BTTB 4 - Splash, Brackets and Videos

[Scrap Daddy]

ridiculously awesome disc skin is ridiculously awesome.

not sure about my matchup with NFX. I do have the potters discs and could take out his panels, but theres plastic or titanium 1 under them.

and was my bot not rebuilt?

[G.K.]

Whoever had your bot pulled out.

[G.K.]

DP: Right Ho, I'll have a match up very soon.

However, youtube is now unuseable for me, no clue why, but I can't really do anything, so I'll have to stick with Dailymotion. A link to the videos like I introduced later in BTTB 3 will be up.

[G.K.]

SB vs JD is up. I apologise for the seizeup in the middle of the first match.

[ianh05]

lol there goes my favourite bot in the tourney >.<

[Jack Daniels]

Ouch! hahah! Good match Somebody. Wedgefail on my behalf. Sorry to disappoint Ian. XD

Predictions !

Popit: A popup with trapping elements like that is kinda pointless... but not bad overall.
Altifood12398672969163865913: I have a feeling Powerrave is attempting to troll us predicters with such a long name. Anyways it is very messy for a popup. Doubt this will go far.
Uncommon Cold: It looks decent but I'm not sure about the weapon setup, is that a bunch of razors on a small JX ?. Still, a refreshing change from a builder that usually seems to care nothing about the quality of his bots.
Epic Wave Swinger: Doesn't look "Epic" to me at all... yeah it's not horrible but still
Rusted Syringe: Another failure. Probably going to end OOTA soon.
Trifecta: I don't get why Hydro is so eager to enter crap in tournaments ???
Lighter Shades of Grey: Looks decent, though a bit messy
Baguenaudez Près De Ca!: Je ne pense pas que les robots vont baguenauder près de ca, mais plutôt charger droit dedans...
Death Excavator: Better than Enigma's VERY average rammer, but still OOTA galore.
Flying Monster: Probably going to be shredded to bits by the more combat-efficient bots. Yes, it is original, but 8 razors and 8 beaters only ???
Red Hot Lava: TOTALLY is not another of KM's shamefully average flippers.
Evolve or be spun everywhere: Yet again, GRW enters sh** in a tournament.
As If I Give A Flying Melon: Looks good, if kinda generic
Poke-A-Bot: Another good bot.
Bear Trap: It should own as long as it stays in the arena.
Shaver BXXXXX: lol the VS is totally useless
Hidden Strike: Looks good, but I question the use of the side plows.
Press This Bot To Be Eaten: That's not decent building, that's just BAD building right there. Fail weapon, fail drive and no wedge on a design that benefits from one. "Press This Bot And Eat It" would have been more appropriate.
Table Eater: I don't get why you guys put weapons on top of your shell srimechs ? Looks decent overall.
A-Bomb: Average popup.
Block From Hell: It is quite messy but then again it's the design.
Turbine: Jugglers like that often fail...
Seeing Stars: Just like scrap. If this stays in the arena, it's going to trash it's opponents. If not...
Insignificant: Bots built for the rule of cool, while aesthetically pleasing, tend to do POORLY in fighting tournaments.
Shovel Headed Blockbuster: Looks pretty good. The razors don't have much reach though.
Macro Vulcan: Gay flipper
Bot That Must Not Be Named: Unsurprisingly looks very stockish. Probably good, maybe not the best popup though.
Disc of Doom and Gloom: NOT going to win this time
Fit This In Your Purse, Ben: Awful weapon setup. But then, I have the feeling Craaig built this out of spite.
Crush, Kill, Destroy: It probably isn't very good. I was trying a more popup-ish approach but it failed.
Game Over: MMMMMMEEEEEEESSSSSSYYYYYYY

Best bots: Pwn, Scrap, and others DoW.

Agh I can't watch the video...too many ads

[Squirrel_Monkey]

Uncommon Cold: It looks decent but I'm not sure about the weapon setup, is that a bunch of razors on a small JX ?. Still, a refreshing change from a builder that usually seems to care nothing about the quality of his bots.
I've seen it in action, it had 10 razors on 2 BSGs and the JX as a separate srimech (as in the rules)
Flying Monster: Probably going to be shredded to bits by the more combat-efficient bots. Yes, it is original, but 8 razors and 8 beaters only ???
And 8 LDS teeth :P

[ianh05]

Agh I can't watch the video...too many ads

get the noscript addon for firefox :)

[Reier]

Bleh Firefox

[ianh05]

might be something like it out there for other browsers or maybe they have a version of noscript for other browsers.

Game Over: MMMMMMEEEEEEESSSSSSYYYYYYY

Use a super simple setup though :P

[The Ounce]

A bit late, but I'll do predictions anyway:

Popit: Interesting armor setup there, but I wonder if it can self-right.

Altifood: Wedge looks pretty steep and the stance it pretty narrow; I don't see it doing very well.

Uncommon Cold: Interesting... weapon doesn't seem so good though.

Epic Wave Swinger: I sort of like this, but I'm not too sure about that wedge.

Rusty Syringe: ...

Trifecta: lolwut

Lighter Shades of Dark Grey: Generally this design doesn't perform well against other wedges, and seeing how wedges make up 2/3 of the competition, this will not fare well.  The weapon still looks deadly.

Baguenaudez  Près De Ça!: Looks pretty fragile, but still well-built.

Death Excavator: A rammer in a tournament full of popups won't last long, but apart from that it's very well built.

Flying Monster: It's pretty cool looking and might pose a threat to most of the wedges here, but against anything else... meh.

Red Hot Lava: Looks like a very good flipper, albeit a bit slow and with a very exposed chassis.

Evolve Or Be Spun Everywhere: That thing's not going to de-weapon anything but if it spins fast enough it just might beat one of the many wedges.

As If I Give A Flying Melon: Popup?  Looks very well armored either way.

Poke-A-Bot: Strangely one of my favorite bots here, but I'm not sure about the wedges.

Bear Trap: Looks very deadly, just might take the championship.

Shaver BXXXXX: Apart from maybe the weapons it doesn't look very good IMO.

Hidden Strike: Not sure how many weapons it's packing, but the armor looks pretty tough.

Press This Bot To Be Eaten: I can only see other bots eating IT really.

Table Eater: Decent shell spinner, nothing more.

A-Bomb: Good looks and possibly good wedges too, I see this doing well.

Block From Hell: Decent VS, good weapons, good armor, poor-looking wedges.

Turbine: Very deadly looking FS/juggler.  Another one of my picks to win the tournament.

Seeing Stars: I'm surprised this design performs so well.  However its success here depends on whether or not it gets shoved around easily.

insignificant: Name describes it pretty well.  Not as good as Epic Wave Swinger, but at least it has more armor than it.

Shovel-Headed Blockbuster: Looks like a very good popup, if a bit narrow.

Macro Vulcan: Effective looking flipper; I think it will do very well.

Bot That Must Not Be Named: Unlike what Sage said I think it has the potential to do well here. Sorta unique looking too.

Disc of Doom and Gloom: AKA Last Minute Piece of sh**.  It might beat some opponents, but more than likely history will repeat itself and it'll just get shoved out of the arena.

Fit This In Your Purse, Ben: lol, but really I can't see it winning.

Crush, Kill, Destroy: The hammers don't look too deadly, but it still looks decent.

Game Over: For some reason I don't see this faring well.

[G.K.]

Sage vs KM is up

[G.K.]

DP:

So's Yoda vs 090901.
