User blog:BizarroKing/Series 7 Redux: Heat B

Are you ready for Heat B? We have one series semi final spot filled, but 15 more to go. Who gets the next spot?

Bigger Brother (3) vs Diabolus vs Cobra vs Robochicken
House Robots: Dead Metal and Shunt

Bigger Brother is the first on the attack and immediately fires it's flipper on the invertible Cobra, while Robochicken pecks away at Diabolus, who tries to get it's spinning discs to work. Cobra slams into the side of Diabolus and pierces them with the spike, pushing them towards the angle grinder while Bigger Brother is rammed into the pit release by Robochicken, After backing away, Bigger Brother drives towards Diabolus, who looked to be barely working at this point; they try to get away from the seeds and ends up in Dead Metal's CPZ, where they are sliced up by the house robot's saw blade and eventually counted out by Refbot. Cobra rams itself into Robochicken but drives too close to the pit and falls right in, thus they too are eliminated. Robochicken tries to get away from Bigger Brother in hopes of saving it's energy for round 2, but before CEASE is called, the 3rd seeds flip the chicken over anyway.

Qualified: Bigger Brother and Robochicken

Gyrobot vs Thorak vs Brutus Maximus vs Black and Blue
House Robots: Matilda and Shunt

Gyrobot spins away and drives towards the Black and Blue twins who break away and separately slam into the other robots, Black into Brutus, Blue into Thorak. Brutus attacks with it's spinning blades but they do not seem to do a whole lot of damage to any of it's opponents as Gyrobot slams into it's side while Thorak attempts to flip it over to no avail. Gyrobot slams into Thorak and another attack on Brutus while Blue slams into Gyrobot to temporarily stop them from spinning. Black slams into Brutus Maximus who counters with a few hits from it's spinning blades; however one blade seems to stop working and an attack from the spinning drum of one of the clusterbots causes it to fall off. Thorak moves around and flips Brutus Maximus onto it's side leaving it stuck as Gyrobot spins into Thorak again and dents the armor up. Black and Blue double team Thorak as Refbot counts out Brutus Maximus. Shunt pushes Brutus onto the floor flipper and sends them airborune to close out the fight. As for the remaining three robots, the judges rule that although Thorak was able to overturn Brutus, they did not score enough aggression points to move on and are voted out.

Qualified: Gyrobot and Black and Blue

Bigger Brother (3) vs Black and Blue
House Robots: Mr. Psycho and Growler

The clusterbot break apart and come at Bigger Brother from opposite sides, hoping to use that as a strategy. Their spinning drums however do not seem to be doing any damage to the supposedly 'indestructible' armor of the seeds as they flip Blue over almost instantly. Black pushes BB towards Growler only to get flipped itself and pushed into the angle grinder. Bigger Brother sets them up for one more mighty flip, which sends Black out of the arena, and since one half of Black and Blue is OoTA, the whole robot loses.

Winner: Bigger Brother

Gyrobot vs Robochicken
House Robots: Mr. Psycho and Growler

Gyrobot immediately begins to spin up to speed and looks for a place to attack Robochicken who slammed into the pit release just after ACTIVATE! Robochicken uses it's flipper to flip Gyrobot over once, then twice. Gyrobot counters by attacking the side of Robochicken, doing a bit of damage while trying to push the chicken near the CPZ of either Growler or Psycho, to little avail. Robochicken tries to attack with the disc but fails to do any damage, so they decide to try and flip Gyrobot again, as both robots drive dangerously close to the pit. After getting flipped by Robochicken again, Gyrobot ends up rolling on it's side all the way into the pit!

Winner: Robochicken.

Bigger Brother (3) vs Robochicken
House Robots: Sgt. Bash and Sir Killalot

Robochicken drives away from Bigger Brother in hopes of avoiding the powerful flipping weapon of the 3rd seeds, but they are rammed into in a matter of seconds and with one flip, are sent out of the arena in a record 9 seconds!

Heat Winner: Bigger Brother
