Robot History[]
Series 2[]
Victor competed in Heat A of the Second Wars. Victor's design almost put it out of the gauntlet, when it got stuck on a brick. Sir Killalot then attacked them and set them free for a clear run to the finish, allowing it to qualify for the next stage. In the Trials, it got stuck in the barrels, but managed to slice through some with the blade, it knocked down 4 barrels, yet this was still enough to just put it through to the arena stage. In the heat semi-final, Victor went up against Demolition Demon.
However, Victor didn't have enough power and was easily pushed around by Demolition Demon. Victor was pushed into the PPZ, where it quickly got away, however, its drive motors then suddenly burnt out as Demolition Demon carried on ramming it. Even though Shunt tipped Demolition Demon over, Victor lost because of its immobility and was eliminated from the competition.
Series 3[]
Victor 2 was pitted against newcomers Scarab in the first round of the Third Wars. Victor seemed to be the quicker machine of the two, advancing towards its opponent, but Scarab caught its left wheel when the two connected. As Victor 2 retreated, the flail ripped the protective mesh off it. Victor circled Scarab, manoeuvring around to its side, using the flail to land a hefty blow. Victor then forced Scarab onto the arena spikes, where Scarab then slowly lost power and was soon completely immobilised, putting Victor through to Round 2 of the heat. Here, it faced another newcomer and future semi-finalists, Trident. Again Victor 2 was the faster robot, but the flail seemed to have little to no effect on Trident's stronger armour. It exchanged blows with Trident, but the flail weapon of Victor 2 suddenly stopped working. Victor 2 then tried to spin away from Trident's charge as it was unable to push it, but it drove too close to the pit and caught itself on the edge with one of its wheels hanging over the edge. Trident then charged in and pitted it, eliminating Victor 2 from the competition.
