Diotoir's Wacky Rumbles: Series 1

**Diotoir’s Wacky Rumbles** is a fanmade Robot Arena 2 competition using the 2013 Robot Wars + mod. The competition started on the 25th January 2017 and ended on the 31st January 2017. The series marked the beginning of the Diotoir's Wacky Rumbles series.

## Format

The series consisted of six episodes, involving five qualifying episodes and a Grand Final, with a sixth finalist being chosen as a wildcard by the judges. There were eight robots per heat, of the forty in total.

Four robots fought in each first-round qualifier, of which there were two per heat, allowing two robots to qualify through them, like the two series prior. In the second round, a round robin format is used, where the four robots to qualify out of the first round in each heat will all face each other in a head-to-head battle, even if they had already met in the first round. The Grand Final is the same structure as a normal episode, but with three robots in each eliminator battle instead of four. Two robots progressed from each eliminator, and faced-off against each other in head-to-head battles, with the two highest scoring robots progressing to the final battle of the series.
