Week 10 Predictions!

Post by succotash_54 » Mon Jan 08, 2007 8:10 pm

Team Omegaforce vs. Team Fire-And-Ice

Paul will have his hands full, but John won't win these easy either.

1. Sovereign vs. Gayle.

Gayle has struggled with wedges, and an uber-wedge like this one is gonna spell disaster.

My prediction: Sovereign by a Knockout at 1:33

2. JAKT vs. Shockwave

There's no place really for Shockwave to grab onto JAKT, except for maybe the plow, but with that hinged, it'll be hard to control him.

My prediction: JAKT 35-10

3. Adrenaline vs. Flaminco

Again, not a lot of luck for Flaminco with that wedge. He might do some good with it, but it'd be an uphill battle the whole way.

My prediction: Adrenaline 27-18

4. Copperhead vs. Cascade

If Cascade can keep Copperhead airborne, he's got it, but he'll have to pull out all the stops in his RP.

My prediction: Cascade 23-22

Team Animal Cruelty vs. Team Concept Robotics

Philip will probably get all four by forfeit, but let's go optimistic here.

1. Pit Bull vs. Prodigy

Pit Bull's a quick little mover, and with the bottom of Prodigy inverting back inward makes Prodigy a big target for thwacking and wedging.

My prediction: Pit Bull 38-7

2. The Aristocrats vs. Bling 2K

If TA doesn't move a whole lot, those hinged wedges could fend off the wedge on Bling 2K. The length of Bling 2K makes him most susceptible to the hammer hits.

My prediction: The Aristocrats by Knockout at 2:22

3. Babaganoush vs. Devil's Reject

Again with the Thanksgiving turkey analogy. Once you catch him, he's good as dead.

My prediction: Babaganoush by Knockout at 0:35

4. Yellow Cloud vs. Colonel Kickass

YC can outmaneuver CK, and as the good armor, too.

My prediction: Yellow Cloud 39-6

Team Blood Gulch vs. Team Targeted

I don't know why, but I think these four fights will be among the most fun.

1. Zombie Killer vs. Prof. Pepperdine

The speedy wedge will have to do some pretty evasive driving to keep from getting tossed and bossed around. PP will have to pull out all the stops.

My prediction: Zombie Killer 24-21

2. Rooster Teeth vs. FSBDS

Fun with spinners. Oh joy.

My prediction: FBSDS 23-22

3. Redemption Denied vs. Tank

Sorry Tank. No chance to avenge yourself against ToC, and though you'll win, you won't savor beating up ToC's Down's Syndrome ridden brother.

My prediction: Tank 28-17

4. It vs. Eurypterus

PWNAGE by pusher

My prediction: Eurypterus by Knockout at 2:14

Team Gemini vs. Team AC/DC

Ooh, these will be rough on both RPers. They'll really have to think and strategize to get through this one. Good luck to both you guys.

1. Red Zone vs. Double Dose

Tough ones here. DD will get the damage category. RZ may get strategy, but it'll be a close one.

My prediction: Double Dose 23-22

2. Sunshine vs. AMP

I dunno. I think Chris has confidence in the ability to kill spinners, but it'll take a lot to kill this one.

My prediction: AMP by Knockout at 1:27

3. Striker vs. Some Kind Of Monster

The only way Striker will lose is if the treads tear himself up.

My prediction: Striker 32-13

4. Jack Frost vs. Road Rage

That's a nasty disc, and Road Rage won't be able to handle it, I don't think

My prediction: Jack Frost by Knockout at 1:43

Team Hunga vs. Team "Yellow Alert"

Dylan's got some solid bots, and so does Nick. These have potential.

1. Underall vs. Exotherm

Control may be an issue for both bots, but Underall can handle anything thrown at it.

My prediction: Underall 35-10

2. My Hands Are Abandoned Factories Manufacturing Heartbreak And Hate For The World vs. Influenza

The spinner's the story on this one.

My prediction: Influenza by Knockout at 1:33

3. Giant Swan vs. V'Ger

Neither bot was really designed to take on the other. Tough one to call, if Dylan RPs with GS this time.

My prediction: V'Ger 25-20

4. Japanese School Girl vs. In the red square.... MINION!

JSG all the way.

My prediction: Japanese School Girl by Knockout at 1:55

Team Hitmen vs. Team Andrewbot

Anthony may get all four by forfeit, but if Andrew RPs and puts effort into them, he'll make in interesting.

1. Novastorm vs. Corrosive

Anthony will have to drive well for this one, but a victory should be possible. Corrosive will knock some armor about, though.

My prediction: Novastorm 27-18

2. Shovearound 2 vs. Disc Obsession

Shovearound 2 may have some fun with this, but he's still got to drive carefully. A knockout isn't out of the question though.

My prediction: Shovearound 2 34-11

3. Aquarius vs. Poly-Stone

If Andrew RPs, and puts thought into it, this one's his.

My prediction: Poly-Stone by Knockout at 2:21

4. AK-47 Slapper vs. Snewer Sake

I don't care for either bot all that much, but I think satellite dish has a good chance.

My prediction: AK-47 Slapper 25-20

Week 10 Predictions!

Post by Area51Escapee » Mon Jan 08, 2007 8:31 pm

Actually, I don't have any confidence at all in killing spinners. At least not from Sunshine. I didn't expect to win against Rooster Teeth and I was delightfully surprised to beat FBSDS. However, AMP is a top notch full body spinner, so that's gonna be the toughest. Oh, and I fight Influenza next week, eh? Dear lord. Good thing I gave up on Sunshine a long time ago.

Damn it, no. I hope I don't lose to FBSDS, Rooster Teeth was just starting to get into the thick of things.

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

hahaha, I've basically given up on FBSDS when he lost to Heartbreak and Hate a couple weeks ago, but maybe I should pay more attention to him...
