Captain Shrederator seems like they really need to reconsider what they're doing at this point, outside a few good wins they're kind of just easy pickings at this point

Clearly what we need are full vertical spinners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjEhA-L1Sf0&t=28s Or some sort of hosed up sphere that probably will self-destruct on impact If it'd count as moving under its own power somehow though it could be a 500 pound nightmare ball. That'd be fun

The Emulsifier/Fusion fight I think probably should've been called as a draw, they both got beat to hell and were mostly crippled by the end. Super good fight though Poor Mammoth lol RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Jan 12, 2023 |

Terrain is the best option imo but it may require a larger box so it's not just one thing or another Ramp a hill and crash on top of Hydra

I was thinking, they should have an additional "budget" tier level of bot to accommodate the Rustys of the world

Yeah this seems like a really crappy way to do or present that appeals process, but Malice definitely won that one.

There was a few seconds of Lisa pointed out in the video that Malice's weapon was running at the end of the match so I think it's both that they present their argument and what to look for (or not), then the judges take a look anyway. Valkyrie's captain seemed shell shocked though.

Yeah I don't really have a big issue with Jake Ewert other than he should probably have shut up about losing a little sooner; even with the cowcatcher thing it seemed a lot more like a referee failure than him flaunting anything, in retrospect Tombstone's just funny because Ray Billings seems like really obviously a nice guy having a good time Mason's guest commenting next episode and I don't know if it'd be funner if he keeps up his shtick during the whole thing or drops it entirely just for that. The guest commentating has been fun though they should keep it up, even if mostly they're just awkward.

Yeah with that one tbh if it were me I wouldn't have stopped either. It's still moving and they didn't start a countdown, and it was really only a matter of seconds.

PostNouveau posted:There is some chatter online about something I didn't notice during the episode that Capt. Shred team essentially tapped out and was asking Riptide team to stop hitting them. No tapping out in Battlebots and all, but if that's true it's some real bad sportsmanship. I saw that but we know that they tend to splice stuff like that oddly so I wonder. The ref said they gave a warning though, so maybe it's worse than it looked to me. Unrelatedly Mammoth is neat, but man they need to reconsider what they're doing. It can't seem to do anything without lifting itself. Mason's a good commentator for this! He knows when to drop it lol RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Mar 9, 2023 |

To Starchild's credit, it's a pretty cool looking robot Ominous needs reach and some ability to push forward at all, most of the fight it just sort of sat that and hovered in front of Shatter Riptide: he can't keep getting away with it Also again what on earth are the editors doing with the pre-fight stuff lol, that cut to Florian lmao. They need a new lighting solution too

Lucky/Cobalt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxKNZK_GMoY Brackets look brutal but mostly I want to see Riptide eat poo poo this year Pretty good season so far though! Really feels like they dial things in more every year.

Sure let's go for it Round 1 - Switchback/Malice will probably come down to which bot's weapon takes a poo poo first, and Malice's does that a lot. Beta I think could probably tank Whiplash? It hasn't been super great this season either. Realistically Black Dragon will win but I'm cheering on the pizza delivery team. Right side I think is actually probably pretty straight forward, though Bloodsport may win out here.So on through the rest on the left, I expect Minotaur will sweep, I'm going to cheer on the pizza team anyway, but on the right I think End Game will finally put Riptide in their place this season. Hypershock is well and good but I think they're going to get crunched. I think probably it'll be Huge v Mad Catter and it's a toss-up here. Really though what'll probably happen is Minotaur vs. End Game and though I'd like the Brazilians to win it's probably still End Game's game to lose, but I'm going to go cheer on Ripperoni either way If Minotaur vs Sawblaze happens I think it comes down entirely to who flanks who first
