How This Bot Gained Legendary Status | Road To Victory | BATTLEBOTS

[@Clit_Yeastwood]

Tombstones driver shouting "you want some more??" Is everything, the sheer spectacle, showmanship and destruction. This is why Tombstone is one the the all time crowd favourites, he just wants everyone to have fun, what a legend 🤘🏻

[@Bearcub117]

Was stupidly happy to see beta, as someone who grew up on robot wars it's always nice to see robot wars veterans in this. (Beta was formally terrahurts)

[@greensauce2350]

I really love beta as it is a hammerbot that actually does some damage, since most hammers are extremely ineffective but the problem is, is that Betas driver never uses the hammer only doing so when it is too late I think the fight between Beta and Overhaul has more uses of the hammer than the entirety of some seasons that beta was in

[@IKenexPSN]

I grew up on robot wars. Great to see him still going and enjoying it at a later age 👍🏻

[@herrron1131]

However, I will say that Tombstone is his own enemy. His abilities can be turned against him, and Beta has recognised this.

[@Warmness]

Yes but it would take until Victor and Rotator for people to finally understand it.

[@CKKIDSTVOFFICIAL]

Yeah cuz in one of the fights when tombstone hit the opponent at the last second of the fight tombstones system inside burst out

[@randomsnow6510]

Please stop pretending robot combat exists in a vacuum, this stuff has been in tutorials dating back to the early 2000s

[@Starkiller5121]

John Reid is a veteran of robot wars, he knows the most effective strategy against spinners is jam them up right from the get go. That fight was extraordinary. Probably one of the best tombstone fights. Tombstone has the power, but John has as much experience as Ray does and knows the strategys. It's a shame that that was the peak of Betas performance.

[@jonathanharwood1255]

Yeah, I quite like Beta to be honest. Amongst all the top tier bots, all he has is a hammer. Has he done well lately?

[@V0Rtexty]

​@@jonathanharwood1255 He's done very well recently, his biggest issue is that it doesn't really have a good answer to verts

[@_TheHand]

This is so true✔️👍

[@stelp7617]

from 13:59 just kept watching it over and over again. Bombshell getting torn apart like that was brutal, and Ray just laughing as parts of Bombshell go flying all over the arena and landing right next to him.

[@DJLucas-xv7oe]

It was awesome. And it's alot better than Riptide's way of late hits.

Tombstone: modest Excuse me brain isn’t braining

[@frasermackay]

[@jonathanmahon2035]

If you watch his own KZbin channel then you'll see he really is just a loveable nerd. Seems like a really nice guy that loves building bots

[@catseye2260]

Excuse me? At what point was Tombstone ever considered Modest?!

[@m598lmr]

Modestly destructive.

[@agustinval1508]

Tombstone is modest in the same way that deep six is subtle

[@myvi8526]

The driver is modest, always having fun in the battle even when he loses. We can see he loves battle bots. This video shows only these victories however, see some other video when he lost and my point was proven

[@watermelon5521]

As someone who doesn't know anything about battlebots, it seems pretty simple to me

[@irfanalakbar]

Ahaha.. 😁 You got the point.. Tombstone is totally far away from modest.. He was cruel, cold-blooded, and brutal.. He was literally a grim reaper

[@80sMeavyHetal]

Tombstone was a monster. A solid base, spinning blade and good driving is just the best.

[@The_Curious_Cat]

[@PAWaviation15]

Tombstone's fight with Escape Velocity led me to love this awesome bot and his passionate creators.

[@jayduffy5532]

I think that when ray and tombstone competed they were the most dangerous battlebot in the game I bet when tombstone retired the entirety of of the battlebot world was both saddened but also VERY grateful and heaves a sigh of relief they didn't have to worry anymore thst their bots where going to be scrapped

[@STRIDER_503]

You still have to worry about Minotaur and the cocky team members that pilot Riptide, and maybe Copperhead.

[@bensargeant8150]

Fotunately Tombstone isn't retired yet, Ray just had to take a year out for medical reasons. Since then though he's fought with the middleweight version, The Mortician, and a heavyweight vert, Stink Eye. I don't think there's much question that if we get another season of Battlebots, Tombstone will be there.

[@davidtube79]

Bite Force may have won more and lost less, but Tombstone is without a doubt, alot more entertaining!

[@richardbool4232]

That last fight was how all the fights should end total destruction of your enemy.🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@grousetheghoul2754]

Tombstone is the best. I'd love to see Tombstone go up against Carbide from the old Robot wars. That would be one hellacious battle. Dave from Carbide is with Cobalt now. I wonder if they could make it happen.

[@jisssim]

The only thing that tombstone has going for itself is that mega spinning blade… which of course does hella damage, but its wheels are totally exposed… also the power of its rotating blade creates so much rotational force that once it’s slightly out of balance it will bounce all over the place like a ping pong ball… In my opinion, tombstone has huge stability issues, and very vulnerable maneuverability. Once he looses just wheel, he’s pretty much a sitting duck…

[@S1E2SportQuattro]

Thats part of the charm imo

[@RBXDuy]

I'd like to think of Tombstone as a boss fight, very strong but has a very fatal weakness that players can strategize around to exploit (like Beta using Tomb's sawblade against itself) which is why it's very fun to watch because of how unexpected some fights can be

[@JoshSweetvale]

Tombstone is functionally a Light bot with that giant heavy spinner. He hits monstrously hard, but is frail as glass.

[@SethiozProject]

i want to see "tombstone" with protected shuffler-legs, which means weight bonus, while keeping the same weapon. it would be stable and be able to dish out even harder hits due extra weight and while doing so, it would remain much more stable. i doubt Ray comes back with another build tho, but maybe someone will. Carbide was almost a perfect bot, if only it had shufflers instead of wheels, it could have been much heavier.

bonus only is given for true walkers now.

How was beta not the winner there...

[@TheGalantHamburger]

Because Tombstone was perfectly functional, Beta suffered major structural damage and didn’t use its main weapon

[@Aztwecas]

​@@TheGalantHamburgereh they won because of this season's poor judging rules that based essentially everything on how you use your primary weapon. Beta dominated the fight in terms of control, aggression, and damage, yet because of the rules Tombstone's one hit meant they won.

[@spideysquestionablyusedcha5069]

​@@Aztwecas Agreed. I dont like the philosophy that bad weapons should be able to score as well as good weapons, but if it's the case, Beta did far more by constantly coralling Tombstone and just taking armor shots with minimal damage.
