Iron Awe has the unfortunate notability of being the robot that was in fights against Typhoon 2 when it first spun up to full speed and against Wheely Big Cheese when it first used its flipper at full pressure. Neither of those really worked out for poor old Iron Awe.

Lets face it Hypnodisc was strong in season 3+4 as a result of other robots not considering armour a priority. Typhoon 2 was so powerful that even reasonably well armoured robots could be smashed through.

@chosone2 2 жыл бұрын
Not being able to get through tough armour was never Hypnodisc's issue. It was always let down by reliability, and some questionable driving at times that exposed Hypnodisc's own weaknesses to attacks.

Typhoon 2 is one ingenious design. High manueverability, a nearly indestructible steel cone with nothing to catch, a low ground clearance making it hard to get under, a low center of gravity, and an angled face for flipping all the way around all the time. Those menacing blades, and that *incredible* kinetic energy that will render electronics useless through massive shock loads make it nearly unbeatable except through sheer luck of it bouncing off of a competitor into the pit.

It's design was a major weakness in my opinion. Had its opponents been more savvy it wouldn't have got to the final or even out the heats. It was so lucky in a lot of its fights. In fact I think Tornado would have beat them,, Storm 2s team for all their intelligence and ability didn't do the obvious of driving it into the house bots enough.

I Think the advantage is: Shortly before Hitting they throttle down and the centrifugal clutch disengages. Also it allows for a "Slipping", which protects the engine from dying. Typhoon 2 is one of the few "Shellspinners" which actually won fights. The clutch is the deal, when you apply it to a bar spinner a tearing chain isn't as much as a problem as it is with most the spinners. Because then you only must catch the impact force with structural integrity, not bring the Chain or the belt to a sudden stop. This robot isn't very careful to the other bots, but when i imagine Mega or Gigabyte, they propelled themself trough the whole arena, they weren't very reliable and the impact threw the Mega/Gigabyte around the whole arena. I like the robot, a "different" thing. Specially with it's very slow spin-up time. Against a "Tombstone" the robot won't win, because Tombstone is a well built and tested machine with very less failures and a significantly lower Spin up time, also more Stored energy with the different blades.

Well said, and I agree entirely. Plus there’s an awful lot of energy in the mass of that armored shell when it gets spun up to speed, allowing for devastating damage to be imparted through those teeth, even against decently armored opponents. It’s spin up time is it’s biggest weakness.

late reply I know but the reason is that in the old series once you lost you where out, you had no more fights to do, it was go home and come back next year. in the new series you where often guaranteed to have more fights through the round robin or the double elimination style in series 10. put simply you can spray a robot all over the floor because they have only 2 hours to get it back together.

Tl;Dr: Ed Hoppitt of Storm 2 is an egotistical liar with a massive victim complex, and Typhoon 2 won fair and square by the rules of the time. It's kind of sad just how much Ed Hoppitt's lies about what happened in Series still permeate this comment section, and the Roboteering community in general. No, Mentorn did not purposefully go out of their way to screw him, if they wanted to do that they could have just thrown the book at the team of the fact that they kept removing and re-attaching the side-skirts in order to prevent flippers from getting under them. This would have counted as an interchangeable device designed to inhibit other robots which was illegal by the Series 7 rules due to the controversy over the Grand Final of the previous wars. Lie number 2 is that the claim they caused internal damage to Typhoon 2 in the form of breaking a chain that drove the spinning shell, the problem is that not only was this chain redundant and did not have any influence over the performance of Typhoon 2, Storm 2 weren't even the ones to break it as it had been broken in the previous fight with X-terminator. Lie number 3 is to do with the pit being put back up during the fight with Tornado. The reason that this was done was because it had been activated by the Refbot, who isn't supposed to do that, was it a consistent ruling, probably not but no sport governing body ever is. And, finally for all of those frothing at the mouth about the damage caused in the final, may I remind you that during these series, the main deciding factor for a judges decision was damage, not aggression, which was something changed for the reboot likely due to the controversy that THIS Grand Final caused. It can also be noted that if Mentorn were trying to screw anyone in Series 7, it was Tornado, as almost all the rules the Ed claims where made targeting him where made in the wake of Tornado winning series 6 and as such would be targeting Andrew Marchant's machine not Ed's. Pretty much nobody behind the scenes has or had a good word to say about Ed, and if you want a prime example as why: During the revival, PP3D, a robot designed and operated by Typhoon 2 alumni Gary Cairns needed a replacement motor. The Sabretooth team had one, and when Ede learned he tried to buy it off of Sabretooth team captain Gabe Stroud for more than the motor was worth because he still held a grudge over a decade later, which is just childishly petty. Thankfully Gabe did not accept Ed's 'offer' and Gary was able to get PP3D up and running again. It's very likely that this incident blacklisted Ed for the rest of the revival as despite promising to come back in series 10, he never did.

Yknow whats weird, apparently typhoon is a live pole spinner, yet it has a directional flag. I know its live pole because apparently megabyte hit it so hard that its pole was bent to hell and thus anable to spin.

Typhoon was the luckiest robot ever. Not only was there the Storm II nonsense, but if Iron-Awe hadn't gotten a lucky flip out of the arena during the heat semifinal, Typhoon's run ends in the heat final. No way was Typhoon getting through Bigger Brother's armor.

That actually isn't true. Flippers can cause the opponent to flip out of the arena. But it does cause damage. Just not damage you can see on the body. Most damage flippers do is done internally on machines with the electronics being jarred loose from the fall damage.

As much as Storm 2 had Typhoon under the ropes for most of the fight, it didn't have a killer weapon to cause any real damage. Design flaw.

Typhoon is a nice machine, just not keen on the teams actions during the middleweight competition. Nor should they have won Series 7. Storm 2 was the far more controlling and aggressive robot.
