[edit] Extreme 1
Catacltysmic Variabots only battle of Robot Wars Extreme 1 was the Mayhem Qualifier with X-Terminator and Panzer Wraith. It did very little and was counted out by Refbot.
[edit] Extreme 2
C.V. represented the Open University for the University Challenge. It was overturned once by Behemoth and appeared to be unable to right itself, fortunatly Behemoth righted C.V. and broke down itself allowing C.V. to go through to the next round along with Infernal Contraption. C.V. then faced the crushing beak of Tiberius 3 in the Semi-Final, it never got its axe into good use in on Tiberius 3 despite hitting it a few times and getting a grip of the Razer-like machine at one stage with Tiberius 3 bearing its beak down on C.V.s shell. As Tiberius 3 then sank its jaw into C.V.s shell, it opened the pit release and C.V. was eliminated after being pushed down.
