Good luck to

After about a year and a half hiatus, I finally get a chance to see my old entry fighting again. Also thanks Badnik, I actually wasn't expecting that old thing to beat Super Axe Handler.

Dradicator: Thyrus
Blasteroid: ty4er

Really not liking my chances here, but again hopefully whatever matchup I get it'll make for an exciting match.
This has been such a great tournament throughout though, you've done an amazing job :)

Ruination was made by Lemon?

Yup. There's a very similar robot in my showcase, except with a spinning bar instead of ramming spikes. I don't remember which came first though.

I'm going to be honest. I don't want to see a generic wedgebot with heavily armored front and a spinning blade to win the tournament... I'm cheering for Wheely Big Cheese & The Thermite

awww... if only this was a tournament you were hosting... ohhh wait! :O

Here we are, folks:

The Thermite: RedAce
Dradicator: Thyrus
Blasteroid: ty4er

RedAce · « **Reply #156 on:** May 27, 2015, 07:58:52 PM »

Welp, This looks like the end of the road for me. I will gladly take fourth place right now. :P

I do think you're undermining what they actually are. It's like calling Hypno-Disc a generic rectangle box with a heavily armoured back with a spinner on the front :P
