NHRL 2024 January Rd 1, New Bots Tournament Highlights

[@aria8928]

Concepts like a 'nailgun-bot' getting somewhere to fight is why i love warching NHRL events so much

[@jessieroberts3159]

I cant believe the referee can get *turned tf off* and then you just have to deal with it lol

[@KahnSig]

Love the fact Fluffy got turned off by Colossal Avian when they landed on them

[@namAehT]

My only complaint about NHRL is that I have to wait a month or more between events.

[@qwertbochaffer]

Lucky for you they are hosting two events in March!

[@Lurkmaster9000]

I got here at the perfect time!

[@kitkatbreaker1270]

Yeah

[@GARBO96]

My complaint is they decided to start up about a year after I left the area they're literally one town over from my hometown😭😭😭

[@adam_bomb2103]

That and how at the end of every event there is 30 min between fights

[@StephenOwen]

Excellent production! One idea would be could you include a description or chyron of which pilot is controlling which bot? Sometimes the camera lingers on pilot for a while but I don’t know which bot they control till after the fight Another idea might be a pre fight card to show the pilot with their bot right before the fight starts Thanks I love this

[@NotDrDre]

Great stuff. I’m looking forward the next event on March 2nd!

[@ALloydRH]

More highlight videos like this in the future please!

[@nikro8275]

this is the craziest shit ive seen in a while and im all here for it

[@ratheonhudson3311]

Very interesting question about a cluster bot being out if half your bot is disabled. But in Vapor Trail's case "half your bot is removed" but your single bot can still move

[@ratheonhudson3311]

VT be like: "I still got this! Ow! I still got this! Have faith in me, coach."

[@jefism]

33 1/3

[@Cold_soup._.]

Tomb stone- I mean twisted sister literally had to take off all 4 of witch doctor- I mean vaporwave's wheels bro

[@gokibros4451]

this is the first time I've ever seen anything like this. I'm not entirely sure what I just watched but wow. I don't think I'll ever get into this as a competitor but I admire the pure amount of nerd/geek that went into every single robot. The culture and sportsmanship. The lingo was easy to understand. This seems like a great hobby for anyone to get into. I think it had women and trans people so it seemed inclusive. I mean really I'm blown away by the whole thing wow

[@rickroller5742]

Aaying repeater dosnt have high level strat is wrong. They knoe that they are the biggest threat to themselves and dont want to risk hitting eachother when not needed

[@harryblox760]

You know how radio stations have FX buttons for various different sounds and voices, etc. I think you need a Joe Rogan button of him reacting to crazy KO's when he's commentating. So if there's a crazy hit, you can hit it, and it will be Rogan shouting one of the many amazing reactions.

[@winksley1981]

You should ban horrific whistling ott for your next event. Great fights but that guy is obnoxious

[@Space_Reptile]

im bad at renembering names for all of these bots, wich one was that?

[@anarchy5partan662]

I'm glad somebody pointed that out. They even whistled like that as the announcer was trying to speak. Super rude.

[@Inkwyrm_YGO]

@Space_Reptile Wasn't a bot, just some dude in the audience who would be extremely loud ​

[@Space_Reptile]

@@Inkwyrm_YGO oh, thats annoying

[@VidrazuVidraza]

Wow! Great games.

[@Lurkmaster9000]

This just cured my battlebot fix!😭

[@letterspace1letterspace266]

How is it 1v1 with 3 bots?

[@Biggerwhenpulled]

You can have multiple bots as long as all of them together are within the weight class. Say the weight class is 3 pounds, you can have 2 1.5 pound bots instead of just one 3 pound bot.

[@letterspace1letterspace266]

@@Biggerwhenpulled oh wow. Chaos factor 👍

[@arsonfrog69__97]

yeah, the year everyone figured out that loophole was hilarious

[@euanmutch]

Please fix the gap between the walls and the floor everything constantly gets stuck in the seam and the house bot being square can't easily get them out.

[@CaptVirtual]

The wooden floor is a terrible choice resulting in many bots getting caught

[@arsonfrog69__97]

yeah but that makes it fun

[@jamestrigg8290]

Nice

[@zachb8012]

Everyone seems cool except the weirdo wearing a covid mask in 2024.

[@chermal7311]

Wouldn't knock 'im for that, he could be wearing it for any number of reasons. Maybe due to allergies, maybe he was ill, immunocompromised, etc. or just for comfort. Personally I still sometimes will wear a mask just due to my anxiety, as a sensory thing. Some people are like that. It isn't hurting anyone either, so... Why complain about it? Yes, Covid is not much of a problem anymore (still unpleasant but the current strains are far milder, having gone from around as bad as flu if not worse to more like a common cold today) but as I just said there are other reasons someone would wear a mask and it isn't hurting anybody so why should anybody care?

[@chermal7311]

Testing- my comment might've been deleted, what I said was that there are other reasons someone would wear a mask including due to allergies, other illness, anxiety, comfort (I wear em sometimes as a sensory thing l, feels nice, specifically the cloth ones) etc. plus it isn't hurting anybody so who cares? Shouldn't knock 'im for it
