BashBots Season 4 Episode 7 - Creator vs Creation

[@GalacticSpartan]

When Cosmo gets yeeted into the lights: “WE’RE GONNA CHARGE YOU FOR THAT, WE’RE ON A STRICT BUDGET THIS SEASON!”

[@teamgetwreckedcombatrobots776]

19:07 Greatest hit in BashBots history in my opinion.

[@dualforcerobotics]

Builder of Twinzer here, I'm not in this episode :) that is all.

[@themadbritking5543]

Lies, I saw you in a replay.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Nor am I. But aat least you were in this series.

[@Jonnyonthespot123]

Another fantastic episode. Great to see Huge do what it was built to do and I love that Cosmo brings explosives on board to go out in a ball of flame. Fantastic stuff. Tournament bracket next week? Gonna be good!

[@croga9581]

top 16 robots will be shown but the actual seedings and bracket won't be until 9

[@flowerballs_008]

Ngl @croga you should show us the top 4 seeds instead of the whole bracket at the end of ep. 8

[@croga9581]

@@flowerballs_008 the seedings are in groups based on records, so you will know around about who is where but not in which order. For example there will only be 3 robots that are 4-0 at the end so you will know the top 3 seeds but not the order they are in until episode 9

[@thericseascorpion5946]

So happy I got to see Sparks vs Panther rematch

[@KhaoticRobotics]

I’m super happy to see Catch and Loki doing well, probably two of my favorite bots. Rip Firewave, there has been a lot of close decisions this season

[@lionelcopeland7805]

19:06 the best part of bash Bots in its entirety right here

WARNING - MAJOR SPOILERS! SERIOUSLY, DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THIS. - - - - - - - - - - So, one more heat to go before the championship begins. Here's how everyone stands. --3-1-- Catch V4 HUGE --3-0-- Amethyst Gumdrops Mars Polis Sparks Wishbone These guys are all in. The 3-0 gang really don't need to fight another battle, especially this close to the championship. --2-2-- Cosmo Tenderlove --2-1-- Atlas Calcifer Claymore E.T.A. Goldeneye Loki Panther Ryu-Kishin Siren Tranquilizer That last category is what it all comes down to. There's ten robots, fighting for five places. Win, and they're basically guaranteed in. Lose, and they (plus Cosmo and Tenderlove) are fighting for only three "bonus" spaces. I'm honestly predicting the next episode will be these ten robots...but then, my predictions for this episode were rather off, so what do I know?

[@tjgriffiths6856]

Just me who is thinking of an Atlas/Tranquilizer main event for next episode?

[@alexv3375]

(SPOILER) Man, seeing Catch V4 chuck Tenderlove out was so satisfying after the Mulsanne fight! Great that karma finally caught up to it.

[@teamgetwreckedcombatrobots776]

@@drneroli Hey, don’t beat yourself up about it too much. These things happen. Tenderlove still put on an amazing show this season and a 2-2 record with both of those losses being close fights against amazing machines is nothing to be ashamed of. I really do hope to see more of Tenderlove in the future!

[@disabledgrandpagames9315]

@@drneroli hey man both your loses were against great robots you did great

[@alexthehunted]

builder of loki here that fight was fun that is all

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

This may just be the first JD I actually disagree with. I can completely see how [Robot A] won, but [Robot B] should have likely won. Robot A: ETA Robot B: Firewave

[@botbuster8841]

I feel ETA won tbh, as even though it took quite a bit of damage it still got in plenty of flips and chased after firewave to try and prevent it from spinning up

[@Christopher-xu8wh]

Firewave very hard done by there

[@TaleOfTheToaster]

Cosmo put on a good show, but you didn't hear that from me

[@thericseascorpion5946]

It really did but unfortunately it underestimated that infamous spinning blade

[@thericseascorpion5946]

They both did really good there. Congrats to both

[@killdozer7792]

Hey, Toast, here's an idea... - - - - - - - Stop saying with so much confidence that the big heavy spinner is definitely going to win the judges' decision. That's been three times now you've screwed them over! XD

[@TaleOfTheToaster]

@@killdozer7792 that is the thing with all the commentary being recorded before the series airs,

[@thericseascorpion5946]

With my personal opinion I feel like it is flippers taking the big stage. Especially since we have two flippers winning the championship so far and only one horizontal. Yeah the verticals are showing there true force but it may take them just a little bit to take over. Despite this I think it is ok for toaster to have that opinion if they keep ending up wrong then they do.

[@hrishikeshbhat8581]

19:06 NJGW and tale of the toaster: huge has got some hits Huge: proceeds to yeet Cosmo into the light.

[@BagOfSuspiciousWhitePowder]

That hit by HUGE was the biggest ht all season

When will Bashbots Octognal Insects come out?

[@croga9581]

they are fake

[@GetHypedandShocked]

@@croga9581 I know

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Huge went from being tossed to the ceiling by a vert, to tossing a vert into the ceiling. Huh.

[@croga9581]

it tossed itself against rampage, it hit the wheel

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

@@croga9581 Well, true. I guess that means Huge is the best flipper in Bashbots then, launching two bots to the ceiling?

[@croga9581]

@@Living_Murphys_Law quite possibly, it was also incredibly close to taking down the lights the first time, it was just a bit too far away from the middle

[@adamajaiteh4136]

Amazing

[@shiken2224]

I would pay for bash bots hexbugs.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Definitely. Sparks and Mars would be perfect, but Cosmo, Polis, or Amethyst would be great too.

[@raptoid2518]

Yet again Firewave getting screwed out of a win by a flipper that barely did anything.

[@botbuster8841]

ETA got in plenty of flips on both firewave and rampage

[@Dubstepper]

Me when im in a bad JD competition and my opponent is Firewave:

[@s-o-u-p6095]

how the hell did firewave not win that one? the spinner was used to far greater effectiveness than ETA's flipper

[@Johnzobeams]

firewave is robbed again

[@botbuster8841]

not really tbh, i'd say eta had more attacks and rampage did quite a bit as well

[@Bob-ss5zt]

i was this bloody close to killing rampage by pit.... lol

[@Jonnyonthespot123]

On my first viewing absolutely agree with you. I had to go back to watch the fight again to see why the judges made their decision. Firewave took off armour panelling but did not disable either of it's opponents. ETA did many spectacular flips on both it's opponents. The judges all scored weapon effectiveness Firewave 6 ETA 5. Judge 1 and 2 gave aggression and control Firewave 5 and ETA 6/7. That is what won ETA the fight. Firewave hits you and then pinballs away all across the arena. Meanwhile ETA throws you up and then down but doesn't get hurt by that. In the end it was incredibly close but I have to agree with the judges here even if I don't like the result myself. I wanted to see the spinny boy do well but the problem is that both opponents were too well armoured and they only lost armour panels, not weapons or wheels.

[@chickennuggetyt62]

Absolutely. It should be 3-0 rn

[@BellyLover06]

I can see where the judges are coming from. I think it came down to effectiveness of weapon. ETA's was just a bit better.

[@scottbennitt3528]

NJGW and TaleoftheToaster should've made a little singsong when Cosmo shattered the lights.

What is the CAD software that some people use to design their machines for Bashbots?

[@botbuster8841]

blender

[@croga9581]

mostly blender but some use 3dsmax, solidworks and maya

[@killdozer7792]

A quick question, but I'm posting this as SPOILERS because it does relate to one of the judges' decisions here. - - - - - - - - - - What exactly would count towards aggression points for a spinner? Because it seems that's where they keep getting screwed over.

[@croga9581]

aggression relates almost entirely to initiating or attempting to initiate attacks however big spinners by nature have to run away to spin up, thereby actively avoiding initiating attacks and instead letting their opponent do it. The only modification that can be made is do what battlebots do and base aggression on weapon usage but that's literally what effectiveness does already

[@imnotoriginal8980]

@croga idk if they changed this, but I remember that in battlebots it doesn't count against a spinner if they run away to spin up to speed

[@croga9581]

@@imnotoriginal8980 if a spinner is running away to spin up and they are being chased it would be unfair to not give aggression points to the chaser. If the spinner runs away but the other robot doesn't follow them then I agree but that's what we do anyway
