Back on July 24th!
BUT NO HYPNO-DISC!

Placements for the new series
Hypnodisc was carnage incarnate. Was there ever another robot with destructive capabilities that could match up?
It seems like nobody really had any notice for the new series so I think we'll see some familiar faces back next year, assuming we get more than one.

Hypnodisc and Razer were the two most destructive, probably. Hypnodisc would just tear things apart unless they had really solid armour, and Razer's claw just raped anything it could get a grip on. They're undoubtedly the GOATs.
Chaos 2 a shit.

You just say that because of Gender Ginger.

Really it was just that a speedy flipbot who almost never lost was boring, but I can admire how solid it was. Won me over when they started flipping people out of the arena as well.
>>71973092
Razer was pretty destructive but Hypnodisc literally shredded the opposition.
Does anyone remember the one that was literally just a papier mache and chicken wire ball with a radio controlled car inside?

>Boring
Fair. But latter seasons really did get dull, I swear BBC forced Hypnodisc to turn down their RPM after its debut.
>>71973190
Psycho Sprout?
Didn't it go backward in the qualifier?
Stand back, GOAT coming through.
>>71973226
All I can remember is how half arsed and crap it was.
>>71973199
Hypno-disc actually got a lot better after it's debut. I think there was behind the scenes agreements on whether teams would allow Hypno-disc to go to town on their robot after it was immobilized. Which is why could get shit like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_J8oO5UrS8
>>71973271
Yeah, but it was so funny. I kinda miss amateur hour. If only for how much they got wrecked.

I lost interest when they upped the stage hazards by a factor of 10 and introduced multi-robot fights.
I just wanted to see cool one-on-one battles and it was frustrating to see a promising fight get cheap-shot by some spinning blade or pitfall (or third robot coming out of nowhere)
Additionally, the camera crew couldn't handle all the action which made for some very confusing television.

>Every episode is a Diotoir is on fire episode.
>>71973339
I'm cautiously optimistic now.
Hoping for more 1v1 like you.
>It's a Razer destroys Matilda for shits and giggles episode
Hypnodisc was more fun to watch, no doubt, but Razer was completely OP.
>>71973367
They covered the fur in lighter fluid and strapped a kebab on.
>>71972867
will there be drones?
>>71973498
Highly unlikely, they'd be almost completely useless offensively as well as almost impervious to harm

>robot wars will never take to the air
>>71973566
Might be nice to see Drone battles seperately, like they did briefly for Walkers.
Their was one that looked like a doorstop, really strong flip, it could flip anything on its back it dominated

Matilda is shit tier. She was always getting rekt by competitors. Sir Killalot and Sgt Bash are also worthless together since one has a flamethrower and the other is highly flamable

Glad to see Razer back, but the lack of Chaos 3 (nee 2) is a tragedy.
