Qualifiers

 * Rip vs Kitty vs Alpha vs Mini Maul vs G2 vs Prince of Awe vs Cygnus

Early on in the battle, Rip got underneath and flipped several of its opponents including Mini Maul, G2 and Prince of Awe. The battle was completely dominated by the flipping power of Rip, until it was picked up by Mr. Psycho and crumpled. Growler grabbed hold of Alpha and activated the pit release button, but Alpha escaped from its grasp. Meanwhile, Cygnus was lying upside-down in the CPZ and was hit by the hammer of Mr. Psycho. Prince of Awe got underneath and flipped G2, then an attack from Kitty left G2 immobilised. Meanwhile, Sir Killalot had completed trampled Mini Maul, which lay in pieces on the arena floor. Sir Killalot then picked up the immobilised Cygnus and G2 and placed them on the arena flipper, and they flew across the arena - G2 flew over the arena wall and Cygnus landed in the pit of oblivion. At the end of the battle, four robots were still mobile and the judges went for the two flipping robots, Prince of Awe and Rip.

Several of the robots started to attack Mammoth the walkerbot and Staglet grabbed hold of Alienator and pushed it around the arena. Meanwhile, Typhoon Cadet was staying out of the way in an attempt to get up to full spinning speed. Alienator was released and activated the pit release button as DTK got underneath and flipped Staglet and then Cutlet, which seemed unable to self-right and was pushed into the pit by Mammoth. Meanwhile, DTK had also managed to flip Typhoon Cadet and pushed Staglet into the pit, before flipping Mammoth over onto its side. Alienator had stopped moving and Refbot began to count it out, but then it suddenly sprang to life and drove away before the count was finished. Typhoon Cadet was stranded upside-down, counted out and sent flying by the arena flipper, as Bernard, DTK and Alienator continued to battle.
