Cherry Bomb Classic - Discussion; Update: 7/21/16 - deadline, rules, and house bots/arenas!

I'm quite gutted about Chewer loosing by a house robot K.O but it did give Moonraker a run for it's money, so I'm pleased he did really well to even have a good shot against the opponent, maybe some adjustments could be made for him to make it more dangerous. Steelvor will face Red Snake Of Death, I actually preferred him than The Four Elements. It will not be easy but I'll certainly be a lot more careful in this battle.

Wow, how did that happen

Of course, Scylla losing means the bot I care most about goes up against Alex's friggin' melty-FBS... great.
It's certainly no picnic to fight, but there is one thing that can be done against it, and you have the perfect weapon for it imo. If anyone can beat Mordor, it's Vesta

I just saw this in Drop Zone's fight:

Quote:
 
The next time Drop Zone wedges under the front wedge plate of Capitol Punishment, the latter waits for Drop Zone's lifter to be raised, backs off slightly and rams its dustpan under the lifter before it can retract.


Someone point to where DZ's lifter is, because I never included one.
Thats my bad, im rewriting the fight as I post this. NWOWWE's RP said "Hey a boring 1 powered lifter" so I assumed that was the case.
Well it was a rather hasty oversight by me when I was looking at the bots. I was in too much of a hurry when I did my RPs and Drop Zone just looked so much like a lifter :P

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.

Well, Circuit Breaker had a good run. It was definitely surprising to me that a 'borrowed' design (thnx Wolf 51-50, BTW!) that I statted with a poor control ratio actually made it this far!

Trust me, for the next big tourney (R4?), I will have my s**t together!

Well basically I'd be playing the same waiting game Scylla would be, sadly. It didn't go very well for him, as you saw.

While I'm looking forward to that match in terms of challenge, I'm not looking forward to it terms of dealing with a hammer like that.
Wins: a bunch
Losses: more every week!

Well I know you've got some ridiculous elaborate plan for it anyway. In my current demotivated state I'm not expecting anything less than being KO'd. :P

3/5 bots in the quarterfinals isn't bad, even if I didn't expect two of the three that made it to have gone that far :v:

next time I enter Debilitator (read: probably never) it'll be fixed so that the spinner actually extends past the wedge :v:

I've never lived by anyone's rules but my own.
A very intense week lies ahead. I have 4 bots still but, having gotten skunked in the semifinals so many times, I will naturally worry until I manage to make it past them.

I'd say you could feel pretty confident in your fight against K. Rool at the very least. :P

Sorry about dropping off the face of the planet for several days! I was sick for pretty much all of New Years weekend. I know I probably should've posted on Saturday asking someone else to do my results, but I was waiting to see if it could clear up so I could write them on Sunday, or worst-case Monday.

Also, three wins! Yay! And ROFL at Endgame. I was considering the possibility of him trying to bait me into charging him through the doors, but refusing to come out at all and then attacking a house robot?

Anyway... shit, another fast brick for Sekhmet! How do I even keep beating these things?

Funerary Precession is fighting Broken Ghost, which isn't the worst thing in the world, but it does have a strong plow. this arena could make things difficult for me with the lack of space contributing to pinballing, but could also leave him with less room to maneuver.

And YOU DIED FINALLY got drawn against something that isn't a spinner! I can actually use my other configurations! And with two snakes in the playoffs, Ornstein may get a chance to shine as well!
