4th Matchup - Results
Accelerate, Brake, Lean Back - tetrationiscool won 5-0. least close matchup so far.

5th Matchup
Unorthodox - AngryGroudon vs 悟り - WheelieMaker

 

weem's is cooler

 

Weem's auto is again amazing, with many different versions and great glitches, spins, and wheelies, but what really stood out to me was weem's ability to use the given space. After the straightaway, the auto continues on for at least 5 more seconds before completely exiting the area; an abundance of close calls and genius recycling is exhibited. Unorthodox is nice, with a holdup option as well, but I feel like with mtb it's harder to make more interesting autos, since glitches and spins are harder to replicate than on bmx. It has great wheelies and all, but overall, the auto isn't as good as weem's.

 

weem waam wins

6th Matchup
Idyllic - Backtwice vs For cctvcctvcctv - tetrationiscool

 

oof what can I say, when you've got an auto dedicated to you it looks egotistical to say it's your favourite, but it also looks hella mean on tetrationiscool if you go for the other option, why you gotta do this isekeb
in all seriousness though, idyllic is really cool, backtwice achieves much in such a small area, and each boost, line and gravity is perfectly placed so as to enhance the ride and fluidity. TIC's track isn't as compact and well-thought out as backtwice's, but still very cool nonetheless (I especially like the brush tunnel climb at around the 28 sec mark; the (up+down+left) mtb part is also very neat); however in my opinion the auto isn't quite as good as some of his other stuff.
Really sorry about this tetration, but in this case I'm going with backtwice's track, please find it in your heart to forgive me

 

I'm sure TIC will understand and resist breaking your knee caps... for now

 

Never realized how clean Backtwice's auto was, though I've played it before. Idyllic utilizes the space very well and is crazy smooth, especially the first bmx parts like the boost. But other than the smooth wheelies, I don't find a lot of parts that stand out as much as tetrationiscool's. Tetrationiscool's auto is far longer and manages to use a combination of brush and curve/straight lines for wheelies, and I find them to be just as smooth as Idyllic, if not smoother. Tetration is also using mtb instead of bmx, which makes it harder for tetration to stop the wheels from shuddering. On top of that, the holdup + brake + left for both bikes is extremely cool, and I find that to be another great display of tetrationiscool's creativity.

 

tic ftw

7th Matchup
this is definitely the most unfortunate matchup so far. 2 top tier tracks. remember, detail shouldn't affect your opinion much on an auto.
Terrified - mtt2 vs Shadowland - Crypt

 

shadowland is only well-regarded because of the great detail, in regards to auto it's kinda meh.
ishu and weem's track is longer, had more variety, recycles parts superbly while maintaining good flow etc, so obvious winner is terrified for me

 

Terrified definitely wins this one, it's one of the best autos I've seen. All around great variety of glitches, spins, wheelies (that recycle at 26 seconds), and that squish at 29 seconds. Never seen that before. Swaggabot made a really great smooth auto specifically designed for the player to admire the artwork, but weem's and ishu's auto is just so special. Very good work by swaggabot, but weem and ishu knocked this one out of the park.

 

weem waam wins v2

8th Matchup
Auto ft. Wheelie Maker - Cork vs Sensation (remix) - Backtwice

 

This is a really hard one, weem's and cork's auto has some of the craziest glitches I've ever seen, but Backtwice's auto is so incredibly clean. As much as I love weem's and cork's auto, some of the landings aren't very smooth and the spins were not as impressive as Sensation. Sensation wins this one for me.

 

8th Matchup - Results
Sensation (remix) - Backtwice won 3-2.

9th Matchup
For White_Panther - a_drain vs Tempest ft. Strat - Foundations

 

a_drain's one wins hands down
also a_drain that track is legit fire, I had no idea you were so good at this

 

Wow, thanks cctv! Now I know what it's like to be in cctv's position, lol. Nice of you to pick my track though, isekeb. I think my auto has some more variety than strat's auto, since he was limited to jarring movements that would change the overall feel of the track, but strat's auto is wayy cleaner than mine; at the start of mine it's pretty messy and rough, partly because I was trying out brush autos after having seen darksmoke11's and AngryGroudon's stuff. As the auto progresses it gets a little smoother although still slightly messy. Strat's auto is just like swaggabot's auto from Shadowland, really smooth and clean, except the detail on Foundations' part is integrated with the artwork, and I find that to be really cool. I cant really decide on this one, so I don't think I'll vote, lol.

 

9th Matchup - Results
For White_Panther - a_drain won 5-0.

10th Matchup
Celer - WheelieMaker vs Viridescent II - WheelieMaker

 

Viridescent II wins this one. Awesome glitches and recycling from both autos, but Viridescent II has longer spins, especially the record-breaking spin. Celer has better glitches than Viridescent II, but overall Viridsecent is more consistent than Celer.
