Leighviathan

Leighviathan was an unusual box wedge shaped robot, that resembled a JCB digger. It had a Laser Guided Directional Finder modified from laser pens. Although never clearing the heats, this team progressed well through the heats in both Series 1 (with Leighbot) and Series 2 making the arena stages both times and only being beaten by strong robots like Mortis and Mace.

Series 2
First off, Leighviathan had trouble in the pits as another team had the same frequency on their controls, so it had to be changed. This set-back was short lived as the robot made it to the start of the gauntlet, where it took the middle route and started by using the chainsaw to move the barrels out of the way, but then Sir Killalot came in from behind lifting Leighviathan into the air and tipping it over. However. it travelled 5.1m which was enough to put the robot through into the Trials. Next was the Tug of War trial were it gained enough ground over Dead Metal for the judges to halt the time, putting the team through to the arena. In the arena Leighviathan were drawn against Mace, the fight started badly as Mace got underneath Leighviathan and attempted to flip it, eventually pushing Leighviathan into the PPZ and into Dead Metal and Shunt. Then Matilda came in with her chainsaw cutting through Leighviathan's shell, whilst this was happening Dead Metal used it's pincers to push Leighviathan around and bent it's chainsaw. Then Leighviathan top armour had started to be plucked off. However the robot managed to escape, but Mace pursued and set to work on Leighviathan's body shell with the flail, but then cease was called and the following Judge's Decision awarded Mace the win.
