Hexbug Battlebots Tournament 4: The Qualifiers

[@KhaoticRobotics]

Hope you all enjoyed! If case you were curious here’s the rundown of the judges decisions today. Blacksmith 6-5 Witch Doctor Damage: 3-2 blacksmith. The main thing that gave blacksmith an edge was the fact that it broke the Witch Doctor spinner. The spinner literally split in two. Aggression: 2-1 Blacksmith. Close but Blacksmith had a working weapon the full match which gave it the edge here since using the primary weapon consistently is pretty big for this and WD didn’t have a weapon for 2/3 of the match. Control: 2-1 WD. Witch Doctor got in some nice pins more often than Blacksmith did. Sawblaze 6-5 Bronco Damage: 3-2 Sawblaze. This fight didn’t really have much in terms of damage. But Sawblaze got the slight edge because it used the pulverizer and the screws. Aggression: 2-1 Bronco. Hard to argue against this. Bronco was flipping like crazy. Sawblaze still gets a point though because they were using their weapon a bit too. Control: 2-1 Sawblaze. Sawblaze got in most of the pins and used its speed to scoop up Bronco. Agree or disagree? Leave us your thoughts.

Did anyone else notice that the Bite Force vs S1 Witch Doctor fight went almost exactly the same way as their real life season 4 Grand Final match? (In that it was a close fight where Witch Doctor managed to rip off all but one of Bite Force’s wedgelets but ended up losing after getting flipped over). Anyways, this was an entertaining episode and I’m excited for the full tournament!

All the matchs are all rematch,s from some seasons

Love the Classic Battlebots Music that was used back in the Comedy Central Seasons.

[@huntzzio]

Yay! Excited for the rest of the tournament

Let the Hexbug Bot Battle Begin!

[@Brae_256]

I honestly don’t know if I agree with the sawblaze vs bronco fight

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Predictions for the bracket (spoilers inside) Duck vs Bronco: One of my favorite fights IRL, hopefully it goes similarly (but with Duck staying inside the arena). Whiplash vs WD 2015: Whiplash only needs one flip, so... Bite Force vs Sawblaze: Should be an iconic fight, but I think Sawblaze's lower GC should win this for them. Rotator vs Blacksmith: Blacksmith's wedge is great at combating spinners, so I think they've got this.

[@NoName-ij7vq]

I know S3 which doctor was damaged but I think it should’ve gotten the original Witchdocter spot if it could be repaired in time just my opinion though

When the Battlebots is Hexbug:

8:08 hex bug made an extremely accurate recreation of witch doctors drum complete with it breaking

[@sar0jam]

pro tip if u use sawblaze, never ever hinge the outside forks on the second hinge, always use the higher up one, u lose a little little bit of ground game but the forks never go out of socket and you always self right in one try

[@kilijshark7667]

SawBlaze’s my fav to win! 😁

[@karnage6technologies988]

i think it will be bronco vs beta tombstone vs blacksmith bite force vs duck and minotaur vs witch doctor

[@SayoRacing97]

That was awesome

[@tubztergaming5700]

Very good!

[@sar0jam]

predecting sawblaze to win it all just cause from all the promos and photos weve gotten it has painted sawblaze as getting destroyed by bronco

[@dddashy]

my predictions are whiplash or blacksmith

[@BellyLover06]

1:03 I didn't think Tombstone could be balanced like that.

[@brady-o-active1167]

Hype(rshock)

[@WTDynamics]

A few questions. 1. What happened to Hexbug Drunken Irishman? 2. Can you put the Ribbot on thingiverse?(I can't wait to make my own S5 Ribbot :) 3. Are you going to bring back Hypershock? Hope Bite Force wins HBT3 :)

[@KhaoticRobotics]

1. It… died. I don’t know what else to say besides that I’m gonna be honest it’s not coming back any time soon 2. I’m still working on a few things with the files. But when I’m done with that I’ll get them posted 3. Probably not, there’s a few other robots I’m planning to make instead.

[@Spencezilla_]

Did you increase the weapon power on s1 witchdoctor and biteforce because it looked like they were hitting a lot harder then usual.

[@ExplosiveRobotics]

I think he did that to all of them

[@Spencezilla_]

@@ExplosiveRobotics oh really, did he just put a bigger motor in them?

[@KhaoticRobotics]

@@Spencezilla_ no I used stronger AAA batteries.

[@Spencezilla_]

@@KhaoticRobotics Oh, that makes more sense lol, could you put a link to them?
