Crawl Through Knives 4.2 vs Vela
Winner: Vela
- Oggie should get consideration for the best rookie, but he disappeared a while ago. With a previous loss to Death Dealer, the very similar Vela can make his bot disappear from the tourney too.

You know, I've seen Oggie lurking around once in a while within this week.

If I win my next fight, then who am I vs next?

Don't worry, dude. If you lose, you're gonna be ranked 23 to 26-ish. If I lose, I'm going to the 30's.

GO FB !!!!!!

And my predictions are the same as R0B0's.

EDIT: LOL at 40757

40757 probably got that out for my sake. :|

Ugh, I just hope I can have a repeat of the successful double team flip out on AC again. When the time comes. Or actually get it on the wedge, remembering that round where AC got a havok warning.

T-800 Terminator vs Bumble Bee
Winner: T-800
While BB has more weapons, most of them ain't gonna touch the opponent unless some of those Irons are broken, even with that, BB has an overall slower weapon speed, which means this may be a WPB or TKO for the Terminator.

Big Flip's Revenge vs No Hype 5
Winner: No Hype 5
- What the Hell, just to be an optomist.

Insult to Injury V vs Trojan Horse
Winner: Trojan Horse
Unlike PitA, Trojan has got a more simple wedge, he also doesn't have castor armour which could have played a part, and lastly, he has a single wedge. Razor Guy's record is intact. *Sigh*

Crawl Through Knives 4.2 vs Vela
Winner: Vela
Vela could make it all the way.

Shadow Tyrant vs Death Dealer was the best match in this tourney so far. Easily 5 stars in my opinion.

All of these fights were great.

I'm not terribly confident about my fight against CI though. My smartzone appears to be a little too far forward for my liking, but hey, that's what I get for not AI'ing my own bot (and if I did, I didn't do a very good job :P). I still think that I can win.

Anyways, PREDICTIONS!

T-800 Terminator vs Bumble Bee
Winner: Bumble Bee
- More weapons, and the ability to attack Starcore's exposed top will lead to the killer BB marching on to fight Death Dealer (whom it will also beat)GHEEEEEEY

Big Flip's Revenge vs No Hype 5
Winner: Big Flip's Revenge
- It will do exactly what it did against Bounty Hunter in the last round, and go through, where, sadly, it will probably be the end of the line for the little guys, as Absolute Chaos stands in their way.

Insult to Injury V vs Trojan Horse
Winner: Insult to Injury V
- Why the not?

Crawl Through Knives 4.2 vs Vela
Winner: Vela
- Oggie should get consideration for the best rookie, but he disappeared a while ago. With a previous loss to Death Dealer, the very similar Vela can make his bot disappear from the tourney too.

Winners Bracket:

R4 vs Copyright Infringement
Winner: R4
- In the combat zone, this fight would last about 6 seconds for all three rounds, but we're not there, are we? Still, I think R4 remains just too powerful to give its opponents any time to do any serious damage.

Seism 13 vs Shadow Tyrant
Winner: Seism 13
- Neither bot has faced another wedged one yet in the tourney, so I don't know just how good S13's wedges really are, or if Trov has found a way to make the E-wedges work. Just from past experience, I'm leaning towards Firebeetle's, but Trovaner is one of the best builders here. Knowing that, you can bet it won't be an easy fight...

I agree with your predictions.

JoeCB1991 · « **Reply #589 on:** July 17, 2009, 01:05:35 PM »

At least I made it to #20 in a bracket with almost 64 bots.

I'm not gone. Just been slacking lately. I think you are right about the match tho. If it were the combat arena I would have a decent chance, but the box in the middle ****s up pretty badly. *Hoping for some "high speed collisions" like in round 2 against Death Dealer*. And last, but not least: Thanks!

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #591 on:** July 17, 2009, 07:37:04 PM »

<3 Seism 13, I still remember when FB showcased it.

Trovaner will win BBeans.

Naryar · « **Reply #592 on:** July 18, 2009, 01:47:12 AM »

Personally i have my bets on Seism 13.

philetbabe · « **Reply #593 on:** July 18, 2009, 03:01:19 AM »

i think winner bracket will face shadow tyrant vs R4, and, finally, my points for Shadow Tyrant, i bet on Trovaner deep knowledge.

looser bracket :
T-800 Terminator vs Bumble Bee : T-800 should reach BB chassis more often that bb will -> T800 win

Big Flip's Revenge vs No Hype 5 : no hype will justify its name -> Big flip will gets its revenge and wins :-(.

Insult to Injury V vs Trojan Horse : Who got the best wedge ? maybe ITI (btw i'm sure it's got ballast)

Crawl Through Knives 4.2 vs Vela : Crawl Through Knives 4.2 seems to have very weak armor not enough compensated with those plates -> Vela wins.

Round 6 loser's bracket is up!

And, um, not much more to say than that. Very good fights, but at this point they're all pretty good.

Also, a thought that occurred to me. All the bots remaining in the winner's bracket are veterans. Could a veteran, instead of a rookie, win BBEANS for the first time in the tournament's history? Moreover, could it be a non-spinner? (Both stock champions were HS's.)

PREDICTIONS:
T-800 Vs Death Dealer:
T-800 has armor, Death Dealer does not. Win to T-800.

B.F.R. Vs A.C.:
Inf beat him the first time, I can't see how he wont do it again. Win to A.C.

Trojan Vs. Cocytus:
Cocytus wedge is better, but Trojan is faster. Unknown outcome.

Surgic Vs. Vela:
Srugic had no trouble killing T-800, Vela should be no challenge. Win to Srugic.

so uh, weren't the flippers sposed to throw you into the blade, not outside the arena?

Good fights, hope the next rounds good.

It depends on the bot. MOST bots will land on/near the blade (textbook example: PitA 8 vs. Absolute Chaos). But for some reason Bumble Bee is just a good flier. I can't imagine why lack of true wheels would send a bot across the arena instead of only halfway, but that is what it seems to be. Maybe something to do with grip and resistance? Seems like when you get flipped, if you land on your wheels, your bot stops pretty quickly, but if you land on a component, your bot bounces and skids. At least that's what I've noticed.

T-800 flying out of the arena is easier to explain. It had lost all of its weapons by that point in the fight, which is nearly half its weight, so obviously it will fly farther.

Damn Horisontal Spinners. If there only were some way to dodge them in the bracket. And what's up wit all the bumping around in round 1 and 2?
