Starcore AW's vs Stock Mini's

[ianh05]

I enjoy these AI pack vs AI pack display tournaments and decided it was time for some AW battles :) I will be posting videos of the matches.


Here are the brackets (shuffled randomly, then sorted so that each match in round 1 had a bot from each pack):

Final result brackets:

[Mr. AS]

riptide or backyard ripper to win

In a perfect world they would meet in the final :P

[ianh05]

Round 1 is up :)

Some impressive victories and some surprising results.
Still all even with each AI pack having 8 bots out of 12 left in the tournament.

Round 2 is up! updated brackets have been updated to show round 2 results/round 3 match-ups.

2-3 surprises including one incredibly fluky win

[ianh05]

Quarter finals are up :D there are some great matches in this tournament! I won't be updating the brackets again until I post the final.

Semi finals and final are up along with the final result bracket. Pretty entertaining for a stock AW tournament imo :)

[Mr. AS]

wait, halt who goes there beat riptide ? O_O

[ianh05]

Indeed, "halt who goes there?" is a thwack-bot though :)

Hey, you used the Mini Combat Zone and matches out of 1! :D I think you made the right call on the 2:00 time limit, too. I'd say the match settings you used are perfect for antweights.

Round 1 was pretty fun to watch. Expendable Automaton and Riptide had their moments. Logic Probe scares me. o.o
Round 2 wasn't as fun. I was surprised that neither bot lost any weapons between Expendable Automaton and Vorpal Bunny. And how the did Billy Goat get to Minesweeper's chassis? Also, Riptide.
Quarters, I lol'd at Billy Goat's chassis getting really pummeled.
Semis, Halt vs. Flaming Whizzer was more intense than I expected!
Final was predictable, you know, moar razors wins.

how the did Billy Goat get to Minesweeper's chassis?
Minesweeper has it's disc axle loaded through part of the chassis.

Semis, Halt vs. Flaming Whizzer was more intense than I expected!
A lot of the matches in the tournament where great for AW matches. I loved how Wisk Broom knocked of IBK's weapon rack with it's last remaining razor lol.

Final was predictable, you know, moar razors wins.
I thought it was rather close with wisk broom almost getting a KO, plus it's rammer vs HS and the rammer usually has the advantage in that match-up (in the AW division anyway).
