yes after your bot posted a 31 sec time being bumped down to fifth position was a bad thing to happen to a person in this tournament

Naryar · « **Reply #3 on:** April 29, 2009, 08:18:28 AM »

CUBINATOR IS FIRST ?? What the

?? Nothing against Ian, but it's far from being the fastest bot here...

Oh well. I'm second so it's fine.

Predictions:

Cube Tank VS SnSnSnS: See NOS-BOT VS Haymaker. Probably a long match but packed with destruction, though Somebody probably won't KO Hydro's bot.

CNADNAC VS BBB: Yawn fest. As far from my experience goes, sit and spinners like that aren't very good against shell spinners, especially with weapons with normals. My fav to win is Urjak, but i'm not sure. We'll see.

Bushido's Beyatch VS AGTFOS: Another yawner. Phil's bot is probably better. And weapons with normals are not as good than other weapons in DSL, because all of them are balanced in DSL.

Gray Matter VS LANBFM: Most of the time VS dominate rammers, but Gray Matter might break one of it's rammers on Man Manu's spikes, and Mako clones don't like fast hinged wedges. My favorite to win is Pwnator, but we'll see...

EDIT: I have reasons to believe that you won't win that tourney SB.

PREDICTIONS!

Round 1
Cube Tank vs. SnSnSnSnS
Winner: SnSnSnSnS

CUBE not a disk... vs. Big Bad Brother
Winner: CUBE not a disk... i do not think it will be so close

LOL another nub bot... vs. Grey Matter
Winner: Grey Matter

Bushido's Beyatch vs. Awful red thing fos
Winner: Awful red thing fos ... but even if Bushido is not a killer bot, i do not think ARTFOS is adapted
to this kind of bot ... bushido may win

ROUND 2

SnSnSnSnS vs. Cubinator
Winner: SnSnSnSnS

CUBE not a disk... vs. Afterburner 2
Winner: Afterburner 2, because afer burner is a very speedy bot, otherwhise CNAD is a good bot

Smash Down vs. Awful red thing fos
Winner: Awful red thing fos -> artfos should quickly lost a wheel, but Smash down will soon have no more weapon -> win by points.

XenoPhobik III vs. Grey Matter
Winner: Grey Matter, but i will be happy to follow tis match, does the prevision about the saw bmlade effect on wedge will be effective ?

ROUND 3
Grey Matter vs. Awful red thing fos
Winner: Awful red thing fos -> once Grey matter will have lost a hammer and become instable, ARTFOS should rake it from behind ...
or AFRTFOS should lost it two wheels and end up immobile :-(

SnSnSnSnS vs. Afterburner 2
Winner: SnSnSnSnS ... close match

Final

SnSnSnSnS vs. Awful red thing fos
Winner: SnSnSnSnS

SnSnSnSnS takes the championship

Naryar · « **Reply #8 on:** April 29, 2009, 10:03:32 AM »

What the

is a full body rammer ? Afterburner 2 is a wedged rammer ! And yup, weakness is exposed wheels.

Nice vids anyways. Looking for more !

I call SnSnSnS for most fearsome opponent, and obviously mine for Best Built.

Condor33 · « **Reply #9 on:** April 29, 2009, 04:38:03 PM »

SnSnSnS scares me. I hope I don't end up fighting him. Also, will there be a loser's bracket?

The fights will be one round only, no best out of…. Winner moves on

I take that as, no losers bracet.

Hydro · « **Reply #11 on:** April 29, 2009, 06:24:46 PM »

so it would seem...

Somebody · « **Reply #12 on:** April 29, 2009, 06:44:23 PM »

SnSnSnSnS's biggest weakness is having trouble self-righting, but it still spins upside down anyways :-D

JoeBlo · « **Reply #13 on:** April 30, 2009, 03:56:56 AM »

@ Naryar: storm 2 was referred as a full body rammer/ hammer because it didnt just ram opponents it sent them backward with a good amount of force which is why I put that as your weapon rather then 6 razor blades (or what ever there called) I can remake the stat screen for you if you want something different for weapon

no plans for a loser bracket but there may be a losers rumble out of the 4 eliminated first round to go along side the Encore rumble (the one with CFTW and Little Cube) that way each bot will get at least 2 matches and will fill up the tournament a bit more since there is only 12 bots rather then the normal 16

phew sorry about the novel I just wrote but I hope that answers everyones questions

Naryar · « **Reply #14 on:** April 30, 2009, 04:03:18 AM »

Storm 2 was originally a wedged rammer, and was made a poker hybrid after...

Mine is a pusher.

that was the type of bot, but if you looked at its weapon for series 7 (heats) and extreme 2 (new blood finals) it was full body hammer

Link

but anyway did you want me to remake the stats screen for your robot ?

Naryar · « **Reply #16 on:** April 30, 2009, 05:50:07 AM »

That is the weird Robot Wars classification and it makes no sense to me. For me, hammer = active burst motor, piston-powered weapon = poker and a full body thing is a either a drum (Barberous), either a FBS (Y-Pout, Why-Not)

Mine has just static spikes and drive for weapon, and a wedge, so is a wedged rammer, but with pusher tactics.

And yes please, you could remake that stat screen, but it if takes a lot of time don't bother... just put 14 spike strips.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #17 on:** April 30, 2009, 07:05:34 AM »

ok does anyone else have a stat screen issue (only if its a fairly descent issue) and I will remake it, I would prefer to do only the two I have to do know but if something is unsettling someone let me know (urjak don't worry about your bots picture I'm working on an updated one now)

Naryar · « **Reply #18 on:** April 30, 2009, 07:16:47 AM »

Well, SnSnSnS and R1885's popup, while being good bots, have weaknesses... glaring ones IMO. I'll say fragile structure / low armor for SnSnSnS and fragile weapons for the popup.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #19 on:** April 30, 2009, 07:27:31 AM »

changes are going to be as of round 2 as some round 1 videos are getting real close to the uploading stage (fast huh?)

Edit: for R1885 is was going to put the fact it had a sremech which tipped it over to one side which could have troubles if against a wall that side but it was to big to fit so I left it as unknown, somebody's bot I did think about fragile but It really looks like nothing can get past those tribars
