Gah, why do all my possible matchups have to be so damn hard :ermm:
Well, other than t4er, but even then his bot isn't dreadful.

PREDICTIONS

Popit: Needs a better weapon setup but other than that it's not bad.
Altifood: Another decent popup.
Uncommon Cold: Another popup?? Damn.
Epic Wave Swinger: I doubt 16 maces is enough for a HW...
Rusty Syringe: SFTW. Has about half of the required HW ramming spikes.
Trifecta: The other SFTW. I can't see those rear saws doing much, and 1 sawblade is like having a weapon for 10 seconds in the HW division. And horizontal sawblades suck.
LSoDG: Its wedge is pwnage. That's all I'll say...
*french name*: WHY SO MANY DAMN POPUPS I mean it looks OK.
Death Excavator: This looks sick. Dunno how it would fate against all the popups here...
Flying Monster: Looks kewl. Those perms look hecka exposed though...
Red Hot Lava: Lol it's a Havok bot in disguise. If it's wedges are good it should do OK.
EoBSE: SFTW, 6 maces is barely enough for a LW nowadays
AIIGAFM: GOD DAMMIT STOP IT WITH ALL THE EFFING POPUPS (Another nice bot)
Poke-a-bot: Looks kool and Valid Query-ish. Should go far.
Bear Trap: WOAH THAT LOOKS EPIC. I want this thing to win the whole tourney. Also what's with the disc skin?
Shaver BXXXX: Looks OK...
Hidden Strike: Lots of armor. Should fare well.
Press This Bot to Be Eaten: Inefficient drive (and Mag snappers suck). I dunno if this one will really do anything...
Table Eater: *shudders*
A-Bomb- Is this just Son of MSHD with different weapons? Looks like it... It should do OK.
Block from Hell: Looks OK, but that wedge doesn't look good though..
Turbine: Looks good.
Seeing Stars: WHY DID I HAVE TO FIGHT THIS?!
Insignificant: Besides the good looks, I can't see much win in this bot. Sorry Jack.
Shovel Headed BB: ANOTHER EFFING POPUP (that looks good)
Macro Vulcan: If the wedges are good I expect a few bots to be going weeeee! XP
BTMNBN: DSL NOOBOT LOL (it looks sick. This should do crazily well)
DoDaG: Looks neat. Should do OK.
FTIYP,B: Is that really enough weapons? Are they stacked somehow?
Crush, kill, Destroy: Looks OK, IDK how effective the hammers will be however..
Game Over: Not a bad build, 090901. I expect this thing to win at least once.

Thanks. It is quite simular to Son of MSHD I'll give you that, but it's got stronger external armour, and is slightly more reliable, with more batteries and air tanks. That, and the new wedge trapping capabilities the spikes and teeth give it.
 
I also recieved another poker to build, so I figured that a simular low, invertible four-wheel drive design with some relatively new elements was the way to go.

I made that image ages ago, thought it'd look good on the DSL disc, and then cba to get rid of it.

Vids later today maybe.

Yeah.

It is Havok 19 in disguise to be precise.

If I could re-do my bot I would send Havok 23 (Latest). But H19 is still good damnit!

My bot is older  :p

Macro Vulcan has minor changes from Hawk 3. New battery setup, shorter skirts for flipping, technos instead of hypnos, and the extra armor.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time
