Heat F of Deathmatch 3 is now up!

Division A Battle 1: Apparently I still suck at bot making.  Making the wedge too steep to really do anything against Royalty was something I didn't prepare for.  No I totally didn't think of entering Banisher after the success of Solar Storm.  What are you talking about?
Division B Battle 1: The one area End-It can stop Bad Company was in the front.  Well, that was kinda weird.
Division A Battle 2: Well, I guess either my flipper was too weak to do anything, or Ring Ring just got lucky that Banisher didn't flip it out of the arena.  Well, back to the drawing board for me again.
Division B Battle 2: Bad Company lost a wheel and from there he was curtains.  Had to implement the count there cause Bad Company was long dead after the fight in the recording.
Division A Battle 3: Normally I'd call an upset on the second seed as well, but A: If I learned anything from DM2, is that seeds often get lucky and get eliminated in the heats, and B: Royalty wasn't prepared to fight Ring Ring in the slightest.  I guess due to fighting a ring spinner with an exposed chassis and open tires, it was slightly expected.
Division B Battle 3: Same situation as Ring Ring vs Banisher.  Kinda strange to see looking back.
Heat Final: A war of attrition came down to who lost their teeth first, and Ring Ring made it look easy.  Also wrapping up the heats with an all spinner Grand Final.  This seems familiar...

I was expecting Ring! Ring! to do terrible, but i’m Happy to see it win the heat

[KidDelta]

Jesus, this was such an OLD version of End-it, brings back memories. Anyway....

I didn't expect to win a fight in that fashion, like, WOW
Also Congrats Sickle!

At last, the Grand Final for Deathmatch 3 is now up!

Look, this isn't me trying to be lazy, but it's the finals.  Go watch them if you would like to know what happens.

And that's the end of that chapter.  I unfortunately won't be doing any grudge matches due to a lack of time on my end, and as for Deathmatch 4?  Almost certainly going to happen, but it won't be happening until a little bit later since I have another tournament to complete first and that will take quite a bit of time.

My lazy entry won. I will make a proper CW version of Vespin next time, even if it means sacfricing on the power.

[Hoppin]

Solid 2nd place, losing to aids was bound from the start

[Sickle robotics]

5th place isn't bad, I guess

How the henhouse does your game not crash?  Seriously, other than the Ring Ring battle, all of Vespins matches would've destroyed my computer.

I'm arresting Vespin for Rape

The Crash Patch I made specifically for this helps.  And I've gotten a few crashes when recording, but nowhere near as much from previous Deathmatch tournaments.  Really, it was the Binary Star Systems that were giving me the most trouble in the Grand Final Matches due to some rampant havoks here and there.  But that was about it.

Catalyst sniping ring! ring! Is pretty hilarious, so as BSS getting abused by psychics
Gg to all who entered though, that win is pretty predictable tbh

[Olister92]

Nice to see I'm consistently sh*t in Deathmatch, congrats Sagaris

Doesn't the crash patch screw with the physics on some bots? I know that it was a problem for other hosts.

As for the tournament, it's a shame the tryhard typhoon spam drum won, but oh well. Plenty of cool entries and the tournament was well hosted overall, so I suppose it can only be considered a success

[Hoppin]

Nice job on a completed tournament my guy.
