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

[@NotDrDre]

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

[@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

[@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

[@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

[@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

[@VidrazuVidraza]

Wow! Great games.

[@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.

[@Lurkmaster9000]

This just cured my battlebot fix!😭

[@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

[@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

[@jamestrigg8290]

Nice

[@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

[@白坂稔-u8j]

ロボットを作っても破壊を楽しむそりゃ戦争はおわりませんわな～日本人とは根本がやはり違うと思う。人型で戦闘とは全く関係ない煽り動作を取り入れてロボ競技をしようとする。日本とは全く違う

[@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
