Wow, your assessment of Cobra is brutal. I'd back it over Draven anyday from what I've seen, who shouldn't have come back after last series, and Crushtacean as well, which was an outdated concept that didn't really need to return. The fact of the matter is that there have simply been too many poor machines (not necessarily jokebots) in Series 9 compared to Series 8 in my opinion, and the variety hasn't been as good either. On the other hand, I agree with what you say about episode 4's melees and episode 2 definitely had the best lineup.
