W00t! =D Looks like another great tournament. Here are my predictions:
Warrior: Looks promising, I reckon it might do pretty well.
Corkscrew Two: I think I may have lucked out again with the draw, and I could find myself in the final again.
Bender: Looks like a pretty good rep, but I don't think it'll perform too well in combat.
Sweet: Interesting design, but I reckon the blade is a bit small.
IG-88: Looks damaging, but I don't know if that'll translate to victories.
Explosion: Looks brilliant, and like its IRL counterpart, I believe it could stand to go all the way.
Locust: I'm worried about those stabilisers, but it could pull off a surprise.
Vortex Inducer: See Locust.
Tsunami: Looks quite promising, I think it stands a good chance to win.
Night Stalker: A very good replica, but maybe not a winner.
Panic Attack: Another excellent replica, but I'm unsure as to its battle potential.
King B Powerworks: A bit like the previous two, only with exposed wheels.
Malvolio: Interesting design, but I don't think it's a good one.
Misty The Wonderbot: One of my favourite bots here. I reckon it could reach the top 8.
Gravity: 3 Judge Bursts seems unstable as
, but we could see a few flying opponents...
ORAC: Possibly my favourite rep here. Unfortunately, I don't think it'll win much matches.
Delldog: I think this could do well, depending on the draw.
Mouser Mecha Catbot: Looks great, and could spring a few surprises.
Peruna: A good design which could make the finals with some luck.
Root Canal: I can't see much from this one. Tentetively giving this my SFTW card.
Rambite: Weapon setup looks random as
, but we'll see how it plays out in battle.
Gi-Ant-O: Not as good as Hazard last time, but may do almost as well. A dark horse.
Raizer Blade: One of the best looking reps in the tournament, and hopefully it won't be all show and no trousers.
Rammstein: Well...it's a decent rep, but I'm going to give this my other SFTW card.
Ill-Tempered Mutt: An excellent rep, but the lack of offensive weaponry is REALLY going to hurt it.
FS: I can't see this one doing too well, personally. Third nomination for SFTW.
Kronic The Wedgehog: A Very nicely skinned rep from my friend GF93, and I think it could reach the finals this time around.
Village Idiot: A nice replica, and I think it could reach the finals as well. Another dark horse.
Chip: Another large bar spinner, much like Hazard last time around. I reckon this stands a good chance of winning.
Lock Jaw: Nice design, but I don't see it progressing too far after Round 1, if I'm honest.
Abaddon: One of my favourite reps here, and one that could pull a few surprises.
Cyclone: Looks excellent, in my view, and I'd like to see it in action. Could be one to watch this.
Finalists: Chip, Corkscrew Two, Kronic The Wedgehog, Explosion
