JoeBlo is currently running a follow up to Clash Cubes which is one of the few Super Heavyweight Tournaments in existence. The sheer announcement of it spawned a lot of showcased SHW's. and more and more people wanting to join after entries were closed which resulted in 6 robots fighting for the last place of the tournament

Notable Robots

CFTW - Cube from the West is a Lightweight joke robot that was built for various uses in Clash Cubes, the look and name is a parody from the "legendary" Spinner from the West. Basically a small cube with 2 Shiny Hubs and a chewblade just like the real SFTW. Recently JoeBlo entered it in a match with Life Robot Arena2's Super Heavyweight robot COID which in a humorous outcome won

Well received by the community.

Hypno Blender - A robot that was entered in the first round of Brawl of the Builders. noted for being a robot that could man handle others with wedges while not having any of its own, despite beating Sage first round the robot was withdrawn because of a strange collision mesh related fault when it lost an external Z-Tek thus dropping out round 1 which meant Sage progressed.

Death By Angles - otherwise known as the "Controversial Number 2" an Antweight robot that won bot of the month for June 2009 by a rather large voting landslide however was one of the most controversial to win as the robot utilized YU AI Hammers which the rules stated AI parts were legal but there was no specifics to what couldn't be used so JoeBlo was handed the win

Natural High - A stock middleweight Pop-Up entered in RODE, was underestimated due to having static wedges but managed to win the first round rumble (which included 2 snapper wedged bots), the match was determined to be Void as the match was found to be filmed in DSL.

Gamebreaker/Playmaker - A superheavyweight flipper cluster bot (each half currently weights 550kg) that was originally built to fill in for a missing place in Clash Cubes 2 should the bracket not fill up... the bot is first going to been seen in action in the Clash Cubes AI Pack. one half of the cluster alone was able to defeat Grog the Vengeful within 30 seconds in a 1 on 1 match

The Iron Outlaws - A swarm of 4-6 Lightweight bots that act as a 2 part middleweight cluster bot, basically the robots are all identical except for the weapon system on the end of an internal Snapper2 JoeBlo can then specify which of the 2 will compete in a match essentially having a robot with interchangeable weaponry. while it has yet to be seen how effective it it will be, it is noted as it is the first of its kind to enter a tournament.
