LW: Voltergeist vs Y.O.L.O. If I can get one flip in, Y.O.L.O. will be done for.

MW: Dr. Demolition vs S.W.A.G. I redesigned the good doctor to counter S.W.A.G.'s type of weaponry.  If all goes to plan, we'll be seeing a robotic autopsy while the subject is still alive.

HW: Texas Tornado vs Hollow Points.  I don't remember how Scrap Daddy's HW did last time so this match could go either way.
Battlebots 7: LW Quarterfinals - Voltergeist
Battlebots 7: MW Quarterfinals - Dr. Demolition
Battlebots 8: MW Quarterfinals - Dr. Demolition
Battlebots 9: HW Quarterfinals - Texas Tornado
Battlebots 9: Middleweight Champion - Dr. Demolition
Minor Inconveniences: Runners-up - Hot Rod/Voltergeist
TGRR2 IRL: Texas Tornado 11 wins - 10 losses

Well, by the looks of the draw, could be making it past the first round :)

A competitor whom unexpectedly gets far in a tournament. Seeing your brackets, luck seems to be on your side.


Or just a black horse.

I only entered because I wanted to be a part of it. My robot's cant function for toffee.

Iggy - Can't flip, can't self right.
Lazarus - Havoks way too much.
Hephaestus - Slow hammer, not very damaging.
The Blind Monolith - Oh lawdy it's slow. Slow to move and slow to spin.

Out in Round 1 for all four I'm predicting.

LW: Truly depends on the opening stages of the battle. If I can pin Billet 5 against the wall and hack away at its bodyshell, I will win. If Billet 5's blade powers up too quickly and keeps knocking me away, he'll win.

MW: Thru the Walls will definitely get under me, no two ways about it, but the fight will fall into my hands if my drum is able to rip that weak T-Connector off. If Articulator can do it, Thru The Walls will have no weapon and an easy KO/JD will come my way. If I don't, well, Articulator will come out of this event looking like a hippo sat on it.

HW: Crasp Drone 2 looks tiny. Don't know if that's an optical illusion but if I'm fighting an MW sized heavyweight, there's no contest. My front spike strips are designed to specifically get under scoops and panel wedges, so if I flip him, I'll have my way with him.

SHW: Sorry playzooki, but unless your bot travels at 1000000mph, you won't be able to beat me. Super Diced isn't particularly fast, but is very torquey. The flamethrower will weaken LHMYG's bodyshell, and the armory of spikes on the front will finish it off.

Finals' predictions:

LW: Stormageddon 2 vs. Chinese Boxing
MW: Chief Kamachi vs. Flood 2
HW: Hurricane 2 vs. Arsonist
SHW: Whyachi's Revenge's Revenge vs. Monsoondoom

Comments:
Sandslash Mk2 is obviously a slightly modified Backyard Ripper. Is that even allowed?
GAH BETA HAMMERS!!!!!111!!!one!!!
Crocodile Rock is definitely going to get flipped again.

You're predicting my bot to win?

That's a first.

Crocodile Rock is definitely going to get flipped again.
