This tournament needed one, and I guess I should be doing useful things, so here we are.


As an opener, might I suggest that we keep the same arena but just scale it down so that it's actually a HBW-sized arena?
Mastodon... Extinction (HW)
Osiris... Armageddon! (MW)
Elrathia... ROBOTS (LW)
Magnolia Pico... Ruination 4 (MW)
RipTide... ROBOT2 (FW)
Black Diamond... Cherry Bomb Classic 3 (HW)
MADSCIENCE... ROBOTS 3 (LW)
Abyss... ROBOTS 3 (MW)


The Monsterworks: 214-57 (.790) ...Probably up to no good.
Cherry Bomb Classic IV: 25-4
Finishing Move: 6-2
Magnolia Pico: 6-1
Magnolia Grande: 6-1
Glacier III: 7-0
ROBOTS 3: 21-6
Sixpounder: 3-4
MADSCIENCE: 9-1 Champion!
Abyss: 9-1 Champion!

And maybe lower the OOTA requirement a bit? Not even dedicated super-flippers like TVC have 11 power in their weapons.

I swapped my entry out for a different robot.

Also, Sylandro: walkers don't get a point bonus in this tournament.
