Elliminators
Behemoth slammed head-on into Infernal Contraption bouncing it away and then overturning C.V. where it couldn't right itself, but Behemoth fortunatly righted it. Team MakeRobotics robot then shoved the machine from Open University backwards into the CPZ where they both managed to escape before Behemoth broke down. C.V. swished its axe down on Behemoth as Refbot counted out the team from The University of Hertfordshire. Sir Killalot then skewered Behemoth on the end of its lance and carried it to the arena flipper where it was thrown and it was then roasted over the flame pit, this was a huge upset for the University of Hertfordshire and the crowd.

Quallifiers: Infernal Contraption & C.V.

Tiberius 3 tried to get a grip on Fluffy which managed to rip something off of Infinity. Tiberius 3 then speared the tip of its beak on Fluffy's top panels, Infinity then rammed Loughborough Universitys machine from behind whilst it was getting Fluffy over the flame pit. After getting away from the flame pit, Infinity rammed at Fluffy who couldn't get off. Growler hit the pit release button where both Infinity & Fluffy were on the edge of the pit, Fluffy and Tiberius 3 both got pitted by Growler but Fluffy went in first and was elliminated.

Round 2
Infinity tried to get a claw-hold of Infernal Contraption but the design and shape of the machine from Imperial College, London allowed it to slip away everytime. Infinity then got under Infernal Contraption and shoved it into the angle-grinder before then shoving it into Sgt Bash but it managed to escape and buckle one of Infinitys claws upwards. Both robots found themselves in the same CPZ where Sir Killalot picked up Infinity and just about dropped it out the arena before picking it up again, taking it out of the CPZ, spinning it around and letting it go which allowed it to continue the fight. After both robots ran more rings around each other, Infernal Contraption was shoved into Sir Killalot where it managed to escape. Infinity then shoved Infernal Contraption into the angle-grinder in the last 10 seconds and dragged it around a bit before cease was called which meant it went to the judges. The judges then gave the decision to Infinity.

Winner: Infinity

C.V. swished its axe at Tiberius 3 but none of the blows were effective and it also missed its target a few times. Both robots then got a hold of each other for a second but let each other go continuing the fight. Tiberius 3 pushed C.V. into the pit-release button activating the pit where it grabbed hold of the machine from Open University and shoved it down the pit allowing it to go through to the University Challenge final.

Winner: Tiberius 3

Final
Tiberius 3 kept trying to get its jaw on Infinity but the welsh machine was too quick and maneuverable for it. Tiberius 3 eventually managed to pin Infinity with its beak and the machine from the University of Wales shoved Tiberius 3 backwards into an angle-grinder where it managed to escape Tiberius 3's grip. Tiberius 3 managed to pin Infinity again but again it escaped and Tiberius 3 kept chasing it. The machine from Loughborough University then jammed the tip of its beak behind Infinitys wheel but it escaped again and both robots had a bit of a shoving match. Tiberius 3 shoved Infinity into Shunts CPZ where the welsh robot took a blow from the house robots axe and Tiberius 3 also took 2 axe-blows from Shunt too. Both robots were still mobile at the end which meant it went to the judges and the judges decided Tiberius 3 was the winner.
