Light vs Dark - SBVA

[Jammy Dodger]

I'm not the only one who thinks Paladin is a tryhard robot, right? 3 bursts with a big arc and small wedges on hinges is total BS in my opinion. I'm all for efficiency in IRL, but not like this

Says the guy with 3 overhead spinners on his team, and a bot with nothing but hinges on his team.

OI Crocodile Smile is a bit more then "nothing but hinges" its meant to be a fun bot but if people think that of it as what you said then I'm disappointed

How about "Nothing but an overgloried flail ram"

Agreed. 3 bursts, and they are all at max arcs. The hinges are less of an issue imo, I mainly have issue with skirt sheets.

Before you go and try and slam our Team Captain for factors outside his control, how about you consider the fact that it was you who set up the luck-based system that led to 3 overhead spinners being on our team, and it was you who accepted CS, despite either knowing that it was over powered, or failing to test it properly to see if it was overpowered. Oh, and there's nothing un-IRL about overhead spinners, mate. There IS something wrong with a 3 piston flipper however.

Blame Gulden for allowing it. Also, it's a fairly cool idea, and spikestrips aren't that durable, and you saw it get outwedged and flipped about the place by Paladin.

So making a flipper as powerful as one would be IRL is OP now
Plus it's easily cheesed by anything that gets under it, you know, like a IRL flipper

Also, I'm fairly sure armour plates have the exact if not better stats that skirts so it's probably for the best he used skirts.

Before you go and try and slam our Tourney Host for factors outside his control, how about you consider the fact that it was Baconus, Enigma, and you who sent butt ugly HS. He never even said they were OP anyways, he was just saying they can literally beat most the bots on the team aside from Paladin maybe. Oh, and there's nothing un-IRL about slow and powerful flipper, mate. There IS something wrong with a  2 Moros blades stacked in each other, however. (Thanks F1Krazy for telling me so I can use it for copypasta)

Sounds like people just got E X P O S E D for trying to get ez wins with a HS

Croc Smile aka OMG SPIKE SPAM
10 spike strips x 2,000 hp each = 20,000 total HP
10 large beater bars x 2,500 hp each = 25,000 total HP
20,000 + 25,000 = 45,000 total HP
10 spike strips x  446 DP = 4,460 total DP + Flail boost since spike strips are only piercing
10 large beater bars x 240 DP = 2,400 total (No flail boost since pure concussion)
4,460 + 2,400 = 6,860 total DP + Flail boost

VS

Grindr aka OMG SAW SPAM
8 saws x 3,600 HP each (The appear to be 80cm Saws)  = 28,800 total HP
8 saws x  408 DP each = 3,264 total DP

Croc Smile > Grindr by 16,200 weapon HP
Croc Smile > Grindr by 3,595 weapon DP

So what bot had fragile weapons again

And who would have guessed a rammer without a wedge got dunked on by a flipper, I mean, that's kinda how things work, right?

from a observers point of view this was a really entertaining tournament up until the point when people started complaining.

ITT: Children getting salty that my bot is sh**canning their entire team. 

Cry about the flail ram before you start whinging about the powerful flipper. ty.

The fact that so many autists still name Paladin as “the greatest or most significant or most influential” IRL bot ever only tells you how far IRL building  still is from becoming a serious art. Stock critics have long recognized that the greatest Stock builders of all times are Rejected and Starcore, who were not the most famous or richest or most prominent of their times, let alone of all times. DSL standard critics rank the highly controversial Naryar over DSL standard builders who were highly popular in courts around Europe. IRL critics are still blinded by commercial success. Paladin beat more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Stock critics grow up building  a lot of stock bots of the past, DSL critics grow up building  a lot of DSL bots of the past. IRL critics are often totally ignorant of the IRL bots of the past, they barely know the best ones. No wonder they will think that Paladin did anything worthy of being praised.

[Gulden]

This was the hardest fight to judge yet.  Aggression was the hardest to decide.  The ratio I had at the end for aggression points were 68 to 59.  Giving solaris the win.

Captains, you'll give me one bot again.

Something tells me that team dark is going to be salty after this decision...

P.S.  Demon, the battle had already been recorded and uploaded at the time your change came along.  I was meaning to put this here, but IRL stuff happened.

[Baconus_Yum]

Lets see here, Team dark has 1 bot that hasn't gone yet, and an axe bot, against a dum spinner, a HS, and the flipper.

Oh man you are going to have to include a LOT of grudge matches for this Gulden
