Battlebots Face-Off's MOST DESTRUCTIVE WEEK YET!

[@calebrobotart]

The best part about Blacksmith is that it just does not die and Al Kindle always comes back for more. If the Orbitron team does start the robot uprising and end all life on the planet there will still be Al Kindle and Blacksmith standing amongst the rubble.

[@tigerrocks503chase8]

That sneak peak of Tombstone and Valkyrie going to war is the taste of destruction we are going to see.

[@BotvacProductions469]

"you dont mind charging the batteries if i give it one more?" ray: "i dont care" 🤷‍♂ most chill dude in the sport

[@JMERKIS]

My favorite thing about Blacksmith is the driver. Al's cheerful personality is always so refreshing to watch.

[@ddrjoe]

So amazing and hilarious that everyone has a robot to sacrifice to Tombstone, that's some respect to the robot of Ray Billings.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

It's stuff like that that makes me think Tombstone hasn't fallen off as much as people say it has.

[@Crab_cos]

My favorite thing about blacksmith is how it mananges to always put on a great show while tanking everything that gets thrown at it! Also Al's great and he did the best builder blog episode to date

[@ItHappens129]

My favorite thing about blacksmith is how Al adapted to the modern scene in battlebots and tried something different with blacksmith that he likely didn’t have as much experience with. The change into a hammer-saw was unexpected but very welcome. I really hope to see more of blacksmith in the future.

[@grantcatdone3417]

I know part of skorpios lore is that it was designed to beat tombstone but orbitron is taking it to the next level! It does not want a repeat of counter revolution. I haven't seen anything from the new Valkyrie driver so that'll be interesting. Best part of blacksmith is the flaming Power-Hammer™, it was a pretty unique take on the hammer saw design. 4wd hammersaws have been doing great in lower weight classes.

[@necromancer0616]

The best part about Blacksmith is Big Al... 🍺 Cheers mate!

[@bami2]

Orbitron driven by AI, Blacksmith driven by Al Coincidence? I think not.

[@truckergeek6019]

I am a hobbyist Blacksmith, so I love there is a blacksmith in BattleBots. I love the flaming hammer. Since I can't have a Skorpios HexBug, it would be awesome to have Blacksmith, but no flaming hammer. I will keep it out of the workshop so Arachnophobia's flamethrwoer does not melt it down.

[@captbadass7971]

In the immortal words of Tank Tolman "HAMMER!!!"

[@SkorpiosBattlebot]

Congratulations! You're the winner of the Blacksmith hexbug! Please contact us at [e-mail] to claim the hexbug!

[@BooMannFoo]

The best thing about Blacksmith is they always put on a memorable show. Each match is such a blast to watch, win or lose.

[@StevenStyczinski-sy8cj]

What I’ve always loved about combat robots is the brain power and money and especially the time devoted to building something we totally intend on destroying. I mean you don’t build a super detailed model of the Bismarck and NOT sink it! The only difference between the children and the adults is the time money effort and joy of destroying their toys.😅 man that was fun!

[@BotvacProductions469]

"so al, what do you think of the way ive laid the batteries out inside tombstone?" "no" ray: *starts wheezing of laughter*

[@BotvacProductions469]

theyve all won the most destructive bot award for a reason

[@cm0786]

The best parts of Blacksmith, is all of it. Its a durable brick that always goes the distance. Flames are always welcome in this sport! And how can you not love Al Kindle!

[@SpareTimeBowler]

Best part of blacksmith is hammer go boom 💥 🔨

[@EthanTown-ng6cp]

My favourite thing about blacksmith: JUST FIRE!!! 😈🔥🔨

[@mikeschmidt5115]

Awesome video 😊

[@samgrange4263]

Having watched blacksmith versus minotaur many years ago, I have always and will always have a love for blacksmith and Al kindle! Their ability to keep going regardless of many punches to the face is unmatched

[@thenes6839]

Best Thing on Blacksmith: The Flaming Hammer

[@FaithfulMC]

Valkyrie old captain back? 😮 That’s good

[@roombawars6434]

I could probably type millions of things here -The thing i love about blacksmith is al Kindle, and how he recorded this whole episode. -I also love his attitude and demeanor, always seeming grumpy. -I seriously LOVE the hammer with flamethrower duo (now powersaw + flamethrower) -We NEED a secrets of blacksmith episode aswell #BlacksmithForS8

[@Bot_Boys213]

This was an incredible video, and I want that hexbug so badly, but I have already won a signed hexbug from this channel and I want other people to get a chance at one but if I had to say my favorite part of blacksmith it probably has to be the captain Al I mean he made such a good video for the builder blog this week!

[@wizardbuilds207]

This looks to be a very exciting tournament. I enjoy the show Blacksmith always puts on. The fire hammer combo always looks epic!

[@mikedski9698]

Tombstone The King Of Kinetic Energy Vs. Flying Valkyrie On BATTLEBOTS FACEOFFS.

[@so_qp]

I like how Blacksmith's chasis look really similiar to original Vlad the Impaler, plus giving Hammersaw or Flaming hammer on top of it makes this bot even cooler.

[@TimSmith-mi1sx]

What I like about Blacksmith is the simplicity of the concept. With enough heat and hammering, the most terrible of machines can be reduced to junk.

[@wiresmith2398]

I prefer the previous Valkyrie Aesthetic, but that is still a REALLY good lookin' robot!

[@JohnWick-zl5oc]

The Axe. it's iconic.

[@bbell]

The best part about Blacksmith is it's always an entertaining fight even though it can't dish out the huge hits

[@madpsycho6]

Best thing about Blacksmith is Al Kindle and his can't be arsed attitude.

[@samaubut9963]

I like that Blacksmith is sponsored by Nuclear Blast. Its funny to see two seemingly unrelated things be linked together (and I enjoy some bands that use Nuclear Blast so even better)

[@jessebrockmann8373]

The best part of Blacksmith is Al Kindle and his attitude! :)

[@BotvacProductions469]

"lets see how much value it has after we get ray billings to sign it" id give anything to have that! 🤩

[@johnnyutah1983]

I can’t figure out how to follow this new season on BattleBots on KZbin…We have the first episode I think but when does episode 2 start?

[@natemoren7780]

The best part about blacksmith is its Hammer looks like a spiky meat mallet on fire! 🥩 🔨 🔥

[@vincentbriamonte7884]

Jersey never gives up!!!!!

[@MullinPerformance]

Having OT taking on BS is genius. One being the most complex build and the other being KISS.

[@FaithfulMC]

Orbitron is pushing the sport forward❤

[@ioncannonmusic]

the blacksmith hammersaw was so damned cool. shame they didnt try it for longer.

[@ToastGhost]

Favourite part about Blacksmith has to the team's longevity in the sport, that can't be easy or cheap!

[@briansandahl6761]

My favorite part about blacksmith is if they had extended matches it would probably always come out victorious. It never seems to actually lose, only loses to judges decisions. The flaming hammer! Unfortunately the hammer only hits once with the force of 1 biteforce hit, biteforce hitting you 100 times? 1000? (Idk I can't do the math) In that same time.

[@Benson-x4e]

Im just going to start off by saying that blacksmith was one of the first Battlebots I have ever seen and every time I see blacksmith I just think of the first time I saw it and it brings me a lot of joy. I do wish blacksmith was there though.

[@michaelcraig7766]

2 words: Heavy Metal 🤟🤟🤟

[@Geovanni-xp2nm]

The best thing about black Smith is that it can take a beating from minotaur and maybe that zak can do you a great impression of al.

[@JamesBaillie-c6q]

I actually thought you where bald for real for a second

[@ruvimsemenyuk8224]

They should call the purple blade “thanos”

[@isaiahibayan]

For me, the best part of Blacksmith has to be the armor. You gotta have an anvil before you start pounding the hammer!

[@jonathanf2392]

This is truly the group of death

[@FaithfulMC]

Best part about Al is the Blacksmith..wait

[@colanitower]

The bald headed reporter is a natural talent. A man of many words. "No" "No" "No" "Nah ... Do it again"

[@stonefish98]

Blacksmith vs Bloodsport, Champions Ep4. Blacksmith had that match in the bag, then fired their weapon 100msec too early, and threw it all away. If they won, they'd have faced Skorpios, and that's truly anyone's match. So, a tenth of a second later and they've got a 50/50 chance of becoming one of the top eight. Dunno why everyone treats it like a bit of a joke.

[@BotvacProductions469]

tombclone is half the weight (and power) of the real tombstone. good luck team orbitron, youre gonna need it

[@BotvacProductions469]

to me, blacksmith in itsself is a concept which i beliove has a lot of potential that hasnt been released.

[@starry53]

Good to see Al Kindle from Blacksmith coming to see the BATTLEBOTS FACEOFFS pretending to be someone else (Which is NOT Zach wearing the bald hat and Blacksmith merch jersey disguise).

[@ruvimsemenyuk8224]

Rotting for tombstone 👌

[@thisladsamystery]

AI sees the purple blade on Valkyrie or the camera on Tombstone: AI: "This wasn't in my training...Ima outa here!" Also, Zach why did you show them Terminator? Now you gave them hope that they can dominate humanity one day...

[@BellyLover06]

Tombstone is taking hits and coming back vs Valkyrie. Wonder if this is where the tire damage shots Ray posted comes from?

[@zebrastripedyt6050]

the best part about blacksmith is that it is black and a smith

[@mattsharkey311]

Here’s my opinion on Orbitron a good design robot that works well, but they’re adding so much technology so quickly I don’t think it is going to be reliable and they would be better off to manually control it with the robot They already have where it could be a contender.

[@meganyeti8747]

6:50 just waits until Daniel hear that... (did I put the "s" in the right words? I struggle so much with that lol)

[@BotvacProductions469]

TOMBSTONE USED THE REd AND BLACK BLADE FOR THE 2ND TIME AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sketchingdetails]

But were you hiding Blacksmith in that mysterious crate?

[@sanjumin]

The best thing about Black Smith is that he is a Black Smith!!

[@罗俣宸]

I don‘t love Blacksmith but Al Kindle is adorable

[@iamdb1990]

the best thing about Blacksmith is that it sucks... Al's words, not mine, but I'm saying them anyway

[@Gatrests14]

Not sure but a prediction: I think Tombstones gonna lose the fight. At 0:10 in just a few seconds you can see a few bits and pieces bouncing on the top right corner of the screen and I think that is the bits of the tooth from Tombstones blade.

[@bami2]

5:24 hypersock?

[@PyroBear1776]

I swear to the screws if tombsotne does not win a single match. Triggered. Ray just saying for smart guys, we’re kinda dumb. 😂

[@wiresmith2398]

Oh lordy, Al has to be giggling like a schoolgirl right now.

[@BartolomeB-k7f]

Hey can you make miny bot for me named higth wing with a under cutter

[@Isle0fRed]

Orbitron really messed up by not calling their ai module; Ai Kindle

[@brenmarshall643]

the best thing about blacksmith is no

[@forceofwillgaming8475]

Blacksmith/Al Kindle Memes

[@BotvacProductions469]

"our first fight is tombstone so first im gonna crap my pants" HAD ME ROLLING ON THE FLOOR GASPING FOR BREATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
