalls the same position as the ones on top. I hope it performs well though.
Wipeout: I love the skin. Though the bursts being partly exposed from the looks of it, the unaligned and unflush flipping panels, and the unaligned wedging panels bother me.

Talking about Fanfic, maybe should do a short one in my spare time for this. Perhaps a crack crossover fic or something. I'm too lazy to write stories tbh

Great build, try more weapons. I like the texturing of the panels you used.
It's a DSL-IRL bot if you assume things like add teeth or something. And also, the panels are components and not reskinned. It just look like that because if the lighting

Going to do rundowns and opinions as always Azharcho: Reminds me of Parkopino. In fact, it's aesthetically resembles the first Parkopino without top bits, have a flipper, and being Dino themed tbf. Though moving on, I hope the wedge is effective on that.
Boiled: Idk my exact opinion on that lobster bot, and if the arms can move. But I think KidDelta should add few angled pieces to close that gap on the arms, as having only one angle extender holding two parts of the arm is not good. Alao, I prefer a skin
Darwinian Predator Gen II: My bot. I hope the new one's hinged wedge will make it do better. But I'm also worried about the fragility of the bot's side, as well as only clamp config due to modular ban
Edward J: Idk the exact theme, but it actually looks sleek and good. My only complaint is the flipping arms clipping with the brown part of the front, with no gap on the upper part.
Grizzyly: Idk the exact weapon. Maybe it's a clamp or something. But tbh, that one doesn't look good, having a large chassis, protective panel not enclosing the part of the chassis where it's attached to completely, and no skin.
Hornet: Another cool Gulden bot. The chassis is boxy and the wheel, drive axles, and wheelguards look odd, but cool wedge and weapon.
JackO: Tbh, looks like a great drumbot. I hope it will perform well like last NW.
Killer B3: Idk. It's the champ, but it's also a boxy Tombclone, with the support not being full at the front, and the chain above the support. The wheel and axle is also ugly to me, despite being Tombstone inspired.
Mantis Shrimp: Cool skin, and decent extenderwork. The partly exposed burst and sticking battery cable irks me a bit, but otherwise, cool.
Mouser Mecha Catbot: Nice replica by Kix. I think it could perform well like in RWL
Parkopino Plus: I honestly love the transformation from jokebot rammer with flamethrower to a serious VS with great extenderwork. It looks like a serious contender this time.
Preying Mantis: Cool RedAce bot. Reminds me of his earlier HW clamp, Yellow Jacket, as well as his take on Cranky Spanky in the Reborn AI pack.
Rawr Goes the Dino: Honestly, doesn't look that good to me. The hammer is weird being that small, plus no slot. The skin texture looks weird to me for some reason too. And the two iron spikes protruding from the wedge ruins the bot's look for me.
Serpent III: Cool Sagaris bot. Messy and the slightly unlined flipper irks me a bit too, but looks great otherwise. I'm worried about wedge quality though with the bit just relying on flipper to wedge.
Super Fast Jelly Fish: Looks a bit weird. But maybe it makes sense for a Jellyfish inspired bot.
The Yeti Crab: A bit better and cleaner than Grizzly tbh. But no skin feels bland.

Happy with V1's performance this episode. I like how it got to the back of Mega Pencilbox and attacked it from there. I'm also sad that Rooster suffered from another bad loss, especially when this time, it survived less than previous battle, even with undamaged motor. Also, oof at Disprezzata 3 getting screwed by the AI.
Anyway, for my next fight, I think it looks like that I got another lucky matchup against End It 3, seeing how the wedge quality on that is not good

Rear Hinge Flipper
Nice 9/10
I think it's really stupid to rate bots when you don't even critique how to make it a 10/10 in the first place! 
Wow, now Bild even whacking Code Red [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]

HW
Rear Hinge Flipper
Anyway, back to the bot, really awesome. I love the rounded back design. It also feels a bit like Thyrus' build imo

I think my bots are too generic. One’s not recieving any votes...
Performance over looks isn't exactly a philosophy that works for BOTM, where 95% of it is decided on looks
Yeah, to add, surprised your IF IRL bot got a vote at all, given how messy and ugly it is tbh. And yeah, people are going to vote IRL or artbot over stock because looks
