Is there any robot in vidya that could defeat Razer?
Chaos 2Was not nearly as cool and I'm still annoyed that it won all the time
Necrons
>When the meta got flooded by flipping bots
Hypnodisc
>>336786368
Fucking tryhard robots ruined Robot Wars.
Remember when Razer fucked up Matilda then she came out at the end of the show with bandages and started twirling? Where does the time go.
Now I'm sad.
>>336786529
it made the job done
Yeah, those Striders from Half Life 2
They're pretty big and have a big laser attack
Honestly a lot of robots could beat that tiny piece of junk in your pic
How about video game robots that COULDNT beat Razer?
Chibi-Robo?
>>336786750
Have you got that george pepe?
Pretty much all of them. Nowadays robot battles are just shovel shit that try to flip the fuck out of each other.

It's one thing to cheat, but doing it so blatantly is another fucking dimension of shittery

woooow
such fun
>>336786709

>>336787357
They're the better bot though, the judges decided and everything. They won legitimately in the rules.

I was just talking about robot wars with my younger brother a week ago. We really miss this show and would like to have it come on again, even if it's just re-runs in order.
Razer was always my main bot when they first appeared, looked so awesome. My brother really loved Shunt

I'm going to make a robot wars game with proper damage and deformation.
>>336786937
other day someone posted some webms and parts of bots were being stripped off the bot and shot at the windows and casters.
also, new season for fucking real? i haven't seen any BattleBots since i was a teen.
>>336788087
The judges made their decision, they won. Razor should have prepared better. Why are you more qualified than the judges?
>>336786368
Hypno Disc, Typhoon 2, Supernova.
Basically, all the spinners. Razer was lucky that they never really faced one aside from Tornado's frame. They would've gotten shitstomped.
>>336788169

The real one was even worse. How the fuck were the House Bots not allowed to free Supernova? They've done it plenty of times before.

On a side note one of my lecturers at the moment used to be on robot wars and just went on battlebots for the new season. Think his robot was called bulldog this time.

Robot Wars becomes a lot less awesome once you remove the "Super" part.
>>336788738
Pretty much. Storm 2's team can bitch about how they lost to Typhoon all they want, but when they're on the other end, they shut the fuck up. Fucking hypocrites.
>>336788395
I know that feel, bro.
Channel Five must pay for their crimes against roboteering.
>>336787051

Flipbots are fucking lame. At least someone like T-Minus from Battlebots was fun cause he usually flipped himself over as well.
>>336789021
Yeah I know but a man can dream

Robot Wars was raped by Channel Five with the active weapon policy banning Stinger from the championship. They are now owned by Viacom, who tarnished Robot Wars in the USA with Pricklodeon Robot Wars.
If Superman existed, I'd wouldn't be surprised that he destroy the Viacom Headquarters.
>>336787287
why were Americans so bad at this
>>336788859
Just look at him dude. Its obviously some low life scum
Rate my robot /v/
>>336789169
That was only ever really useful on ONE robot. Only the jaws on the front were useful and even then they were rarely used.
Also, who else remembers when Bash took on the RefBot?
>>336788965
Sir Killalot, although that may be because I owned a remote-control replica of it as a child.
>>336789379
I do.
>Any episode where a flipper ends up fighting a cheeky cunt with wheels on both sides
Always the best
>>336789192
What about Growler and Cassius Chrome.
Not that I blame you for leaving out the latter.
>>336789375
what's his name?
Razer was my favourite design and 'damage' dealer.
However, my heart was with Hypodisc.
Chaos 2 had that woman that looked like a man, or was it a man that looked like a woman. Chaos 2 was only beaten if you were fast enough to avoid the flipper and make them waste the gas, or if cut the line. Even SRM didn't help.
Tornado was also pretty neat. Pussycat too. Stinger was a cool idea but I didn't like it.
>always gets set on fire
>creators roll with it, make his casing fire resistant and spray his fur with fire accelerators just for show
that team was pretty bro, shame customs screwed them over a few times
>>336789568
Who knows?
>>336789451
Chaos 2 and Wheely Big Cheese solved this by flipping them outside of the arena with one good flip. Chaos 2 was also stupidly fast and could self right (WBC was never able to be flipped). WBC was immune to all flippers bar Chaos 2 I believe, which was able to flip it and I think it got stuck on the arena edge when they fought.
>>336789543
Me and my housemates never agreed on one in the end, think we were leaning towards 'pretty in pink'
>>336788539
Enjoy your ban.
>>336789603
Yeah they were cool. I like Gemini as well simply for the show of a robot being loop holed through. Was well designed and was amazing to watch, shame it wasn't very good.
>>336788395
Typhoon 2 won it fair and square. They didn't get any help from the producers or cheat.
>>336788158
oh man a fully physics enabled robot wars style game would be god damn awesome
>>336788965
I want to be molested by Sir Killalots spear while Matilda makes fun of my dick as she rubs it with her horns.Sgt Bash watching from behind the cornerShunt literally who?
>>336788965
>he doesn't rank sir killalot
>>336789874
Nah.
>>336790203

Who /panicattack/ here?
>>336790534

>>336790206
Care to explain?
I just want to say that Ziggo is the best battlebot
There, that was easy.
Can we all go home now?
>>336789874
>implying that Scots won Robot Wars.
They Should be killed on the spot.
XANA will beat Razer.
Hypnodisc was my favourite one
>>336790737
Typhoon was allowed to spin up prior to Activate being called on the restart. This is against the rules. Furthermore, the judges apologized to Storm 2 for making the wrong call and just accepting that the network told them Typhoon suffered no damage. Why would they do that if there was no foul play? Also, the network has been trying to fuck over Storm 2 for multiple matches now (oh no what a surprise the pit "didn't activate" for Tornado). There was no reason they wouldn't try it again in the finals, if not even harder than before.
>>336790801
Into the trash it goes.
>>336787765
>grand final
>subtitles: final
kek
>>336786709
That was the fucking best. They even had a screen with RIP MATILDA and the years that the show had ran. Then Craig Charles goes
>And now, she has passed on
>...OR IS SHE?
And then Matilda comes back in bandages and the audience roars. That was the SHIT.
>>336790976
We should punish Channel 5 by hijacking their hashtags.
My faves
1. Hypnodisc
2. Razer
3. Wheely Big Cheese
>>336790976
I think that Typhoon got an official warning for spinning up and the damage thing just one minor chain missing. Wouldn't have made a difference if the judges knew.
>Its a Diotoir is set on fire episode
>>336787051
STILL MADMostly at the judges for making such a shit call when Tornado literally couldn't move at the endAlso any of you niggas play Arenas of Destruction or Extreme Destruction on PC? Shit was cash.
>Tfw life will never be as simple as it was in the late 90's/early 00's
>Tfw you will never be young again
>>336791342
They didn't. All of the robots Typhoon faced have flippers. Maybe the producers hated them because of a certain Grand Final?
>chaos2 wins lol
I'm still salty after all these years.
>>336791467
What Grand Final?
>>336787405
>Hypno Disc
My nig nog gollywog, give a dog a bone
>>336791668
Third Wars. Where Hypno-Disc lost to a flipper.
>>336791428
>early 00s now included in nostalgia circlejerk threads
Time flies
>>336791759
Even if it never actually won, Hypno-Disc was a pretty sweet robot. It makes me happy that so many people like him.
>yfw Hypno-Disc went up against some robot with fiberglass armour and fucking tore it off piece by piece
>>336791342
>Wouldn't have made a difference if the judges knew.
It would have. Typhoon won on damage by virtue of having "sustained no damage" versus Storm 2 having lost an insignificant side panel. Any sort of damage could have easily tipped the scales, especially if it actually had an impact on the robot's ability to do anything.
>>336788965
Sgt. Bash and Sir Killalot were good, but I always had a soft spot for shitty matilda, cause she looked like a piggy
>TFW she got fucked up in a match, and they wheeled her out in bandages
Which was that robot who actually destroyed one of the guardians and made the huge robot with the flamethrower set itself on fire after breaking its fuel tank?
>>336789179
>Can actually operate if flipped
So few machines did this, which I find dumb as hell
>>336791902
Ah yes, that. HD was barely even moving and that disk that at a fraction of its power. They could have won if they were at full power and taken the prize they definitely deserved over a fucking boring flipper bot that turned a Robot Wars into "Watch Chaos 2 Win Without Any Fucking Effort".
>>336791998
MINOR chain that didn't affect them at all. Storm's front part may also be minor, but it was a very big piece.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M4je9wtDKs
>people complaining matchup was unfair
>Razer always got advantage in robot wars against its opponents.
You know I always wondered if you could use a robot with a sizeably powerful motor and then slapped on a heap of clay on the side as some sort of pseudo kinetic armour and then you rammed the fuck out of the other bot.
>>336793441
>sizeably powerful motor
>heap of clay
They had a weight limit, pretty sure.
You need something truly enormous to hit through metal with a blunt object
>>336786368
White Glint could have a slight chance.

This better be bullshit. Not having one of the original 4 is a fuck up.
>>336790993
Swedish subtitles, and we don't have a "Grand Final" equivalent- we just use "Final"- though usually in a "THE Final" kinda way.
The english Grand Final has caught on in double elimination tournaments at esports events, because young swedes are obsessed with making everything sound american, adopting american stuff while simultaneously hating the USA's guts.

He's decent in a lot of things and does great jokes, but come on now... an irishman doing fast play by play commentary?

To be honest, Craig was only the host, the actual commentators were different guys
GOAT game
>>336799021
Is the original commentator still alive? I know he went on to commentate on football after Robot Wars, but IIRC he looked pretty old.
>>336799526
Awww shit, I just looked it up and he's coming back for the new series.
