  • The Adams family return with a new version of their machine that reached the Semi-Finals of The Third Wars, with Wild Thing. The likes of Sir Chromalot and The Steel Avenger look to provide stern competition.
    NOTE:
    As aforementioned, Heat N will not be uploaded. H2 originally broadcasted the heat, but completely missed out the Heat Final when they went to an advert break, so I deleted the episode as I needed the space and hoped that they'd broadcast the heat again - something they have yet to do. Apologies about this, but it's something that can't be changed right now. Of course, if it is broadcasted, I'll record it and upload it to the Series 4 playlist.

    It also feels like the person who made the series 5+intro went through Killalot's on-board camera from this episode and thought "That'll do ,lets use those shots, off to the pub!"

    I personally believe Gemini did not have an unfair advantage in the main competition or pinball. Sure, there were two robots, but they had the same weight limit as every other team, so each was half the weight as other robots. Also they still had to drive well to earn the win.

    • @josephilsley3028
      @josephilsley3028 2 роки тому +2

      Agreed. This heat was more or less a free pass to the semis for Wild Thing. Humphrey's team came unprepared with any spare drive chains, and Reactor really struggled to keep up. Steel Avenger managed to make some effort, but not to a great extent. If Wild Thing had the generosity to let Steel Avenger rain down a couple more axe blows before its finishing move, the final would result in less one-way traffic on Wild Thing's part, and end on a more respectable note. Better still Steel Avenger could've swapped heats with Tornado for example, then the strength of competition can be well balanced out.

    Steel Avenger Vs Sir Chromalot can be described as "Wait for a good hit".

    • @josephilsley3028
      @josephilsley3028 8 місяців тому +2

      As a matter of fact, that's what Steel Avenger had planned for this particular fight. Throughout the unedited run, it landed a reasonable number of axe hits on Sir Chromalot, compared to just a lone strike following a string of near-misses as seen in the final cut. I'd reckon the editor in charge was either amateur at best or has a weird sense of humour.

    Wild Thing certainly lived up to its name in the first heat. Not sure Steel Avenger knew what had hit it.
    Second heat, three fairly futile bots, but Sir Chromalot at least looks the part.
    Gemini (as JP said) might have been built for the pinball. They had a two-to-one advantage in scoring over any other single bot. So as far as I'm concerned, Spawn of Scutter still leads.
    And Wild Thing repeated its performance, this time with Reactor, shoving it all round the arena. Doesn't JP talk a lot of utter rubbish? - 'Wild Thing will be disappointed with the way it ended'. Why would they be? Reactor failed to score one hit against them.
    Was JP watching the same video feed as us? "Wild Thing got to this stage [the final] by beating Humphrey with the Steel Avenger" - well no, Wild Thing spent most of the first heat pushing Steel Avenger around while the house thugbots demolished Humphrey. And as the first heat went, so went the final (but with the absence of Humphrey).
    Wild Thing is fast and manouvreable, altogether an excellent little bot.

    4th or at the maximum 3rd is what they're aiming for? Good-o!

      @@dasbanhammer They were driven well, but they had a 2:1 advantage in the Pinball.
      In the regular competition, they have the advantage of two robots, but the disadvantage of only being half the weight and easier for another standard-weight bot to knock out. In the pinball these disadvantages don't exist.

    • @cr10001
      @cr10001 2 роки тому +2

      @Pope Leo X My point was, in the regular competition, they have advantages and disadvantages which tend to cancel out. On the whole, it's fair. In the pinball, they have a massive advantage of two bots, and virtually no disadvantages - IMO they really should not have been allowed to compete in the pinball.
