    Right, Im really sorry to say that I...

    HAVE PUT UP THE HNEXT HEAT! Brilliant!

    HEAT 2

    ROUND ONE:
    Killotine: EVO (3) vs. Death Threat 2.0 vs. Merlin
    Atomic (19) vs. Nidhogg vs. Black Death

    +1>From Scotland, seeded #3, Killotine: EVO!!
    -1>Entered by Steven McGregor
    The executing machine of E.O.T.R 1 returns! The first ever champion of our series is a tough robot to rival, using its seriously thick 3.25mm Hardox armour for the front, back and sides, and its bomb-proof Polycarbonate top armour at 15mm thickness. The motors inside this beast are 2 x LEM130€™s, powering 4 Wheels, giving traction and power difficult to be rivalled. The weaponry is a Hardox axe with a spiked point, with the ability to pierce Titanium - the weapon runs on CO2 at 160psi, giving off 900kg of force per hit! Flipping it is tricky, as skirts on all the sides prevent nearly anything getting under. At the front is an extension plate, making it even tougher, but all this skirting makes turning a bit of a problem.

    In E.O.T.R 1: Showed everyone who was boss in Round One, when it hacked up Obliteration, immobilising the shell and allowing Flippa Frenzay Mk.7 to toss it out. Drilla Killa 7 suffered pain as well having been battered and pitted, but both robots were pitted at the end! The judges let Killotine through to face Tornado in the Heat Final, where it nearly got pitted again, but it saved itself and Tornado went down instead. In the final 12, things seemed to be simpler, but not clean going, as it took a bit of time to pit Agro 3.5, after getting the axe into the wheels. In the top 6 melees, it was easy, as Crusher C.U and Black Panther Queen got caught together, easy to be pitted by Killotine. In the final, Killotine: EVO looked outclassed against Storm 2, as Storm pushed it around the arena, and nearly down the pit, but after Killotine chopped off a drive chain, it made Storm easy to pit and made Killotine: EVO our first champion!

    In E.O.T.R 2: (SEEDED 1) Battered up TIRTASM in Round One with help from Ramthrax 2, before finally pitting TIRTASM, and then it turned Dallas into a pepper pot before sending down the hole. Then in the Heat Final, it met Ramthrax 2 once more and a lucky blow cut out the control box, leaving Ramthrax dead. 28th seed Shovearound 2 posed a bit of a problem, but not enough to be hammered and pitted, but its winning run was to come to a shocking close as it fought 22nd seed Achilles, and a piece of poor control placed Killotine on the Achilles flipper, and Killotine disappeared over the side.

    In E.O.T.R 3: (SEEDED 7) Looked on fine form in his heat, as he once again hacked into Obliteration and also into D-J, but killed Obliteration first, before then meeting the robot known as Quocunque Jeceris Stabit, where it pierced its gas bottle, immobilising the flipper before chopping through the armour to kill the motors off, and there-after came the winning of the heat, via the pitting of D-J after immobilising the discs. In Round Four, Steven met 13th seed Psyclonised, and the ex-champ was scared, as Psyclonised tore out the axe and proceeded to bash it up. Killotine, however, survived the loss of the weapon and was controlled and aggressive enough to win the JD. Just like last series, Killotine met the 17th seed Ramthrax 2, this time in Round Five. That battle was very even, with moments of Killotine giving Ramthrax punctures in the armour and moments of Ramthrax smashing Killotine around, but eventually, Killotine damaged the control box and was through to the final, where it was tossed into the pit by outsider and eventual runner-up, Wedginator 6.0, but in the play-off, it knocked out Eternia€™s gas bottle and dominated it for the whole fight to take the Aluminium cup.


    +1>From Bedford, Death Threat 0.2!!
    -1>Entered by Danny Bailey
    The threat of death is nothing we can escape from, just like this robot! Death Threat is a classic box shaped rammer, using tracks instead of wheels, and tracks increase the grip on the ground, giving it great traction on the floor, so it can use its mighty Titanium claws that can crush with a force of 6.25 tons! The tracks can get it to speeds of 13mph, an unlucky for the opponent, as it can accelerate instantly! It is almost impossible to damage with 5mm Hardox armour, but tracks mean poor turning and overhead attacks are dangerous!

    +1>From Colville, Merlin!!
    -1>Entered by Alan Young
    A magical performance is guarantied from this box-shaped realie! Merlin uses a mixture of Titanium (3.2mm) and Hardox (4mm) for armour, putting the Ti on top and Hardox on sides, rear and front, and the sides and rear are pointed to make the robot stronger. For weapons, it has a full-pressure CO2 flipper, that can lift 3000kg on top of the ram, and at the front it can lift 900kg. It only has two wheels and 2hp for power, but the torque gives it great amounts of power and the go-kart tyres give traction galore! It has speeds of 15mph, giving a good mix of speed and acceleration. But the invertibility leaves the wheels open for attack, and the high ground-clearance at the rear and sides makes it flipper intolerant!

    In E.O.T.R 2: In Round One, despite being flipped all over the shop by 11th seed Wedge Devolution, it eventually helped the wedge to dispose of Rouge, but got lucky in Round Two against the almight Manic Monsoon. But in the Heat Final Wedge Devolution showed no mercy, but Merlin did trap it upside-down against the arena wall, but Wedge escaped and was able to stack Merlin and toss it OOTA!

    Death Threat moves slowly towards Merlin, and Merlin moves quickly towards Death Threat. Steven seems to be waiting, but now he speeds Killotine out of the starting position and crashes through the collision of Death Threat and Merlin! He spins around and pushes into Merlin into the walls before bringing the axe into play and puncturing the top armour of Merlin! Death Threat now comes in, and tries to snatch Merlin away from the clutches of an ex-champion! Steven and Alan aren€™t prepared for it, and the claws wrap around Merlin, but the pointed sides mean Merlin escapes up the grip! Alan now twists around his creation and pushes forward against the crushing claws, and now Killotine comes in from behind and gives Merlin a few more holes in the top armour, and now Merlin flips over Death Threat! Killotine goes for the turned over Death Threat and the axe instantly SLICES DOWN AND HITS THE TRACKS! A track snaps in half width ways, and now Merlin pushes into Death Threat and flicks it over again, but now Merlin rushes in and GETS UNDERNEATH KILLOTINE! Another flick from the flipper and Killotine ends up on its back, but he gets back and working again€¦which is more than can be said for Death Threat!
    10€¦9€¦8€¦7€¦6€¦5€¦4€¦3€¦2 €¦1€¦cease!!!
    Merlin now gets slammed against the pit release button by Killotine who brings the axe down again, but misses! Merlin now escapes and rams into Death Threat, pushing it along and flipping it against the wall! Danny now looks on in sadness as Death Threat is projected over the side! But as Merlin flips, Killotine now slams the axe into the flipping arm! Killotine now drives Merlin towards the pit and down it, but as Merlin goes down, the axe retracts, and both Merlin and Killotine go down the pit together! Alan and Steven cry tears of laughter, while Danny cries tears of sadness.

    Result:
    Death Threat 0.2 moves into the land of the dead!
    KILLOTINE: EVO (3) AND MERLIN GO THROUGH TO ROUND TWO!!!

    +1>From Wostercher, seeded #19, Atomic!!
    -1>Entered by Stephen Bebb/Dave Sheppard
    Prepare for the ultimate in explosions! Atomic is a special robot, using a high-powered flipper to flip other robots over and its 12mph speeds to ram them and get under! The armour is Titanium and is thick-ish at 7mm and is overall quite a nice design of robot, but the flipper isn€™t very reliable and the armour might be torn by the army of super spinners out there!

    In E.O.T.R 3: United with 5th seed Black Panther Queen to help give PMPY a right good flipping with Alex€™s seed making the OOTA, but in Round Two, it caused outrage as it took on one of the competition favourites, 21st seed SOR Hex, and despite being bashed by the bar, it rammed underneath SOR and flipped it down the pit! It gave Black Panther Queen a run for its money in the Heat Final, but then the contest was over when Black Panther Queen flicked the brave realie into the pit!


    +1>From Pontefract, Nidhogg!!
    -1>Entered by Joey McConnel
    Here€™s the Welsh pork to shove away our British Beef! This robot is an Elongated triangular pyramid with a steep rear and a very shallow front, to make room for an hydraulic crushing arm (constructed of hardened steel and aluminium alloy) at front driven from a LEM130 pump at 3000psi, giving 9 tonnes of force at the ram and 4.5 tonnes of force at the tip. Also has Haardvark-style lifting forks at the very front run from an S28-150 Magmotor and a lead screw capable of lifting 200kgs. The robot can self-right easily, and is well protected with Hardox armour, but what is it going to do if flipped. Obviously self-right, but will it self-right quickly?

    +1>From England, Black Death!!
    -1>Entered by Samuel Park
    Here is a robot called €˜Black Death€™, and is hoping to creep through like a rat! This robot is a 19mph box wedge driven by 2 x 24V LEM130€™s. These give off a force of 6hp of push, and it also has 2 wheels with 2 x Aluminium Hub Wheels with a thin layer of urethane rubber on them. The weaponry is a flipper powered by 2 X CO2 Fire Extinguisher Tanks and a 10kg Spinning Flywheel on the back powered by a single LEM-170, spinning at about 6000RPM! Very well, but it can run out of CO2.

    Black Death storms off like a Black Panther and smashes full on Nidhogg! Atomic seems to be speeding into the rear of Nidhogg, and gets the flipper underneath as he and Black Death flip in unison! Nidhogg goes flying into the air and smashes onto the ground, but now turns and pushes under Atomic! Nidhogg brings the claw into action and crushes up the side of Atomic, but now Death Wish comes in and uses the disc to hit Nidhogg! The disc does little more than scratch the surface, but this allows Atomic to escape the clutches of the Welsh robot. Now we see Atomic moving towards the pit release button and a SMASH and the pit starts to descend! Nidhogg is now getting underneath Death Wish and lifting it up into the air, and turns Death Wish over and onto its back, but Samuel immediately self-rights! Atomic now moves in and turns Nidhogg over, and now Death Wish pushes it TOWARDS THE ARENA WALL! And there is soon no Nidhogg in the ring, and the team-upers celebrate with a victory spin!

    Result:
    Nidhogg is turned into bacon and eaten in my sandwiches!
    ATOMIC (19) AND DEATH WISH GO THROUGH TO ROUND TWO!!!

      Uh...Pontefracts in Yorkshire, not Wales :P

      Extremely good fights though. I kind of thought that would happen, and I dont think crushers are the type of robot that does well in melees.

        Killotine has a low ground clearence on the front, so, Ill go for the back and try to flip it over the fence, or into the pit.

          Killotine through.

          Atomic (19) vs. Merlin

          Im going to predict a shocker and say that Merlin will go out.

              Black Death VS KILLOTINE: EVO

              With the slightly lower top speed and four wheels opposed to two, I should hopefully have the control edge. Basically, get around to the sides, power under the 5mm ground clearance and hammer the...actually, what is the armour on Black Death?

              Grapple and pit as per. If I can, Ill try sticking the axe into the flipper when it opens too.

                    BLACK DEATH LAUNCHES ITSELF AWAY FROM THE STARTING ZONE! He comes barrelling towards Killotine, but Steven performs a cunning dodge and Black Death crashes into the wall BEHIND Killotine! Steven pushes underneath the sides of the newcomer using the extension, and BRING THE AXE DOWN! One time€¦two times€¦THREE TIMES A DINT! And now holes are appearing in the skin of Black Death, and Samuel doesn€™t know what to do! He forces his robot to the left, trying to get the flipper underneath Killotine, but the wedge on the ex-champ is WAY TOO LOW! Steven backs away, and Black Death CHARGES IN ONCE MORE! Killotine dodges again as Black Death flips, and now Black Death ends up upside-down! Samuel waits for the flipper to close and it does and he quickly flips himself right! But Killotine now slams the axe into the workings of Black Death! With the axe lodged in the workings, Killotine pushes the impaled newcomer into the Hardox spikes - hard! And this is a nightmare for Samuel, but he€™s soon free, as Killotine€™s axe loosens, and turns around to use the disc! Black Death reverses onto Killotine€™s front wedge, but the solidness of the does nothing, and another rain of axe blows comes into play! The last of the many blows lands in the disc, and when retracted, the axe has a chain hanging from it! Samuel now knows what€™s happened - Killotine has broken the chain of his disc! Black Death is now toothless, and Killotine pushes it once more!
                    10€¦9€¦
                    Into the wall! Another blow from the axe!
                    €¦8€¦7€¦
                    Steven now shifts his robot slightly, and the axe comes blasting down€¦ONTO THE ARMOUR ABOVE THE LEFT TYRE OF BLACK DEATH! The armour is dented downwards, and now it can€™t move on the left side!
                    €¦6€¦5€¦
                    Killotine now backs off the half-immobile Black Death, and watches him in the middle of the ring - suffering!
                    €¦4€¦3€¦
                    Samuel€™s robot, however, just seems to be moving!
                    €¦2€¦1€¦CEASE!!

                    The end of the fight! Killotine may be executing another robot, but Black Death is still moving, so we go to the judges. Looks obvious, but did the judges spot something we didn€™t?

                    JD - The scores:

                    Dominance: All of Killotine€™s attacks were successful, and it kept the attacks of its nemesis at bay, so Killotine gets full marks for this!

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 6 = 60
                    Black Death: 0 x 6 = 0

                    Damage: With a tyre immobilised, pierced armour and disabled weapons, Black Death was completely broken apart, whereas Killotine didn€™t suffer a scratch!

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 5 = 50
                    Black Death: 0 x 5 = 0

                    Aggression: Black Death wasn€™t given the chance to be aggressive, and its mad attacks were just bad aggression, so Killotine wins this category outright.

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 4 = 40
                    Black Death: 0 x 4 = 0

                    Strategy: Killotine succeeded in its plan to disable the weaponry of Black Death, but Black Death had no possible moment of getting its plan into play.

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 3 = 30
                    Black Death: 0 x 3 = 00

                    Control: Killotine remained calm and in control all the way through, but Black Death€™s mad attacks got it into constant trouble.

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 2 = 20
                    Black Death: 0 x 2 = 0

                    Style: The weaponry of Killotine is much more impressive than just a disc and flipper, so Killotine wins this outright.

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 10 x 1 = 10
                    Black Death: 0 x 1 = 0

                    Totals:

                    Killotine: EVO (3): 210
                    Black Death: 0

                    And it€™s a whitewash! The win in this fight goes to KILLOTINE: EVO!

                    Result:
                    Black Death is buried in its own grave - its coloured black!
                    KILLOTINE: EVO (3) GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!!!

                    The two real flippers drive into the centre of the arena and collide together with a SMASH! Both robots hit each, and they both flip - but neither robot goes over! The flipper of Atomic retracts first, and he bashes into Merlin! The flipper gets under Merlin and soon the box-wedge is upside-down! Alan is speeding off, and a dose of compressed air puts Merlin back on its wheels! Stephen now clashes together with Merlin again, but this time, it seems that the more powerful Merlin has the edge, and the flipper gets underneath, and now Atomic is put onto its back! Atomic quickly self-rights in a stylish 180 flip -ONTO MERLIN! Alan now pushes Merlin forward and Atomic back towards the arena wall, and flips! Atomic is flipped against the wall, and self-rights away, but Merlin blocks it again, but flips Atomic OVER Merlin! Stephen now bashes under Merlin€™s sides and Dave activates the flipper to overturn Merlin again. Alan now flips himself back, but Atomic storms under it and flips it against the wall! But now, Merlin€™s sloped sides have it stuck on the wall, unable to slide down! Merlin flips once€¦twice€¦thrice€¦FOUR TIMES AND HE€™S OFF! Atomic now gets under while the flipper is raised, and a flick€¦YES! Merlin is finally out the ring!

                    Result:
                    Merlin has its magical fighting powers let it down!
                    ATOMIC (19) GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!!!

                      Good fights Paul, and that was one incredibly one sided judges decision...Ill have to check if thats even happened before.

                      HEAT B FINAL:
                      Killotine to win this one, albeit possibly on a JD.

                        I think the closest thing to that is the C&B2 Heat E Final, which was Killotine: EVO vs. Axe-O-Lotl. Killotine: EVO won on a 23-2 decision, but nothing quite on my scale.

                          Both robots move out tentatively towards one another, until they collide together! Atomic€™s flipper gets underneath the front of Killotine and a flip sends the ex-champion tumbling over, but the axe easily fires the robot back the right way up, but Atomic rams in again! The scot tumbles once more and again, the axe fires and it ends the right way up! Steven now reverses as Atomic plows in once more, and bashes the front, but Steven reverses once more away from the flipper, and Dave and Stephen activate their weapon too early! Killotine now brings the down, AND DRIVES THE AXE RIGHT THROUGH THE FRONT FLIPPER PLATE! The podium holder is now ploughing onwards to glory as it hits Atomic into the spikes with a BASH! Killotine is now reversing and CHARGING FORWARD AGAIN! Killotine is now pummelling Atomic to doom! The axe now loosens, and Atomic now goes for the sides, but cannot breach them! And now Steven spins and fires the axe into the armour now, as the causes a few dents, and then pierces the bodywork! Atomic flips, AND TOSSES KILLOTINE BACK! The Stephen and Dave combination uses the flipper now, but Killotine self-rights once again! Atomic charges on, but drives over the flipping spikes! Atomic bundles over, and it now fires its own self-righter, but Steven blocks it, and brings the bludgeoner down onto the base-panel! Holes appear in the base panel, and now, once Killotine backs away from Atomic, it self-rights€¦with SMOKE POURING OUT OF IT! Quite clearly, the battle is over, and so is Atomic!
                          10€¦9€¦8€¦7€¦6€¦5€¦4€¦3€¦2 €¦1€¦cease!!!

                            W00tiness, Paul.

                            Heat 3
                            Black Panther Queen (5) vs. Tough As Nails vs. Exertion

                            Tough As Nails isnt going to be so tough when hes getting shoved all around the arena. TAN out.

                            Turbo Tails (21) vs. Intrigue vs. Paralyzation

                            I propose a team-up with Steve-O to destroy Paralyzation. The drum shouldnt damage me that much, but avoid it anyway. Get to the sides of Paralyzation, smack the exposed wheels, and push it around with my superior power. Feed it to Turbo Tails rear bar and see if it can rip off some of Paralyzations panels.

                              «Black Panther Queen vs. TAN vs. Exertion»

                              I shall be going for TAN here, and I will team up with BPQ as long as Alex agrees. Should be able to push it around with relative ease and feed it to the hazards.

                              Im guessing Paralyzation will be going out in the other melee.
