Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 6!

Welcome to VFT6, where the long awaited semi finals are now just two heats away! Lets recruit another robot into our top 16, with Heat O!

Fourth seed Killotine Evo has entered all the VFTs but only in VFT5 did it make really great progress - axing Wheely Big Cheese, Chalkie, WOSS 1.5 and Influenza got it to the grand final, where WX 5.0 and Monsoons Back successively pitted it, giving it 4th place in the tournament! But its been winning plenty of other tourneys, and Steven has mainly chosen not to mess with a winning design - Killotine Evo remains a box with a low wedge, which now sports a low titanium spatula to help against skirts! The main weapon is the axe, made of 3.5mm Hardox and able to come down hard! Killotine Evo has good traction, good skirts and the axe is a good srimech, but it might not be that good at turning!

Twentieth seed Typhoon 2 entered VFT5 after its destructive victory in RW7, and made it to the heat final, where Scottish Fiction Mk2 managed to stall the spinner and overturn it, exploiting its weakness of a non existent srimech! Apart from that, Typhoon 2 is undoubtedly a tough machine - a spinning cone that does real damage to most things it hits! Its built by air force cadets - will we see a Top Gun performance by Typhoon 2 today?

Mother Of All Bricks 2 has never been in VFT before, but the fact that it came 3rd in PTT4 must say something about it! Its a brick shaped robot that runs on 8 shuffling plates which take it to 18mph, and probably make a lot of noise too! MOAB2 pushes with a frightening 128HP, and that means the screwdriver-drill weapon at the front can cause some pain! Its invertable and has torsion sprung skirts - will bricks rule here?

Ringmaster hopes to turn the arena into a circus ring and smack every other robot around - and its equipped to do so, being an invertable ring spinner with 8 steel teeth attached! It will outpace most of the competition at 20mph, and with its vulcalore wheels, its a good pusher too! Ringmasters strong chassis and shock proofing should prevent any fatal backlashes when it hits anything, but it could have trouble with a high ground clearance and exposed wheels on top!

Terrorhurtz has VFT experience, having competed in four of them, but only in VFT1 did it manage to get past Round 1, receiving a quick pitting by Achilles and Monsoons Back in its last attempt! Dont underestimate this roof shaped real robot, though - it came fourth in RW6, and it did that with its mighty double headed axe that pummeled Kronic 2, Panic Attack, Spawn Again and Bigger Brother to death! Terrorhurtz also has speed on its side, but its polycarbonate armour has been shown to be weak against powerful spinners!

Well Buy You A New One Tomorrow Mrs Brown is one of the few (if any) clusterbots in VFT6 - its made up of two invertable boxes that can push 200kg, and also lift it with linear actuated lifting arms! Its 10mm aluminium armour may not be the strongest in the business, and it has a high ground clearance, but it has teamwork on its side! Will WBYANOTMB have the same success as VFT4 semifinalist clusterbot You Outside Now?

Wrecktangle may well cause some wreckage in the arena - its based on Robotica contestant Ultra Violence, and is a wide box with skirts and a plough at the rear! At the front is a rectangular spinning blade designed to flip and damage, and it has a srimech bar on top! Wrecktangle has solid wheels that should be harder to damage, and its one of VFT6s fastest at 30mph, but will that lower its control?

And Ymir, originally the property of Alex Holt but bought from him by Andy Jackson, is a triangular robot a bit like Mega Hurts (the Navy one, not the computer one). At its front is a sharpened lump of Hardox - Ymir spins on the spot to bring it into effect, and can also run at its opponents with 25mph and 17hp in its drive! But with a high ground clearance and wheels that can be attacked from the side, will Ymir be left wondering why?

A frenzy of axes, drills and spinning blades awaits the audience now, as Killotine Evo, Mother Of All Bricks 2, Terrorhurtz and Wrecktangle are stuffed into the arena!

3, 2, 1 - ACTIVATE!
Killotine Evo and Terrorhurtz headed straight for each other, with Mother Of All Bricks 2 slotting between them to reach Wrecktangle, who went for Killotine Evo! The blade smashed into the seeds side, knocking it sideways! But Killotine Evo was rescued as MOAB2 turned and managed to shove Wrecktangle away side on! This opened up an oppotunity for Terrorhurtz to reach Killotine Evos side and begin axing the top, but the Hardox held firm! Meanwhile, MOAB2 had Wrecktangle against the north wall and was straining to get its own low skirts past Wrecktangles! Eventually, it succeeded, and Wrecktangle was being shuffled towards the pit release! Fortunately, its blade hit the wall and it literally bounced back, away from MOAB2, and ran into the bricks side! MOAB2 reversed, taking another hit on the front, but Wrecktangle turned to face it and they met head on, and both bounced backwards! Wrecktangle then turned to attack MOAB2s side - while dodging MOAB2s attempted attack, its momentum made it miss! Unfortunately, its side was exposed to MOAB2s rear, and the PTT bronze medallist exploited this, catching Wrecktangle in the side and ramming it into the pit just before it could close!
While this was going on, Terrorhurtz had continued to pummel Killotine Evo, until Killotine Evo managed to break away and both robots found themselves parallel to each other and unable to use their axes! They were still at it when Mother Of All Bricks 2 reappeared and came towards Terrorhurtz, who tried reversing out of danger! Unfortunately, MOAB2 chased it down - Terrorhurtz came on the offensive as the gap closed and managed to do some axing, but MOAB2 turned to scrape at the polycarbonate with its drill! Killotine Evo now chose its moment to attack, and its own axe had soon penetrated Terrorhurtzs shell! Desperately pounding its axe against the floor to escape, Terrorhurtz was dragged to the pit release by the 4th seed. It was dangled over the pit, and with a little push from MOAB2, it had joined Wrecktangle!
CEASE!

Terrorhurtz and Wrecktangle are eliminated!
KILLOTINE EVO AND MOTHER OF ALL BRICKS 2 GO THROUGH TO ROUND 2!

Typhoon 2, Ringmaster, Well Buy You A New One Tomorrow Mrs Brown and Ymir are next in our scheduled fighting!

3, 2, 1 - ACTIVATE!
Typhoon 2 and Ringmaster remained static to begin spinning, while WBYANOTMB split up and ran towards both spinners, but Ymir got there first and smashed into Typhoon 2, sending it reeling! As Ymir began spinning on the spot, Typhoon 2 drove away from Brown 2, who was chasing it, while Brown 1 went after Ringmaster! Unfortunately, Ringmaster had spun up, and was able to reach Brown 1s side and tear the aluminium! As Brown 1 went spinning off, Ringmaster reversed after it and hit it in the front, again knocking Brown 1 backwards, into the wall! At this point, Ymir got bored of spot-spinning and ran towards the stunned Brown 1, but was glanced by Ringmaster and sent against the wall itself! Ringmaster was quick to attack again, running into Ymirs right wheel and slashing it! Its wheel dented, Ymir was left wobbling as it moved again - Brown 1 shoved into it and sent it into Ringmaster to try and slow the spinner! Ymir went bouncing, with its wheel even more damaged, and Ringmaster was still spinning fast enough to knock Brown 1 away!
Meanwhile, Typhoon 2 had managed to spin itself up, and had run back towards Brown 2 to attack it! Pressurising Brown 2, Typhoon 2 had caused damage to the armour before deciding to move on to Ymir, once it saw the triangular robot was crippled! Trying to spin but failing to do so effectively, Ymir still managed to glance Typhoon 2 with its Hardox point! But Typhoon 2 was soon back on the case, hitting the left wheel! Brown 2 was following the RW champ, but Typhoon 2 just managed to keep ahead and hit Ymir in the wheel again, almost incapacitating it! Brown 2 now ran into Typhoon 2 to try and get it against the wall, but just failed! Ymir began spinning slowly, and Typhoon 2 whacked the left wheel once again, but Ymir was still moving a little! The 20th seed went to hit the killer blow, but Brown 2 went for it again, so had to be mashed in the side before Typhoon 2 could continue its attack on Ymir! Another hit on the right wheel had fatal consequences - Ymir could no longer move! After another hit to make sure, Typhoon 2 went after Brown 2! The other twin, Brown 1 hadnt been having much luck with Ringmaster, who had been running rings (hee hee) around it and pummeling it all over, giving it a rather battered appearance! Brown 1 now just went for the pit release, with Ringmaster, Brown 2 and Typhoon 2 pursuing!
Before it could reach the release, Brown 1 received a cheeky rear bash from Ringmaster, who was then rammed by Brown 2, not doing much good! Brown 1 was attacked by Typhoon 2, almost sending it against the wall! Brown 1 went for the pit release, and Brown 2 couldnt get there quick enough to prevent Typhoon 2 striking it again, causing more harm to the already damaged armour and rendering one part of the clusterbot incapable of movement! The 20th seed tried to escape the oncoming Brown 2, but was rammed against the wall, slowing its spinner! Brown 2 didnt have long to take advantage, as it was hit side on by Ringmaster! The two spinning robots ended up going for the clusterbot part together in the next attack, but Typhoon 2 hit Ringmaster accidentally and glanced off, leaving Ringmaster to hit Brown 2 in the front, leave a final slash and immobilise the third robot in the arena! The spinners kept to opposite sides of the arena as they waited for the final countdown on their sad-looking opponents!
CEASE!

Well Buy You A New One Tomorrow Mrs Brown and Ymir are eliminated!
TYPHOON 2 AND RINGMASTER GO THROUGH TO ROUND 2!

Heat O, Round 2:
Killotine Evo (4) vs Ringmaster
Typhoon 2 (20) vs Mother Of All Bricks 2

Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 6!

Well this is a surprise!

Killotine Evo (4) vs Ringmaster

Ive seen full body spinners and spinning blades bounce up onto wedges and Killy has one, and an axe, so Killy for me.

Typhoon 2 (20) vs Mother Of All Bricks 2

Bah, MOAB2 will kill it before the RW7 winner even starts spinning! For Aaron, its his way how he wants to defeat Typhoon.

Heat Winner: Killotine Evo

Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 6!

Killotine vs Ringmaster - Killotine to do what it does best.

Typhoon 2 vs MOAB2 - I dont care how much HP MOAB 2 generates, Typhoon can easily keep away until the shell is spinning. The drill wont cause any damage, merely being there to get it past the weapon rule, and as long as Typhoon is spinning MOAB 2 will just be blasted across the arena whenever the two touch. Typhoon 2 for me, but itll be on a judges.

Typhoon 2 vs MOAB2

Basically Ill keep running into Typhoon, its only powered by wheelchair motors and is not extremely fast. The weapon being powered by a chainsaw is quite gutless down low, so once hes in the low torque range, Im going to push him into a corner or the pit. As for Franks theory on my sliding across the arena, with the aid of the shuffling pads, that will be minimised, it will be Typhoon who goes flying. If I stay aggressive and control the fight the JD will be more favoured to MOAB, after all, Typhoon is a weak pusher, hard to control and is designed to spin, if he cant damage an opponent, he cant win.

HEAT O
ROUND 2
1) KILLOTINE: EVO (4) VS RingMaster
Simply charge straight underneath it before it can spin up and slam the axe into the LexiGuard top or into one of the wheel houses. From there, drag to the Pit Release and dunk in the hole.

2) Mother of All Bricks 2 VS Typhoon 2 (20)
Gotta go with the PTT4 upstart to overthrow the RW champion via severe bludgeoning

Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 6!

Hi, everyone. As you may have read on Martyns Quiz 9, I cant post on the forum right now. I changed my email address and I need an activation key sent by email to get myself back on, but because email notification is down, I cant get the key. So Martyn (and MHF, but his email address doesnt seem to be working) has offered to post the next VFT6 fights, and now, finally, here they are. Hopefully I can get back to writing at a good pace.

Getting back on track with Heat O, Round 2, can Killotine Evo take the place of the Ringmaster?

3, 2, 1 - ACTIVATE!
Killotine Evo came accelerating towards Ringmaster, who wisely backed off and began to spin! Killotine Evo ran to catch up, but Ringmaster only came towards it once its ring was going at speed! However, it came into the path of Killotines axe, which quickly came down, but hit the Lexiguard armour and made a dent! The axe retracted before Ringmaster could move and hit it, but the spinner could still do a slam attack into Killotine Evos side, and did, knocking it away! As the two came together again, Killotine Evo used its axe again and hit the edge of Ringmasters top, making another scratch! It tried to run from Ringmasters advance but was hit in a rear corner and spun off course! An attempted axe attack missed, and Ringmaster just hit the Hardox sides again! Rushing towards the spinner again, Killotine Evo managed to send its axe into a wheel house on the top! Now it could begin trying to drag, but Ringmaster fought back with 18HP drive! The result was both robots moving back and forth rather boringly! Eventually, Killotine Evo retracted its axe - and charged at Ringmaster, getting under with the spatula and knocking the spinner against the nearby west wall! Knocked against the wall but able to follow, Killotine Evo rammed Ringmaster again, slowing the spinner even more so it could bring its spatula and wedge underneath! Pinning Ringmaster down with the trusty axe, Killotine Evo quickly delivered its cargo to the pit release, and dropped it off in the pit!
CEASE!

KILLOTINE EVO GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!

A successful realie and a successful Vapour now go head to head - Typhoon 2 and Mother Of All Bricks 2!

3, 2, 1 - ACTIVATE!
Typhoon 2 began spinning its deadly cone - and a second later, was forced to run as Mother Of All Bricks 2 charged! Typhoon 2 found itself unable to outrun MOAB2, who turned around and came to greet it! Both robots were flung away from the impact, Typhoon 2 going wham into the south wall and being forced to start spinning up again! MOAB2 exploited this by running back into the 20th seed and bullying it into a corner, while wearing away part of the armour with its drill! The PTT4 third placer continued to pin the helpless Typhoon 2 for a while, the drill creating an ever more painful mark! Before the pin time limit was up, it released Typhoon 2, who ran for its life and began spinning up its shell again! But running for its life wasnt fast enough as MOAB2 caught up, withstanding the shell and bouncing Typhoon 2, then trapping it on a front skirt and charging mercilessly into the arena disc! Typhoon 2 bounced back against MOAB2 and away, while MOAB2 itself took a blow from the disc, but the Hardox armour shrugged it off!
Able to spin itself up, Typhoon 2 managed to run into Mother Of All Bricks 2s side as it was turning and knock its rear into the disc, but MOAB2 quickly responded by charging into the RW7 champ again, giving it and itself a good knock! Skimming to some distance away, Typhoon 2 got spinning again and came to meet MOAB2s next advance, which again sent both robots reeling! Practically undamaged, MOAB2 ran into Typhoon 2, almost sending it into the west wall but still slowing it! Typhoon 2 began running again to restart the spinner, and dodged MOAB2 when it charged, whacking it in the side! Shuffling itself around, MOAB2 came back towards the 20th seed and ran its drill into the spinner, knocking it back but scarring its weapon! Fortunately, Typhoon 2 was still able to keep away long enough to spin itself up again, and when the two robots made contact again, it was able to knock MOAB2 off course! But the unseeded robot was soon back on course, running into Typhoon 2 hard, and sending it against the north wall, before turning and getting its front skirt under the stalled spinner, and taking it back into the southwest corner! An attempt to overturn Typhoon 2 failed, so MOAB2 just pinned the RW champ again, wearing away with the diamond tipped drill! Again, the time limit wasnt quite up when MOAB2 got bored and released its pressured prey!
Typhoon 2 wasnt able to get spinning for long before it was hit by Mother Of All Bricks 2 again and bounced towards the wall! It didnt hit the Lexan, but MOAB2 was still able to get underneath and reintroduce Typhoon 2 to the arena disc! Skimming and spinning like a UFO, Typhoon 2 glanced the east wall and balanced precariously on its side - would it stabilise or go over! MOAB2 decided that by reversing quickly and catching Typhoon 2 on its skirts, successfully tipping it over just as Scottish Fiction Mk2 had done in VFT5! Typhoon 2 was left with its body spinning inside its shell, unable to right itself! MOAB2 watched with bemusement, then began quickly rolling its victim along, back into the arena disc! Typhoon 2 flew off again, but remained on its side, now with another scar in its armour! MOAB2 shuffled to its opponent in the arena centre, then began cruelly scratching away with its drill until the countdown on Typhoon 2 came to a close!
CEASE!

MOTHER OF ALL BRICKS 2 GOES THROUGH TO THE HEAT FINAL!
