For competitors, BattleBots is like a reunion where we get to see hundreds of our coolest friends from all over the world. One of the hardest parts of the filming postponement has been missing so many of our friends while also being concerned about their well-being.
We decided to start calling them to see how they're doing! Each day over the next few weeks, we'll be posting our video chat with a different team. We hope you'll enjoy hearing everyone's updates about robots, quarantines, and every day life around the world!
Up first, we're chatting with Julia Chernushevich from Ferocity - BattleBot in Waterloo, Canada!
THE KRAKEN BREATHS FIRE 🔥 Kraken - BattleBot - Quarantine time = robot testing and perfecting time.
