That's why I have No Patrol in MW :dawg:

It reminds me of some of Ry_Trapp's stuff. Maybe it's the wedge shape and the wheels, but it's kind like a sturdier out-of-proportion Exotherm in a sense. I reckon it could do alright.

Yeah that's what I thought. Apophis looks pretty sweet too.

Lol I just spent like an hour browsing through my old threads and looking at all the shit I caused, and all the terrible MS paint bots I made three years ago or so. I have never felt so physically disgusted with myself in my entire life :P

also at one point I had apparently made like one or two spinner bot designs with accidental swastikas in them lmao. twelve year old me god damn.


EDIT: You know, to be fair it's a bit of a shame we have to associate something as simplistic as the shape of a Swastika with the Nazi's...Especially since it is, what, a Hindu peace cross or some shit like that? and obviously it isn't hard to accidentally incorporate a similar shape into the design of something else, which I ended up doing on the blade details of an early VS of mine.

tbh, I think that's it for the multi-bot. Anger Denial Acceptance was great while he lasted but... it's time to face the fact that it's going to die every match without a single laugh.

Which brings the question of "what MW do I enter now?" up. Jinx? Luna? Xianghua?

Or do I think of something new, but will probably be crap?

I remember you saying you wanted to give Ultraviolence another go. Why not scale down Haze of Dread or something?

Well. That was short-lived. Like it or not, Luna's back. :cool: Sorry Lian, Luna was basically Ultraviolence 2.0 anyway.

And no, birthday boy, it's not Woona. :P

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

As tempted as I am to start making Princess Luna references, I'll refrain from it. :P

*Whew* Tragedy averted. Everytime someone mentions that stuff my risk of Diabetes goes up. :v:

And speaking of my shortened life expectancy, I made some updates to my team. Even I hate myself.

God forbid I ever get to fight ToC again, but lord knows that Zombie Killer hasn't competed in nearly enough seasons.

That said, I think this is my favorite of his designs.

To be fair, Crazy Bots is ToC's 6th (major) tournament which ties the number Zombie Killer has competed in. ZK's were all consecutive so it feels like a lot more.

And I figured ToC/Tank was the only relevent match-up anyway. :P

Besides, we all know Tank is uber-tier these days and ToC has been doing his best to prove how obsolete he is since FRR 4, so what's the point? :v:
