Forums: Index > International Series 6 > International Series 6 Heat J

Bamm Bamm's Dutch Series 2 campaign almost ended after just one fight, shockingly losing on a Judges' decision to Flepser. However, it received a wildcard to the Grand Final and took full advantage of it, defeating its great rival Lizzard, before losing a close fight to Philipper 2 in the final four. Now a two-time Dutch Grand Finalist, Bamm Bamm wants to have an equally successful UK run. But with no wildcards, and young and hungry opposition like Shredder (who troubled MouseTrap), and Buzz, achieving such a run will carry more merit for sure! So, LET THE WARS BEGIN!

Round 1

Bamm Bamm (19) vs Trilobyte vs Infernal Contraption vs 4x4

Bamm Bamm		Votes Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. Certainly the Heat of Life, right? So, the seed should be fine here, considering it is facing two machines that hardly had firepower and died quite easily, and a loose cannon. 4x4 is better than Monad, but it still looked a little unstable and was slain by Barber-Ous 2 in one or two fairly light hits to be honest. Probably a good hit from Bamm Bamm or a blow from Infernal Contraption will cause havoc to the Team Monad representative. Trilobyte is such a slow colossus that even the loose cannon Infernal Contraption should consistently hit it, causing it to break down. Bamm Bamm proved relatively secure, and Infernal Contraption still somehow moved somewhat despite suffering badly against 259. They will be the survivors then, in that case. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 08:31, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption - Not much to say really, Bamm Bamm is the strongest here and Infernal Contraption is the most damaging and can survive easily where as 4X4 and Trilobyte just seem less impactful in the fight and less likely to win. Now cue the atypical Jimlaad vote against Infernal Contraption being "bad"....;) Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 08:42, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. My God this heat is dire. I'm expecting the Jimlaad-worst-nightmare heat final of Shredder vs Infernal Contraption and not having any grievances with that jeez. Well, Trilobyte to do diddly squat and 4x4 to be pushed about and shredded by IC in the one attack it actually manages to keep the flywheel pointing forwards to kill it off Jimlaad43(talk) 08:45, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. Perfection, gentlemen, we have found it. This heat is magnificent. TOAST 10:38, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. The surely objectively stronger pair of robots in this melee should have no trouble showing aggression against two sitting ducks. In an ideal world, 4x4 and Trilobyte would make contact and both die on impact to spare us our valuable time. SFCJack (talk) 12:02, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. Blummin' 'eck, what a heat, pretty much anyone could go through, and that is brilliant. Anyway, Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption are just going to give no room to Trilobyte or 4x4, and Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption will go through either by the Judges, or a knockout. Adster1005 12:07, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. I kept musing over any possible alternatives and yet found nothing. The moment Trilobyte may have been competent, it'd probably just drive into the pit again after opening it right at the start of the battle and seemingly forgetting it had done so. I'm sorry, but I love that pitting for some reason. CrashBash (talk) 15:58, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Infernal Contraption and Bamm Bamm - yep, agreed with the other votes. These two will do their business in a modest way. NJGW (talk) 17:43, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption. Yeah, going with the crowd again. Trilobyte just not reliable, and 4x4 only marginally better than its dad. Hogwild94 (talk) 17:58, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Bamm Bamm and Infernal Contraption - Bamm Bamm should be pretty dominant regardless of which weapon it uses, and Infernal Contraption's iffy control won't matter against such mild opposition and it'll tear up some armour.

Axe-C-Dent 2 vs Shredder vs Night Stalker vs Buzz

Axe-C-Dent 2		Votes Shredder and Buzz. Buzz can probably topple Axe-C-Dent 2 within a few seconds. Regarding the remaining three, Night Stalker did have some potential, but could not really showcase it when facing effective rammers. Unfortunately for it, Shredder survived some decent punishment from S3, so it can easily soak up the hits the full-body spinner delivers. Buzz can then wedge underneath and either topple or push Night Stalker around, these attacks compromising Night Stalker's weapon. It will then only be a matter of time before Night Stalker grounds to a halt from attacks by both Shredder and Buzz. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 08:31, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz - I can't wait to see how Toast and Nick somehow come up with a way Axe-C-Dent can win this despite being a poor robot, anyways, this fight is pretty easy to decide, Shredder the strongest by far, Axe-C-Dent is gonna fall apart or die from a ht and Night Stalker is...something that existed, it's probably weaker than Axe-C-Dent! Buzz, as it appeared in BattleBots as well, seemed like a really good robot and honestly, given the competition, I say it might be the dark horse...Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 08:46, August 2, 2020 (UTC) I thought NJGW didn't like Axe-C-Dent because of its name. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 08:50, August 2, 2020 (UTC) I thought both of them voted for it in almost every fight in Ragnabots, I'll have recheck :PDiotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 08:56, August 2, 2020 (UTC) y-yeah, I certainly have not been one eager to be part of any potential Axe-C-Dent support... NJGW (talk) 16:45, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Axe-C-Dent. There isn't really anything here to worry Axecident and make it fall over, so the spinning bar should whack and kill Night-whichever with ease while Shredder tries to take Buzz apart. The flat aides should allow Shredder to do some scratches at best, but I don't expect Buzz to survive longer when Axecident appears and takes a welt out the side. Jimlaad43(talk) 08:48, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Buzz has a wedge, with a flipper capable of toppling Xylon. Yes, Axe-C-Dent 2 will most certainly fall over at some point. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 08:50, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Axe-C-Dent II The heat favourite(!) Shredder will be heading through here, and yes I will be backing up Axe-C-Dent II again. I don't see it being flipped by the lethargic Buzz who has other opponents to focus on, so it's welcome to sneak some damage points in there. TOAST 10:40, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Axe-C-Dent II and Shredder. Shredder can keep attacking at Buzz, and Axe-C-Dent II can have a got at Night Stalker. I don't see Buzz getting a flip in, and Night Stalker wasn't the best of machines. Axe-C-Dent II and Shredder on the Judges. Adster1005 12:07, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz. As much as I'd like to believe Axe-C-Dent 2 would unearth some hidden potential here, I can only imagine Buzz would be a bigger nuisance in this fight as Axe-C-Dent 2 circles aimlessly around the arena trying to find a target to hit amidst the busyness of a four-way melee. SFCJack (talk) 12:13, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz. Seems very simple for me - Axe-C-Dent will be quickly flipped over by Buzz, and then Night Stalker very quickly runs out of steam. Maybe the batteries get knocked loose again. CrashBash (talk) 15:56, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz - simple for me too. Axe-C-Dent died against Destruct-A-Bubble, and there's nothing from Axe-C-Dent 2 to suggest its weapon would be much cop either. It will die at some point, and Night Stalker will get bullied around too. NJGW (talk) 17:45, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz. Yeah, I really want to throw Axe-C-Dent a bone for once, but then I remember a robot I built for my YouTube series once (can't remember its name or whether it ever appeared on screen) that was so front heavy that it'd topple forwards after just a slightest nudge/flip. Buzz can do that, unfortunately. Night Stalker, meanwhile, will just get walked all over by all opponents. Hogwild94 (talk) 18:01, August 2, 2020 (UTC) Shredder and Buzz - Shredder's comfortably through, and whilst I don't rate Buzz too highly it was competent enough in its melee. Axe-C-Dent 2 should be able to show off what it can do (better than it did in its melee anyway), but Buzz had some thick armour and should take the hits, and should be able to get Axe-C-Dent 2 onto its side at some point. Night Stalker really wasn't impressive and any one of the other three could take it out, honestly. Combatwombat555 (talk) 23:02, August 2, 2020 (UTC)

Round 2

Bamm Bamm (19) vs Buzz

Bamm Bamm	Buzz
Votes for Bamm Bamm I'll back Bamm Bamm here. I reckon it'll be able to get enough hits with its axe in order to rack up a Judges' Decision. Adster1005 09:54, August 4, 2020 (UTC) This is a battle that's only going to be won with the House Robots. Buzz can't flip Bamm Bamm over because it's too wide, so the two of them will resort to pushing each other into CPZ's. I can see Bamm Bamm surviving an onslaught by Killalot or Matilda, but that flywheel would destroy Buzz if it caught it, and most other house robots will do it a mischief anyway. Bamm Bamm can keep Buzz near CPZs and it can win. Jimlaad43(talk) 10:06, August 4, 2020 (UTC)	Votes for Buzz Backing the dark horse for this one. Bamm Bamm's axe is decent, but its design is awful when facing decent wedges, as proven against Flepser. Buzz is small and agile enough to continually get underneath its bigger opponent, lifting the Dutch seed around and slamming it into hazards like Flepser did. Bamm Bamm will achieve a hit now and again, but its raised height plus Buzz's small shape will make it difficult for it to consistent hit its foe. Therefore, Buzz's aggression and control should see it win a Judges' decision! SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 09:17, August 4, 2020 (UTC) Same as the above^ Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 09:25, August 4, 2020 (UTC)

Infernal Contraption vs Shredder

Infernal Contraption	Shredder
Votes for Infernal Contraption	Votes for Shredder Welcome to Jimlaad's Robot Wars Hell. It might not be a Heat Final, but it might be enough to scare him away from voting on this one. Anyhow, a simple victory to Shredder, to be honest. Considering Shredder did tank some punishment from S3 and The Alien, the inconsistent hits from Infernal Contraption will not be enough to trouble the purple machine. Shredder can then simply push the axlebot around, dominating through aggression more than damage output. Ultimately, Infernal Contraption will not cause enough damage to win a Judges' decision. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 09:17, August 4, 2020 (UTC) I want IC to win, so badly! But alas this is a battle we sort of saw in Series 7 and well...Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 09:26, August 4, 2020 (UTC) Could Shredder be a semi-finalist? It's looking possible. Anyway, Shredder to constantly go on the aggressive and push IC all over the place, either pitting it, or letting the HR deal with it. Adster1005 10:01, August 4, 2020 (UTC) I don't think Shredder is as solid as its Evolution counterpart, so I don't see it playing out identically to their clash in Series 7. But I do still see it being the constant aggressor. CrashBash (talk) 10:05, August 4, 2020 (UTC)
