Ok, i'm re-writing my post...

Dark Matter:
-Obvious mako clone. Decently built, but i don't see it as a dangerous bot. Yes Mako wedges are outdated. Will get shredded by the heavy spinners.

TTM/D:
-A solid multibot, really well built. One of the things that really scares me. Most likely will get raped by the heavy spinners... but can it pull off a Hum-Drums ?

Please Die:
Won't really work well because of unstability and exposed drive.  Wedge is nearly insignificant.

Super SnSnS:
-GHEEEEYYYY but efficient. If it gets OOTA, the judge's decision will still make it lose even if it's not technically eliminated...

Total Controversy:
-Cool looking and a nice wedge, but not very dangerous as i see it. Not powerful enough to do real damage or flip it's opponent OOTA.

Shinigami:
-Cool, but the front isn't armored enough and bear claws fail as well (Normals).

Xenophobik Ressurketion:
-Destroyer clone. Will most likely pull an Archimandrite V on a big hit. Might get wins against shell spinners though.

Hypercube 2:
-Not bad for a noob. Not invertible and no way to self right however...

Cube of Pure Evil:
-Another cool bot that won't get very far because any good gut ripper will rape it.

Grindhouse:
-Too slow to be a really good gut ripper, and will most likely get shredded by the heavier HS. It's still a good bot though.

MBTF:
-SFTW. Exposed chassis, random weapons, and ugly as well...

Lament Configuration:
-Wedges will fail - i know it because of the design. Drive could be better - best name of all the bots, though.

Head Chef:
-Most likely the best shell spinner out there. No bottom armor however... and not that powerful with a shell that heavy.

Hellish Charm:
-I think we all know Urjak's skill with flail spinners. Beware of this one...

Exponential Decay:
-Ass load of razors here... AND of axles, means stupid havok fest. Not badly built though, as well as a sweet name.

Sky High:
-That bot has AIDS because it is even more unstable than Destroyer. Failed against 2 tiny cubes and nearly got OOTA.

Timber:
-Unoriginal name... It's a shell spinner killer and there are a ton (literally) of shell in that tournament... Will get raped by any decent gut ripper though.

Faaip de Oiad:Aaaand... R0B0 enters AGAIN a popup in a DSL tourney !!! There's too much defense and not enough razors into that popup to make it a real killer. That's still a solid popup. We'll see how it fares.

GTFO ME: Unoriginal name and Daisy Might clone. It's not a complete failure, but seeing from the qualifications, it looks like it's really unstable... again, gut ripper bait.

Blade Wave: An attempt to mix cool looks, combat efficiency and originality. It pretty much succeeded, but it's not a killer. It gut-rips pretty slow as well...

Scramjet: I think someone said this before me, but this is basically a largely improved BrasOuvert. It will own as long at it keeps facing horizontal spinners. Possible champion for me.

Bob&Bill: Weak competitor. I can't see it winning matches.

Destiny: Not a very good name again... It's decently good, but would have been better with Techno's and more weapons.

Mammoth: I was going to make a bot named Mammoth for PREHISTORIC's Bot5... guess i have to change the name now :/ Well it's pretty nice. Anti-gut-ripping bot (R0B0 beware), but i's not powerful enough to threaten the legion the shell spinners.

LiNcK vs Urjak
Winner - LiNcK
LiNcK got a really good draw here. Even though Urjak's bot is better built, GTFO Me just has more weaponry. Barring any Daisy-Might-esque disk failures, Urjak's just going to get worn down.


I will be worn down eventually, but the time will go out before than, and I think the Vlad spikes do more damage than the hammers so I do not know how this will go.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

You forget that Urjee's Spikes are longer & lower than Linck's. He might be able to hit his chassis.

Mammoth needs an arena that doesnt have flippers and pits everywhere. Too bad.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

About Urjak and LiNck- LiNcK out-weapons Urjak, BUT i am confident Urjak's weapons are much more damaging (not only with the DPs, but with the flails as well)..

dont know if tournament hosts usually do this but I want to join in... my picks

Somebody > Condor33

could go either way as Xenophobik's hammers are lower then SnS's but I think it will get toppled by SnS

Pwnator > Trumpetguy

people were saying the wedges are out dated but there better then an unwedged bot

Scrap Daddy > System32

I really couldnt pick this one, sure scrap has more weaponry but Head Chef also has to be the one making the moves

Urjak > LiNcK

the vlad spikes being on flails rather then static would mean they could get under the yawning ground clearance, also GTFO me has to make the move.

MikeNCR > Craaig

I dont know if Grindhouse will reach the chassis, and if you watch qualifying you would know pitting it out of the question, I would say the wheels would go however

SSG > Russian Roulette

One thing is for sure... its going to be a slow few matchs, cant really pick this one but SSG's bot cant be pitted which may be a deciding factor

H@z47 > RedlineM203

reds bot is one of may favorites in this tournament but H@z47 has basically 0 ground clearance so I suspect a wedge feast

R1885 > Flyig_Chao

could go either way, Please Die is either going to ram Sky High causing a front flip or go right up the wedge into the blade.

just a heads up on the format for the battle if you haven't caught it

2/3 matches each going for 2 min

if one bot wins 2 straight there will be no 3rd match

starting positions a randomly selected (either near the flipper or near the pit)

after the first battle the positions are swapped for the second

then swapped back for the 3rd (if applicable)



Somebody vs Condor33 will be up soon

Yup, But if his spikes hit my hammers that means my hammers also hit his spikes, Soo.. Its about the HP?

Also, GTFO Me sometimes looses control like in the start of the Qualifying Matches, and all the frontal part gets exposed... This happens only for several seconds tough ;P

ok first match is now up Xenophobik Resurrektion vs Super SnS

review is also up and will update the rankings really soon

Edit: sorry for the typo H@zm47 lol shouldn't be anywhere else

Woo! My internet got fixed so I've only just been able to see the qualifying. Can't believe I won. I thought I'd get top 6 but I didn't think I'd win. I know I'm not going to do great in fights but still, they are cute. Hoping for one win.
