## Robot History

### AWS 9

In the first round, Nigel faced Militant and Satan's Little Helper. At first Nigel darted towards Refbot before turning around and attacking Militant from behind. Satan's Little Helper charged in and bashed the two out of the way. Not much is known from that point on or how Nigel was eliminated.

### AWS 10

In the first round of the Main Championship, Nigel faced Militant and Anteater where it qualified alongside Militant.

    In the second round, Nigel faced Pants. Nigel and Pants both met in the middle with Pants' axe getting stuck into Nigel as it hammered away. Nigel attempted to get underneath Pants but it slipped away and retaliated with the axe, once again Nigel got underneath, more successfully this time but was impacted by the axe. Nigel got under Pants a third time and this time rammed it out of the arena.

In the Quarter Finals, Nigel faced Chronotrigger where it lost.

Nigel also fought in the European Championship, where in the first round it faced Chronotrigger and Hansome Be Wonderfull.

    Nigel was flipped on its side immediately by Chronotrigger who then pushed Hansome Be Wonderfull out of the arena in quick succession. Chronotrigger then shunted the side stranded Nigel off the arena on the other end.

### AWS 11

In the first round, Nigel faced Anteater and won.

    In the second round, Nigel faced Militant. Militant started off the aggression but was pushed back towards the arena edge, its flywheel managed to catch and tear off the wedge. However, despite the damage, Nigel successfully pushed Militant off the arena.

In the third round, Nigel faced War Ant. The battle did not last long with War Ant shoving Nigel around the arena and eventually off with immediate effect.

### AWS 12

In the first round, Nigel faced Anto and Electra. Nigel focused on Anto but gets attacked from behimd by Electra who flips it, then pushed into the trench where it was eliminated.

### AWS 13

    In the first round, Nigel faced Angus and Combat Ant. Angus made a slow start as Nigel zipped around and charged towards Combat Ant, who had spun up to speed. In one hit, Combat Ant tore the side of Angus off and sent it off the arena as Nigel was blown away from the impact also. Nigel then darted off the arena to save itself from any more damage, but still qualified.

In the second round, Nigel faced Ramsy, Pixiedust and Entrant. Nigel had drive problems and almost backed off the arena as both Entrant and Ramsy ganged up on Pixiedust. Ramsy got underneath Pixiedust and for a while did nothing as it struggled to gain traction. Ramsy then flipped Pixiedust over which resulted in the domed robot rolling off the arena. Nigel qualified with Ramsy and Entrant.

    In the third round, Nigel faced Pants, Entrant and Psycho Ant. All four robots met at the edge of the arena before Nigel backed off and slammed into Pants, shoving it across the length of the arena and off of it. Nigel managed to hook itself off and on the arena which caused itself to fall. Entrant was caught from behind and shoved off by Psycho Ant afterwards. Nigel qualifies with Entrant and Psycho Ant.

In the fourth round, Nigel faced the familiar War Ant. Both machines met in the middle, charging about and flip flopping over each other as they tried to push one another. War Ant eventually got around the side and shoved Nigel against the side wall before backing off and being rammed by Nigel. War Ant managed to lift itself upwards, flipping Nigel and causing it to toppled backwards off the arena. It lost because of it.

### AWS 54

    In the first round, Nigel faced Termite Cluster. Immediately, Nigel was shunted back against the arena wall by the powerful shoving power of Termite Cluster. After a while, Termite Cluster backed away where Nigel attempted to flip Termite Cluster but mistimed it allowing Termite Cluster to ram Nigel across the arena. Nigel struggled to get away and fight back as Termite Cluster shunted it into side walls all over the arena. Eventually, Nigel accidentally drives off but ends up trapped by the lip of a pit, which allowed Termite Cluster to charge in and pit Nigel.

    In the loser's bracket, second round, Nigel faced Brain. Brain made the initial charge into Nigel, attempting top flip it over, but in turn Nigel flipped Brain, causing it to topple onto its back. Nigel shunted Brain across the arena, as it struggled to self right, however eventually it did. For a while, the two robots chased each other with neither able to gain purchase. After a long tedious match, where neither opponent was able to flip the other, Brain backed towards a pit where Nigel took advantage and promptly pitted them.

    In the loser's bracket, third round, Nigel faced AWG Crimpet. Both robots charged in with AWG Crimpet managing to push Nigel back, while clamping down with the claw. Nigel, however, pushed back and the two began pushing against each other until Nigel backed away with AWG Crimpet chasing afterwards. AWG Crimpet managed to grab hold of Nigel again, and attempted to pit it, however, Nigel flipped and in turn managed to use its flipper as a clamp, clamping down on AWG Crimpet and pushing it about. Once again, the two started chasing one another with AWG Crimpet having an advantage, grabbing hold of Nigel every so often. Nigel soon attempted to use its flipper as a clamp and charged in to grab AWG Crimpet, however, this left the internals of Nigel exposed and allowed AWG Crimpet to grab hold and shunt it about, where it eventually pitted Nigel.
