I'm so stoked to see my hometown hero SOW back in action. Warrior Clan can sod off :)

Terry's reason for leaving was bullsh** to begin with, and the fact that he's back with SOW and not quite a clan of warriors, more a duo of Warriors shows.

Apparently SOW's weapon spins at 200mph. Not sure if I could accept that or not.

As a friend of mine said, you try and keep the favourites alive until the last episode, so Ghost Raptor is going through hell to make the top 4 again.

Those that are blank are going to be left blank because I haven't seen the robots or the seen the upgrades. The others are based around what is shown in the trailer.

Beta vs. Lucky ------ Beta, I want to believe
Bite Force vs. Mohawk ------ Bite Force
Black Ice vs. Tombstone ------ lol
Blacksmith vs. Bronco ------ Bronco, that hammer did very little damage that I could tell
Bombshell vs. Complete Control ------ Bombshell, goon projects always fail
Bucktooth Burl vs. Chrome Fly ------ Chrome Fly, wtf is that other thing and why is it in a fighting robot competition?
Captain Shrederator vs. DeathRoll ------ Deathroll
Chomp vs. Disk O'Inferno ------ Disko, the hammer looks way too top heavy
Escape Velocity vs. OverDrive ------ No idea. Both look really cool actually, and I wish we got to see each for longer.
HyperShock vs. UltraViolent ------ Hypershock
Icewave vs. SubZero ------ Hmm.... Icewave?
Minotaur vs. Photon Storm ------ Razer
Nightmare vs. Stinger ------ Stinger, wow what a crap matchup. They must really hate Nightmare.
Obwalden Overlord vs. Warhead ------ I don't like the new Warhead but I think they'll put a point on the board this time.
The Ringmaster vs. Ultimo Destructo ------ UD
Splatter vs. Warrior Clan ------ Fuck WC

Bucktooth is basically a drumbot, if you click on the picture they show in the main thing you can get a better image of it. The fur doesnt't come into the arena.

This is not knowing half these bots, I'm sure I'll go back and fix my predictions eventually.

Beta vs. Lucky
Bite Force vs. Mohawk - Mostly because I don't like Bite Force
Black Ice vs. Tombstone - Black Ice is getting sent back to space
Blacksmith vs. Bronco - Sucks that these bots got matched against eachother.
Bombshell vs. Complete Control - Fuck Complete Control
Bucktooth Burl vs. Chrome Fly - I have no faith in the drone, but who knows.
Captain Shrederator vs. DeathRoll - There is a lot of area on Death Roll for Shrederator to take a bite out of.
Chomp vs. Disk O'Inferno - Can't wait to see Thwomp bring that weapon down on that stupid disco ball design of Disk o's weapon
Escape Velocity vs. OverDrive - I don't know what to make of Escape Velocity. Overdrive just drilled a hole through an ingot and put it between two wheels, lets see how it works.
HyperShock vs. UltraViolent - What does UltraViolent even do?
Icewave vs. SubZero - Yeah, no.
Minotaur vs. Photon Storm - Good luck trying to grab them when they turn the drum to full power and gyrodance around you
Nightmare vs. Stinger - Stinger has the speed and tenacity to last and eventually get Nightmare on it side or out of the arena.
Obwalden Overlord vs. Warhead - What is this, Assbots?
The Ringmaster vs. Ultimo Destructo - See Shrederator vs Deathroll
Splatter vs. Warrior<del> Clan </del>- Drone will do nothing, we'll see how lifter/spinner does vs spinner/flipper

Kanye West wants Obwalden Overlord to win Battlebots.
Just take that it for a moment (or many moments, I don't care), and yes this is true, its on the official BB page...

Brutus vs. Moebius Resurrected - Brutus is a great design and I could see them taking this one, but I gotta believe, man
Cobalt vs. Overhaul - Ok the inertia labs official reddit account said "Cobalt is utterly unimpressive compared to any number of American (or Brazilian...) spinners" so uh, yeah. wedge gap probably won't matter as much as I was thinking it would
Ghost Raptor vs. Son of Whyachi - lol
Lock-Jaw vs. Yeti - the new lockjaw is just way too cool for me to not pick it
Mega Tento vs. Poison Arrow - arrow's gonna shred the ladybug no matter what, and that means a lot in terms of points
Razorback vs. SawBlaze razorback has a lot of exposed wheel and spindly bits for SawBlaze to saw into, if he can get around to the side of Razorback
Red Devil vs. Wrecks - wrecks is entirely weapon and armor. nothing Red Devil has available to it will beat him (outside of stranding him on hazards), while I think that Wrecks is only gonna need a few hits to really damage Red Devil
Rotator vs. Witch Doctor - the good doctor is nippy, tough and has a good weapon himself. rotator has.... ehhh....
