Predictions

Tornado v Raging Knightmare

Im going to stick my neck out here and go for an upset. Im just wondering how well they can attack without getting flipped and both robots use the side walls for most of there action so Im going for a large wind blowing OOTA

Dantomkia v Gravity

This will be close. I think the difference could come in the form of DTKs use as a fully body spinnery thingmajiggy

St. Agro v X-Terminator

No t a hope in hell for the cornish lads unless they do an Iron Awe

Bulldog Breed v TAN

BB has trouble getting things OOTA, so Im going for the invertible TAN TO GRAB THEM AND DUMP THE DOG DOWN THE PIT.

Raging Knightmare v Gravity

Gravity to fir the Raging Knightmare back into the land of Dreams...or OOTA whichever comes quicker :-O

X-Terminator v TAN

X-tarminator IMHAEIO cant damage anything other than the tyres, and theyre expendable. TAN to outpush them and dump them in the pit.

Predictions

Tornado to meet Gravity, I would want Gravity to win but I have this feeling that it would be Tornado.

X-Terminator to meet Bulldog Breed and rip it up a bit.

Predictions

Tornado v Raging Knightmare

Some people might disagree, but I think that Knightmare has had luck as its main weapon so far (ROTAS C02 pipe bursting, Spawn Again team failing to realize they needed a new ram), so I think Tornado.

Dantomkia v Gravity

Gravity to misfire a flip, send itself into orbit, and hit the Moon, whereupon it goes splatt...OK, Gravity.

X-Terminator v St. Agro

Depends if St. Agro can get one good attack on X-T...if so, one good flip and its all over. Otherwise, X-Terminator.

Bulldog Breed v Tough as Nails

Bulldog Breed. Not really sure why.

MHF. As Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons might say

Worst Predictions Ever

Why? Sorry if it sounds insulting, but;

1;How on earth is Raging Knightmare supposed to flip Tornado? Tornado may be all brawn, but he isnt stupid, certainly smart enough to avoid flippers. After the rebuild, Tornado has NEVER been flipped OOTA, so RK will have next to no chance. Besides, Defending Champions NEVER go out till at least the second round of the Semis.

2;Bulldog Breed has problems flipping robots OOTA? ARE YOU KIDDING??? Did you not see it in the TTT; you know, the one where it flipped Pussycat clean out of the ring? Its near impossible to do that at any rate (Chaos 2 never managed it anyway, neither could M2). TAN is much bigger than cat, so its Bulldogs for the taking.

3;OK, TANs tyres might be expendable, its wheels overall are NOT! Even if it DID beat Bulldog, it wouldnt last 10 seonds with X-terminator.

The other predictions I do agree, though its much more likely that Tornado will face Gravity, and I think it will then beat it. X-terminator then trashes Bulldog to win through too.

Predictions

Well your entitle to your opinions but in all honesty I dont agree. (Well, I know that obvious)

Tornado gets flipped constantly, certainly in previous series, so agression will be a big factor and a few flips should do the trick.

TTT? Well it couldnt do it to Infernal Contraption, HARD or Kat 3 and its the most recent version thats in the warzone!

TAN wouldnt lat 10 seconds, I beg to differ. One hold and it will be about 3 SECONDS before mr XT iis down the pit.

[dinowarrior]

Predictions

Reply time.

1;So what. 4 or 5 flips. Thats not going to compare to 40 or 50 hard rams. Besides, one of those pushes might be into the pit.

2;It NEARLY did with IC, it only didnt cos it was the wrong place in the arena. Hard is way too small and kept going the wrong way and Kat 3 kept righting out of the way.

3;You try holding onto something with an incrediably powerful flywheel. Besides, it wont be TAN fighting XT, it will be BB, Im sure! (not a spoiler).

You can argue all you want, and I DO except you have the right to make predictions, but when Raging Knightmare is pitted and/or TAN goes flying OOTA, dont expect simpathy from me, OK? Im just telling you.

Sounds cool i just hope my favourites, Bulldog Breed, do well.

Predictions

Chris, its just his OPINION. Just drop it.

[matty_haka]

Predictions

Thanks Frank, and I agree with you, however, unfortunately, Iam one of those people who when being attacked likes to return the favour.

You say one of those pushe might be in the pit. So what, one of those flips might be OOTA. Who knows? Not me and certainly not you either.

You make excuses for BB and excuses dont work, if you say I couldnt do it because they were to small that means that you arent going to beat any of the small robots and therefore you have a weakness and weaknesses cant be excused!

As for TAN, if hes fighting BB, BBs weakness will come back, especially against an invertible robot. Yeah hell get agression points but that counts for nothing when youre in the pit.
Against X-t, if hes in the claws, hell either not reach anything that can be damaged, hell hit the same spot over and over, possibly shearing a panel, so what?! Or hell have the disc itself grabbed, or TAN wont grab it from the front in the first place

[maddox]

Predictions

Matty, to shear of a panel of TAN any robot will be hard pressed.Even SOW ot Typhoon 2.
No,the frame is the chassis, and everything is welded completely.Even the softer welds are about 300NM/mm², and the total length and thickness are a lot of mm²

About the wheels. its about impossible to destroy one of those so it cant act like a wheel. part of the idea. A disk will grind into it, rip out pieces, but it will still be able to put any resemblanvcce of drive on the floor.

[Guest]

Predictions

All the talk of whether Knightmare will beat Tornado etc. is completely irrelevant as anyone who visited the five website over the past few weeks would surely know.

[Guest]

Predictions

Er...which Chris are you talking to, Frank?

[matty_haka]

Predictions

Thanks for confirmation on that Mario:-)

That was my argument on the wheels, but Mr Mason here decides he knows better than the team themselves!

[dinowarrior]

Predictions

Besides, IC looks like a little S3 and Hard is shaped like Wild Thing, and THEY couldnt be flipped OOTA very easily.

Tornado will beat Knightmare, Bulldog will beat TAN and THATS FINAL!(non spoiler)

[dinowarrior]

Predictions

OH yeah, and something else.

How on earth can you expect TAN to get Bulldog down the pit? It couldnt with Robochicken*, and Bulldog is way more powerful drive wise than Robochicken.

*The only reason it DID pit RC was that it then stopped trying to prevent pitting; it knew it would win anyway. Bulldog cant do that
