sucks that the cool hammerbot lost by getting pinned, and that the cool dinosaurbot lost to the no effort chassis wedge flipper
So the strongest bot lose to the extender bot. If we're going IRL, there is no way RB would move on from that carnage.
Wow, Splicer 2 is so tryhard
Quote from: F1Krazy on September 02, 2017, 05:13:29 PMWow, Splicer 2 is so tryhardTook people long enough to comment on it, sorry to make something aimed for battle in a fighting tournament, serious talk here, if all you're after is eyecandy and you're going to complain about battle-oriented builds in tournaments, enter a DSL IRL BOTM or lurk around showcases.
ok so i haven't been on for a while so i've been catching up and let me say i cannot believe canine won that fight as i thought i was gonna get creamed by that ring spinner especially when i saw part of my wedge come off that was the "oh no" moment. I thought Headpats Only! would win it on damage however looks like that wedge was actually stopping canines weapon from reaching Headpats Only! and due to it being ripped off in a way Headpats actually defeated itself by taking away the one part that was stopping canine from being able to harm it. i personally think That was a good fight, yes there was not much carnage involved however seeing the wheels of both robots spinning furiously to gain grip to push the other for me was great and tbh when canine pushed Headpats into the corner it remined me of a boxing match. I think it was the fact that canine was too quick for Headpats to get up to speed that allowed canine to win and i think if canine had been slower Headpats would have ripped it apart so GG or in this case Good fight, Im just glad to know that canine wasn't a waste of time and actually won its first fight.Edit: seeing people go on about tryhards in a fighting tournament no offense to any but it is a fighting tournament hence why even after people in my showcase said canine's wheels were protected enough by the chassis i stuck armor plates on anyways as in tournaments you never know whats going to happen.Im going to be honest here, if these bots were player controlled then splicer 2 would be a lot weaker than it is now as its wheels are completely exposed and normally thats the first thing i'd go for as once the wheel is destroyed since this is an irl tournament its basically game over however the ai is not clever enough for things like tactics unfortunately.
If this were IRL, a bot that lost control after the first hit and spent 90% of it's time flailing around would never have been allowed to fight, so it's a moot point.

Rofl copter vs hollowed soul: Rofl copter in my opinion had a very unfortunate loss as it completely demolished red bull to the point that irl red bull might have had to forfeit but was too unstable in that fight according to rules and life

Even IRL, ROFLcopter is actually controllable with proper timing of weapon switching (or failsafe). It's the ai that kept the weapon on which caused the wobble and keeping the wheels off the ground. But it did get the win so I'm fine with that. On to the next victim! Err... fight!
