Robot Wars: The Seventh Wars/Semi-Final 2

The Seventh Wars - Semi-Final 2 was one of two semi-finals to determine the Grand Finalists of Series 3, out of eight semi-finalists. The eight robots were paired off in Round 1, with the four victors pairing off in Round 2.

Round 1

 * Mute vs Firestorm 5

Firestorm 5 got underneath Mute and flipped it over onto its back. Mute attempted to self-right but instead it somersaulted around the arena, every time landing upside-down and unable to get back onto its wheels. Eventually it stopped next to the arena wall and was flipped out of the arena by Firestorm 5.

Winner: Firestorm 5


 * Thermidor 2 vs Typhoon 2

Typhoon 2 employed its usual tactic of avoiding its opponent to get its spinning weapon up to full speed. When it eventually went on the attack it took just one hit as the impact immobilised Thermidor 2 on first contact.

Winner: Typhoon 2


 * Storm 2 vs The Grim Reaper

Storm 2 started quickly and slammed The Grim Reaper into the arena wall on numerous occasions. Storm 2 was relentless and continued to slam The Grim Reaper into every arena wall and into the house robots. Storm 2 then lifted The Grim Reaper up onto its back and held it there so that it was unable to self-right, but Shunt knocked it back onto its wheels. The battle ended with both robots still mobile and the judges went for Storm 2.

Winner: Storm 2


 * Atomic vs M2

Atomic quickly got underneath and flipped M2 over, but it was able to self-right. Atomic continued to flip M2, but its shape meant that M2 kept rolling back onto its wheels. Then M2 finally got underneath Atomic and flipped it against the arena wall and almost out of the arena, but Atomic escaped. Atomic continued to flip M2 around the arena and eventually flipped it against the side wall and out of the arena.

Winner: Atomic

Round 2

 * Firestorm 5 vs Storm 2

The battle started slowly with neither robot able to launch a solid attack, but Storm 2 was soon able to push Firestorm 5 into the arena wall. Storm 2 pushed Firestorm 5 towards the CPZ and then into the pit release button, and Firestorm 5 nearly drove into the opening pit. Storm 2 continued to push Firestorm 5 around the arena and into an arena angle grinder, before finally pushing its opponent into the pit of oblivion.

Winner: Storm 2


 * Typhoon 2 vs Atomic

Before Typhoon 2 was able to get its weapon up to speed, Atomic saw the danger and attempted to flip it but Typhoon 2 did not turn over. Atomic tried once more to flip Typhoon 2 but it hit the arena angle grinder instead and flipped itself onto its back, unable to self-right. Typhoon 2 charged up its weapon and attacked Atomic three times causing major damage before Atomic was eventually counted out.

Winner: Typhoon 2
