LoRE Season 1: Preseason Predictions

Post by prince palatine » Mon Jun 24, 2013 2:11 pm

Here's my fresh batch of MW predictions!

MW's

Touro Division

#1 Luna. Simply cause Kody is a fucking bastard. Just kidding man! :P

#2 Give Way. It's.... Just freaking awesome man, should kick ass around here.

#3 Harbinger. ASSUME DIRECT CONTROL MOTHERFUCKER!!!!

#4 The Swarm. One annoying clusterbot to fight, should pick up some good wins here and there.

#5 Terminus. Next stop, PAIN! Surprisingly, he has the best wedge in the division, but I doubt that will save him.

#6 Goldon Destiny 2. Looks like a really good bot, but it's exposed weapon motor will really fuck him up.

#7 Decapitator. A really good bot, don't get me wrong. But with 1 wedge here and really shit body armour at best, he might be in trouble.

Doom On You Division

#1 Influenza. .....Shit, were fucked!

#2 Automaton. Should do very well in it's division, should deal with most and get to the play-offs.

#3 WhipCoil 4.5. He's missed out on the play-offs by a fraction every single time, but I feel this time it's his year!

#4 Good For it. Looks like a fearsome bot with good stats and a huge disc.

#5 Caliente. Good armour wedge, not much control though.

#6 Handle With Care. Your average run of the mill drum bot, shouldn't do too bad I think.

#7 Sword of Justice. Putting no wedge on that thing is just asking to die!

Heavyweights to be done later.

Many more Harbinger lines will be appearing during the duration of the tournament. :v:

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

Well relative to the size of the rest of the bot it is.

<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>prince palatine</dt><dd>Jun 24 2013&#44; 01:43 PM</dd></dl><div> Here's my predictions for this season

#1 Conqueror. He's got the power, armour and control to take this division by storm, he may have a little bit of trouble against TSA 3 in a wedge battle, but should coast to the play-offs [/quote]
Oho, so a prediction for First Place for Conqueror? That's great to see&#33; Along with Kody's prediction for Mamba earlier (Thanks for that, by that way), that's very encouraging to see, so hopefully I can pull that off.

And for a second, I read Turgor's name as Turbot. Now it's got me feeling like a nice piece of fish for my dinner. :P

And no respect for me giving both Conqueror AND Black Mamba #1's? :P

My plan is for people to get underneath Pepperdine, and then whack the hell out of them.

In reality though its a design meant for a league without the wedge effectiveness rule but I guess I never changed it. I think my thinking at the time was that I could've given it wedge points, but it wouldn't have really been enough to make a difference so they were better invested in other places. I think I should've given it more speed and made it more compact.

I know that feel. I'm in quite a similar pickle with Decapitator's stats, but I do at least have some good speed and control on my side. I'll need to make very good use of it if it's going to stand a chance, though.
