259 vs Hypnodisc vs Supernova: Shame, I thought 259 would go further in this competition. But the fact of the matter is, this will be one of the easiest knockouts in the tournament. 259 is too fragile for these two rough robots, its drive belt, axle, engine, heck even the disc itself, are all liable to get torn up.

Corkscrew vs 13 Black vs IG-88: GRUDGE MATCH!!!! Well no actually, I think the two will end this one rather amicably. I do reject Matt's argument of Corkscrew being easy to tip, the only thing that toppled it was the floor flipper, and that can hardly be comparable to any robot's power (except maybe Gravity.) True, Corkscrew is tall, but the spring and cork-handle they weigh what? 9 kilo's? That's a very generous estimate, and can hardly be called a tipping hazard when 90% of the robot's weight is concentrated in a squat car wheel that is actually wider than it is tall. By no slim margin, IG-88 has the greatest quantity of unprotected surface area, what I see happening is the two other spinners slashing its sides to end its chances.
