It's been a while since i've done predictions, how i've missed them:

SKBT: Looks powerful, but fragile. Not sure about the quality of the wedges.
Freeziez: Generic, but threatening i'm sure. Could go far, but it's unlucky in the bracket.
Mr terrible grammar sauce: Poor, but could beat still beat me due to my rather poor wedges. Won't go further than that if it does though.
LLB: Probably the messiest bots i've ever seen. SFTW
Vertigo: Great looking bot. Dark horse.
090901: Nice bot, if those wedges prove to be as good as they are long, we may have a winner.
MM: Looks cool, but, in this tourney, I doubt it'll go too far.
JD: Sorry JD, but I don't like it. It's not a bad bot though, and could still do well.
RPJK: Very poorly built, easily joint SFTW with LLB
Scrap: Prettiest bot here, also looks effective. Again, if the wedges hold up, it could very well win this.

What I think of my robot:
Good to me:
1. Protected at the sides
2. Uses ballast where the wedge is to make it better
3. Got a trick with the weapon :trollface
___________________________________________
Bad to me:
1. Bad wheels
2. One wedge
3. Why the heck did I add a Snowplow?
4. Bad Chassis Design
5. Does bad against HS's
6. Does not have a srimech.

Overall: One win at most.

Predicted Winner: Vertigo but SKBT has the coolest looking robot.

Predictions : Difficult to tell cause it's all a depending on wedges tournament (well mostly)

SKBT: Looks ok.
Freeziez: Same, though really ramplates on a popup built as an anti-wedge ?
Mr. AS: Looks like crap. It's only 2WD, looks like the wedge is faily, and seriously casters on the bottom of a popup... not the worst though.
LLB: Moar liek "Wedge Horror" amirite ? Seriously it's so messy, the weapon is awful, the drive is badly built.... :SFTW
Vertigo: Looks alright. Depends on wedges.
Scorpion: Coolest bot of the whole tournament, also looks pretty good. Would have been even cooler with a skin though, and the opponent's wedges might get stuck into the casters.
090901: It's probably good... though why the heck do I see random axes on there ?
Marty: Only HS of the tournament, and a pretty decent one. I think it might be a dark horse.
JD:... I don't think the wedge is very good
RJPK: oh god wtf is this. Whatever it is, it's probably going to be fodder to most bots.
Scrap: Second coolest bot of the tournament, probably also good. Though the wedges are really wide, but the small chassis is going to help. Too bad it can't self right fully.

The matches pretty much went as I thought they will. Though excepted Mr. AS's failbot to be KO'ed. Didn't knew they were that much casters.


Also, nice music choice.
