User blog comment:RA2/Robot Wars Rankdown: Series 3/@comment-2118191-20180410052047

Sliding into the pit trying to pit its disabled opponent: Raizer Blade. At this stage, I'm looking for potential potency in terms of weapons. I don't feel Raizer Blade makes that cut. I don't recall its lifting arm being even remotely effective during Series 3 (at least Eric and Invertabrat lifted another robot) and it was really too quick for its own good. It had a limping Suicidal Tendencies right on the edge of the pit, couldn't push it in and then fell in itself. And then it still lost the judges decision because of that. That last part isn't its fault, but if T2 gets eliminated in part because of it pitting itself during an easy win, in theory so should Raizer Blade.

Reluctantly added to the pool: Cassius 2. Even putting aside the fact it fell so early, it just didn't come across as anywhere near as good as its Series 2 counterpart. It was either that or Pussycat (which was nowhere near as good as it would later be), but eh, Cassius lost that battle, so...

Pool: All Torque, Anorakaphobia, Cassius 2, Centurion, Eric, Evil Weevil, Invertabrat, Onslaught, Trident, Ultor
