3 finals down and just ONE more to go! Red Zone, X-Combat and Revolver Ocelot have all emerged victorious so far, but who will be joining them? It all comes down to the age old question "Spinner or rammer?" Well, we are about to find out which one it will be right now when rising star, Drive, takes on experienced veteran Japanese School Girl. Will Japanese School Girl win it for the spinners in this competition or will Drive tie it up for the rammers? Here we go, the final showdown: Drive - Team Picus ![]() Round 2 - Beat Toxic Hazard 9-2 Quarterfinals - Beat Bad-Ass Barnacle 9-2 Semifinals - Beat Reflector Shield 7-6 Previous success: ARC: Reckoning finals ARC: Aftermath semifinals Japanese School Girl - Team Hunga ![]() Round 1 - Beat Road Rage 14-1 Round 2 - Beat Death Chamber's Revenge 8-1 Quarterfinals - Beat Solar Smash 10-2 Semifinals - Beat Copperhead 7-5 Previous success: ARC: Vengeance champion ARC: Annihilation champion ARC: Revolution semifinals |

Tough call... but I think JSG would just do too much damage to not win a JD. |
| There are few crimes in our modern society that merit public beating. Interrupting someone's enjoyment of Messiah to request "Jingle Bells" by the Singing Dogs is irrefutably one such offense. | |

Middleweight

JSG's weapon is way too much for Drive's armor to handle. |

Drive is tough bot to be sure, but I've never thought those wedges were the best. And don't forget those bunched up wheels (not a great idea for a rammer). I'll give it to JSG. |

Despite Drive's great armor, the extreme lowness I think will be more of a problem. He doesn't anything to control the weapon, so the top of his armor will probably get destroyed. |

There's a room where the light won't find you...

Although this is probably a pointless argument, I'm not overly convinced *anything* with a weapon power of 14 can be made to work without either not working, or breaking before it can work, or breaking while it works. |

I voted Drive because fuck JSG. |

Okay I confess. I've been trolling with my votes. |

Thankfully, the trolling will stop here. |
