    So this season's Battlebots is about to come to a conclusion as 64 robots became 8 and only one can take home the trophy. Who will it be:

    • Hydra: The flipper bot was ranked as the first seed throughout the tournament. Most of their matches usually ended up going through a judges' decision although its only KO was against Hypershock in the round of 32.
    • Whiplash: Matt Vasquez's only loss came against its first fight against Sawblaze, but racked up impressive victories which include two matches against Valkyrie to reach the quarter finals.
    • Ribbot: The underdogs of the tournament who had already caused two major upsets to reach the final 8 by taking down Beta and the number two seeds Uppercut.
    • Black Dragon: Last year, the Brazilians made it as far as the Round of 16 and this year they made it to the final 8. Can they go one step further this time around?
    • Sawblaze: Jamison Go's impressive driving abilities had already led him to several convincing wins although Sawblaze lost out to Uppercut in the early stages. Will Sawblaze blaze their way to glory and get his hand on the trophy?
    • Tantrum: Another underdog who made it very far this season, it racked up victories against Fusion and like Ribbot, stunned the number three seed Bloodsport to reach the final 8. Will their good run continue?
    • Shatter: Having impressed during their time on This is Fighting Robots with Blue, they have made it very far in this season in where they took out Battlebot icon Ghost Raptor, Captain Shredderator and Mammoth to reach the final 8.
    • EndGame: The team from New Zealand had certainly made their mark this season especially when they notched out an impressive first win against former Battlebots champions Tombstone in its first bout. Despite their only loss to Bloodsport, Jack Barker and his machine really showed that they are real contenders within the competition so far.

    Usually when I review films, I don't go straight to either the critics or audience reviews. But I go in to the cinema to watch the film first and once it finished, I can then go and see if any of the reviews matches up with my views and give my opinion.

    I usually tend to look more in to critics (although there are times that I do either respectfully agree or disagree with some of their views) as they give a much more constructive views and better perspective over the audience reviews.

    Has it really been 25 years since Pokemon came out? I had a lot of fond memories back from my childhood which include playing the likes of Pokemon Stadium for the Nintendo 64, Pikachu and Jigglypuff in Smash Bros. 64, watching Ash starting his Pokemon journey in the anime and the Pokemon Trading Cards.

    Here is my impression of the Mortal Kombat 2021 film trailer:

    There are parts of the film which does seem to stay faithful to the source material such as the blood and gore, I'm a bit unsure on some of the effects and parts of the dialogue shown within the trailer especially the execution of Scorpion's "Get Over Here!"

    Whilst it is hard to say how the story/plot, the characters and their development, the performance of the cast etc will go and I will reserve my judgement until its release in cinemas (if it reopens within my country.)

    Its going to be an all important match for Tombstone and Skorpios for this week's Battlebots, both of whom will require a win to keep their hopes advancing to the 32-Bracket alive, but only one can come out victorious.

    Rotator and HUGE, two bots who have yet to earn their first win of their campaign will need to salvage something as they face Big Dill and Kraken.

    Axolotl and War Ez! are both set to make their first Battlebots appearance, but can they handle their first fights?

    Here is my review for the first two episodes of WandaVision (without giving spoilers):

    Overall, although WandaVision took a slightly different direction in contrast to its other MCU films which pays homage to past TV sitcoms from the likes of Bewitched etc, I actually enjoyed it with its very well done film making and story. Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany's characters really shone as well as Katherine Hahn's Agnes. In addition, I felt that the episodes actually have me more intrugued with the amount of easter eggs and references which make me want to anticipate what will happen in the next episode and the future episodes.

    My Rating: 9/10

    As we close the door upon 2020, it has certainly been a very tough and challenging year which has affected our daily lives and around the globe.

    I do like to wish everyone on Smashboards, a Happy New Year and may 2021 bring to you hope, health and happiness. Also stay safe too.

    There had been a lot of discussion about the Beta and Rotator fight. In my opinion, I'm with the judges decision on this one since Beta had clearly won on aggression and control (3 points each) whilst Rotator won on damage points (5 points.)

    Although they are saying that Beta should have used their active weapon in the fight, you have to remember that they cannot fire their weapon carelessly and hammer bots do require quite a lot of precision on when to use it which is why I think John and Gabe were waiting to find a good spot to hit on Rotator.

    Just finished watching the 2022 World Cup qualifying draws for the European continental. I am confident that Wales will be able to gain results against Belarus and Estonia, although it will be interesting to see how well they can handle the Czech Republic and Belgium.

    Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland got pretty tough draws.

    What is Battlebots? Battlebots is an American robotics combat show where competitors build and design their own remote controlled robots to fight against each other within the arena in an elimination style tournament. The show first aired back in 2000 until 2002 on Comedy Central and 13 years...

    Well, Steve is unveiled as Challenger #7 of Fighter Pass 2. Personally I am not too familiar with Minecraft but I do understand its inclusion as it is one of the biggest franchises within the video game industry and I am sure this will potentially catch a new audience.

    I cannot believe that I saw a really bad Youtube video on some guy hating on the Avengers game for all the wrong reasons.

    I'd like to see Dudley coming back. Outside of that, I'm intrigued to see the newcomers this game will have.

    I definitely agree with you as well on the newcomers. I wonder how many will they have?

    Also I do expect to have more news on Street Fighter 5 within this year's E3 event too. Hopefully we'll get to see more new characters as well as new details about the game too.

    Arrgh....I have to admit there are so many characters that I would like to see in Smash, I just wish I could vote for more characters.

    Are you looking forward to the livestream at Thursday?

    I wonder how you feel about the Duck Hunt Dog and (likely) Bowser Jr. getting their trailers revealed that day?

    Are you enjoying Smash 4? Are you planning on getting the Wii U version? Are there any particular character you would like to see as DLC?

    I'm intrigued by 8-player Smash. Overall, I am pleased with the livestream, especially consideirng that not only was DLC announced, but I finally got to see Jigglypuff in HD graphics like I've wanted to. Also, Bowser Jr. trailer was good. I wonder how the Duck Hunt Dog's one will go?

    I'm pretty curious about what DHD's trailer will be like as well.

    I think its just DHD and Jigglypuff that have yet to be unveiled in accordance to the Smash Bros website and I think it maybe possible for the two to be revealed this week.

    You are right about DHD and Jigglypuff. I expect the same.

    I think DHD's trailer could be shown some time next week or something.

    I think Nintendo had a very eventful week with Smash Bros. leaks, Mario Kart 8 DLC and Pokken Tournament.

    I think it will be better to wait and see what comes up within the next two months rather than jumping to conclusions.
