lmao the act of charizarding has already won this

Props to Badger's VS setup, though. Think I might steal that.

I am not so good at DSL.

But my entrie can do this.

I'm against two VS and Wen in my first heat. Feeling decent about it at the moment.

Might as well give my opinion of the 'bots.
Rabid: It certainly looks dangerous. If it can trap a 'bot, it'll win, though wedges could be a problem for it.
Friendly: Again, pretty dangerous. Its awkward shape might hinder it as it looks to have a bit of ground clearance.
Deformed Orange: If that weapon can spin up to full speed, I think it will kill off some robots, but instability after a weapon goes could kill it.
Tekno Destroyer V2: My biggest fear is that it lacks weaponry. It also doesn't help that its extender work is very exposed.
JUNOU JUNOU JUNOU: It's certainly oriented for defense and definitely looks cool, but offense could be another story altogether.
Guy Jean: It looks interesting, being a side hammer/top hammer hybrid, but power could drain too quickly.
Fresh! Sans!: It's using 2 separate burst motors which could hinder its progress, but it has good defense and seems rather agile.
Inspiration Zero 2: It's quite stall-oriented, which could help it. However, the lack of a wedge could be a danger against plowtraps and flywheels.
Nide Day Seven Wow sans: Errr... it's unique? It looks like it won't go too far, I feel.
EDGY BAND NAME: I think it has the potential to do well, but it could be easily attacked by other VS'es.
Fjunkester 2: I quite like the lexan frame, but other than that, it could have problems in the rumbles.
Transmutation: I'm not too sure if 2 flywheels on a perm 132 is better than 2 on separate perm 80's. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
Crash Test: The weapon is absolutely vicious, but that's it. It looks like a glass cannon and it's slow to boot.
Tempest: The only treaded 'bot looks quite cool, but I fear the drum-esque weapon won't do much. It is the best designed 'bot of the lot, though.
THE ACT OF CHARIZARDING: Probably the one that could go all the way. It's well armoured, has a powerful weapon and is wedgy.
Mechavore-arephilia: Interesting that my 'bot is last in the list. I hope the anti-plowtrap will do okay, but it is one of the most fragile 'bots, unfortunately. I just hope the weapons are enough to keep others at bay.

Wat? It's all 1v1s, no rumbles

Having two perm 80's instead of one Perm 132 would make the discs 1.5X faster.

Oh, whoops. I looked at the groupings and just assumed that they were rumbles. Guess its because I am a bit of an eejit. :P

I feel like a 20 minute video at once wasn't the best way to do it, rather big and I doubt people will talk much about single matches.

what parts does JUNO JUNO JUNO use? I haven't messed around too much with DSL but that thing looked really strong until it sadly lost the drive(also those parts seem to clip the chassis but that's alright by the rules)

bots stoppping at 3:56 and somewhat at 10:53, why does that happen with the AI?

Was I the only one who wanted to see that pushing match?

Should've invested more in high HP weapons. Originally wanted to have hammers but then thought they were overkill(and too heavy)it actually looked good until the icepick was lost and once the wheel was gone it was clear that this won't end well.
Oh come on, why did the srimech not fire when it was on it's side like that.

Thrack's rammer is looking good, got wedge nicely under wen's bot so that the hammer wouldn't hit the rather weak armor. Nice how both of them got overturned with that ram, doesn't look like Thrack's has armor under the bot?
Wish that my bot flipped Craaig's bot like Thrack did here, really strong bot and reminds me of a Ironforge entry

My bot was doing surprisingly well against Wen's, worried that the hammer was going to take off parts, but it throwed the bot around nicely. A bit annoying that my bot hit it right as the 10 second countdown started, which reset it again. Made a mess out of Wen's bot until the icepick flew off, really needed more testing with that bot.

Doesn't help that this was like the second version that was sent in with "I'll ai it later and update it", don't think it even fully uses the weight.
Rematch against Craaig, hey this is similar to the last time I entered a tournament from Badger, same tiebreaker round as the first one.
Beginning was going good, my bot somehow landing on the back side and damaging stuff, however then the spinners met and a ice pick flew off, only went downhill from there, wheel+drive motor knocked out(Nightmare Style) and then lost like half the bot on the other hit.

Was my bot one of the only ones to have a proper way to self right? Redace's was really having trouble there. And Havok Bomb, just to have the drum taken off in the first few minutes of the match. And the typical DSL crash... well at least we got to see your PC, let's see what you have.
Chrome, Twitch? Eww, switch to Hitbox instead, Origin, PuTTY, a Windows Commandline, Skype, Spotify, Discord, 7zip(why would you have that open while playing games?) Steam (no uplay and no drm free ones?), Task Manager, a video editing software, Notepad++, RA2 DSL 2.2.exe and the lovely crash window.

Guess Redace got the win because there was no chance for the other bot to score points. If the drum didn't break it could've been a close match. No wait, a different setup was picked just because of it. Oh man.

FrieNdly surprisingly won that in a odd way.

Guy Jean makes quick work of Tempest as well as Edgy Band name, that thing just eats bots alive as if they were a small snack.

Wait, how did Guy Gean get second with only two battles?

16:12 why was that battle stopped? Sure it would've been a boring one but someone would've still won by points. DemonOfTomorrow got screwed out of winning here.

After a disappointing start the Hammer Rammer did get to show how durable it is.
