Rebellion
As the battle started, Humdrum moved to the centre of the arena to get its spinning maces up to speed. Squirmin Vermin was sandwiched between Dead Metal and Shunt, but neither were able to damage it as it slipped between the two. Shunt then moved towards Humdrum whilst it was spinning, which caused both robots to be deflected away. However, Humdrum seemed to slow down at this attack, which allowed Shunt to push it.

"Shunt definately with a weight advantage here"

Squirmin Vermin drove into the side of Shunt and tried to flip it over, but only succeeded in throwing its nose off. Dead Metal caught Squirmin Vermin in his claws and used his saw to cut through the mouse-shaped robot's wheel. All four robots drove into the lower right CPZ, with Shunt using his axe to pull Humdrum, before hitting the pit release bumper. Humdrum did not appear to have any mobility, so Shunt pushed it back towards the centre of the arena, whilst Dead Metal cut into Squirmin Vermin's side.

"Well, the house 'bots are just too awesome for these guys"

- Stefan Frank

As Dead Metal continued cutting into Squirmin Vermin, Shunt axed its top and managed to lift it up into the air using his axe and scoop, but Squirmin Vermin eventually fell off. Squirmin Vermin tried desperately to defend itself, only to be axed by Shunt again.

"So what do these challengers have to learn about this round? Don't mess with the house 'bots"

- Stefan Frank on the destruction of Squirmin Vermin

Shunt pushed Squirmin Vermin towards the pit, but Squirmin Vermin was just able to resist going down. Humdrum was also next to the pit, still immobile, so Dead Metal sliced through its armour with ease, before pushing it away, whilst Shunt chased after Squirmin Vermin. But the competitors troubles were far from over, as at that exact moment, Sir Killalot entered the arena.

"As if these guys needed any more help!"

- The obvious stated, whilst Squirmin Vermin and Humdrum are torn into

As Dead Metal easily cut into Humdrum again, Shunt lifted up Squirmin Vermin using his axe and scoop again, before dropping it to allow Sir Killalot to pick it up. Squirmin Vermin was easily picked up and paraded around the arena, firing its flipper in a futile attempt to get away. Eventually, Sir Killalot dumped Squirmin Vermin out of the arena, then turned his attention to Humdrum, who was receiving the sole attention of the other two house robots. Humdrum's spinning body was easily crumpled by Killalot's claw, as he dragged it towards the arena centre, onto the drop zone target. After some positioning by Shunt, Humdrum was pelted by a collection of scrap metal.

"...which is exactly what Humdrum has been reduced to"

Cease was finally called, ending the challenge with no doubt over the winners.

"Well, they had a good beginning, but they sure had a sorry end. Nobody beats the house 'bots!"
