Robot MPire: Series 2

[Probably Rob]

The main Championship and minor competitions will feature any weighted classed robot, from antweight to super heavyweight.


The Rules

They were as follows:

- Series 2 uses DSL (with the Firebeetle Component Pack).
- TWO robots are allowed to be entered in the main competition.
    - Only one of the two robots can be entered in the King of the Hill AND Sumo Basho (one can be for Sumo and the other can be King, vice versa).
        - You can make an entirely new robot for the Sumo and/or King IF you have two main competition entries.
- Any class of weight allowed.
- No flamethrowers, electricity, or anything stupid.
- Do not use a robot that is already on the game. Editing a pre-made robot is however allowed.
- In addition, do not copy a creation of another person.
- You are allowed to enter a real-life robot that is not in the game, but must not already be entered.

The Match Information

Series 2 will feature:

Main Championship (128 entrants)

16 Heats, 2 Semi-Finals, 1 Grand Final.


Sumo Basho (16 invitational entrants)

1 robot in the Sumo Basho event per Heat.


King of the Hill (48 invitational entrants)

3 robots in the King of the Hill event per Heat, 4 robots per Semi-Final, 4 robots in the Grand Final.



Every single match is won either by knockout or a judges' decision.

All matches will last 3 minutes, a judges' decision will be held if robots are still mobile.

A judges' decision will NOT be held during the King of the Hill event after 3 minutes are up, unless two or more robots are tied on points.



Heats A - P

Round one will feature eight robots. Two will be pitted against each other where one will be eliminated in each match, leaving four robots to go through.

Round two's battles will have two random robots decided via a drawing, where each winner will go onto the heat final.

Round three consists of the two winners from their first and second matches, the winner of the heat final will go on to the semi-finals.

Round two will have two matches with the four remaining robots. The two robots that win their matches, will go through to the Grand Final.

Grand Final


Round one consists of two matches with two random robots via a drawing, the winners and losers will still have one last specific match afterwards.

Robot A vs Robot B, Robot C vs Robot D

8 robots were put into each heat via a random numbered drawing. No foul play was had in any of the pickings.

[Mr. AS]

- Series 2 uses DSL (with the Firebeetle Component Pack).

cant wait to see who tries to use laser cannons.......

[Naryar]

Laser cannons ? This is DSL. Laser cannons won't do much against a fast gutripper.

I'll enter something lulzy. Time to abuse the best components.

All 128, 48, and 16 spots are filled; this is in the Display section.

[MassimoV]

I like your splash.

[Badnik96]

Predicting an easy heat victory for Nightmare.

Predicting an easy heat victory for Nightmare.

Most likely, although Nightmare DSL isn't half as powerful as most VS...

[Probably Rob]

Filming has begun, with Heat A finished. I can confirm, series 2 will begin Q2 2013.

Edit: Should also mention, the quality has 100% improved compared to series 1's Heat A to E, and looking at them, you'd think Sparky's drawn robots were part of production. That's how bad the quality of series 1 was!

[MassimoV]

Cool. I like this tourney.

[Probably Rob]

All 16 Heats are now complete, Semis and Final filming will start next week - hurray? This will be the last post I'll make in here, 'til the MPire returns in Q2 '13. This was a pretty unnecessary post, hah.

[MassimoV]

Can you upload some splashes?

[Probably Rob]

This will be the last post I'll make in here,

Gaaargh, broken promise! 

Can you upload some splashes?

I should've probably said this in the first post. Shows will be posted on Saturdays, and splashes will be posted on either the Tuesday or Wednesday before the next episode.

[Probably Rob]

Robot MPire returns!


HEAT A:

- Killertron, Blood Runner, Ronin, Nightmare (9), King B Powerworks, Sump Thing, Silverfish, Mace (19)

[Merrick]

Oh cool. Is this the tournament that my 'bots were going to be making a cameo in?

[Probably Rob]

Not this series, the next one.

Ahhh... finally a Heavyweight. 500 posts. Thank you to all! ;(

[Probably Rob]

HEAT B: Coming this saturday.




Notes:
Sir Beta the Knight was made by Chrisbeta.
Call of the Champion was made by Champion Gamer.

[Probably Rob]

HEAT B:

- Tazbot, Sir Beta the Knight, Mortis, The Solution (1), Bold Pride, Call of the Champion, Golden Destiny, Reading Steiner (14)

[Camaro Kid]

I'm think I'm the only person here who would say this but I feel the runner up should have won this heat. It show superiority during all it's fights including the final and only lost cause the winner got lucky like it did throughout the heat

[Probably Rob]

A great man named Rob Knight, once said... "Bullsh**!"

Poor Mortis, it even has bad luck in a Display Tournament!

[Probably Rob]

HEAT C: Coming this saturday.
