Pinstripe vs. HIRricane
I'll use Mecanum Power (tm) to keep my spinner facing HIRricane at all times, and try to approach it such that, if it is spinning, our weapons collide and HIRricane is knocked backwards by the impact into one of the hazards. I'll keep doing this until I have a chance to hit and smother HIRricane whi...

Ruination: The Upheaval - Discussion
2-2 week! Not bad. Since everyone's doing a a summary of how their robots are doing so far, here's mine: Pinstripe: It started off well but is now regressing to a record closer to what I expected from it. I think it's a good concept but it needs some refinement with the wedge especially. The...

Speed Bison vs. Phantasmic Slammer
Speed Bison is using its fork setup. I think/hope this gives it a pretty decent wedging advantage. We're about the same speed, so I'm not likely to be able to flank Phantasmic Slammer very often. Instead, I'll just go for it head on. If it's trying to flank me I may be able to hit it from the side, ...

Sinmill vs. Dysprosinator
Dyspro isn't going to be able to get around my blade: I'll do my best to make sure that's the case. I'll also keep away from the walls as much as I can so I can spin freely. My goal is to wear Dyspro down with repeated hits. It will be quite difficult for it to get good enough leverage on Sinmill to...

Magica vs. The Maw
This would be a really tough matchup if Pyro were still around >_> If he does show up, here's my strat: Be as aggressive as possible for them aggression points, hope I out-wedge that flipper (not impossible: mine probably has more weight on the ground and as sharper teeth) and shove Magica around wi...

Pinstripe vs. Anti-Virus
I'll do my best to keep facing Anti-Virus by circling around and using Mecanum Power (tm). If AV comes at me with the forks, they're relatively wide compared to the teeth on my plow so I have a decent chance of getting under at least one and hitting it. If I do, I'll do some serious damage (it's a 6...

New trial-focused tournament?
I don't really know how it would work as far as the judging goes, but I too like the idea. I like that there's potential for some new kinds of designs.

Metal Heck vs. Speed Bison
Speed Bison's plow is wide enough and strong enough to tank Metal Heck's spinner quite well, no matter how it angles it. I'll aim to do that while pushing MH into the hazards and keeping it under my control. I'll charge Speed Bison into Metal Heck at the start of the match before it can spin up all ...

Chad the Inhaler vs Sinmil
Vlad the Imp... I mean Chad the Inhaler has 4 armor. Yes, four. Sinmill has 15 weapon power. Fifteen minus four is eleven. According to the damage scale, at a weapon-armor differential of 6 or greater, each hit causes catastrophic damage and threatens a knockout. Eleven is greater than six. I think ...

Magnolia Pico vs The Maw
The Maw's got a driving advantage over Magnolia Pico, which I'll do my best to exploit to the purpose of flanking it and pushing it into hazards. I'll also try to launch it with my pushing ram into the walls or hazard corners to show additional aggression and "damage." If I'm having a lot ...

Experiment 626 vs. Pinstripe
Oh lord. Well E626 only 28% faster than Pinstripe in these speed rules so that's a plus. I've also got the mecanum thing so I'll be able to keep Pinstripe facing E626 nearly all of the time. Its anti-VS wedge will have a slightly harder time getting under my plow than its wedgelets would. My best ch...

Ruination: The Upheaval - Discussion
2-2, as I hoped! So far, Pinstripe has way outperformed my expectations, The Maw has done a little worse than I hoped, Sinmill... well that one was a gamble and it certainly has room to turn things around, and Speed Bison is doing everything I could have expected from it and more. Good times...

Panzer v Speed bison
Using the forks here. That pickaxe is actually kind of scary, but Speed Bison is so much faster than Panzer Strike that I should be able to consistently avoid it. I'll aim to get around to its side and shove it into the hazards, specifically the hammer and the spinner. I'll lift Panzer Strike a bit ...

Sinmill vs Hazardous Waste Removal
I don't know if HWR is using its plow or not, so I'll assume it is. In any case, it seems our weapons spin in the opposite direction, so this should be interesting. HWR is more of an undercutter, but Sinmill will have more range. My aim will be to first go for those front corners and the try to take...
