 * 10 - Conquering Clown 2. As I said when I voted off Ming 3, some of Conquering Clown's wins felt very fluky. It certainly performed well, I'll give it that, but I can in good faith rank it above everyone else in the field.
 * 9 - Razer. Whilst it would easily best every single robot left in the rankdown bar one (and that's a maybe all things considering), I have to look at this based on how capable they were AND how they performed. At the end of the day, Razer only beat Kat 3 and that fight with Tornado was an absolute mess where both robots got screwed over. Simply put, I don't feel this was Razer at its best.
 * 8 - Cyclone 2. A great performance in the annihilator hindered by the fact that it never seemed to come under any sort of threat, namely because everyone else just couldn't keep taking the continual hints that, hey, y'know, maybe you should try to team up against him and attack him at once, rather than just YOLO'ing one at a time, thus allowing Cyclone to dismantle each of its opponents in turn with, what, just one internal fire to trouble it? Also an absolutely abysmal US Championship performance.
 * 7 - Rosie the Riveter. A strong performance in the US championship hindered by the fact that it had one of the weaker line-ups to contend with. Also, no wins in Nickelodeon despite putting up a really strong performance in both of its fights. Certainly a major, MAJOR improvement over its Season 1 performance, that's for certain.
 * 6 - Tornado. A typical dominating Tornado performance in the International Championship, I simply cannot deny that. But, like I said with Pussycat for last season's rankdown, it just doesn't feel right ranking it any higher than this, for me personally.
 * 5 - Destructive Criticism. It looked simple, but its weapon was surprisingly destructive given how narrow it was and it was a fighter as its fight against Ninjitsu proved. Also, it has by far the best name of any of the remaining robots. Its loss still hinders it.
 * 4 - Propeller-Head. A simple design, but extremely effective and destructive. Its fight against Revolutionist is without question one of the greatest of all three American series. Outclasses DC and Rosie on the basis it won a side event, loses ground though because of how it lost in the USC.
 * 3 - Rocky Bot Boa. An absolute trooper. Had two great battles against Manta and Tricerabot, and a solid performance in its other fights, including the Tag Team Terror.
 * 2 - Tricerabot 3.0. However, at the end of the day, the performance of the top two cannot be denied. Tricerabot was a fast, brutal rambot that very few robots could stand up to. Maybe not quite as flamboyant as its EW1 counterpart, but still very effective, with some of the best fights of the series to its name.
 * 1 - PANZER MK 4. There was never going to be any question. This machine was the best American robot Robot Wars could get ahold of. Nothing phased it. Nobody could stop it. It went in as the reigning champion and STAYED the reigning champion. What more needs to be said?
