"Right, let's dissect and destroy this argument." |
An old user who first joined the forum under the handle Life robot arena2 where he was infamous for being short tempered, often starting flame wars in the forum.
Has matured somewhat, in that his english skills, building skills and posting habits (Caps lock, large font size etc. that were commonplace under the Life robot arena2 name.) have improved. However, Avalanche is still known for his aggressive and argumentative nature.
Bot building
DSL: Builds decent IRL bots and is often panned for choosing to place combat effectiveness ahead of visuals in terms of priority.
Challenges
Has had a Stock HW Tag Team challenge against RPJK and lost, however his invertible bot was not AIed as so, resulting in a restart, which he won.
Also had 2 DSL MW Tag Team Title matches, winning his first match vs Helloface, then lost the titles to S.H.I.E.L.D.
Is the current DSL HW title holder.
In current rankings, total score is -5.
Tournaments
Doomed Bots (2 straight losses.) Clash Cubes 2 and 3 (Straight failures.) Havok DQ in: HTF Summer 2014, Battlebots 6/7
Anti Gravity: His most successful bot around 2009-2011, which won 2 matches in Blades Of Fury(2). He first beat Hadron 2 via Judges Decision 36-35, then Dragonslayer by Outwedging him and letting him fling himself out of the arena. He lost the tournament soon after.
Scratch N Sniff and Blitzkrieg 2: Both bots were entered into Battlebots 6, the latter re-entered into 7. Both bots lost all their matches.
Anti Gravity 3 through 4: Has entered several tournaments, including a few Battlebots tournaments and HTF 2014. It has had a range of failures, mainly Havok DQs.
Anti Gravity Evo: Entered into RoboGauntlet. Beat Bloodwing (built by Botomatic1000 to reach the heat final, but was beaten in the heat final by Minor Discord 2 (built by F1Krazy)
Anti Gravity E/5 Mk. II: Entered into a challenge with Baconus_Yum. Lost after being unable to get under the unique wedge of Black Pyramid Deluxe Rock Catcher, and being shoved and flipped out of the arena when trying to self right.
Anti Gravity E/5 Mk. III: Entered into a challenge with TheRoboteer and won.
Fighter Mk. II: Entered into Light vs Dark. Won the first match it appeared in but lost the second to Paladin, resulting in Avalanche contesting the decision to allow three burst flippers entering, claiming they were ruining the meta and inciting a flame war. It then lost to Paladin twice afterwards in the rumble, and again in a Grudge Match. Defeated GrindR in a grudge match, before losing to Solaris.
