Ironbot SBV

[Sage]

So let me get this straight... the two technical winners at the moment were designed by me?

;P

[Dexterhunter]

Blood Shed was built quite some time ago Naryar.... stop being so brash. Also, do we all have to speak in spoiler tags here now? its really annoying. :/

Only right after new videos are posted.  Once it gets like 10-15 replies, or it's been a couple days, it generally doesn't matter whether you use spoilers.
 
But of course those are more like guidelines than actual rules.
 
Also I'm not sure why Nary is picking on Blood Shed; it's doing a lot better than some other more recent bots like Big Dog or The Injection or Bullet Train.  Maybe it's because of that one time Blood Shed lost to EMERGENCY by points.

It's just classier to not ruin it for people who haven't seen the video.

...why would someone read the results thread and not expect the results to be discussed? kinda redundant.

edit: its just kinda annoying having to unhide every-single-post when skimming through the thread. :/

They check the results thread to see if clickbeetle posted any new rounds, and don't want to accidently see results while doing so if they were late to the game.

WTF?  I lost because I got stuck on the spikes?!

Well, at least I didn't suffer too much damage, and I have an easy opponent next round to make up for it.

[RpJk]

Ok this will be the end of me, Also Click can change the AI So that my bot spins at the start of the match?

You don't have any weapons left so there's no point in spinning... all it would do is make your wheels easier targets.  Besides, the Ironbot rules state that bots without any active weapons must use rammer AI.

well Dog finally dies...

I still have no idea how it can lose to SFTW yet survive longer than my 36hs

[Mr. AS]

[Conraaa]

Gah so close to ko'ing Stratocaster.

[Fracture]

GO HARD BOT

[G.K.]

Excellent result for me against Sage there. Good matchup next round too.

Triceratops > This Fire : Now that This Fire has no wedges left, it's going to be a sitting duck, unless against a rammer.

It was a sitting suck against rammers before it lost wedges. ;P

[Wolfsbane]

personally freeziez, you got worse matchups than me. I got a Mace-spammed robot that traps me, then a fellow rammer, that skidded for a ko, then a VS/Popup hybrid, then a robot with no damage whatsoever.

[Badnik96]

Big Dog- Now a box with wheels. Will die soon.
BlackVein+- Surprised at how resilient it's been. Could make it to the final at this point.
Blood Shed+- Lasting longer than expected but its luck is definitely running out. Expecting it to die in the next couple of rounds, but  should make the top 16 if its luck holds out for like another 2 rounds.
BoomBox- 36HS are beginning to look like they're on the way out, this one is no exception. Should die soon.
Bullet Train+- After Frag Beetle shed it of all its spare wheels, it is definitely going to lose soon. But considering the state of some of the other bots, it could make the top 16 and then die in 3 seconds.
Effing Stock- Losing weapons fast. Shouldn't last too much longer.
Frag Beetle++- Definitely one to watch out for now that we've seen its de-wheeling techniques.
Golden Sun- No weapons left. Could die as soon as the next round.
Grinding Noise++- We've seen its killing capabilities, but it's crippled because of an early battle. If it loses the other wedge, I can't see it making it to the final.
One Way Ticket+- Hanging in there and in with a shot at the title. Might get decimated in the rumbles however.
Plutonium- No longer the killer he one was, he's down to 2 spare tires and an iron. Should die soon.
ReFlection++ Another bot with a shot at the title. Nothing much else to say.
Revolutions Per Minute+- I like this bot's chances but it might lose all its wheels before it gets there.
Rider on the Storm+- I still love the name but its lack of spare CB should end up killing it earlier than it should. If it can stay alive however it could be a definite dark horse.
Speedy DX+- After losing its spare wheels in the past round it has little chance of comeback, especially if it draws a bot like Voulez-Vous or RPM.
Stratocaster- Down to 2 wheels and few spikes, I can't see the terror of 1830 doing any more stuff.
Supernovae+- I said it was gonna go far earlier, but then I saw how well the spikes took care of 36hs maces and rethought my strategy. Could make it to the rumbles but not likely.
The Beast+- Definitely in with a shot. Best spinner left in the competition.
The Injection- One spare tire and almost no weapons. I can't see Vertigo going any further,
This Fire- That exposed chassis with no wedges or spare CBs is going to die quickly.
Triceratops+- Definitely more resilient than I thought. Could make the final.
Trollestia+- GRW's bot has been trolling us for sure. Somehow it managed to beat past multiple bots with virtually no weapon loss, and KOing GF93/Wolfsbane's bot to boot. Most likely gonna be a factor in the title (never thought I'd say that)
Unexpected Nightmare+- The name definitely fits but I don't see it going any farther than the top 16 now.
Voulez-Vous+- Most likely gonna make the final 4 with its gutripping techniques. I see it taking apart several bots on its way there.
X-Press+- another survivor, the wedges are gonna help it for sure to make the final 16.
Your Best Frenemy++- another survivor, managing to hold off Frag Beetle in Round 4 keeping it in title contention. Expecting it to go far.

Bots with + behind their name are my picks for the top 16. Bots with 2 + are my finalist picks.

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.
 
Anyway, round 6 is up now.  And it's a bloody one... Bots will be eliminated.  You've been warned.

[GroudonRobotWars]

5 Bots eliminated.

And Grinding Noise next [sarcasm]Great[/sarcasm]
