Rip it off Giga!

Gonna watch this on the app tomorrow. Go gigabyte

There's so much unspoken love for Battle Bots please keep it around. And bring back Robotica!

Missed it damn

this bonus match very interesting

Whew! Almost missed it. Glad I have my tv to auto tune to battlebots.

QUACK QUACK! 😀 😀 😀

Go Roomba GO!

I like Chronos' teeth designs. They're like mini-wedges.

Where's Bronco this season?

“Let it rip! Let’s fight an epic battle. Face off and spin the metal!”

Repeat!

I don’t know if it aired on tv yet but I just skipped to the fight on science go

Beyblade 😂

New episode Friday.

Wed. is a repeat of Fri here in Texas.

Where is tantrum??

Just bought the whole season off Amazon. Felt bad that it's such a low price. #readyforseason5

Dude what the hell is going on with direct tv? It’s recording the wrong episodes and on demand is only partial. Wth

The judging is awful. Get some judges with some perspective. Zero testosterone.

Spin it to win it! Wait, wrong spinners :-p jk

Gigabyte is me pick to win tonight

Good fight between Black Dragon and Texas Twister. Really surprised the judges gave it to Texas Twister. Black Dragon really seemed to control the fight after both bots' primary weapons went out.

Oh boy, I can’t wait to see what Reddit does with an entire blank fight card. They had lots of fun with the main event one.

we'll be good... promise (well, good enough 😉)

You called.........

I am a simple man. I want huge v1 vs huge v2. That is all

Main Event: SOW Vs Capt Shrederator HUGE vs Mammoth vs Deep Six The Four Horsemen vs Gemini Hydra vs Bronco Falcon Vs Minotaur Bombshell Vs Cobalt Battlesaw Vs Chronos Bonus fight: Nightmare vs Bloodsport vs Texas Twister HOW WOULD THAT FIGHT CARD BE?!

You called out three of the worst, but Shuntposting is Legion.

Ciekawe kto się z kimś zmierzy?

This looks like you want us to make the fightcards so the mess up with Monsoon/Doubledutch from last year doesn't happen again!

main event for me : Biteforce vs bronco

Hope to see Copperhead in next fight card. That thing is so well built..✌

(Main Event) Son Of Whyachi Vs Tombstone Bronco Vs HUGE Witch Doctor vs Bite Force Minotaur Vs Sawblaze Gigabyte vs Lock Jaw WhipLash Vs Cobalt The Four HorseMen Vs HyperShock Scorpios Vs Mammoth

Can Mammoth help me move house? Need some help lifting couches and cupboards over the balcony

I look forward to seeing more of this bot!

It was good to see a new approach to weaponry; one with size, swing and majesty. It was fun to watch.

Don't think it will hold up very well to a spinner. He would have to get lucky and flip someone out of the box before they have a chance to get to him.

I'm a Mammoth fan. Really like how completely different it is, and yes, the out of the box way of thinking. I would hope they could come up with a way to cover the tires and still make weight though.

I must admit: I was quite surprised to see this thing move as quickly as it does.

It only won because it competed against a component that wasn't maneuvering correctly and had a non-functioning weapon. Got very lucky.

An unorthodox bot and I love it. I don’t like the look but the practicality and out of the box thinking is great

What’s the weight limit this year? I’m guessing they gave up armor for size to come in under it.

Please tell me this thing will fight Huge!

I’m going to be honest, looking at it I thought it was just made to be big. After seeing it fight, you’re team clearly worked hard to come up with an original concept that should have a place in the competition.

Loved watching this unorthodox bot get it's first win last week!

if only the weapon spun faster, could cause some serious damage.

Is this the final form? 😉

Thought the spinner was going to be more affective. I was waiting for Mammoth to literally punt Axe Backwards across the battle arena. Still awesome though. Solid win!

*assault bicycle

Should be in it's own category of bots. A different weight division.

The bigger they are the harder they fall

I want to see bronco flip this monster in the air

That was the weirdest looking bot I’ve seen,but it pulled off a win. (And they laughed when David went against Goliath). So we’ll see

The design is awesome, but I think it will be mauled by someone like Tombstone

Heard Nelly met 'em on ancestry.com

Just give us our mammoth v huge fight

It as no protection at all.

The drive on Shatter is amazing. I think it's a great potential for hammer bots in the future to become competitive. I'd love to really see that hammer fly as they were expecting it to. Witch Doctor still certainly earned the win, but that end was a little hairy. Hoping they clear that up in the rest of the competition, I know they did by RE: Mars, that's for sure

Going off the points system for this year I personally had it down for shatter 4 to 3. Damage obviously more was caused by WD but not counting the damage to the parts that are supposed to fly off. It was caused early on so definitely they won that. Control I gave that to shatter, that design of tyre really caused WD some problems lining shatter up for a front attack so I'd give it to them. Aggression as soon as the hammer broke shatter was really trying to get stuck in and for most of it chasing after WD and being the aggressor. This makes it 4-3 shatter. BUT after thinking about it the reason why I'm guessing WD won was down to the pivotal moment shatter missed completely and allowed the attack to break the hammer. If that's the case you'd assume that it would have lost a lot of momentum on the control portion. Which is why i think now WD won. Still....best fight I've seen so far between the first 2 episodes and the RE:Mars livestream.

WD, but a better-secured hammer could have made the difference. Would love to see Shatter's drive mechanism on a full body spinning bot like Captain Shreaderator. It would be interesting to see those wheels on a non-directional weapon.

Definitely WD. WD was never fully disabled, they were only stuck in debris. Some of the fights have been so disappointing because of similar issues, all one dominating only to get stuck or randomly disabled.

It was really close and I usually lean away from spinners, but I think WD barely won this one. Shatter was extremely impressive with the omniwheel strafing drive though. Looking forward to more fights from both bots.

I showed episode 2to my third grade class yesterday. They loved it

Shatter definitely has potential, but it was Witch Doctor's fight.

Witch Doctor deserved the win. Did more damage and destroyed shatter’s weapon. Great driving by team WD. Really the only damage with doctor suffered was from itself. Need to fix that issue.

I love both teams and their bots, but Witch Doctor clearly won this. At the end they got hung up on some debris and had some mechanical failure, but they bullied Shatter hard for half the fight and removed Shatter’s hammer head. Shatter never got a hit with their hammer. They only got good hits after the head was removed. I was surprised shatter managed to out push Witch Doctor though.

I think watching it in real time (with Bots FC) I had 2-0 WD on aggression (Shatter had some hits without the hammer head but not enough to split it), 1-1 on control, and 2-1 Shatter on damage because WD did catch on fire and all, so 4-3 WD. I am curious what is listed as the difference between 2-0 and 1-1 in a category

If shatter had kept their head on it would of been a very different fight once WD stalled out. I was impressed with shatters armor. It seemed to work as planned.

Witch Doctor. But I hope to see more of Shatter in the future. It's such an interesting and beautiful bot.

Comes down to main weapon... WD took it. Shatter is an Amazing bot, but they should stick to the sharp weapon and weld it on.

I just don’t see hammer-types being competitive in the long run. Success is binary, if you hit, ok, got ‘em. But a miss is a complete miss, no ability to pile up infliction over the course of a bout. Pretty much every other style of weapon can create additive damage over the course of a fight... especially important when it goes to the judges. My $.02

Although both bots struggled with reliability in this fight, Witch Doctor deserved the win in this fight in my opinion. I had high hopes for Shatter though! Typically I think 'meh' when it comes to hammer bots but this one was impressive. I really loved the wheel design and that ablative armor. They gotta do something about that hammer not falling off in the middle of a fight though lol. I guess we'll just wait and see if they improve on their next fight

WD. That hammer and his amaze wheels were atrocious.

I would have liked Shatter to win, I am ok with the decision. Mainly as WD was the more aggressive of the 2.

Definitely Witch Doctor. Shatter didn't do a whole lot and was on defense for the majority of the fight. Yes Witch Doctor was on fire but it kept on trucking. It stuck for a moment on the battle box floor. You could see that it's wheels were still spinning the whole time. Shatter's drive wheel are impressive!

I realize that they were looking for "The Perfect Hit", but sometimes a couple more "Close Enough" hits do the same job. With spinners like this, the longer the round goes on, the more chance you'll take a huge damage hit. And they did because they were trying to play boxer in the ring and dance around for too long. Definitely looking for more from these guys, though. Great promise in their design. Plus, with those wheels (which was an awesome new concept that I loved), they don't have traction and they were just getting pushed around. That's not going to win the long game if the weapon is disabled. Hit hard, hit fast, hit first. And second. Hopefully third, too. Sadly, Witch Doctor seems to keep having longevity problems in the box. This is what, the 3rd time they've caught themselves on fire internally with three different revisions over the last few years? They give about 3 good hits and then their weapon is dead and then they start smoking. They have got to find a solution for that. If the fuel for the flame is leaking and catching, ditch the flame thrower because it's not helping.

Witch Doctor did more damage. That is why WD won the fight.

Witch doctor all day long. His problems weren't caused by anything shatter did. I can also see shatters weapon getting knocked off pretty regularly especially against spinners.

I think the judges got it right. If Witch Doctor can sort their reliability issues, they have a contender. I'm dying to see what Shatter can do. There's a lot of great thinking behind that bot and it could be the first effective hammer since Beta. They do seem to have an aim problem. Maybe they should try to get hold of Zoe Stephenson...

I feel like Witch Doctor won. Yeah it spontaneously combusted near the end but otherwise it was able to inflict a surprising amount of damage to Shatter. Now about Black Dragon vs Texas Twister...

Witch Doctor won by a rather wide margin.

Certainly Witch Doctor, but it does make me excited to see what Shatter can do when the hammer works fully!

Love the concepts. Imagine those wheels on a spinner.

These hammerbots are useless

Shatter got Shattered and also showed the vulnerability of their weapon to be ripped off. Think what a horizontal spinner could do to that thing.

That was a great show last night. Maybe shatter needs a man bun 😃

Great concept that not quite translated into battle.

Always the best

I love the ideas for the omni-wheels (I forget what they're actually called), and the ablative armor that's velcroed to the titanium.

Africa and light issue..l miss this great game

Great armor tho.

Might wanna try welding a hammer head on instead of having them composite and interchangable... Looks like we got another BlackSmith LMFAO! I do really like this bot tho, joking aside, the armor and wheels are genius! I'm rooting for you #TeamShatter!

The wheels are a great idea and one I think we will see more of in the future, the hammer weapon has shown time and again that it really does nothing. The timing required to make a hit it too difficult in my opinion.

Almost a good fight but the Hammer got knocked off!☹️

Need stronger bolts, lol.

Not a good start for them

Last night‘s episode was a good one.

I still think they have potential anyhow.

The girl on the right should be wearing a hard hat in case the hammerhead falls off. 😂😂😂

I thought the WITCHDOCTOR Owners were FATHER & DAUGHTER!!!

I feel like the wheels were a detriment. That it made for sloppy driving.

Huge hammer!

Looks like Beta got a makeover...

Those wheels on a bot with a better primary weapon might be really tough.

Might wanna tighten the bolts on that hammer next time.:)

That was a good fight.

The funny wheels are a neat idea...but this is the Battlebox, not a skating rink.
