EPIC DOUBLE ELIM
And nice pirouettes NFX

[The Ounce]

HOLY CARP
 
I JUST REALIZED THAT REFLECTION LOST A WHEEL WAY BACK IN ROUND 4
 
AND IT'S BEEN FIGHTING WITH 3 WHEELS EVER SINCE
 
AND NO ONE HAS EVEN NOTICED INCLUDING THE OUNCE
 
I just noticed myself after I finished putting the round 6 video together and reviewing it for errors.  Ounce will be happy to know I fixed the problem (gave ReFlection 4 wheels and took away a spare) and re-filmed its round 6 fight.  I can't really re-film its round 5 fight at this point though.

I knew I lost a part back in round 4 but I couldn't figure out what it was.  Thanks for clearing that up.  Shame though because I probably would still have perfect wins if it weren't for that mistake.

Anyway:

Woo, my first elimination!  Now, my next opponent is one I would choose not to face, but I'd still rather fight this than some others.

Quite an exciting round this time.  I'd never thought BlackVein could pull that off.  Never thought I'd see a double elimination either.

Round 7:

Voulez-Vous > BlackVein -  It's pretty close, but V-V looks like the more stable of the two.
Unexpected Nightmare < ReFlection - With only 3 wheels remaining, Unexpected Nightmare shouldn't be hard to flank.  Hopefully I can get to its "good side" for another elimination.
Stratocaster < Speedy DX - With most of its weapons and wheels missing, I don't see how Stratocaster can fend off Speedy DX.
Supernovae 2.1 > Rider On The Storm - Even though Supernovae is missing quite a few weapons, it's still more than capable of doing major damage to Rider On The Storm.
Trollestia 2 < Grinding Noise - Trollestia has been doing a good job of avoiding damage so far, but I don't see how it can avoid taking damage from Grinding Noise.
Your Best Frenemy > Triceratops - I don't know why, but I feel Triceratops will have trouble getting underneath YBF.
Frag Beetle 2.1 < X-Press - Because X-Press at least still has a wedge extender.
The Beast > Revolutions Per Minute - I don't care if RPM has the weapon advantage, that AI change has done it more harm than good.
Blood Shed < One Way Ticket - Blood Shed doesn't even have 25% of its weapons for crying out loud.
Effing Stock > Golden Sun - Not sure if Effing Stock is going to eliminate it however.

I knew you lost something too but I thought it was a mace.  Better check any component ID's I'm not sure of from now on to make sure what they are.

[Sage]

 I hate spikes with a burning passion.

[Virus Bomb]

How the is my bot still in this O_o, it looks silly out there with only two irons.


also, LOL @ Vertigo and 090901

[Conraaa]

I'm against Blackvein?
Oh dear.

[G.K.]

lol @Vert/090901

Impressed by Conraa all the way through so far

I will be screwed against Supernovae

[Naryar]

Lol at that double elimination. Also Ribbs is just a rammer now, maybe i'll have my revenge.

Predictions

Round 6 Winners:
Voulez-Vous > BlackVein - A wedge war at this point ? However, Voulez-Vous is stable, unlike BlackVein at this point.
Unexpected Nightmare < ReFlection - ReFlection has just more and better weapons.
Stratocaster < Speedy DX - Strato just doesn't have enough speed to win. Bet he'll lose a few wheels or something.
Supernovae 2.1 < Rider On The Storm - Supernovae has lost so many weapons it's just too unstable. It'll probably spend most of it's time going spikeball while ROTS attacks.
Trollestia 2 > Grinding Noise - Well, it's a popup-ish against a rammer. Yeah, mine's not doing as well as it was supposed to fair against rammers, but still...
Your Best Frenemy < Triceratops : Seeing how YBF has a Dark July tendancy to stand on it's weapons... Triceratops might lose it's wedge though.

Round 6 Losers:
Frag Beetle 2.1 > X-Press : Frag Beetle will probably lose it's extender, but FB has much more damaging potential than X-Press, which is now a simple rammer.
The Beast < Revolutions Per Minute: The Beast just doesn't have the weapons to compete anymore. Or maybe it will just spend even more time hugging the spikes, and RPM will spend even more time flying in the air.
Blood Shed < One Way Ticket: Time to lose even more weapons, Blood Shed...
Effing Stock > Golden Sun: Another round of pause for Freeziez. Just eliminate him already.

Plutonium - I don't get why is this still alive, I thought you eliminated bots with no wheel spares and only one wheel left click ?

[NFX]

I'm not sure why I went all havoky that time. I thought it was only against wedges that I did that. Hopefully I can take off some of Sage's weapons, but we'll have to see what happens.

DOUBLE KO
ALL THE WAY
SO INTENSE
I'll stop now.

I've actually been really impressed by Conraaa as well, I really didn't expect him to do as well as he has been.

Only five more to go, and we'll have the Death Rumbles. Should be pretty interesting.

[Mr. AS]

[Conraaa]

I've actually been really impressed by Conraaa as well, I really didn't expect him to do as well as he has been.

You and me both.

[Jack Daniels]

Ouch. I am out. XD Got farther than I thought I would with a cobbled together mess-bot.
Some epic battles there! The double KO was awesome. There are some pretty surprising names still in this tourney... it is like underdog-fest. I love it.
Totally rooting for Trollestia and Grinding Noise.
Troll because it seems so simple and yet it is doing so well.
Grinding Noise because I <3 the creativity involved and it rocks when it actually works.
Great tournament Click. It was an honor to compete.  Best of luck to the remaining bots!

[Clickbeetle]

I'm not sure why I went all havoky that time. I thought it was only against wedges that I did that.

I'm not sure either.  Maybe it's any bot with a burst motor and not just wedges?  We'll find out if RPM havoks against The Beast.

Plutonium - I don't get why is this still alive, I thought you eliminated bots with no wheel spares and only one wheel left click ?

 
Plutonium had two spares left so next time it fights it will have 2 wheels.  If it loses one more it will be eliminated.  (It's 4WD if you can't tell.)

[Clickbeetle]

Round 7 is up!
 
Not as much happening as last round, but we're getting steadily closer to the semifinals.  I would guess it won't be more than 2 more rounds.

[Sage]

Hmmm... i don't know what to think about my next draw. I could be KOed easily with how many weapons i have left, but at the same time I might not be. Although being KOed might be beneficial at this point so i don't lose as many weapons.

[The Ounce]

Hmm, didn't go as well as I hoped, but at least I only lost one mace.

And I lol'd at Trollestia hanging from Grinding Noise and not getting hit by it.

So we meet again Kill, except this time I'm not letting you leave with a full pair of wheels.   

Alright, round 8 predictions:

One Way Ticket > Rider on the Storm - Like Blood Shed, Rider on the Storm doesn't have many weapons left.  However, unlike Blood Shed, it has those casters that prevent it from being KOed upfront.
The Beast < Grinding Noise - I wish this had happened sooner because The Beast is one of the few bots here capable of damaging Grinding Noise.
Voulez-Vous > Effing Stock - The few weapons ES has left isn't enough to protect it from Voulez-Vous.
Stratocaster < ReFlection - Another easy match-up for me, boring.  Though I might end up losing another mace.
Plutonium < Frag Beetle 2.1 - With next to no protection left Frag Beetle isn't going to have a hard time tearing off Plutonium's remaining wheels.
Triceratops > X-Press - Ordinarily this would be another wedge war, but since X-Press is missing his, it won't put up much of a fight against Triceratops.
Unexpected Nightmare > Speedy DX - Speedy DX will just wear out its remaining weapons on Unexpected Nightmare's relatively healthy front.
Trollestia 2 > Revolutions Per Minute - Unlike the last time these two met, RPM has lost a wheel and around 1/3 of its weapons while Trollestia has hardly suffered any damage at all.
Your Best Frenemy > BlackVein - With its wedges now gone BlackVein will have a lot more trouble damaging YBF's huge chassis.

[Clickbeetle]

And I lol'd at Trollestia hanging from Grinding Noise and not getting hit by it.

[Somebody]

I am pleased, especially because this is turning into a rammer war

[GroudonRobotWars]

And I lol'd at Trollestia hanging from Grinding Noise and not getting hit by it.

Would like to post the Princess Trollestia vector I made of that but I will get in trouble because it is an MLP image

But that was a good match

[RpJk]

:clapingI did better than I expected though hoped to die in Round 8 but my structure was weakened and collapased like a buliding. Fair play to freeizez for beating me and I will support Somebody or Firebeetle to win.

So best of luck to everyone else.
