Ha, it kind of helps my LW and HW are expies x) (Madd = Vladinator, Shard = Splinter)

I'm liking what I am seeing. Should be an excellent tournament.

Madd looks more like Alpha/Beta/Gamma Raptor to me.

Should be an interesting fight if HA's and Naryar's Heavyweights ever have a face-off.

Damn I love Madd, the Junk Mailer. It really is like a cross between Gamma Raptor and Vlad the Impaler.
Overall, I reckon I have the potential to win a couple fights, just gotta hope I don't fight a HS or VS in the first LW round. It would be awesome if I fought Slab II though in the HW division. Diesector lookalike vs. New Cruelty lookalike.

Madd - Gamma Raptor

CRM-114 - Ziggo

Wild Boar - Hexy Jr.

Hades - The Crusher

Formula 7 - Wireless Wonder

Yeah that's definitely the style of bot I was going for with Wonder Wasp. :P

When will the other two splashes be up MassimoV?

Nut sure how HW will go for me with my flamer, but I think I have a pretty good shot at LW. After all, Vague Entity was a runner up in a Battlebots tourney before. But it's still RA 2 so I won't get my hopes up too high.

Pikmin Dispenser - Death By Monkeys
Death By Pikmin  :dumb)
And geez, it does look like Death By Monkeys, that didn't cross my mind, and when videos are up, Pikmin Dispenser goes really fast. That's because i feed it candy before every match it has NPCF Drive, the opponent that i'm most scared of is S_M's ghost, Redline's Madd, The Junk Mailer and Wolfbane's Nurse Luna. I may be able to outrun Ghost and Madd tough.

I'm worried about the new JIGSAW s'reach problem low profiled bots like the Pimkin Dispenser or bots with sloped sides like squared will be a pain unless i bounce off the front and hit the top of my opponent (which SHALL happen if i fight sylandro with his NPCF drive)

And Cyclonic Destruction s'invertibility issues (only 2 wheels touch the floor when inverted) and his Tit 1 armor could be his downfall

Anyways, good luck to everyone and let's hope for good fights

Same here. After Ryu-Kishin won the first Battlebots I entered it in BB4 where it lost in round 2 iirc. This new one has fixed the problem that ended the run in season 4 plus it has new weapons. Hope this will win the heavyweightdevision again

Depending on the draws I get I can see hades doing ok, I don't hold out much hope for Ziggy's Bastard Son however but it should put on a good show before it inevitably gets beaten. My main hope is on my shw and maybe lw.

Some of the bots look fantastic. Especially liking Scraps LW The Notrius BOZ, aswell as Clicks LW.

As someone who doesn't really build heavy bots, lots of those HW bots look mean.

Can't wait to see the MW splash. It's the class I expect to do the best in.

SKBT's lightweight is going to make the brackets confusing if it does well.

Not sure what Jigsaw may do if it gets put up against a flipper such as my bot Voltergeist, Coolrunner's Wild Boar, or Redline's Madd.
