LoRE 2: The Other Electric Boogaloo - Discussion

Post by **Badnik96** » Wed Apr 23, 2014 4:43 pm

I've always been a fan of cool and crazy acronyms like this.

Thinking of the same basic 4 weight classes, with a custom arena and a twist: One special match each week, to keep things interesting, with it ranging from grudge matches to showbot duels to rumbles.

Going to use same rules as Lian for stats, with the 5 categories and 30 points.

Since Kody said he's not going to run The Contagion until the tourney after Crazy Bots, I've decided to hop in line again.

I won't fuck up the schedule that bad this time guys, I promise :D

Sure, why not

LW: No idea.
MW: Braveheart the Third, if I can get it finished.
HW: Probably Kraze again.
SHW: Another no idea.

I do wish I could churn out effective designs as quickly as others can, without having to worry about how they look.

LW: Troubloon
MW: Jinx, maybe. Or SeC if I'm feeling crazy enough.
HW: Killobite, hopefully. If not, either Mass Hypnosis or SZF.
SHW: Master of Savagery

early team considerations

as for other robots, well... you can count on Count Bleck for being a showbot :P

Please tell me that's the actual name of the tournament.

LW: I haven't recycled O'Malley yet, maybe it's time to go back to the Blood Gulch theme well.
MW: Kind of thinking Harbinger if I can decide how I want to improve it.
HW: Could go either with a re-worked King K. Rool or a re-worked G.R.O.S.S. depending I'm feeling about it.
SHW: I thinking Godfather Part III (though redrawn again most likely)

If I need a showbot I could try to remake Baron Once Bad Then Good Then Bad Again Now Something Else Beaver from the old rumble league. Obviously a showbot needs as obnoxious a name as possible.

Take the newest Kraze, with the dazzle paint and LED side lights, both of which won't help it fight any better at all. Or Jesus Built My Hotrod, which looks awesome as hell, if I do say so myself, but has proved to be not all that great in battle. Still I refuse to give it a wedge.

Here's my team plans:
LW: Unnamed K2 Clone
MW: WhipCoil 5
HW: Malevolence 4
SHW: Doomerang

OK- after reading about it, I've decided that I could potentially enter. The 30 point limit suits me, and it's a chance to improve on my shambolic performance last time, too.

Don't know what I could enter (Suggestions are welcome.), but I'll probably use some newer machines. In particular, I think Lyra could do well.
