Crusher Crunch Up
Mantis vs Pinser vs R.O.C.S.

All three robots started very cautiously, with Pinser and R.O.C.S. eventually engaging in battle, before Mantis came up behind R.O.C.S. and pushed it into the CPZ. As R.O.C.S. became cornered and was attacked by the hammer of Mr. Psycho, Mantis drove up onto Pinser and was gripped by Pinser's crushing weapon. R.O.C.S. escaped from the CPZ and rejoined the battle, as Pinser held Mantis over the flame pit, before eventually releasing it. Mantis then got underneath Pinser and slammed it into the arena wall, activating the pit in the process. Mantis very nearly drove into the pit and then slammed into the arena wall as Pinser grabbed hold of R.O.C.S. and sliced through its armour. All three robots then became locked together against the arena wall, as Cassius Chrome attempted to break them up. By the end of the battle, only Mantis appeared to be moving and was awarded the victory by the judges.

Winner: Mantis
