I will say that through all that, Robogeddon was still working up until that very last hit. Pretty well built underneath even if the armour wasn't.

Funnily enough thats what saved biggerbrother in season 5 against hypnodisc too. Almost like foreshadowing

[@Headspr0uter]

bit like napalm in that respect, but with a better weapon.

[@kinagrill]

hey, loose armor can be good as well. just look at something like Napalm. floppy as hell but due to the fact the armor can give and bend and move, lessens the overall potential damage from impacts.

[@spongeb27]

[@legodude494]

Such a shame Hypno-Disc never won a UK championship. They always ended up going out in such sad ways each series. Flipped by Chaos 2 this series, jammed wheel against Pussycat next series, utterly destroyed Bigger Brother but still lost due to being pitted in series 5, losing out 3rd place to Firestorm because their motors went in the same series, a failed disc against Tornado in series 6 plus failing to win anything in both Extremes. Such a sad record for such a beastly robot. 22 wins but 10 losses, many of which were down to bad luck, which is so sad. I'd like to have seen Hypno-Disc become champions at least once.

[@Whoami691]

It still crushes me whenever i see hypno disc go down that pit against bigger brother. We could have had Hypno Disc v Razor.

[@legodude494]

@@Whoami691 Yeah, Hypno-Disc was just plagued by such bad fortune. Such a track record and entering every series between 3-6 including both extremes, but never getting anything to show for it. The only trophy they won was "Most Original Entry" in series 3, which is such a shame. Also I think we *could* have gotten Hypno-Disc vs Razer in one of the extremes, as it was on the cards as a potential battle. However, both teams were also fighting in the UK championship so declined the fight, as they both wanted to avoid major damage for the UK championship.

[@dspencer8827]

I agree

[@NoobixCube]

At this point, there are two teams that really “get it” with destructive weapons (I’m not talking about flippers like Cassius, here). Razer’s team understands it doesn’t matter how fast an axe swings if it’ll bounce off a custard tart, so they went with slow, high pressure. Hypnodisc’s team understand that a 3,000 RPM cutting disc is useless if you’d feel safe stopping it with your Johnson, because it doesn’t have the torque to push through resistance. 600 RPM, and just a LOT of mass.

[@legoferrari14]

13:20 the sudden gasps throughout the pits as Hypno Disc tears up their opponent in their debut fight in the background was awesome.

[@xtheamazingax]

"When we took Hypno-Disc to the 3rd wars for its 1st appearance, we had no idea how the disc was going to work. We knew we had a powerful weapon but we didn't- we weren't too sure." Words from Dave Rose from the Ultimate Warrior DVD. Didn't take long to find out just what Hypno-Disc could do.

[@Max-xz8hl]

Probably my favourite heat final of all time (with S4's Pussycat vs Razer and S7's X-Terminator vs Tsunami closely behind), Hypno-Disc meeting its first ever adversary so the Roses had to use their tactics and strategy to win rather than sheer power. Nothing but respect for the Berserk 2 team for putting up such a good fight and admittedly getting unlucky with the arena spike, though Hypno-Disc helping it up again was nice, this debut episode as a whole perfectly showcased the personality of the Rose team - power, ingenuity and sportsmanship.

[@sp0nge1337]

13:10 Those screens in the background are showing the Hypno-Disc fight. You can hear the awe in the roboteers watching it.

[@TKBomber7285]

[@tourdeforce17]

Legendary debut from Hypno-Disc, but honestly they did get a bit lucky in the final. Beserk II might have taken the win if it weren't for that damned spike...

[@cr10001]

True that Berserk II was a pretty tough robot, though its axe was fairly feeble. HypnoDisc got spiked too, one could argue that it was more stable than Berserk which is why Berserk got flipped when HypnoDisc didn't. And also, Berserk would probably have remained immobile if Hypnodisc hadn't righted them. HypnoDisc *could* have lost through being flipped, but they didn't... So IMO they deserved their win.

[@dingbat3440]

I'm glad they removed them by series 4. I remember them being wholly responsible for a few defeats in the semi-finals.

[@lampini]

"It's going to fall to pieces". Since they were about to encounter HypnoDisc, that was maybe not too startling a prediction to make :)

[@sirwoollyjumper4893]

Fun fact, as most spinners nowadays have asymmetrical discs/blades. Hypnodisc here had an asymmetrical flywheel, it had the slicing tooth on the side and another tooth on top of the disc as a counterweight.

[@northumbriabushcraft1208]

Hypno disc ripping out the insides of stealth was the equivalent of a gladiator dismboweling his opponent, and the battery coming out was like it's heart was ripped out. What hypno disc did to robogeddon then stealth and then was close with beserk II, but Hypno Disc such a cool machine. Like Razer, Chaos II and Firestorm, Robot Wars Legends!

[@exposingthedarknesswiththe9190]

*ALL THAT WORK TO BUILD THESE ROBOTS ONLY TO BE DEFEATED FOR A LACK OF DRIVING SKILLS OR PERHAPS THEIR DRUNK DRIVERS...?!!*

[@111111hakar]

It's always odd going back and seeing where obscure teams were randomly ahead of the game, Allygator just chilling there with ground scraping wedgelets before Most people had even figured out the edge.

[@DevilboyScooby]

I think part of this was because early on a lot of the robots were built with obstacles in mind (even the series 3 qualifiers was some sort of obstacle course/slalom) and didn't know the gauntlet/trials had been dropped until after they were built, so low ground clearances only really became common from series 4 onwards, whereas low ground clearance was the bane of robots like Angel of Death and Vector of Armageddon early on.

[@Tmccreight25Gaming]

My all time favourite. Others have cmoe along later that put it to chame, but Hypno's the grand daddy of those powereful spinners.

[@waffels4you]

Hypnodisc took the best idea of Blendo and made it more practical. I'm surprised it took this long for someone to do it, but you can't deny...it was an awesome weapon.

[@TheRookiecop1]

There was no flip in that flipper and the speed on steath was ass. That said, oof! Some of that footage...I tell ya if it wasn't for Hypno Disc's debut, Robot wars probably wouldn't have lasted another season. Hypno Disc created spinning destuction, Carbicde and tombstone perfected it.

Adam Clark should win some sort of award for sheer persistence if nothing else! Which judge voted for Corporal Punishment though? And what highlights were there? Berserk 2 was built like a tank, has a way to flip opponents and an overhead weapon. It was pretty much perfect for stopping Hypno Disc, but didn't! Probably didn't help that it drove over one of those BS spikes. Hypno Disc... What is there to say that numerous others haven't already? Oh, here's something! It really benefited from the removal of the Gauntlet and the demotion of the Trials to a bunch of side competitions. It's all weapon, which was pretty unique for the time. There's no way it would have survived something like Sumo or Tug of War! Might have been alright at Skittles? Death Warmed Up... Sorry, I am never going to have high amounts of confidence in a bloke who believes a shovel compensates for a lack of power. Walkers that aren't Anarchy are pretty universally rubbish.

[@Verminator4]

I remember watching this episode as a kid and having not been that impressed with any saw / spinner type weapons I'd seen on the show up to that point, didn't think hypnodisc would be that powerful or dangerous. I was convinced that flippers were the way forward and thus had Stealth pegged to win this heat after the first look at each contestant. Man was I wrong.

[@jakamneziak]

Irenembe seeing the name hypnodisc (i missed the intro for this show when it was first aired) and I thought 'what a stupid name for a robot. It won't make anything' how WRONG I was.

[@davidfearis7335]

HYPNO-DISC deserved to be champions for a least one year they had the means to be as well

[@Whoami691]

Shremechs weren't a common thing yet, they didn't know there would be so many flippers, by the time they put one in, flippers were strong enough to flip robots out of the arena. the final of this series was always going to be decided in about the first 30 seconds. All Chaos II needed was one good flip before they could get that flywheel up to speed, but at the same time it's armour was light and weak, so all hypno disc needed was one solid hit. As it happens, chaos II got there first.

[@AxlePineapple]

that's what robogeddon and stealth look like? i didnt recognise them intact.

[@spaghetticoconut658]

To be fair, given how loud these fights get (I've seen live fights between just lightweight bots!) they probably had a little bit of an advantage because of the lack of distractions! Believe me, the show NEVER did justice to how very loud these fights get! xD

[@brainspider]

Being deaf isn;t to much of a drawback here, all they need is to be told when the start and stop and also to have a interepretor at iterviews, etc.

[@CrowMaiden]

kinda feel bad for the stealth team... you can see the driver going 'no. don't do it. don't do it' before the flipper gets taken out by hypno-disc.... but on the other hand, it was a good show by hypno-disc.

[@burzaburza2970]

Yeah im like 50/50 about that. There is no need to totally destroy work done to the other robot (and money) but... it's Robot Wars, as been said they dont promise to any1 that they robots will come back as they entered to show

[@danielfennessey]

To be honest, it was called robot wars. To win, you gotta beat your opponent decisively. You would know the risks if you entered a robot in a Robot combat tournament. And as JP said, honest endeavor to all who enter.

[@burzaburza2970]

Im REALLY surprised how good Beserk II did. It was like 50/50 final but imho arena spike did the job for HypnoDisc! It was like 3:2 in football match!

[@PredictedCyborg]

Beserk's shell was not only strong, it was rounded - so it was the best robot in the heat to be able to glance off the blows of the early Hypnodisc blade. Combine that with the weapon and Hypnodisc finally had a battle on its hands! I remember first watching this as a kid and being like "They stopped the disc!" because given how Hypnodisc had performed in the previous fights that was MASSIVE. Suddenly the Rose family had to show off how good the robot was without being able to count 100% on their weapon, which was the main strength of it. :D

[@cr10001]

Bear in mind that HypnoDisc bounced off the spike a couple of times too, but without getting flipped. So maybe a more stable flip-resistant design. It was admittedly a lot closer than expected, bearing in mind what HypnoDisc did to the two previous bots.

[@BiaZarr]

I mean... They clearly thought about how to combat Hypnodisk. The very first thing they did was turn their flipper towards hypnodisk, they knew exactly what they were doing. Also they really just had the bravery to not be impressed by the havok raised by hypnodisk

[@sticklicious9048]

That BSL at the start was truely seemless.

[@MusicHavenSG]

HypnoDisc's team really understood the physics of the flywheel by giving mass with speed to convert to kinetic energy to damage opponents. Then further improved in series 4 with blunter blades with more surface area for even larger energy transfer for striking and pulling thicker armor rather than slashing. The moment they upped the motors, the Roses could afford to increase the weight of the disc while further increasing the speed. Btw, RIP Ken Rose, the Dad of the HypnoDisc Team. Just my opinion, the Series 3 weapon was alot noisier than future series though.

Quite possibly, but HypnoDisc got spiked a few times too, but without getting flipped. So IMO HypnoDisc deserved the win, but it was a lot closer than expected.

Neither bot was immobilised or even much damaged. HypnoDisc didn't do really badly, so much as fail to shred Berserk II the way it did the two previous bots. But Berserk II got flipped and would have been immobilised if HypnoDisc hadn't righted them. So on the whole, HypnoDisc performed slightly better.

[@Aunini]

I'm guessing Corporal Punishment received a vote so it wouldn't be a completely shitty way to go out? I mean, there is supposed to be a time limit on being stuck on another robot, and instead he had to deal with it for essentially the entire match, giving him no chance; and say its 'immobilized' all you like, but it doesn't change the fact he never had an opportunity to demonstrate mobility :\

As a technical rule, the House Robots are allowed to leave their CPZs to attack beaten machines or machines that are stuck in some way. However, they're not allowed to come out of the CPZ when the competing machines are freely attacking each other. There have been numerous occasions during the original run of the show where they broke the rules during a fight though.

[@jhibbitt1]

they can attack a robot if its pushed into their cpz but aren't allowed to pursue the robot if it escapes. once a robot gets immobilised, then the house robots can come out and attack it without any limitations. I think this is why they put refbot and his timer in in later series', that way it made it clearer to when the house robots could attack

[@crystalheart9]

Hypno-Disc is one scary robot. The way Craig laughs when a robot gets destroyed by Hypno-Disc is so funny :D I wonder if Hypno-Disc ever went up against Razer or Typhoon? Thanks for uploading this show I'm really enjoying it :)

[@crystalheart9]

I would like to see that one!

[@crystalheart9]

I'm thinking Razer as well. That robot is so strong in it's design I think it could beat Hypno-Disc. I think it would be strong enough to stop the disc and get it into it's clamp.

[@crystalheart9]

You are right it can cause damage to Razer. I did see (is it shunt?) one of the house robots on one episode where it hit Hypno-Disc with it's ax and stopped it dead in it's tracks. I couldn't believe it. The guys who have Hypno-Disc said the sudden stop of the disc caused some internal damage to the robot. I'm sure you are right about getting it into the pit but It seems very difficult to avoid that disc. I've seen robots dance around it trying to get behind it but it always manages to get them with that disc. Razer and Carbide would be a good one too. Also I would like to see Typhoon vs Hypno-Disc. Two spinning robots :D

[@Threadoflength]

In the past several UK mainstays like Razer, Panic Attack, Dantomkia, and Bigger Brother competed in Battlebots and were pretty mediocre.

Not really, Beserk was immobilised by spike. HypnoDisc just helped them to get back

Did he really just say his name is true fart?

[@burzaburza2970]

Hypnodisc 800 pounds, same from the beggining of Robot Wars Napalm - 5000

I love robot wars to bits, one of my favourite shows ever but this was on the history channel? Come on history, put actual history content on! Tbh these days the history channel still has non history related content but it sucks, at least robot wars was good.

I wonder if the host messes up the remote signal with those ears he's got?!
