Ribcage Rampage SBV

[Thrackerzod]

I'm actually doing pretty well after that initial loss.

Your bot's been surprising me.  I thought for sure it was too underweaponed to achieve anything.  Turns out those saws are pretty good if you're given an opportunity.

Second match for today:

I think the ice cannons help as well, combined with the ninja stars they can rack up a frightening amount of damage.

Also, is there anything Spooky Scary Skeletons hasn't been mashed up with?

Far as I can tell, no.  I just wish these matches were longer so I could play more of the songs.

Today's first episode:

[UberPyro]

Dang, that one was close. Mr. Bones' Wild Ride almost fell off due to its instability but then ended up pulling through.

Pretty fun to watch.

[Thrackerzod]

Alright, it's time to find out who's going to the final!

it was me

Losers' Round 4 and Grand Final tomorrow!  Stay tuned!

[F1Krazy]

That battle with Mr. Bones' Wild Ride coulda gone either way tbh, we were both flying around all over the place. Great fun. Good luck in the final rounds.

And man, Wen's bot got punted :O

[Thrackerzod]

This is a bit later than usual, sorry:


Stay tuned for the Grand Final, later today!

[UberPyro]

I do wish we got to hear more of the song. This should have been BO3.

Also I'm looking forward to the finals.

Spinning sledgehammers vs spinning sledgehammers!

There's always next year!

Also, here's the final:


Conglaturations,

me.  Even though I won, I'm giving you a prize!  It's the super-cool arena skin I made for this tournament (comes in logo and no-logo flavors: https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/3594textures.zip

I'm planning to do a "Pizzaguy vs the world" bonus video at some point.  If you have anything else you'd like to see, suggest it here!

Merry Scaremas, everybody!

Blatantly rigged

How ironic.  Will there ever be another tourney like this? Maybe with 16?

I mean, I'd like to do another one next Halloween, but that's kinda a long time away, so plans could change.

In the meantime, I'm sure to run some other tournaments with stupid gimmicks you could check out.

A big thanks to everyone who participated and everyone who watched this tournament!  I had a lot of fun making it, and I hope you enjoyed it as well.

As I have done with my last couple of tournaments, I'm going to give out some awards.  No voting, since usually only two people vote anyway.

REALLY PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS:

BEST BUILDER WHO HAS ENTERED ALL OF MY TOURNAMENTS: RedAce, with Mr. Bones: Skeleton Warrior.  After controversially not getting this award in Dynamic 2uos, he's earned it back this time around.
MOST UNLUCKY: UberPyro, with Bonemerang.  A first round loss to a weird rule interpretation, and a second round loss to Pizzaguy.  If that's not unlucky, I need to buy a new dictionary.
SONIC "GOTTA GO FAST" THE HEDGEHOG AWARD: Mr. Bones' Annoying Neighbor, built by Pizzaguy2020.  With its 4-wheel Twinbird drive, this bot was sure to leave burnout marks across the arena floor.
BEST BOT BUILT AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE FOR NO APPARENT REASON: steve, built by 090901.  09's interesting design choice challenges the standards of society, and makes you question your own innermost self.
BEST BOT WITH NO WEDGES: Mr. WEN kill your weapon., built by WenXiangLee.  Wen dared to go wedgeless for this tournament, and it paid off for him, with his bot reaching the Winners' Semifinal before being knocked out.
BEST BOT NAME: Mr. Bones' Wild Ride, built by Ben Purse.  You can't improve on perfection, a fact Ben Purse demonstrated by boldly leaving his robot's name unchanged from the template chassis.
MOST DEADLY Meat Locker, built by F1Krazy.  Every match Meat Locker won, it did so by destroying its opponent, unlike most of the fights in this tournament, which were ended by OOTAs.  Even more impressive, this is coming from a robot I initially thought would be horribly underweaponed!
WORST USE OF FLAMETHROWERS: Bonechill, built by Thrackerzod.  Bonechill has VS weapons designed to throw its opponents out of the arena.  It also has flamethrowers, which work best when you can grab and hold your opponent in place.  Why I put these together remains a mystery.

Welp, with that, the tournament's done.  Let's end on a high note:

Congrats on a successful tournament! Your host point will be added shortly.
