Well...

I MIGHT (keyword might) make it past round one. I think I'm toast after that.

Ohoho, is that a Grudge Match against Jonzu I see?

i may or may not stand a chance here.

May the best wedge win! (Or ounce)

Can you post what the bots are supposed to be?

NFX · « **Reply #6 on:** July 11, 2010, 04:37:31 PM »

XD Nice one, Sage.

Looks like a fantastic tourney once again, GK.

Initial favourite, I think, would be Ounce. Looks like quite good, even though the hammers are only the 30kg variety.

And I seem to have drawn R0B0 here as well as BBEANS.

SD, tomorrow. I've gotta go.

FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-- (vs. JoeBlo)

I'll probably be screwed after Round 1. I mean, a bye for the Reigning Champion? Come on

But as long as I beat Jonzu, I'm happy, and I can be eliminated safe in the knowledge that I achieved my main aim, and lost to one of the best

NFX · « **Reply #10 on:** July 11, 2010, 05:00:31 PM »

He is the reigning champ. Sometimes you get a good draw, sometimes you don't.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #11 on:** July 11, 2010, 05:18:03 PM »

Suppose. But then again, it happened to me in n00b Warz 3 (When Jack Daniels was champion with Rust Monster), and I was able to put up a fight before eventually beating him (And unfortunately myself in the process

), so if I can get randomly lucky and knock off one of the hammers and prevent him moving, I could get him.

Will probably lose though

Hopefully the walls arenâ€™t too low for Magmatic to be tossed out of the arena from the initial charge. Even if they arenâ€™t I donâ€™t see myself being able to hold on to my championship title.

Round 1 Predictions:

Stealth Destroyer 2 over Minimus â€“ Even with a long singular wedge Iâ€™m not sure if itâ€™s going to help against a VS like that. That is still one of the coolest looking drums Iâ€™ve seen though.

Son of MSHD over Hurricane â€“ Hurricane doesnâ€™t look like it can get that shell up to speed by the time SOMSHD is hammering at it. Still Son of MSHD needs to keep it pinned otherwise it will risk losing its armor and having the vulnerable parts exposed.

Drumbayotch over Flipperization â€“ 36 batteries?!? Still it clearly has the better wedge here, but the flipper is faster so if it can escape the drum then it might be able to get under it and flip it out of the arena.

Dr. Spin II, S.D. over Forgot the Food â€“ Dr. Spin just looks like it has the better wedge, and thatâ€™s about it.

2 Vroom or Not to Vroom over BLT (lol @ acronym) â€“ Another battle of the wedges. Vroomâ€™s speed will help it here, but if itâ€™s too fast then I could see it going the other way around.

Renal Calculi over Please Re-Enter Bot Name â€“ Renal Calculi looks to have the better wedge, and even if dual HSs are more stable than single HSs, I can still see PRBN going out of the arena very quickly.

WiLd cUbE: VENGEANCE over Whiplash Recoil â€“ So many wedges... Wild Cube might have the better one, but Whiplash Recoil looks like it has a good wedge as well; it could go either way.

Doom Donker over OverOverkill â€“ Doom Donker just has the better weapons here. If OverOverkill can get underneath its opponent and deal enough damage to the disk, then it can win via immobilization, otherwise the odds are against it.

Crown of Flames over Stiletto Violence â€“ You just HAD to give it a wedge didnâ€™t you JoeBlo. Even if it does have the better wedge, I donâ€™t think it can remain under its opponent long enough for it to tear off its wedge. Crown of Flames just looks like it has a lot of chances to get under its opponent.

Do you really think so Ounce? I'm quite flattered! And good luck against me in your first fight if I do qualify. I have a gut feeling that you might be able to whittle down Son of MSHD's health if it's not careful though.

Yeah, I never was good at wedges. I need to learn how to make good ones.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #15 on:** July 11, 2010, 06:42:33 PM »

Anyway Hydro, what do you think of Son of MSHD?

NFX · « **Reply #16 on:** July 11, 2010, 06:46:23 PM »

It looks like it could do some damage...big question is, is it actually invertible?

It is. Took a bit of adjusting to get it that way, mind you

NFX · « **Reply #18 on:** July 11, 2010, 08:22:26 PM »

Ah, that's good. Just from the splash, the tite halfsheets on the top seem to cover the top part of the wheels.

I think TG did a great job with Ring of Fire.
