Week 2 Spreads

LW

Eudial vs. Redline

First big test for Redline against a power spinner, and oh boy is it a tough one. I’m thinking Eudial lands the KO here.

Eudial-75%


Zombie Killer vs. Cuddle Time

It seems more likely that the big wedge should win out over Cuddle Time’s clamp set up. He who controls this fight the most will win.

Zombie Killer-80%


Frequency vs. Scorching Rage

A lack of reliable hazards isn’t going to do SR many favors here. If Frequency can hit the exposed edges reliably, this one won’t be pretty.

Frequency-75%


Zadkiel vs. Silver Phantom

Zads is in another weapon on weapon free for all! He should be able to outlast his opponent this time however.

Zadkiel-85%


Veto vs. Dead

More super spinner vs. spinner mayhem! I think I’ll go neon green here, but this is a bit of a toss-up.

Veto-60%


Mr. D vs. Translaytor

There’s going to be all kinds of carnage this week and we’re still only in the LWs! I think Translaytor takes this one.

Translaytor-80%


British Bammer vs. Conqueror

You won’t find a more British fight than this! I think Conquerors speed will be too much to deal with here.

Conquerer-75%



MW:

King Dedede vs. Marauder

LMAO… the best than can be said for Dedede is that there aren’t many hazards for Marauder to abuse.

Marauder-90%


Tiki Dude vs. Warwolf

Tiki Dude is either going to kill or be killed. It’s going to be tough for him to get Warwolf with its high speed though.

Warwolf-75%


Latvian Gambit vs. Upchuck

This is a tough fight to figure out. If Gambit can control the fight well it could be a landslide, but if Upchuck starts tossing him everywhere you can say the same for him. Ugh.

Upchuck-55%


Merry Hampton vs. Tesla’s Revenge

I don’t see much that Tesla is going to be able to do here. And it’s a rough arena for him to boot.

Merry Hampton-90%


Braveheart vs. Glass Cannon

Braveheart just has to live long enough for GC to kill itself. I think he’ll manage to hold out.

Braveheart-65%


Jinx vs. Suplex

Kody will kill me for this, but I’m not convinced Suplex will be able to consistently get a good hold of Jinx here.

Jinx-70%


Airtime vs. March or Die

I think MoD’s speed will be the big deciding factor in this fight.

March or Die-75%



HW:

Barley Picker vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

Two vert spinners! All right! I think Barley Picker is more stable over all and has better weapon range, but it could be close.

Barley Picker-70%


Powerbar vs. Kraze

Looks like Power Bar is in for a repeat of last week :/

Kraze-90%


Lashcoil vs. Chimera

I’m going to lean towards the faster Lashcoil. Whoever can exploit the hazards better should take this one and I think Lash has better control potential here.

Lashcoil-70%


Redemption Denied vs. Brute Force

Holy hell Brute Force is fast, but has pretty limited control. That could cost him here.

Redemption Denied-75%


Shrek vs. Golden Blaze

Well Shrek can do one thing pretty darn well and that’s wall spinners. Doesn’t look like there’s much for Golden Blaze to do.

Shrek-90%


Rocket Knight vs. Shadow Zone Forever

Wow, this one should be really damn close. I think Shadow Zone might just prove a bit too fast for Rocket Knight to keep up with, but who knows?

Shadow Zone Forever-55%


Klarinette vs. Rampage

Klarinette just seems to have too many advantages here. I think it’ll run away with this one.

Klarinette-90%



SHW:

Meat Rub King vs. Angry Goat

If Angry Goat didn’t have such abysmal turning…

Meat Rub King-85%


Chemical Explosion vs. Libra

LMAO

Chemical Explosion-95%


Dat Dog vs. Mack the Knife

Dat Dog doesn’t have much in terms of hazards to work with, so he’ll have to hope to keep Mack under control most of the fight.

Dat Dog-60%


Endgame vs. Nitro Express

ENDGAME DOESN’T GET HYPED, HE STAYS HYPED!

Nitro Express-90%


Mandetta vs. Stabstract

Pushy pushy yawn yawn. Guess I’ll go Stabstract here in split decision no one will read. :P

Stabstract-55%


Uridium vs. Pathos

Pathos might just be way too fast for Uridium to really get the hammer in play.

Pathos-70%


Agent X vs. Desolation

I’m cheering for Nick to be a cheap bastard??? Look what you’re making me do Badnik! Eh I think Agent X can hold up long enough.

Agent X-65%

I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

uh oh...

Editing because predictions
Week 2

Lightweights

Eudial vs. Redline

if Redline gets reeealy lucky, he can stay in there and block up the blade. but even then it probably wont last all match

Eudial = 75%


Zombie Killer vs. Cuddle Time!

ZK is a fast SOB, but if I clamp him, I can control him, and my robot can keep itself forward pretty well

Cuddle Time! = 50.25%


Frequency vs. Scorching Rage

There's a whole lot of corners to catch on, even if scorching Rage is pretty shallow

Frequency = 55%


Zadkiel vs. Silver Phantom

Silver Phantom's weapon may die after 5 hits, but he's mobile and a shell spinner.

Silver Phantom = 60%


Veto vs. Dead

I'm still not convinced that dead can even drive :P

Veto = 75%


Mr. D vs. Translaytor

can Mr D even hit him?

Translaytor = 80%


British Bammer vs. Conqueror

The hammer can barely hurt Conqueror, and that thing is fast

Conqueror = 70%


Middleweights


King DeDeDe vs. Marauder

I'm still not sure how marauder works, but his stats work against Dededededededede in pretty much every way

Marauder = 90%


Tiki Dude vs. WarWolf

Very close, but with only 8 armor, IDK if WarWolf can survive 5 hits

Tiki Dude = 51%


Latvian Gambit vs. Upchuck

this is close. Latvian has a slight control advantage, and is invertable, so I'll go in his favor

Latvian Gambit = 53%


Merry Hampton vs. Tesla's Revenge

Merry has every advantage here. I just dont think the SOB design works on ARC

Merry Hampton = 80%


Braveheart vs. Glass Cannon

GC is crazy powerful enough to pull this close. It'll definitely be a fan favorite by the end of the tournement

Braveheart = 60%


Jinx vs. Suplex

I dont know how to predict anything that involves Suplex if he's not facing a spinner. it's so weirdly shaped that clamping and wedging may or may not actually work

Even odds


Airtime vs. March or Die

Under usual circumstances, I'd pick the rear hinged flipper in a fight like this. but, March or Die has a huge control advantage, which should let him get to the sides of Airtime

March or Die = 67%


Heavyweights


Barley Picker vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

I like Barley Picker

Barely Picker = 55%


Power Bar vs. Kraze

:dawg:

Kraze = 102%


LashCoil vs. Chimera

I think I can get under him if I follow my strategy

Chimera = 54%


Redemption Denied vs. Brute Force

there's gonna be a UFO in that box

Redemption Denied= 90%


Shrek vs. Golden Blaze

GB hurts my head, and the translational movement hurts its running away ability

Shrek = 80%


Rocket Knight vs. Shadow Zone Forever

SZF has less wheels and is invertable.

Rocket Knight = 60%


Klarinette vs. Rampage

Too much stat points wasted on that hammer

Klarinette = 88%


Superheavyweights


Meat Rub King vs. Angry Goat

I can dream :v:

Meat something = 77%


Chemical Explosion vs. Libra

This one could be interesting, and will be decided upon first contact

Chemical Explosion = 80%


Dat Dog vs. Mack the Knife

Mack makes me angry because it looks like a MW to me. if DD keeps the wedge forwards, he has this one

Dat Dog = 70%


Endgame vs. Nitro Express

NE is boxy, so it could be OHKOed. who knows how the strategy points would go?

Nitro Express = 75%


Mandetta vs. Stabstract

more torque, and some sort of lifter apparently?

Mandetta = 63%


Uridium vs. Pathos

Pathos is fast, but he cant push uridium too well, and he is vulnerable to the hammer

Urudium = 51%


Agent X vs. Desolation

I'll always root for the Glass Cannon

Desolation = 53%

Week 2

Lightweights

Eudial vs. Redline

In reality this is just a matter of how long it is until Redline gets KO'd. His armour isn't enough, and he's not getting around a 360 degree weapon, which can be said for a few other robots in the LW class as well. Expect Redline to flop against Frequency and Veto as well.

Eudial = 85%


Zombie Killer vs. Cuddle Time!

I actually don't know. IF Cuddle Time! gets the lifter under and clamps, he could have ZK, since lifters > hinged wedges. But c'est possible? Zombie Killer is a tricky SOB, and even while his front wheels are off the ground, he might still be able to hold his own.

Zombie Killer = 65%


Frequency vs. Scorching Rage

Shitty arena for Frequency to be in. Can he KO Scorching Rage before being flipped?

Scorching Rage = 60%


Zadkiel vs. Silver Phantom

Okay, help me out here. Silver Phantom gets +2 to its shell, making its 7 weapon armour 9. Zadkiel gets +4 to its disc, making its 6 weapon armour 10. SP has 14 wep, Zadkiel has 13 wep... AAAAARRRGGH!!! Well Zadkiel might have better speed and traction, but it's unprotected where the disc isn't. SP will manage to hit him eventually...

Silver Phantom = 65%


Veto vs. Dead

Fuck...

Veto = 95%


Mr. D vs. Translaytor

Translaytor is gonna MESS. HIM. UP.

Translaytor = 90%


British Bammer vs. Conqueror

While that axe looks threatening, Conqueror has the clear leverage advantage here. Sorry TBR, Conks to bounce back after its Week 1 loss.

Conqueror = 75%


Middleweights


King DeDeDe vs. Marauder

LMAO

Marauder = 95%


Tiki Dude vs. WarWolf

Mystic has this is spades. He just has to survive for 5 hits and then Tiki Dude will kill its own weapon and be helpless. :v:

WarWolf = 90%


Latvian Gambit vs. Upchuck

So Latvian's lifter doesn't hold opponents well! This looks more like Upchuck's fight now.

Upchuck = 65%


Merry Hampton vs. Tesla's Revenge

Call me crazy but I think Tesla can manage to hang on here.

Tesla's Revenge = 60%


Braveheart vs. Glass Cannon

When you've got such low control against one of the better and more armoured rammers in the tournament, you better pray some miracle happens.

Braveheart = 90%


Jinx vs. Suplex

That axle looks perfect for Jinx to latch onto, but can she doing anything with it? Suplex has a decent amount of torque.

Jinx = 55%


Airtime vs. March or Die

This looks like a repeat of T-Minus vs. Double Agent. Actually not really. March or Die has a better wedge than Double Agent could dream of having.

March or Die = 70%


Heavyweights


Barley Picker vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

YES! TWO VERTICAL SPINNERS! And sadly I might have to go with the spambot here, there's more for JC to grab on BP than vice-versa.

Jackelyn Cryderman = 70%


Power Bar vs. Kraze

Is Power Bar going to play masochist-bot this tourney?

Kraze = 99%


LashCoil vs. Chimera

LashCoil has to be careful not to get flipped here, otherwise he'll have a big disadvantage because that top jaw only has so much coverage. It's still pretty goddamn close.

Chimera = 51%


Redemption Denied vs. Brute Force

High speed means nothing if you can't control it. RD to flip him all around.

Redemption Denied= 90%


Shrek vs. Golden Blaze

Shrek lost last time because he took too many hits and got flipped. Golden Blaze can't do that. Shrek to shove GB everywhere while Jackelyn Cryderman watches with mild interest.

Shrek = 90%


Rocket Knight vs. Shadow Zone Forever

You'd think this arena would be good for SZF since there's no hazards to take advantage of his crappy 5 armour, right? WRONG! Perhaps you forgot about the floor flippers, which can cause impact damage, or the spikes that replaced the air jets!! Rocket Knight is impervious to those!!

Well, not being flipped, because then RK attains a major disadvantage. But is it possible for SZF to do that? RK is no slouch.

Rocket Knight = 60%


Klarinette vs. Rampage

I USED TO IDOLIZE YOU!!! *punch*

Klarinette = 95%


Superheavyweights


Meat Rub King vs. Angry Goat

Any dank meme name playzooki uses automatically nets him a -5% disadvantage. :v: Except Shrek, because Shrek is okay.

As for the match, no amount of torque can save the Angry Goat. Not even the spirit of New Cruelty to will come to his rescue!

King Rub Meat = 95%


Chemical Explosion vs. Libra

*TBR does a hula dance on top of the shattered remains of Libra*

Chemical Explosion = 95%


Dat Dog vs. Mack the Knife

welp, the Dawg certainly proved he was capable of taking out Nitro Express. How will he fare against a similar, but more powerful, spinner?

Dat Dog = 51%


Endgame vs. Nitro Express

Bots don't always fall on their sides. Except when they do.

Murphy's Law.

Nitro Express = 80%, because Nitro might get OHKO'd and it goes to a JD :v:


Mandetta vs. Stabstract

Mandetta has a weak lifter. Which grants him the advantage.

Also, I'm automatically giving this match to Spatula. :v:

Mandetta = 65%


Uridium vs. Pathos

Are you kidding? Mystic going 3-1? It's more likely than you think.

As it is, the front of Pathos is just too much for Uridium to get a clean shot in, and Pathos probaly won't even let him get to the front anyway.

Pathos = 75%


Agent X vs. Desolation

Terry Ewert was going to give you a Team Whyachi pit shirt, Dylan. But he decided against it, because your SoW clone is a pile of junk. :v:

Agent X = 90%

I don't know enough about all the bots or the way the stat system works to make predictions on all of them, so I think I'll just stick with predictions for my bots for the time being.

Veto vs. Dead

It's gonna be utter delirium in the arena. Lots of destruction both ways. But I've got a blade designed specifically for undercutters like him.

Veto - 65%.

Airtime vs. March or Die

I should have put much more effort into designing Airtime, because making a direct ripoff of T-Minus isn't gonna translate well into this tournament.

MoD - 80%

Rampage vs. Klarinette

Are we all in agreement that Klarinette is unbeatable?

Klarinette - 100%

Nitro Express vs. Endgame

I predict this going the same way as Nightmare vs. Slamjob. One hit and both robots immobilized.

50/50
TEAM METAL MELTDOWN:

FRR: Backlash
Veto: 2-0

Week 3


LW:

Translaytor vs. Frequency

This looks to be all Frequency. He’s got better weapon reach and more reliable drive.

Frequency-85%


Scorching Rage vs. British Bammer

Unfortunately for Bammer, Scorching Rage has too much armor for his axe to really do much, even if he can keep pace.

Scorching Rage-80%


Cuddle Time vs. Zadkiel

If Cuddle Time can keep the plow in Zads face enough he can pull this one off. If he lets that disc hit anywhere else this will get ugly in a hurry.

Cuddle Time-55%


Silver Phantom vs. Redline

Too bad for Toxic that Silver Phantom is going to blow itself up before it can do enough damage to Redline. No 0-4 for Badnik this week!

Redline-90%


Eudial vs. Veto

Ugh. Two of the most destructive bots in the tourney and they have pretty similar designs and stats. Fuck this shit.

This one is a Pick ‘em


Dead vs. Conqueror

Tough arena draw for Conqueror here. Dead can wreck havoc on Conqueror’s armor and Alex can’t get much return on that from hazards.

Dead-65%


Zombie Killer vs. Mr. D

Welp.

Zombie Killer-95%



MW:

Upchuck vs. Braveheart

This fight should be a good one. If Upchuck can flip over Braveheart he should be able to take control of the match.

Upchuck-60%


Suplex vs. Marauder

Eh, nope.

Marauder-90%


Tesla’s Revenge vs. King Dedede

Tesla is going to be in constant danger of a one hit KO from Dedede’s hammer. Jinx was able to hold off the same threat, but Tesla isn’t quite as well protected.

King Dedede-60%


WarWolf vs. Jinx

As much as it pains me (oh shut up Kody lol) I’m thinking this one goes to WarWolf. Its got great drive and a solid flipper.

WarWolf-80%


March or Die vs. Merry Hampton

I think Merry is still rather meh when inverted, but the trick is actually getting that far. This won’t be too exciting of a match anyway.

Merry Hampton -60%


Glass Cannon vs. Tiki Dude

Here you go Kody, THIS is a fight to write a double KO for :v:

Glass Cannon-65%


Latvian Gambit vs. Airtime

Probably not the most exciting match you’ll see. I like Latvian Gambit’s extra speed to help him control the fight enough to win.

Latvian Gambit-70%



HW:

Brute Force vs. Kraze

I think Brute Force is going to be settling in for a repeat of his flipping beatdown from Redemption Denied.

Kraze-90%


Shadow Zone Forever vs. Shrek

Oh thank god it’s not LoC. I think Shadow Zone has the indisputably better wedges, which should be enough.

Shadow Zone Forever-70%


Rocket Knight vs. Lashcoil

Oh wow, such close stats. Lashcoil has the better weapon array, but it’s anyone’s guess as to who gets under who more often.

Lashcoil-55%


Golden Blaze vs. Barley Picker

Golden Blaze having the better range is probably going to make all the difference here.

Golden Blaze-70%


Chimera vs. Klarinette

Oh, Land of Confusion you say? WELL HOW INTERESTING! Well I guess I’ll go with the boring champion.

Klarinette-80%


Jackelyn Cryderman vs. Redemption Denied

Redemption Denied is probably low enough to slip completely under JC’s disc. Another flipping clinic seem imminent.

Redemption Denied-85%


Rampage vs. Power Bar

Another win for Power Bar? It’s more likely than you think.

Power Bar-65%



SHW:

Desolation vs. Meat Rub King

Blarg

Desolation-80%


Pathos vs. Dat Dog

Another case where 4WD static wedge is going to cost Dat Dog.

Pathos-95%


Nitro Express vs. Mandetta

The drum can’t really hope to do all that much to Mandetta so Nitro is pretty much just going to get slammed around.

Mandetta-90%


Uridium vs. Agent X

Oh wow, Uridium just needs one good shot on Agent X’s chassis to end the fight. I think he can get it.

Uridium-70%


Angry Goat vs. Chemical Explosion

Lol well I think we might end up seeing some wheels go flying.

Chemical Explosion-80%


Mack the Knife vs. Endgame

Kaboom!

Mack the Knife-95%


Stabstract vs. Libra

With some good double team tactics, Libra could make this one interesting. I think I still lean towards the rammer a bit, but it’s pretty close actually.

Stabstract-55%

Week 3


Lightweights


Translaytor vs. Frequency

Going against the grain. Reach isn't everything; there's more for Translaytor to hit on Frequency than vice-versa. I'm going to have to take note. :v:

Translaytor = 65%


Scorching Rage vs. British Bammer

The bad luck for the Bammer continues.

Scorching Rage = 80%


Cuddle Time! vs. Zadkiel

Agreeing with Josh. The plow can take some punishment while otherwise CT! can clamp Zadkiel and drag his sorry ass around. :v:

Cuddle Time! = 65%


Silver Phantom vs. Redline

Well Silver Phantom will explode. The question is will Redline die before that? Signs point to no.

Redline = 75%


Eudial vs. Veto

Eudial allegedly has the better wedge(s), Veto has better armour. Eudial has a slight edge in weapon range but Veto has that curved set-up. Both weapons will probably go out and then Eudial will try shoving. Not that she'll be very successful at it, but hey.

Eudial = 51%


Dead vs. Conqueror

If GF93 can tell me how Conqueror is going to be able to approach this without getting knocked the fuck out, I will give him a blue Jolly Rancher. :v:

(no not really)

Dead = 85%


Zombie Killer vs. Mr. D

I thought he killed zombies, not Digletts.

Zombie Killer = 100% (lock)


Middleweights


Upchuck vs. Braveheart

Depends on how Upchuck can deal with Braveheart's mini-wedge attachments. I think he'll get the flip early on, though. Can Braveheart's thwacking offset that? Not likely.

Upchuck = 70%


Suplex vs. Marauder

It's not gonna happen.

Marauder = 95%


Tesla's Revenge vs. King Dedede

Actually, I'm gonna go with Tesla here. Dedede's hammer barely extends out past the wedge, meaning if he goes head-on, he's gonna hit Tesla's saw arm, which is 9-armoured. He needs to outflank Tesla to go that precious OHKO. I doubt that's possible.

Tesla's Revenge = 75%


WarWolf vs. Jinx

If Jinx keeps the forks down and pointed at WarWolf she's got an excellent chance. At least WarWolf isn't a spinner. :v:

Wow my pathetic bag of crap could likely go 3-0? What kind of mad world is this?

Jinx = 70%


March or Die vs. Merry Hampton

March or Die's wedge is better than any of Merry's. Prepare for a flipping, Mr. Brandybuck!

March or Die = 80%


Glass Cannon vs. Tiki Dude

Fuck you I'm not writing this fight. :v:

Glass Cannon = 90%


Latvian Gambit vs. Airtime

The MW champ is still looking for his first win... yowzers. I think he can finally get it here against this fellow 0-2 bot.

Latvian Gambit = 75%


Heavyweights


Brute Force vs. Kraze

Poor Kraze finally gets a reprieve here. Too bad there's no Cutie Honey here to comfo... wait, Kraze went after Klarinette. NICK YOU TRAITOR. :qq:

Kraze = 95%


Shadow Zone Forever vs. Shrek

Shrek is low but as Josh said, SZF has the better wedges. The only thing Shrek has going for it is its huge armour value. He needs to abuse hazards.

Shadow Zone Forever = 70%


Rocket Knight vs. LashCoil

LashCoil to lift RK around and all over the arena.

LashCoil = 75%


Golden Blaze vs. Barley Picker

I... have to agree with Josh again. Golden Blaze's sheer range means that Barley Picker is in immediate danger of being OHKO'd from the get-go, whereas Barley has to get under GB to hit him, pretty much. Plus fanking won't do any good, GB's weapon is 360 degrees... urgh...

Golden Blaze = 90%


Chimera vs. Klarinette

LIAN WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME HATE KLARINETTE YOU LITTLE TWERP :qq:

Klarinette = 90%


Jackelyn Cryderman vs. Redemption Denied

JC can potentially get stuck on its side, and RD is too low to get hit front-on anyway. RD to end JC's short maiden run.

Redemption Denied = 85%


Rampage vs. Power Bar

Power Bar to go 2-1?! Jesus christ. Poor Brian, though. Rampage is a cool bot. It's just not statted adequately. :(

Hopefully we see Rampage return with better stats. :)

Power Bar = 90%


Superheavyweights


Desolation vs. Meat Rub King

LMFAO.

Meat Rub King = 95%


Pathos vs. Dat Dog

Mystic's SHW is really a surprise, and it continues to move up in the world. This week is no exception, because Dat Dog's lack of wedge touching the ground will cost him.

Pathos = 90%


Nitro Express vs. Mandetta

Nitro just doesn't have enough weapon power to hurt Mandetta enough.

Mandetta = 75%


Uridium vs. Agent X

One hit is all it takes. 13 power axe to 6 armour. What a mismatch.

Uridium = 85%


Angry Goat vs. Chemical Explosion

I don't know, actually. Goat's turning is complete nonsense, but... could Chem catch an edge? Could Chem dewheel him? Goat has torque for days.

Chemical Explosion = 51%


Mack the Knife vs. Endgame

Mack to be de-knived, but win anyway.

Mack the Knife = 95%


Stabstract vs. Libra

Stabstract actually needs to abuse the front wedge more. The dual ends of the twins are tricky.

Stabstract = 60%

LW:

Translaytor vs. Frequency

Translaytor has the force of his entire body behind the hit, and his sides are curved... close...

Translaytor-55%


Scorching Rage vs. British Bammer

Doesnt matter how many corners Scorching Rage has if BB can barely hurt him

Scorching Rage-75%


Cuddle Time! vs. Zadkiel

Gotta keep that plow in his face

Cuddle Time-55%


Silver Phantom vs. Redline

I dunno if Redline can take all 5 hits. but I suppose it's possible

Silver Phantom- 53%


Eudial vs. Veto

I like veto, but this is pretty much even

Veto- 50.1%

Dead vs. Conqueror

Bad arena for this, but Dead doesnt have 360 degree protection.

Dead-60%


Zombie Killer vs. Mr. D

Is he even RPing for Mr. D?

Zombie Killer-100%



MW:

Upchuck vs. Braveheart

Close, but braveheart doesnt like being upside down.

Upchuck-55%


Suplex vs. Marauder

Marauder will have some trouble getting under Suplex, but it wont matter in the end

Marauder-85%


Tesla’s Revenge vs. King Dedede

smashey smashey.

King Dedede-65%


WarWolf vs. Jinx

I like the options Jinx has, but will it let it win?

WarWolf-70%


March or Die vs. Merry Hampton

Darned wedgebots being all wedgey. if MoD can keep Merry from getting to its sides, this could switch around.

Merry Hampton -60%


Glass Cannon vs. Tiki Dude

This'll be fun :P

Glass Cannon-75%


Latvian Gambit vs. Airtime

LG has the control advantage, but that didnt matter last time :v:

Latvian Gambit-60%



HW:

Brute Force vs. Kraze

Brute force is the only robot in this tournament that turns worse than Angry Goat. and that's just because it goes so fast.

Kraze-94%


Shadow Zone Forever vs. Shrek

I think that being 2WD will give shrek an advantage here

Shrek- 52%


Rocket Knight vs. Lashcoil

RK doesnt have a huge hinged wedge in the front to keep him from getting grabbed

Lashcoil-65%


Golden Blaze vs. Barley Picker

I like Barley Picker, but not this time

Golden Blaze-65%


Chimera vs. Klarinette

:qq:

Klarinette-95%


Jackelyn Cryderman vs. Redemption Denied

It'll be close, but RD is so short

Redemption Denied-65%

If- and only if- Rampage can survive the first hit, he can beat it.

Rampage- 52%



SHW:

Desolation vs. Meat Rub King

Too many corners on Meat

Desolation-80%


Pathos vs. Dat Dog

why no hinged wedge, man?

Pathos-95%


Nitro Express vs. Mandetta

I think Nitro's drum is being discounted here. but it also doesnt have any side protection

Mandetta-60%


Uridium vs. Agent X

SMASHEY SMASHEY

Uridium-70%


Angry Goat vs. Chemical Explosion

Wait, I might actually win something with this!

Angry Goat- 55%

Week 4


LW:

Mr. D vs. Cuddle Time

I mean come on, who doesn’t want to cuddle up with Mr. D?

Cuddle Time-95%


Redline vs. Zadkiel

Redline was able to tough out Silver Phantom last week, but Zads isn’t going to kill himselfand has a backup wedge. I’m feeling Redline on the wrong end of a close fight this time.

Zadkiel-70%


Frequency vs. Zombie Killer

Frequency’s best (and probably only) hope is to get around the plow. I’m not seeing that happen though.

Zombie Killer-90%


Veto vs. Silver Phantom

People die when they are killed

Veto-85%



British Bammer vs. Translaytor

I think Bammer’s run of tough luck will continue here, but he might have a chance if he can get Translaytor wedged.

Translaytor- 75%


Conqueror vs. Eudial

Conqueror escaped Dead, but it was a very close call. Expect him to get similarly torn up here, but if he can find a way to get in a flip…

Conqueror-55%


Dead vs. Scorching Rage

I have a feeling that front gap is going to be Scorching Rage’s undoing here. The damage potential is immense.

Dead-70%




MW:

Suplex vs. Tesla’s Revenge

Well the saw isn’t gong to do fuck or shit and quite frankly I don’t think Tesla can get Suplex in the dustpan effectively anyway. EAT! SLEEP! SUPLEX! REPEAT!

Suplex-75%


Airtime vs. Upchuck

Oh man, we’ll be seeing some bots going sky high here! Flip2win

Upchuck-65%


Merry Hampton vs. Latvian Gambit

The arena sucks for a matchup like this. Gambit’s tread drive might give the slight edge here.

Latvian Gambit-55%


Marauder vs. WarWolf

WarWolf easily has the more effective weapon. If Marauder can’t keep the red flipper under control this could end poorly for him.

WarWolf-60%


Jinx vs. Glass Cannon

Welp. Okay if Jinx can actually smother Glass Cannon somehow, then it should win. But that’s WAY easier said than done.

Glass Cannon-70%


King Dedede vs. March or Die

With limited damaging hazards available, Dedede has a good chance at controlling the damage category, it’s just a matter of what happens with the other two categories.

March or Die-60%


Tiki Dude vs. Braveheart

That weapon is just going to bounce off Braveheart so…

Braveheart-95%




HW:

Brute Force vs. Rampage

Let’s see how long Brute Force can dance away from Rampage’s clutches.

Rampage-60%


Kraze vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

Kraze has an odd habit of fighting spinners the week after Redemption Denied does. JC FF’ed last week, but would be in a better position to actually hurt Kraze, but JC’s dubious flipper defense still has me wary.

Kraze-70%


Power Bar vs. Chimera

I’ve just gotta say no to Power Bar this week.

Chimera-90%


Redemption Denied vs. Golden Blaze

RD should win if he can keep Golden Blaze soaring through the air with the greatest of ease.

Redemption Denied-70%


Klarinette vs. Rocket Knight

Dammit Lian! :P

Klarinette-80%


Barley Picker vs. Shrek

I guess I shouldn’t underestimate Barley after last week, but Shrek’s low profile really worries me in this matchup and there’s plentiful hazards to make use of.

Shrek-75%


Lashcoil vs. Shadow Zone Forever

Uh oh, trouble could be brewing for Shadow Zone here. It’s going to be very close either way.

Lashcoil-55%




SHW:

Libra vs. Nitro Express

Oddly I feel most confident for Kody to grab a win in SHW of all weight classes, but it’s still far from a sure thing.

Libra-55%


Endgame vs. Dat Dog

LOL

Endgame-80%


Agent X vs. Pathos

My gut tells me that Agent X’s more efficient weapon will be the difference maker here and let Nick rebound from a brutal loss last week.

Agent X-65%


Stabstract vs. Angry Goat

Stabstract should be too fast for Angry Goat to keep up with.

Stabstract-75%


Mandetta vs. Mack the Knife

The bonus armor wedge is still apt to get cut up by Mack’s weaponry. Oh did ya hear about Louie Miller, he disappeared yeah, after drawin’ out, all his hard earned cash…

Mack the Knife-60%


Meat Rub King vs. Uridium

Well no easy kill for Uridium this week. At least he doesn’t have much in the way of hazards to worry about so he could very well win this one.

Uridium-65%


Chemical Explosion vs. Desolation

Meh

Chemical Explosion-80%

Week 4


Lightweights


Mr. D vs. Cuddle Time!

I actually see a Mr. D win here, but if CT! can keep him occupied...

Mr. D = 55%


Redline vs. Zadkiel

Meh, I think Redline has a shot here. He just has to not take too many hits that expose corners. :v: Zadkiel doesn't have the best armour, so any hazard will do a fair amount.

Redline = 60%


Frequency vs. Zombie Killer

The place where the plow starts to wrap around the body of Zombie Killer actually counts as a corner, btw, because of the sharp-ish angle. It's too bad Frequency's weapon power isn't enough to take advantage of that. I guess he could try to get around the plow...

Zombie Killer = 75%


Veto vs. Silver Phantom

VETO! VETO!

Veto = 95%


British Bammer vs. Translaytor

Wow TBR just can't catch a break can he? :(

Translaytor = 85%


Conqueror vs. Eudial

A flip isn't the end of the world for Eudial, but it doesn't help her control matches either. On the other hand, 15 weapon to 9 armour...

Eudial = 65%


Dead vs. Scorching Rage

Wow, 10 armour and he still has the risk of being OHKO'd.

Dead = 80%


Middleweights


Suplex vs. Tesla's Revenge

Why you gotta do this to me Badnik? ;__;

Suplex = 75%


Airtime vs. Upchuck

Upchuck has the more viable design and stats here. Look for him to rebound from last week's close call.

Upchuck = 75%


Merry Hampton vs. Latvian Gambit

This is Latvian's fight. Merry has terrible ground clearance and inferior wedges.

Latvian Gambit = 85%


Marauder vs. WarWolf

WarWolf gets a flip, the match is pretty much his. Marauder staves off a flip, the match is his.

Marauder = 55%


Jinx vs. Glass Cannon

Oh good grief. 5 hits for Glass Cannon to die, huh? Is it even possible for Jinx to survive ONE hit?

Glass Cannon = 95%


King Dedede vs. March or Die

Dedede continues to get dealt a raw deal. Maybe if he can dent up MoD's wedge/flipper... I don't know.

March or Die = 65%


Tiki Dude vs. Braveheart

Yeah okay.

Braveheart = 95%


Heavyweights


Brute Force vs. Rampage

Uncontrollable fury versus a jack-of-all-stats axebot... hmmmmm...

Brute Force = 65%


Kraze vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

Not the most ideal draw for Kraze but he should still be able to get this.

Kraze = 60%


Power Bar vs. Chimera

And this is where things start going really badly for Toxic. :v:

Chimera = 95%


Redemption Denied vs. Golden Blaze

Can GB even hit him? This is like an even more lopsided version of the fight above!!!

Redemption Denied = 100% (lock)


Klarinette vs. Rocket Knight

Actually I'm gonna go with Rocket Knight. The torque advantage could very well help him here.

Rocket Knight = 55%


Barley Picker vs. Shrek

Barley Picker needs to get the front end underneath Shrek and pop him over. How he'll do that... is a complete mystery.

Shrek = 85%


LashCoil vs. Shadow Zone Forever

Again, not Shadow Zone's ideal opponent but should still be manageable, especially coming off of a Rocket Knight win. Granted, LashCoil is more of a counter but can he catch SZF?

Shadow Zone Forever = 51%


Superheavyweights


Libra vs. Nitro Express

Josh, you can't bullshit a bullshitter. :v:

Nitro Express = 95%


Endgame vs. Dat Dog

I take back what I said about things going badly for Toxic. :v:

Dat Dog = 95%


Agent X vs. Pathos

Tough draw for Pathos. Agent X by far has the superior lifter.

Agent X = 80%


Stabstract vs. Angry Goat

I actually think Goat has the better wedge. Can he get it into play? Uhhhh...

Stabstract = 60%


Mandetta vs. Mack the Knife

Mack's weapon is going to be a pain for Mandetta. A lot of cuts on the armoured wedge and it'll be Pathos all over again, except Mack will win this time. :v:

Mack the Knife = 75%


Meat Rub King vs. Uridium

Alex, beat down this piece of shit for me, will ya? :P

Seriously, King has only enough armour to take a few hits. He needs to get some flips going or this won't well.

Uridium = 75%


Chemical Explosion vs. Desolation

Meh.

Chemical Explosion = 80%

You just never know if conkers can get under a spinner before the spinner tears him a new one

even odds


Dead vs. Scorching Rage

he gonna be dead

MW:

Suplex vs. Tesla’s Revenge

Neither of these robots are conventional, but I think that tesla's hinged wedge will have a slight advantage over the thwack-based wedge of Suplex

Tesla's revenge- 55%


Airtime vs. Upchuck

I feel that this all will come down to who gets the first flip. I think Upchuck's better mobility will let it do that, but airtime has a longer flipper arm, so this will be close

Upchuck-52%


Merry Hampton vs. Latvian Gambit

Why can I never remember which robot Merry Hampton is?

Latvian Gambit-60%

This will be close, but not in an entertaining way

HW:

Brute Force vs. Rampage

If JC gets flipped, it will lose mobility and traction, what with just 2 omni wheels in the back. but Kraze has to get the flip in

Kraze-55%


Power Bar vs. Chimera

yay I'll probably win this!

Chimera-85%


Redemption Denied vs. Golden Blaze

The whole translational movement thing is really gonna hurt GB again here

Redemption Denied-90%

Klarinette only needs to flip RN over once to gain a huge advantage. that does involve RPing on time, though :v:

Klarinette-60%


Barley Picker vs. Shrek

Good luck hitting him

Shrek-70%


Lashcoil vs. Shadow Zone Forever

I see this going very similarly to my match with him, except SZF has better drive stats

Shadow Zone Forever- 55%




SHW:

Libra vs. Nitro Express

If Kody can keep to the sides of Nitro, he could eek out a win... maybe...

Libra-51%


Endgame vs. Dat Dog

Toxic will need a broom to take his robot out of the arena. endgame will need to stay upright. I dont really know what will happen here

Dat Dog- 60%


Agent X vs. Pathos

Pathos is cool, and could succeed here

Pathos- 60%


Stabstract vs. Angry Goat

why did I make Angry Goat exist :suicide:

Stabstract-99%

Mack is such a solid design, and Wedges have trouble against vertical spinners

Middleweight
Alright, I'm gonna try my hand at this prediction thing!

Lightweights:

Mr. D vs. Cuddle Time!

Cuddle time has really tough armor, but that clamp just seems too small to be effective against Mr. D. He could tank enough hits to push it to a JD, and maybe make it close, but I'm not that confident he can pull off a win.

Mr. D - 70%

Redline vs. Zadkiel

Zadkiel is a good robot, but Redline is just too fast for him to get any real hits in.

Redline - 80%

Frequency vs. Zombie Killer

This could be close, but in the end, ZK is too tough.

Zombie Killer - 65%

Veto vs. Silver Phantom

3 Spinners in a row for Veto!

Veto - 80%

British Bammer vs. Translaytor

That hammer won't be very effective against Translaytor I'm afraid.

Translaytor - 75%

Conqueror vs. Eudial

How long can Conqueror last against that deadly blade? This one's tougher to call, but I think Eudial will be too much of a match for Conqueror.

Eduial - 60%

Dead vs. Scorching Rage

Scorching Rage is what its owner is gonna feel after this fight.

Dead - 85%

Middleweights:

Suplex vs. Tesla's Revenge

Those wheels on Suplex look awfully tasty. Tesla will eat well this fight.

Tesla's Revenge - 80%

Airtime vs. Upchuck

Upchuck has the speed advantage, I have the weapon power advantage. Upchuck has the low skirts, I've got an extra long front spatula. I've got a much higher ground clearance, and he's more maneuverable. It's gonna be close, but I'm not too terribly confident this fight.

Upchuck - 57.5%

Merry Hampton vs. Latvian Gambit

Latvian Gambit I think will be able to control Merry well enough to win.

Latvian Gambit - 75%

Marauder vs. WarWolf

Won't exactly be a thrilling fight. But I gotta go with Marauder's torque advantage

Marauder - 70%

Jinx vs. Glass Cannon

There's gonna be shrapnel littering the arena floor.

Glass Cannon - 80%

King DeDeDe vs. March or Die

That hammer is very flawed in design.

MoD - 80%

Tiki Dude vs. Braveheart

Yeah... this won't even be close.

Braveheart - 95%

Heavyweights:

Brute Force vs. Rampage

That large turning circle on Brute Force will hurt it badly. I should be able to avoid his charges, but if he does get me, I'm in trouble.

Rampage - 65%

Kraze vs. Jackelyn Cryderman

The only chance Kraze has is if it gets a flip in right at the start. But if it does, it will run away with the fight. If not, it will have a much tougher time. Will be very close.

Jackelyn Cryderman - 55%

Power Bar vs. Chimera

Power Bar's winning streak is coming to an end I'm afraid.

Chimera - 90%

Redemption Denied vs. Golden Blaze

RD plays the part of the spatula, GB plays the part of the burger.

Redemption Denied - 95%

Klarinette vs. Rocket Knight

I still think Klarinette is unbeatable. But Rocket Knight will make it really interesting.

Klarinette - 65%

Barley Picker vs. Shrek

Barley Picker is an awesome design. But Shrek is so low, it won't be able to do much at all to it.

Shrek - 80%

LashCoil vs. Shadow Zone Forever

I think Shadow Zone is gonna completely boss LashCoil around.

Shadow Zone Forever - 85%

Super Heavyweights:

Libra vs. Nitro Express

2 Robots to fight? Twice as much opportunity to destroy. Will be an awesome fight for sure.

Nitro Express - 65%

Endgame vs. Dat Dog

Whoops...

Dat Dog - 90%

Agent X vs. Pathos

Agent X is a brilliant design. Too much for Pathos.

Agent X - 75%

Stabstract vs. Angry Goat

Who thought Angry Goat was a good idea?

Stabstract - 99.9%

Mandetta vs. Mack the Knife

If he can get around to the sides, those blades will make mincemeat of Mandetta's wedges. Mandetta is quick though.

Mack The Knife - 60%

Meat Rub King vs. Uridium

I hate the name Meat Rub King.

Uridium - 80%

Chemical Explosion vs. Desolation

Hehehe...

WEEK 5

LW:

Eudial vs. Scorching Rage

On the bright side, this one should be over pretty quick.

Eudial-95%


Zadkiel vs. Veto

I’m guessing Zads will go overcutter here. But Veto hits harder and is more durable. That will make all the difference.

Veto-85%


Mr. D vs. Frequency

Frequency used Slash! Critical hit! Mr. D fainted!

Frequency-95%


Cuddle Time vs. Redline

If Cuddle Time can replicate his successful plan from the Zombie Killer fight, he’ll take this one too.

Cuddle Time-75%


Translaytor vs. Dead

It’s all down to if Translaytor can keep himself alive long enough for Dead to kill itself. I’m thinking he can.

Translaytor-65%


Zombie Killer vs. British Bammer

That hammer could have some fun with ZK’s armor, but Bammer can keep pace with ZK at all with its average speed and almost non-existent acceleration.

Zombie Killer-80%


Silver Phantom vs. Conqueror

Hey another spinner for Conqueror! This one doesn’t hit quite as hard as the previous ones, but ironically is the only one that can kill itself! After surviving Eudial, I have pretty high hopes for the flipper here.

Conqueror-90%




MW:

March or Die vs. Suplex

Kind of an oddball match. I might give a slight edge to Suplex overall, but it’s a tough one.

Suplex-55%


Braveheart vs. Jinx

Jinx can’t do crap with its own hammer here, so we’ll have to see how well Kody can clamp.

Braveheart-85%


Upchuck vs. Tiki Dude

I’m pretty sure Upchuck can tough this one out and flip/slam Tiki Dude enough to exploit the poor armor.

Upchuck-80%


WarWolf vs. Tesla’s Revenge

If WarWolf can keep stringing the flips together he can run away with this one, and he’s got the speed and control to do it.

WarWolf-70%


Airtime vs. Merry Hampton

Merry Hampton doesn’t like flippers, but he’s more than quick enough to exploit Airtime’s less than optimal flipper design.


Glass Cannon vs. Marauder

You better buff that plow up real nice Alex because some shit is going down. It’s going to be a KO one way or the other.

Marauder-55%


Latvian Gambit vs. King Dedede

Dedede can actually hurt Gambit with the hammer and if he can hit the chassis enough… eh, it’s still going to be an uphill climb.

Latvian Gambit-65%




HW:

Lascoil vs. Klarinette

Ugh, given this is in Casino Night Zone, Lashcoil’s armor bonus could end up costing it here. But it’s a big tossup as to who will get under who more often.

Klarinette-55%


Shrek vs. Redemption Denied

Two low as fuck designs going at it. RD does have the benefit of being able to flip Shrek while Shrek doesn’t have many hazards to try and make use of.

Redemption Denied-65%


Shadow Zone Forever vs. Barley Picker

Unfortunately for Alex, I’m not seeing much positive for him to work with here. He could cause some havoc with SZ’s base armor, but it’ll be a job and a half just getting there.

Shadow Zone Forever-85%


Chimera vs. Brute Force

Talk about opposite philosophies! One is slow and controlled, and the other is blazing fast but erratic! I guess it’s against the grain to go for the slower bot, but I’ll do it.

Chimera-60%


Golden Blaze vs. Kraze

I should almost make every comment for a Kraze fight against a spinner “Well he’s not as low as RD so…”. However, I think Kraze is tough enough to win this.

Kraze-70%


Jackelyn Cryderman vs. Rampage

Rampage just doesn’t have good enough armor to save itself from JC’s disc.

Jackelyn Cryderman-80%


Rocket Knight vs. Power Bar

Man, remember when Power Bar was winning all those fights? I guess it’s a shame reality set in.

Rocket Knight-95%




SHW:

Nitro Express vs. Angry Goat

Maybe this week I should stop being so hard on Angry Goat. I actually think it has a pretty decent shot at winning here.

Angry Goat-70%


Mack the Knife vs. Libra

There’s gonna be a whole lotta cuttin’ going on here. The Libra clusters are going to get wrecked by Mack’s weapon. Of course that door swings both ways as Mack doesn’t want to take shots from Libra either.

Mack the Knife-60%


Agent X vs. Meat Rub King

Bleh, death to crappy memes!

Agent X-70%


Dat Dog vs. Mandetta

That static wedge just isn’t going to cut the mustard here.

Mandetta-95%


Desolation vs. Stabstract

Welp

Stabstract-90%


Uridium vs. Chemical Explosion

One way or the other this fight is ending in a KO. I’ve got a bit more confidence in CE scoring the win overall though.

Chemical Explosion-65%


Pathos vs. Endgame

Pathos has too many corners. Spin2win

Endgame-85%

I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Week 5


Lightweights


Eudial vs. Scorching Rage

Yeah this isn't going to end well.

Eudial = 95%


Zadkiel vs. Veto

Zadkiel... MIGHT want to try overcutter. I don't know at all if his disc can reach over Veto's blade and hit the motor, nor if he has the range. Either way, it's gonna be a close one. Zadkiel's wedge is also better than Veto's...

Veto = 51%


Mr. D vs. Frequency

lol

Frequency = 100% (lock)


Cuddle Time! vs. Redline

As long as CT! does what he did with Zombie Killer he should be fine.

Cuddle Time! = 55%


Translaytor vs. Dead

Translaytor can take more hits than Dead can.

Translaytor = 75%


Zombie Killer vs. British Bammer

I might finally give the benefit of the doubt to British Bammer. 11 weapon to 7 armour is gonna hurt... not to mention warp Zombie Killer's wedge to the point where he can't use it well. Can ZK get to the sides of BB? It's possible since he's faster, but BB does have perfect control so...

British Bammer = 60%


Silver Phantom vs. Conqueror

An easier spinner for Conqueror but he still has to be careful, 4 points of weapon over the armour is still not fun.

Conqueror = 65%


Middleweights


March or Die vs. Suplex

I'm thinking MoD is gonna angle in and throw Suplex all over the arena.

March or Die = 70%


Braveheart vs. Jinx

Braveheart hates being inverted, so Jinx needs to use the forks. Jinx's shape also kinda discourages thwacking sicne there's little to catch on but hey. Also that axe isn't doing fuck-all.

Jinx = 55%


Upchuck vs. Tiki Dude

Actually Tiki Dude could one-shot Upchuck but it's no given. We shall see.

Tiki Dude = 55%


WarWolf vs. Tesla's Revenge

Tesla's been on a downward spiral and this week looks no kinder to him. Which is a shame because I really like that fucking design.

WarWolf = 70%


Airtime vs. Merry Hampton

Both of these guys are far better than what they've shown. I think Airtime's flipper could do some impact damage to Merry's 8 body armour, provided he gets a flip.

Merry Hampton = 51%


Glass Cannon vs. Marauder

Ugh, sorry Alex.

Glass Cannon = 55%


Latvian Gambit vs. King Dedede

Can that hammer even reach over the lifting plow? Dedede's woes continue.

Latvian Gambit = 75%


Heavyweights


LashCoil vs. Klarinette

Klarinette's in trouble here, LashCoil's pronged lifting set-up looks perfectly capable of getting underneath Klarinette and bossing the three-time champ around. If he tries to clamp though, I'M AFRAID I'VE GOT SOME BAD NEWS!!

LashCoil = 70%


Shrek vs. Redemption Denied

Okay so who's getting under who here?

Redemption Denied = 55%


Shadow Zone Forever vs. Barley Picker

9/9 to 6/3 speed/traction... I don't think I've ever seen that before. Barley Picker could stay in his square but that invites SZF to slam him with the armoured plow. TBR and Powerdrive, you guys oughta look away from this one...

Shadow Zone Forever = 90%


Chimera vs. Brute Force

Angered Mystery and Turgor were the best uncontrollable bots. Leave the huge speed/traction disparities to master Max. :dirk:

Chimera = 75%


Golden Blaze vs. Kraze

I'm thinking Golden Blaze's weapon power isn't enough here.

Kraze = 80%


Jackelyn Cryderman vs. Rampage

I'm seeing shades of Nightmare vs. Slam Job.

Jackelyn Cryderman = 95% (I'm getting surprisingly competent at typing out this robot's name :v: )


Rocket Knight vs. Power Bar

Rocket Knight to rocket through.

Rocket Knight = 100% (lock)


Superheavyweights


Nitro Express vs. Angry Goat

Goat actually has too many advantages here for Nitro to do much.

Angry Goat = 80%


Mack the Knife vs. Libra

Ugh. Maybe Libra could warp one of Mack's teeth and cause weapon instability? Who knows...

Mack the Knife = 75%


Agent X vs. Meat Rub King

Agent X may be boring as hell but he's still better than a dank meme. :V:

Agent X = 85%


Dat Dog vs. Mandetta

Static wedge against hinged wedge. That's quite an epic fail, sorry Toxic.

Mandetta = 100% (lock)


Desolation vs. Stabstract

Easy peasy.

Stabstract = 100% (lock; there's a lot of these this week)


Uridium vs. Chemical Explosion

Both have the power to OHKO the other. Uridium needs godly accuracy for his, though... CE for the KO!

Chemical Explosion = 80%


Pathos vs. Endgame

Win2spin

Endgame = 95%
