Full predictions :

The Last Soldier : It's barely IRL but well... one of the best bots in this thing by far.
Razer : Looks decently good, seeing most of the rest. Top four or five. I'd actually like to see it win because it's a hammer.
Hakurouken : Looks pretty fragile and slow weapon. Even with a HPZ.
Spycam : It looks quite a bit like SFTW, and is probably gonna be as good as SFTW anyways. Maybe just a bit better.
Raging Knightmare : Probably the wedgiest bot of the heat. although it doesn't look like it can OOTA stuff. Probably pretty bad, although maybe it can win a few things by judge's decision.
Kronic the Wedgehog : Although probably a flipper, it looks pretty bad and generally harmless. :SFTW
Spin Bonker : Top three of the whole heat, although possibly not the best.
BOT-CHOY : Still the same old BOT-CHOY. Unless it falls on a flipper and gets immobilized it's probably going to fair decently.

Overall ranking :
TLS - #1
Spin Bonker - #2
Razer - #3
Hakurouken- #4
BOT-CHOY- #5
Raging Knightmare - #6
Spycam - #7
Kronic - #8

Hakurouken doesn't even look realistic.

It looks sort of similar to Hammertron from Series 3 of Robot Wars. It could be built, sledgehammers are pretty terrible weapons anyway in Stock, I can't really see what the problem is, personally.

That's not an opinion though.

I need to add few notes here

- Thyrus, the bot that is in the KOTH splash, was the final version of the bot you sent me.
- Chaosmancer changes the name from Mixer to Blender.
- Razer is finally finished, now with srimech & better wedge so it wont suck compared to the real version.
- Heat C video will be uploaded tonight, or tomorrow morning.

I'm sorry, where in the rules does it say you can change entries?

It doesn't matter. Razer is "byebot".

Just as long as Razer doesn't go through to the Semi-Finals (or even Heat Final, perhaps) I think we're alright with that.

Well that's just unfair. I just made those Replicas COMBAT WORTHY as possible like IRL.

I can understand, but you shouldn't be able to change bots after signups have closed. It pretty much defeats the purpose of a deadline, plus it allows other members to tailor their bots to better fight other bots in the competition.
