Cut - Wild Willy. At this stage, all the other robots have something really going for them, if not for weapons then at the very least for design and to a degree or two innovation. Wild Willy was basically a purple box with a turret and an axe which whilst it could pop tyres, evidently couldn't do anything to actual armour (and when we have robots like Mortis and Killerhurtz breaking through armour, that's sort of a problem). It's competent, but it just doesn't strike me as anything other than midway decent. Also there's the way it lost...regardless of what actually caused it to end up in the pit, it either drove in when it could have simply reversed away from the spike, or it ended up having a terminal drive malfunction because of the spike. Either way, it threw a battle it was winning.

Pooled - Killerhurtz. Series 3 was not its best year. Also I think it's one of the few, if only, first round fallers that hasn't been nominated yet.
