Was there some kind of malfunction going on with Whiplash? I don't think I saw their weapon ever spinning up, and the whole match seemed like something just wasn't working there.

Yeah, I feel like Ripperoni-Hijinx isn't going to be much of a fight unless Rip goes full chaos mode out there, although that's always a possibility. Hijinx just... isn't doing the thing.

El Fideo posted:There are some jobber bots I like and some jobber bots I don't care about. I like hijinx, but it might be more the aesthetic and the team. Jen Herchenroeder is the most fun as a captain. Yeah, everything about Hijinx other than its performance is great. It's a charismatic enough bot and team that I really want it to do better, or at least look more like a contender instead of a tomato can.

Yeah, this is an interesting card -- not a lot of obvious showstoppers, but a lot of weird fights, and it'll be interesting to see some of these bots get fights where they're not instantly getting exploded. Maybe optimistic, but I'm still riding the high of Big Dill looking plausible for three minutes against Madcatter, so LET'S GO CRAPBOTS

Great Beer posted:minibots that do nothing but high center opponents To be fair, has any other minibot ever done anything effective in a fight? High-centering is about all they can do besides be mascots/get team kids some stick time.

MVP of the episode is definitely the small child on Team Copperhead yelling "yay we won!"

ewe2 posted:It really was a case of pointless appeals, not just Monsoon's. Shatter didn't understand the concept of control either. Basing your case on "they're running away" is not a winning strategy my man. That Shreddit Bro appeal came from nowhere. Why can't they be cool like Matt Spurk and just give them high-5's when he lost? Too busy being some gang or something. Yeah, Shreddit Bro's really felt like a Hail Mary, which is sympathetic given that it sounds like that team is at risk of not getting asked back at all after their lack of success, but they had absolutely no case. I can almost understand Shatter playing the "our weapon worked, theirs didn't" card, and maybe just some general confusion because what the gently caress even was that fight, but it was a pretty shaky argument. In general, I suspect the teams aren't taking the right message from Team Malice's successful appeal -- that it was successful because Bunny Soriel had a concrete, objective argument for the judges to consider, and if you can't put together that level of argument, you're probably just wasting everyone's time.

MikeNCR posted:In the Horizon fight, both disks spun at the end. Probably not a shock that the judges were making extra sure they were watching for powered motion after the Malice/Valkyrie appeal. Oh, okay -- I thought they'd lost a disk, which would make the Shatter appeal make more sense. Thanks for the clarification!

Giving Mammoth extra weight for an exhibition show feels like a no-brainer. Every match makes it obvious how thin that 250 pounds is spread over the frame.
