Cosmic Thunder 2 (13) vs. X-Terminator 3 vs. Crash Trashing Robot vs. Axetra Back to Rock III (29) vs. Cobalt vs. Tsunami vs. Spin Dash Unleashed
SUMMARY
Round 1 Eliminator 1
Despite having no srimech, X-Terminator manages to avoid the lifters and flippers of Cosmic Thunder and Crash Trashing Robot, while inflicting some major sparkage on Chris' robot. Cosmic Thunder after a while manages to get under Crash Trashing Robot and eject it from the warzone. Then the rest went to a judges decision, where X-Terminator barely survived.
Cosmic Thunder 2 = 46/75 X-Terminator 3 = 16/75 Axetra = 13/75
Cosmic Thunder 2 (13) and X-Terminator 3 advance to Round 2!
Eliminator 2
Poor Tsunami never got a chance in this fight. All three robots turned on it immediately and all the saws and discs in the fight chewed it up. It was given a formal burial down the pit, then Cobalt attacked Spin Dash Unleashed front-on. The wedge came out the stronger and the disc disabled Spin Dash's saw, from which Cobalt then shoved Spin Dash into Damocles' CPZ, who disabled Spin Dash after numerous hits from the drums. Back to Rock then pushed Cobalt down the pit afterwards in a cheap shot. ;D
Back to Rock III (29) and Cobalt advance to Round 2!

Round 2, Battle 1 Cosmic Thunder 2 (13) vs. Cobalt
Roboteers, stand by…
House Robots: Triple Whamlet and Damocles
3… 2… 1… ACTIVATE!
Both robots go for each other right away. They have similar drive setups and meet right in the middle of The Battlegrounds. Neither of the two zero ground clearance wedges can get under each other. Frank and Alex both back their robots away, with Cosmic Thunder 2 then surging forwards and getting under Cobalt! Cosmic Thunder drives forwards quickly, but Cobalt gets away just before the flipper is fired. That close to the arena wall, it could have been an early exit for Cobalt! The two robots turn and circle each other, before the long wedge of Cobalt gets under Cosmic Thunder 2. Frank drives on forwards, and flies right under Cosmic Thunder 2, with the spinning weapon already at its maximum 500rpm. With its back turned towards Cosmic Thunder 2, Alex takes the opportunity to drive under the 30mm yawning ground clearance and flip Cobalt over! The lifting bar quickly turns Cobalt back over, but Cosmic Thunder 2 is there again to flip Cobalt… into Damocles!
CRASH!!!
The spinning drum on the front of the house robot knocks Cobalt away, causing some sparks! Again, Cobalt self-rights and this time drives away quickly to avoid another attack. The unique flywheel style weapon starts to spin up again, as Cosmic Thunder 2 starts to pursue its opponent. The seeded robot gets under the side of Cobalt and flips again! Cobalt spins through 360° in the air and crashes back right side up. The Team Bored robot turns sharply to avoid another attack, and creates an opening to attack itself, driving forwards and catching one of the side skirts of Cosmic Thunder 2 with the flywheel. It didn’t seem like much of a hit, but part of the skirt has definitely peeled upwards! Alex turns his robot right round and flips Cobalt almost instantly afterwards! Cosmic Thunder then begins to push Cobalt towards the wall again… but Cobalt rolls away with its self-righting arm. Cobalt dashes away to spin up again, followed closely by Cosmic Thunder 2. The two robots dance around each other, trying to find a moment to attack. It is Cobalt that does so first, driving full steam into the side of Cosmic Thunder 2…
CRASH!!!
Good attack by Cobalt! The spinning weapon caught the previously damaged skirt and this time ripped it right off its hinges! Frank reverses his machine and attacks again, but the weapon is too slow to cause any damage this time. Cosmic Thunder 2 manoeuvres off the wedge and neatly scoops up Cobalt, pushing it with the wedge shape… and flips it into the CPZ of Triple Whamlet! The house robot fires all three axes onto the top of Cobalt! Cosmic Thunder 2 drives in again and flips Cobalt deeper into the CPZ. Triple Whamlet catches Cosmic Thunder 2 on its plough and the axes now come down onto the other competitor! Alex is clearly unhappy and Cosmic Thunder swiftly flicks the house robot over onto its side! Cobalt self-rights, but it is stuck between a rock and a hard place and Cosmic Thunder promptly fires its flipper again, throwing Cobalt over the fence.
CEASE!
Cobalt is halt…ed! ;D Cosmic Thunder 2 (13) advances to the Heat G Final!

Round 2, Battle 2 Back to Rock III (29) vs. X-Terminator 3
Roboteers, stand by…
House Robots: Renegade and Ancalagon the Black
3… 2… 1… ACTIVATE!
Both robots immediately start spinning up their vertical spinning weapons. X-Terminator is the first to physically head towards Back to Rock III, with the Dutch robot joining in the charge soon after. The big X-Terminator is outmanoeuvred by Back to Rock III, who has one goal in mind – get to the sides and flip it over! Team Varying Every Day’s robot gets under the side and starts lifting straight away… but X-Terminator’s large size helps it to slide off the lifter quickly. X-Terminator turns and slams its flywheel into the side of Back to Rock III!
CRASH!!!
A fantastic hit by X-Terminator! As the sparks scatter away, a huge vertical gash is apparent on the side of Back to Rock III! But Back to Rock III shrugs off the blow and goes on the attack its self, using the lifter to raise X-Terminator up… and over right onto its back! The flywheel skitters across the floor, as Back to Rock III spins in victory. It is all over as quick as that, as Renegade comes in and buries its axe into the base of X-Terminator 3. Ancalagon the Black ominously approaches, while Renegade moves to open up the pit. The Team DarkZlayerz leader grabs X-Terminator in its huge crushing jaws and gives it a quick toasting, before promptly shoving it across The Battlegrounds and into the pit!
CEASE!
X-Terminator would be better off as a Californian governor! ;D Back to Rock III (29) advances to the Heat G Final!
