I had an idea with Matts entries, for the draw if I put in Matt 1, Matt 2 and Matt 3, and when Matt enters some robots it will be a random draw to see who gets whom.
And to give him more time, I will move his qualification battles towards the end of the pack.
24 knockouts to round the 48 non-seeds down to 24:
Achilles vs. Inferno
Boxx vs. Eye of Ran
Tenderizers Revenge 2 vs. Back to Rock III
SOR X vs. Brutalis 2.1
Crimson Thunder, vs. MacBeth
Fatality vs. The R.O.C
Ge5orce vs. Killotine: EVO
Cat With Wheels, vs. Mega Masher 2
Robo-Tiger vs. Spin Dash Unleashed
Supreme vs. Liar 2
Seung Mina V vs. Seung Mina V
Mad Dash vs. PsycloniZer
Paralyzation 2 vs. Battle Raptor 4
Y4 vs. Pure Evil: Back to Basics
Nidhogg Evo vs. pick-axe of doom
The 6isc vs. Stat
Black Panther vs. Knyfe
Premonition vs. Robo-Mosquito
Masamune vs. CroOKeD
Leprosy Infection vs. Sithis
Syndos vs. Intriguer
Matt 1 vs. Slammer
Curse of Dread vs. Matt 3
Robo-Goat vs. Matt 2
So Matt has basically the time it will take me to do the 21 other fights, which at my current speed of writing could be this time next year
Eye Of Ran vs. Boxx
Keep the weapon at its usual rpm (about 2/3 of full power, might go to full power if it looks resistant enough), Use the rear wedge to fend off attacks until I can spin up, avoid going near the hazards intentionally and basically try and shock kill it with repeated hitting.
Nidhogg Evo vs. Pick-axe Of Doom
While PAODs weapon is worrying, it has polycarbonate armour. Nidhogg likes polycarbnate armour, as his doctor has been telling him he has been getting too much hardox and must maintain a healthy diet by also eating lots of plastic.
In other words...get to sides or rear, crush, lift, lift, crush, some combination of those two, and pit. Simple really
STAT (note the use of all caps Dave :P) vs. The 6isc
Ram. A lot. Very fast.
Good luck to Jack and Frank, looking forward to the tourney starting
Dave - you put Seung Mina V in twice - I think you missed out Wedge Devolution. Ive corrected it in my predictions
Achilles vs. Inferno: Bo****cks! Thats the only word I can use to describe this. Achilles is a robot with a huge track record, and is very good and withstanding its with its new front end. On the other hand, I have 140kj in my spinner, and even though Im 8mph slower than him, by the time he reaches me (4 seconds proberbly), Ill already be spun up. Just dodge to the sides, wait till hes stood still, then pummel his sides to tear away the panels, score damage points, and aggression points and style points, stragety points and control points in case it goes to the judges (basically ever type of point that exists ) I dont have a self-righter, but I MAY be able to pull a Tornado Mer, so that;s only a small threat. My main threat is being pushed, so only attack when hes stood still - I dont wish to get nudged. If I tear a side off, ATTACK THAT SIDE LIKE THERES NO TOMORROW!!
Good luck Alex :wink:
Boxx vs. Eye of Ran: Dont know much about Boxx, but I know the power of Eye Of Ran - Eye Of Ran FTW.
Tenderizers Revenge 2 vs. Back to Rock III: Back To Rock III to completely own Richard, unless he can do something great.
SOR X vs. Brutalis 2.1: Brutaliss may actually cause some problems for SOR X - Its Dantomkia shape means that he can just charge into the ring and itll stop spinning, he can get under, and score a great OOTA. Im siding with the underdog for this.
Crimson Thunder, vs. MacBeth: Crimson will make short work of MacBeth.
Fatality vs. The R.O.C: Fatality is hella powerful, but R.O.C looks like a potential contender - but I go for the power - Fatality.
Ge5orce vs. Killotine: EVO: As much as I like Killotine, itll die.
Cat With Wheels, vs. Mega Masher 2: Cat With Wheels to easily win.
Robo-Tiger vs. Spin Dash Unleashed: I dont know much about Robo-Tiger, but I doubt itll win.
Supreme vs. Liar 2: Out of personal preferance, Ill side with Liar.
Seung Mina V vs. Wedge Devolution: OHHHHHHHHHH...Too close to call.
Mad Dash vs. PsycloniZer: PsycloniZer - easy.
Paralyzation 2 vs. Battle Raptor 4: Paralyzation 2 - easy.
Y4 vs. Pure Evil: Back to Basics: Pure Evil - not quite as easy as the previous two
Nidhogg Evo vs. pick-axe of doom: Nidhogg is going to eat Pick-Axe Of Doom up, chew it up and spit it out and notice he missed anything - Nidhogg to win.
The 6isc vs. STAT: The 6isc doesnt like pushers - STAT to win.
Black Panther vs. Knyfe: Brilliant - thats the only way to describe this. In me and Alexs second encounter, I think I stand a much better chance than the first one - with more than 3 times his pushing power at my disposal, and more traction, I feel confident to use...
8: A 42* hindged wedge at the front made of 7mm Hardox with a large 8mm Hardox hindge. The wedge is invertible, as it flops over if flipped, and isnt effected if flippeed. I use this against flippers.
The plan with this is to charge at his rear, and scoop him up and just push him about - maybe try to do a Storm II and ram him out the ring. The axe is not a fear as it shouldnt be too much of a danger to 6mm Hardox, and it looks to big to get into wheel housings. The flipper isnt TOO powerful, so thats not a threat to me either. Just plan to push him around the ring and kick his butt
Alex luck Alex...again
Premonition vs. Robo-Mosquito: Dont know much about either of these two.
Masamune vs. CroOKeD: Ill go for CroOKeD here, purely because of its spelling
Leprosy Infection vs. Sithis: Depends if Chris can stop Sithis spinning up to full speed - if so, he stands a chance, if not, hes screwed.
Syndos vs. Intriguer: No contest in my opinion - Intriuger to kick SNDOS around like nothing.
boxx v eye of ran: of all the robots... ok plan is to try and ram him from the side, make some dents (hopefully) with the spikes, and when the pit is open push him down!
nidhogg v pick-axe-of-doom: try and axe him before he gets me! i recon if i can get him in the right place i could make some holes, or if im lucky get to the electronics!
masamune v CroOKeD: try to get him to the arena wall then flip him O.O.T.A, or if that fails keep flipping him over...and over...and over...untill the pit is opened so i can push him down!
