SPLASHSBVCongratulations to the winner
I mean it sincerely when i say everyone did great and made it really enjoyable to host. I appreciate everyone being respectful and very timely and would love to host another at some point in the future, but unfortunately have no idea when that will be. Up in the air if it's MW or LW. Maybe a Nova instead.
That being said, it's time to give out some awards to recognize the achievements of those you think deserve it. The categories are:
BEST DRIVER for who had the most driving skill, using their bot and the arena to their advantage the best.
BEST DESIGN for the most efficient, well constructed build.
INNOVATIVE DESIGN for which design pushed the limits of building and can inspire the building of others in ways maybe not considered before.
BEST NEWCOMER (RedAce, Code Red, Reier,
UberPyro) for who you think the best newbie was by attitude, performance, etc.
BEST MOMENT for your favorite moment from a match.
C&P:
BEST DRIVER
BEST DESIGN
INNOVATIVE DESIGN
BEST NEWCOMER
BEST MOMENT
My votes:
BEST DRIVER RedAce. He did the best overall. rest in peace lightning s
BEST DESIGN Hell March. Great overall bot even though it's not super original. The sloped sides and low center of gravity helped a lot.
INNOVATIVE DESIGN Moldy Sponge without question. It really took everyone off guard how potent this goofy thing was. I unironically think people can learn a lot from this bot, it is a design that would absolutely suck in AI and it got runner up. PvP changes what is good. Take notes.
BEST NEWCOMER RedAce obviously gets points for winning the thing and being a fantastic driver, but I gotta give points to Code for his insane bot that very nearly won and took out a lot of tough competition.
BEST MOMENT Moldy Sponge just dark horse annihilating the reigning champion. Honorable mention when Code lost his plow in the final and allowed himself to escape immobility.
Competitors are encouraged to vote, but you may not vote for yourself. Voting closes in one week, 10/19.
Congrats to everyone involved!
