Gi-Ant-O

Gi-Ant-O was the featherweight of Team Terrafonics. It competed in the featherweight competitions of Extreme 2 and Series 7. Its name was a misnomer, as it was always very small for its weight class. In Extreme 2, the real Gi-Ant-O broke down at the lst minute and had to be replaced with a 3kg sumobot that had no weapons. In Series 7, it very much resembled the legendary American middleweight Hazard, with a small wedge at the front and a spinning blade on the top. Neither version progressed past the first round.

Extreme 2
"We avoided Sir K for 4 mins before he finally got me"

- Craig Danby on what happened to Gi-Ant-O after it was counted out.



Series 7
"Gi-Ant-O wasn't dead at the end, we took out Rampage's drive on the one side and knocked the link out of Whipper. We were cheated."

- Craig Danby on the fight

In the final heat of the competition, Gi-Ant-O faced Rampage 2, Whipper and Micro-Mute. At the beginning, while Rampage 2 and Whipper clashed together and Micro-Mute fell foul of Sir Killalot, Gi-Ant-O was largely anonymous. Then, the sparring Rampage and Whipper drove near Gi-Ant-O, and it knocked out the saftey link of Whipper and disabled the drive on one side of Rampage 2. However, Gi-Ant-O then appeared to stop and perhaps unfairly, was counted out by Refbot despite it showing small signs of life and neither Rampage nor Whipper showing any. As Micro-Mute had already been counted out and pitted, cease was called.
