BattleBots

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Yeah, I hope so too, because it would really suck if they didn’t get an appearance.

This should be a good main event.  

A little preview of Tombstone vs Gruff  

 
Also, the fight card:  

We just got a confirmed fight for this week’s episode:  
 
This one should be very fun.

Last Friday’s fight was helluva fun, and Rotoator being able to withstand Death Roll’s punishments is an amazement, even though it lost. And End Game just LITERALLY rips Cobalt’s wedge apart that it just impales right into the arena ceiling. I wonder how they’re gonna be able to get it out?

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Not sure, though it was kind of sucky that the new wheels Cobalt used only hindered it.
 
However, I have to say, Gruff is one tough as hell bot to sustain a beating from Tombstone for three full minutes without even dying.
 
And, if you’re wondering, they were stuck on a bolt at the end of the match.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
Yeah, Gruff only got itself KO’d from having its lifting forks stuck in the killsaw slot and unable to get it out. They could’ve called a time out though it’s only possible if both robots were to get themselves stuck together. And I hope next episode we’ll see new robots that haven’t competed yet, including Sharkoprion, Double Jeapordy and Battlesaw.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Yeah, though I did hear that Sharko had a match, not sure who it was against, same for Nightmare.
 
I hope we get to see Battlesaw too, Double Jeopardy did have a rumble with the Four Horsemen and another bot.

And, speaking of the Four Horsemen:
 

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
I wonder if there’s a video for it, unless it’s a teaser.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Not sure, though it seems like a match for this week’s episode.

So, this just got posted over on r/Battlebots:
 

 
Holy hell, what even happened here.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
Kingpin died before it even began, apparently.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Yeah
 
Plus, Shatter’s hammer is no joke either.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
Quite more effective than Blacksmith’s hammer too.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Indeed, it really is an effective hammer.

I actually think Shatter! has what it takes to take down Minotaur.

@Background Pony #EE55  
I’d be interesting to see if that happens, because if it does, then Mino is going to go 0-5.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
2-5, if you count the Desperado Tournament, where it won against both Lucky and End Game.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
True

This week’s fight card:  

 
F in the chat for Kraken.
 
Also, next week’s fight card lol:  

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
So China vs. China, and a flipper at 0-2 taking on a robot with massive wheels… this’ll be interesting. And flipper against flipper for next Friday too.
 
And there’s still no robots that haven’t competed yet. What happened to a couple of them like Battlesaw, Daisy Cutter, Sharkoprion, Double Jeapordy, Extinguisher, and The Four Horsemen? They were already confirmed to compete, why were they not shown yet? Did they back out or something?

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
I’m not sure, we’ll have to wait and see when they show up or something.
 
Edit: Also, one of the members of team Extinguisher posted this over on reddit:

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
Especially because they’ve been confirmed to enter but were never shown in TV either Science or Discovery. I’m just hoping they’d extend more episodes, rather than just 20 eps like last year, especially since they have a pretty sizeable roster too.
 
EDIT: So a teaser image between the two new bots, then. Thanks for it.
