RNP: Sword of Glory - SBV - Awards

(even if AS is an ultra-tryhard jib).

I know full well that Gaming Grandpa is more on the DSL-S side, but is this coming from the same guy who's best known for entering the same Tombclone design into every other tourney?

It could be worse, I could stick a flywheel on a robot with 8 small typhoon teeth and make it look unrealisti-OH WAIT


But seriously, I don't enter Mechabide/Tombvore/whateveryawannacallem robots anymore. Besides, people know how to counter them in IRL now. ;P

You mean that robot that's not even in the tourney? Now you're just grasping at straws.

BTW, giving it something along the lines of 2 or 4 heavier weapons would actually make it more effective, due to how DSL's balancing rewards heavy weapons/normals weapons with higher efficiency.

Well, it was initially in the tournament before I spotted it and forced a redesign, but yeah. I know about DSL's efficiency curve, but wouldn't a weapon with 8 small teeth grind and hit a lot more evenly than 4 large teeth? ;P

Wow, what a final battle. That was unbelievably close.

Discontent's next up, I'm actually pretty nervous...

Stage 2: Middleweight: Group 3



Featuring:

-iKa-, Badnik96, DemonOfTomorrow, F1Krazy

[F1Krazy]

well that was probably the second-most embarrassing performance of my GTM career

I lost to a thwackbot without a thwacking arm for Christ's sake

also I can't believe my batteries lasted so long in the Valhalla fight but then packed up entirely in the Radioactive Material fight... guess it's time I retired the DisHarmony series and started from scratch.

[F1Krazy]

I think that was at least a better performance than Discontent's. Dentophobia did much better this tournament than I thought it would.

Godspeed, Kyros' Power. Godspeed.

Stage 2: Heavyweight: Group 2



Featuring:

Dragonsteincole, Kurt, Pressure, Tashic

[doot]

Ah, crap, its Lights and Sounds again. I'm worried if I can actually repeat the success of what happened in the initial encounter.

(also I got 1 from each weightclass in the final woo)

[Philippa]

double ring spinner BS is best BS

it really is the best BS

stop being good BS

[Tashic]

Well. That's it for me. HS and FBS are always a weakness of my bots. Might start to build some.
Good luck to the remaning competitors.

[dragonsteincole]

Carbonize got ****ing mauled in the first match, bullied hard in the second, and had a vulgar display of power in the 3rd. Overall, not great. But can't say that Kurt and Tashic didn't deserve those victories. Lights and Sounds is brutal, and Fork Flip 2 is designed perfectly to irritate and prevent a decent blow from landing.

Stage 2: Heavyweight: Group 3

Glad the sns is out :P

So up until now we have Stinger Nightmare and Cpt. Shredderator in the finals. Interesting.

[Pressure]

Glad one of my bots is in the final.

We are nearing the end of the main tournament. The finals will be posted as one whole video, with the rumbles at a later date to put an end to the tournament, officially.


You are now allowed to challenge robot(s) for matches! But there are changes:

For a grudge match, you must pick two robots for a singles match (your robot must be chosen for this to count), in any same weight class.

For an exhibition match, you are allowed to pick any 4 or 5 robots (your robot doesn't have to be chosen) for a round robin, in any weight class.


End-Tournament Rumble Change:

Rumbles in RNP have been a tradition since the beginning. Every rumble, it's 4 robots with 1 being eliminated per round. Because of the entry size for Sword of Glory, the rumble will instead be 4 robots with 2 being eliminated per round. When a round lasts the full 3 minutes. The robot or 2 robots with the least amount of points, are eliminated. Havoks were confirmed in sign-ups to be a way of elimination.

You can request one grudge and exhibition, per weight class. Have fun deciding!





Edit: The weight class rule has been relaxed for the grudges, and exhibitions! Go crazy!
