Round 3 vs. Tornado
Gemini flipped Tornado, but since Tornado was invertable, it was not particularly affected. Tornado rammed one half of Gemini onto an arena spike, immobilising it. Since one half of the clusterbot was immobilised, Tornado won the battle.
Gemini won the awards for Best Design and Most Original Entry, and also won the Pinball side event.
Round 2 vs. The Creature
Gemini gave The Creature a few flips, causing part of its armour to break off. The two halves combined to flip The Creature out of the arena - Gemini was the first robot other than Chaos 2 to achieve this.
Round 1 vs. Tornado vs. Kater Killer
The two halves of Gemini used their flippers on both Tornado and Kater Killer, while Tornado rammed Kater Killer around. Kater Killer eventually became immobile, so Gemini and Tornado qualified.
