"This is it! This is the moment we've all been waiting for. After four heats and twenty robots with a one-way trip to the scrapheap, just four robots remain! They've shown they're the toughest of the tough, but only one can be crowned Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors grand champion! I hope you're ready, because these bad boys certainly are. Lets see who's up first..."
This is the fourth fight from The Revolutionist in this competition, and its actual fourth fight in Season 1 was against Sobek, where it did not spin. I will therefore operate under a no-spin law for The Revolutionist, and Manta should cleanly sweep it up. Even if they start to lose battery power, they were never once counted out for it, so they should scrape to the end and win on points. TOAST 13:46, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
As Toast stated, The Revolutionists did not spin in their "fourth" battle. Therefore I say a decent rambot like Manta should be able to win just like Sobek did, except here Manta is ten times more tough.Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 13:52, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
Manta seems strong enough to withstand The Revolutionist long enough for something to go wrong with it, and then take full advantage. Hogwild94 (talk) 18:10, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
To be honest, both robots will be limping by the time this battle ends. However, I suspect that although Manta does have battery problems, it should cause more aggression than its opponent, outscoring the damage points The Revolutionist's spinner will achieve.

Votes for The Revolutionist
This is a very tough battle, albeit one I certainly would have liked to have seen. My main concern is if Manta can tank the first few minutes of Revolutionist whilst it's spinning. Actually, no, my TRUE main concern is how many points Manta can score before it runs out of steam, which is always seemed to do. Even a Revolutionist with a broken spinner still remained aggressive, which I think will help in the end. CrashBash (talk) 13:38, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
Winner: Manta (4-1)
"The Revolution boys know, the end could be near..."
Less of an issue here, it's over in one flip, Panzer can probably pull that flip. CrashBash (talk) 13:38, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
Funny how Tut Tut is the only remaining robot in the competition that hasn't proven it would lose to Panzer Mk 2, but I still imagine it would. TOAST 13:46, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
I don't think it's that much of a surprise who wins, so the third place will be the more interesting battle.Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 13:50, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
A very good one it may be, but Tut Tut is still a loanerbot, and Panzer is the sort of robot that just doesn't lose to loanerbots. One flip KO, maybe. Hogwild94 (talk) 18:12, October 19, 2018 (UTC)
Tut Tut will put up a decent fight, and if it can take out one or more of the tyres of its opponent, it should have a great chance of winning. Ultimately, Panzer Mk 2's relentless power will probably prove too much for the loanerbot, eventually result in it being overturned. SpaceManiac888(Talk) 18:20, October 20, 2018 (UTC)

Bonus Battles[]
"We now have our two finalists, and they'll need all the time they can muster to be ready for what should be an epic showdown! So to give them time to prepare, we have a series of bonus battles to keep you all entertained. First up, an exhibition battle held before the championship began between two robots who boasted that they were the strongest bots in the biz. Next, the playoff for third and fourth place between The Revolutionist and Tut Tut. Finally, the winners of our four rumbles will enter the arena one more time to decide once and for all who will be the most Extreme, in our Ultimate Rumble. I hope you're ready, this is going to get chaotic!"
Honestly Manta was a match for Drillzilla in the pushing match, and that was only an 80kg robot. Even Conquering Clown outpushed Drillzilla at one point. Both robots will have opportunities, but Panzer’s more consistently grounded tyres should carry it through. TOAST 20:25, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Got to agree with Toast here, to the point where I think Drillzilla will do very little against its opponent. OK, maybe a good push or two, but Panzer Mk 2's attacks (especially its lifts, which will still score points), should outweigh these pushes, winning on a judges' decision. SpaceManiac888(Talk) 13:38, October 22, 2018 (UTC)
Panzer only has to lift Drillzilla once and it has won points wise. Panzer to outpush, lift and pit Drillzilla. Sam(BAZINGA) 16:44, October 22, 2018 (UTC)
Votes for Drillzilla
I know the general consensus was to not allow Drillzilla in, but I know there were at least a few who did want it in, and also wanted to know what would really have happened if it and Panzer had gone head-to-head. So I thought "why not?" Anyway, whilst I could see Panzer getting some lifts in, I think Drillzilla's speed will likely keep it out of harms way, thus in can do what it wants. CrashBash (talk) 13:30, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Panzer isn't flipping Drillzilla, I doubt many flippers could. Hogwild94 (talk) 17:55, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Drillzilla just needs to get around the side of Panzer and it'll push it all around. Drillzilla is too big and too heavy to be flipped by Panzer. Jimlaad43(talk) 21:13, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
So, by Toast's logic, The Revolutionist's spinning ability should match what happened in the Second World Championship, where it wasn't spinning at first, then got its spinner up to speed later. Now obviously I'd argue that the only reason it then stopped after that was because Razer wrecked it, and Tut Tut is clearly no Razer. I wouldn't be surprised if a wheel is taken out. CrashBash (talk) 13:30, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
No matter how well The Revolutionist works, I think it has enough in it over Tut Tut to win this. Hogwild94 (talk) 17:56, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Votes for Tut Tut
Crash is correct, I will be treating this like The Revolutionist's fifth fight in Season 1, which was its battle with Diotoir and Flensburger Power. In this fight, The Revolutionist did not spin, and so a static Revolutionist will be an easy target for Tut Tut. TOAST 19:13, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
With good control and an awkward design, I say this should be a win for Tut Tut, especially as The Revolutionists spinner won't be working properly and as with before, if Sobek can defeat it, so can anyone else really. That combined with the axe should do the trick.Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 19:44, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Even if The Revolutionist spun, I think Tut Tut's front is perfect in deflecting the spinner away from it. Then, Tut Tut can charge in and go to work on the top, scoring decently in aggression and causing some minor damage. Providing that it avoids letting The Revolutionist get away, Tut Tut should dominate this battle, winning on a judges' decision. SpaceManiac888(Talk) 13:38, October 22, 2018 (UTC)
Replace Unibite with Falcon and you have our four heat-finalists. Anyway, Tricerabot rams Conquering Clown and Chompsalot around until the former dies and the latter is pitted, by which point someone will have probably rammed Unibite hard enough to knock it out. CrashBash (talk) 13:30, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
Can't see any of the others posing enough of a threat to Tricerabot's pushing power to topple it there. Hogwild94 (talk) 17:57, October 21, 2018 (UTC)
I think General Chompsalot will survive, but compared to Tricerabot, it will be ineffective. Tricerabot is likely to knockout Conquering Clown and Unibite at some point, before outpushing General Chompsalot to win a judges' decision. SpaceManiac888(Talk) 13:38, October 22, 2018 (UTC)
Winner: Tricerabot (0-0-0-4)
Final[]
"And so here we are, after twenty-two fights and wrecked 'bots later, it all comes down to this. Manta and Panzer Mk 2 have made it this far, but only one will be crowned our first Extreme Warriors US Champion. I hope you're ready, because the 'bots certainly are. FIGHT ON!"
I think their actual fight gave a great clue as to what would happen. Manta may have the ground clearance advantage, but the fact remains, its poor power conservation will always leave it vulnerable and has been the main...in fact, the ONLY...reason it has lost fights. As long as Panzer focuses and doesn't do anything too silly, it can keep up the pressure. Now, I'm sure there will be people who think Manta could take it, and I welcome those votes, but in the end, I think the winner will still be Panzer, as it was IRL. And I don't regret trying this tournament out. But I do still have one last surprise...CrashBash (talk) 12:30, October 23, 2018 (UTC)
I would love for Manta to win this without this battle becoming a whitewash forgone conclusion but I cannot deny what we saw. Manta may be low enough and may have the damage output but alas the power will be its undoing and the power that Panzer Mk shows is far more superior as well the fact that I don't think Manta can self right? Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 14:26, October 23, 2018 (UTC)
I'm looking at the bright side here, Panzer Mk 2 arguably did not deserve its title in the real US Season 1 after the edit displayed a dominant Drillzilla performance in the melee, but here we have a fully earned Panzer Mk 2 victory - good stuff. TOAST 14:29, October 23, 2018 (UTC)
Arguably made better by the fact we just (barely) decided that in a head-to-head, Panzer would beat Drillzilla. CrashBash (talk) 19:34, October 24, 2018 (UTC)
Got to agree with the majority here. Panzer Mk 2 will join two prestigious wiki tournament clubs if the results stay as they are, which I will explain after this battle ends. SpaceManiac888(Talk) 20:28, October 24, 2018 (UTC)
There are definitely ways Manta could win this- Panzer nearly flipped itself in ramping off Manta and only stopped itself by bouncing off Refbot, and Manta's disc could potentially nip a tyre if Panzer misjudges- but ultimately there's no real reason to go against what happened. Combatwombat555 (talk) 20:42, October 24, 2018 (UTC)
Panzer wins, just as it actually did. Hogwild94 (talk) 20:55, October 24, 2018 (UTC)
