Damn tough draw :/

[RedAce]

My Personal Thoughts:

32 Footsteps: Looking pretty good, might do pretty well.

Aye Yo: Doesn't look very threating.

Brazilian Tranny Midget: I bet it's gonna fly everywhere.

Count Cripula: Looks odd and not very tough.

Doctor Dre: Another hybrid eh? Interesting.

Excelsior S: It's using the same chassis as the IRL version.

Forsaken: Looks very tough and well armored.

Gaffel: *cough IRL cough*

Partition: Doesn't look to bad for a flatbed juggler. No way of self-righting will be an issue though.

Princess, Princess, Princess: Looks pretty decent. Not much to say honestly.

Rust Bucket: I doubt I'm making it past my first round.

Silver Shark: Looks great but again, can't self right.

Streamline: Slightly reminds me of Smitemare 8 from BBEANS4.

The Spanish Inquisition: I love the name reference. Other than that, it's okay.

Velociraptor Stranta: Decent looking popup at best.

Overall, we have some threatening opponents. This could be either my worst or hardest tournament to win. Good luck everyone!

[rnifnuf]

Well, crap. I should have put a wedge on TSI. I don't think anyone expected it though.

Good luck to all I face. TSI has his work cut out for him.

Almost all of my bots are IRL style. Thats what I like to do  Hopefully Gaffel can shock since its one of my favorites and just look at that weapon description "pneumatic scoop" Mmmm!) but theres only one chance so it might get tough. My money is on Velociraptor Strana. GL all!

[Agaton]

Like the splashes (including the bracket splash) btw! Very neat!

[Mr. AS]

ayy lmao

Hopefully my bot can deweapon Partition, or gaffel can flip it over from behind.

Thank you, I reused the templates from the original Breaking Point.

Technically I could have done seeding for this.

1. RedAce
2. TBD
3. Kurt
4. MassimoV

I would've been cool with this. It would show that competitors has had experience with the IRL Breaking Point.

Of course these seeds are meaningless because DSL-S is totally different to IRL.

Nice avatar, change the PT though.

Whoops thanks for pointing that out. What do you think of it now?


On-topic, when should we expect videos?

[Philippa]

Later today.

[Philippa]

Round One has been fully recorded, and is being uploaded to YouTube right now.
Just saying, a few surprising battle outcomes.

Also, just a heads up, the third and fourth videos might play a little slowly because they recorded on a low framerate and play on my laptop slower than the others. The first, second, and fifth battles are playing at regular speed.

I was rooting for Gaffel just because of the weapon, hoping it wouldn't get absolutely raped. Then that happened...
It's not even rigged, honest.

Massive congrats to Agaton.

[RedAce]

Umm, It says the video is private.

Well then, I underestimated the only IRL bot here.


What's "Stuff and Things and More Stuff?"

[Philippa]

Umm, It says the video is private.

It was set to Public when it uploaded, weird. It should be fixed now.

3rd seed knocks out the 2nd seed to go through.

Were you meant to keep the part at the end in, in part one?

[Philippa]

No, I forgot to stop recording. I didn't have any reason to take it out apart from "So it looks tidy."

[yugitom]

Making it look tidy is an important thing. It doesn't take much effort, in any editing software, to cut out the end of a video.
