Setting the DVR box now, though I'll probably watch live this week.

First, Bronco, if you can't beat Huge it might be time to retire and let Hydra take over as a flipper bot... Bronco has had some serious issues this season, and the fight against Huge is a must-win IMHO.

Minotaur against Shatter I have to go with Minotaur. IIRC they got their spinner issues worked out. The only potential downside would be if Shatter's crumble-away armor potentially gets stuck in Minotaur's motors.

While I like Kraken's style, I can see the bot being ripped in half by SoW. That thing's spinner bar packs a whallop and Kraken doesn't have a way to respond to that. So SoW will either kill Kraken, or itself...

Rail Gun Max against Wan Hoo... In theory Rail Gun Max should have an advantage based on its weapon.

Witch Doctor versus Gigabyte. I forget if Witch Doctor has an appropriate wedge to apply or not. But if they do this is definitely a fight for it. They'll want to deflect Gigabyte up into the air where the bot can once again destroy its righting arm.

Breaker Box against Bloodsport... If Breaker Box's face can make like Duck! and block a hit I'd give them the win. But IIRC their wedge is much thinner and lighter. Still, a high speed box rush is probably their best bet. Get in quickly and rough up Bloodsport's orientation to keep the blades from reaching speed and they should have a decent match.

For the last fight, I have to go with Whiplash. Texas Twister was way too passive in their last fight, where they KNEW and expressed that the best strategy was to rush their opponent with their metal shield. Whiplash on the other hand has proven itself quite capable in terms of both driving and strategy.
