BashBots Season 4 Episode 5 - Robo vs. Robo

[@TaleOfTheToaster]

I would once again like to offer my love and support to EL MONTACARGAS, vamos!!!

[@TaleOfTheToaster]

lmao fair play to the lads on their accidental pre-fight interview, I remember my intro for EL MONTACARGAS being my favourite of the season as it was some off the cuff ramble about Spain, but I can't deny authentic MONTACONTENT

[@hobodrew4498]

EL MONTACARGAS lives on in the hearts of the people

[@imnotoriginal8980]

Goldeneye has schrödinger's wedge; it is both lower than everything and not, and it is only determined when it makes contact with another wedge.

[@HazukiTheWitchy]

Finally Amethyst on TV now

[@TheRoboteer]

Spoilers!!! . . . . Well, what can I say. So close yet so far. Obviously being drawn against the reigning champion is enough to make anyone nervous, but I pledged to give it as good of a go as I could, and I came within spitting distance of the win. Unfortunately though it wasn't quite to be as I couldn't give it that last nudge needed to get him fully over the wall. As Robo said in the pre-fight interviews that's one of the curses of being a front hinge as I just couldn't get the leverage to get him out. After that point it was just a moment of utter brilliance from Robo to juggle me like that. I don't think a lot of viewers appreciate how hard it is to keep flipping an opponent like Robo did to me without making a slip up and letting them get away, but he executed it perfectly, and like all good flippers, Mars doesn't need a second invitation to get the win. No shame in that loss. Mars is a champion for a reason, but hopefully I can still make the bracket with a strong performance in my next fight!

[@hobodrew4498]

no shame in losing a close fight to tranquilizer EL MONTACARGAS will return ✊✊✊

Great episode as always, congrats to the teams that secured top 16 spots, commiserations to those that likely can't make it now.

[@teamcoolspeedbot4357]

Welp sorry folks. That's Cyberstorm's run cut very short. For the first time failing to reach the top 16 in four seasons. Sadly this season has been a disaster. I had submitted 3 robots for this Cyberstorm 1, a Cyberstorm 2 (yes that's right I had built a new Cyberstorm) and a replica of my real-life Featherweight CSB 2.1. CSB 2.1 was rejected as, and I quote "The quota for this type of robot has been reached". Cyberstorm 2 was accepted but due to a delay getting the drive sorted I was forced to use Cyberstorm which was the entry Croga (show creator) prefered I use. The first fight with Catch V4 was straight forward the better wedge won. Tonight's fight all be it highlighted was a bit of a staked one with Huge being the main threat. Now the main issue I have with this fight is that it seems that my oota (out of the arena) flip on Liberator may have been wrongly credited to Huge by production and possibly the judges. In any case, I lost. And due to scheduling issues and reluctance from some competitors and production, most if not all 0-2 bots had their 3rd and 4th fights called off. So that's Cyberstorm over and out. No idea if I'd enter season 5 or what I'd enter so that's where we are at. Bye

EL MONTACARGAS robbed

[@bennythesnail3914]

According to KZbin, this is actually Rocket league

[@kbckj]

What a save!

[@chdreturns]

Well its much better than watching that trash game.

[@HazukiTheWitchy]

Im gonna cheer for Sploodle and Amethyst to win the whole Tournament

[@corvid-1950]

Slightly spoiled fruit . . . . . That sudden spur from Mars was incredible, it was really impressive

[@TheRoboteer]

Having been on the receiving end of it, it was brilliantly executed. Juggles like that require so much precision and are so hard to pull off.

[@scottbennitt3528]

In that rumble between Tracker, ETA and Ace 5, my pick was Tracker, but I don't know what happened there, hopefully they'll return next year.

[@botbuster8841]

i like the cartoony run dominus did in the intro :kek:

[@Frosty_tha_Snowman]

Someone needs to make a full body drum spinner like Axe Backwards for Bashbots - but make it actually look cool and work. I'm thinking a big steel colored drum with a black balance "legs" and wheels, also not exposed wheels, but rather, ones with covers around them like what Rotator has. As for the drum, I think either an octagonal, hexagonal, or pentagonal shape would look really cool, as for the teeth, there's a lot of options, but I think that having varying configurations would be cool. Sort of how Minotaur has different drums, if you could configure the teeth to be spaced out across the entire drum however you want to for your opponent. As in, you can put 2 sets of teeth on opposite sides, or you can line every side with teeth, or you could put a flat counterbalance tooth on one side and then put teeth on the opposite side of that, its hard to describe and its not that important to the overall concept, whatever someone decides to put for teeth on a full body drum will work as long as it's done right.

So Sparks vs Loki confirmed?

[@killdozer7792]

@@Living_Murphys_Law I wouldn't be surprised.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

@@killdozer7792 They stated bots could only fight with the same record, so unless there are robots without fights we are guaranteed to have it.

[@Jonnyonthespot123]

Tranquillizers weapon didn't fall off because it wasn't attached properly, Gumdrops hit the screws and bounced into Tranquillizers weapon at an odd angle breaking it off! You can go back and watch the fight from last week! Otherwise another fantastic episode. Keep up the good work!

[@TheRoboteer]

There was very much a gmod reason behind Tranquilizer's weapon falling off in the Gumdrops fight, and saying Booce forgot to attach it properly is the closest real-life equivalent that keeps with the theme of the show.

are you ok

Dude Goldeneye just got Ghost Raptor'd

[@professionalidiot2767]

Not really related to the episode, but is there a way to ‘make’ a robot for this? If so, I might give it a go, because it sounds pretty damn fun NGL.

[@TheRoboteer]

The robots are all user-created in Garry's mod, so you can make your own yeah. The Garry's Wars discord server has tutorials and resources to help you get started.

Recap of today: - - - - - - - So this season didn't really go as planned ^^` The titanium wedge we used against Sparks was fastened on pretty well but in the inevitable turn of events we weren't prepared for the sheer power behind the Season 1 Champ's blade, especially with the new 'chipper' he'd setup. He helped us out back in the pits to get ready for our next match, but I'd noticed some of the frontal damage to our front wheel motors jetted electricity back into the ESCs, and caused a little bit of a short, hence why it didn't really seem as responsive post-match. A few of you may have noticed this season other teams sponsored by yours truly. I took the time this year to CNC some custom parts for a few teams such as: Amethyst's Blade & name engraving Tracker's side panels The entirety of Slapshot's necessary components alongside many other stock parts found around various builds this year. I'd also taught Wither of Wishbone how to get his CNC working and make parts for others. You can spot his works on Tektronic's hammer, alongside the pre-season's Gravitational Collapse, being the shell. Sooooo, here we arrive, the rumble I'd dreaded to happen. I had one spare anti-HS wedge remaining, and I saw in the standings that I was due to fight Starfire and Slapshot, two very different robots. I knew my wedgelets wouldn't hold up to the horizontal undercutter as id attached the big wedge and prepped up for the fight. Big issue, I only had a single receiver remaining, forgetting to pack the rest on the way here from Canada! Little did I know Slapshot had the better ground game, thus flipping me all over the place. a few digs from Starfire cut my backside open, and that last hit it got me with ended up cutting the receiver wires to the front wheels again, and unfortunately, those wires were still live. Thus post match, the receiver was dead, and I'd no choice but to pull out of the tournament. Seeing that I was already 0-2, it's for the best as I was only due for one last fight anyhow. TLDR: Twinzer may be out of this season, but you can bet I'm working hard on the new one for next year, and improving what faults it struggled with this time around. The *somehow* fan fave double spinspin will return in Season 5 :) hopefully.

[@teamgetwreckedcombatrobots776]

Really sad to hear Twinzer is out of the competition. It was such a unique and creative robot that I would’ve loved to see more of. I’m sure you’ll have a more successful season next time!

[@ThatBuilderBoi]

Good luck on the Spanish lessons

[@rachelchristensen5825]

whos repslating twinzer

[@dualforcerobotics]

youll have to find out later on I think. i may be outta this season, but a brand new upgrade will be comin next time :)

[@VoltageTripwire]

Someone get Robobowler a new pair of skivvies.

[@a.9.u.fnoobgamer484]

At least they have a purple square instead on a green one

[@Roboxwars]

I feel the judges are becoming a little biassed, el montacargas was winning that one for example and tranquiliser did one little combo. Thats it

[@KimFareseed]

Okay, why does KZbin keep labeling this as Rocket League?
