History

Tyler Boyer was fighting in Solaris VII's BBL for the Regulus Wrath Stables during the Dark Age.[1]

He was a fighter in the 3086 Championship.[1]

In the fifth week he fought against Abel Dorsey. Boyer's used his Wasp to dominate the fight from the start. The fight was ten minutes of fast-moving action when Dorsey's SRMs peppered Boyer's 'Mech, but Boyer's shots finally struck Dorsey's weakened left torso, destroying it and reduced the Commando to a single SRM-4 rack. This forced Dorsey to concede the match.[1]

After five weeks Calidia Raines was first in Class Two division, while Tyler Boyer was second.[2]

For week six, he did beat Steve Miller from the Star Rangers Stables, making him Class Two division leader.[3]

For week seven he was paired against Acca Haig from the Black Eagles Stables. Things between both stables were soured, and did not get better when Boyer's Stinger entered with the Regulan Hussars' emblem on its chest. Haig's Panther, painted in FWL purple, had the House Marik eagle prominently displayed on the torso. It quickly became obvious that both had modified their 'Mechs. Boyer's lasers struck the Panther at longer than normal range (most probably being ER Laser), only to do little damage to the Black Eagle 'Mech's glazed armor. Haig fired her ERPPC and the powerful beam nearly took Boyer's head off. The next twenty-two minutes were ugly, as it became clear that each warrior was out for blood. Unable to do serious damage to the Panther quickly, Boyer kept moving to avoid Haig's weapon, but Boyer's odds finally gave out when one of Haig's PPC blasts vaporized his right leg. Boyer tried to fight on, but officials, fearing that things would get out of hand, quickly called the fight and awarded Haig the win. The Wraths have filed an official protest, which would be ruled on next week.[3] The complain was not accepted and the result of the match was kept.[4]

After week nine, he was still very well positioned, with rookie Carlos Valdez first with 25 points, with him in second place, and Lo Yen as third[5].

After week twelve, the Class Two standings had Carlos Valdez in the top slot with 25 points, with Tyler Boyer tied with Valdez in points, but with Valdez's timing points total being superior. Lo Yen was third, while Cuvier had dropped to fourth.[6]

In week thirteen he was again paired against Abel Dorsey. From the start, Boyer drove Dorsey all across the Deep, never allowing the Commando set long enough to deliver an effect counter-strike. This one-sided fight ended with the Commando missing an arm and leg and Boyer on top of the Class Two division.[7]
