RoboGames 2013: Last Rites vs. Vlad the Impaler

[@ray9368]

And I now have a signed piece of Vlad, on my garage wall. There are very few pieces of combat matches that I have kept as trophies, but this is one of them :)

[@starsheepgaming33]

Oh hi!

[@mikedski9698]

Very nice!

[@bruvafusion2943]

Vlad, unfortunately, is obsoletion realized.

[@RobotwarsKing]

Razer's been retired for years, now. Comparing it and Last Rites is like comparing Apples and Oranges, so why bother?

[@SpitfireFortyFour]

After that Vlad joined Chaos, BioHazard and Panic Attack 24k in the great ex-champ scrapheap in the sky.

[@RobotwarsKing]

It actually got rebuilt fairly quickly afterward, surprisingly. It's retired of course, though.

[@RobotwarsKing]

Just as a minor update- Vlad II has since been repaired and been on display alongside the original Vlad the Impaler.

[@Leatherface123.]

Where

[@isaacboampong4951]

That wasn't a fight; that was a dissasembly.

[@kiyahniredd112]

BULLSHIT, LAST RIGHTS FUCKED HIM UP 😲😲

[@datguy8805]

To qoute the daleks "this is not war it is pest control"

[@bldjln3158]

Kiyahni Redd oh god

[@RennieAsh]

_This isn’t war, this is sport! Ha_ - Skorr

[@JohnRitchiejd23]

MY GOD, RAY! That was the most complete destruction I've seen since Splinter vs Hypno-Disc.

[@Compass6633]

Except what Hypno did to thin aluminum, Last Rites does to shock mounted titanium. Plus, Hypno never hurled broken pieces across the arena when it removed them :)

[@RennieAsh]

Equivalence.

[@Romax-pg2is]

Weird to think that Vlad actually beat Last Rites sometime before with Jason Bardis at the controls.

[@lisaeverage9691]

Vlad The Impaler: "My BattleBots record is 16-4!" Last Rites: "I will put that silly record to shame."

[@TheOreoOverlord]

Reminds me of tombstone vs counter revolution. Yes ik tombstone and last rites are the same bot

[@PKSandman]

Chaos 2 vs. Razer vs. 13 Black, Extreme 2 All-Stars Tournament. Also, this fight was more destructive than the Mechavore Massacre of '01.

[@mikedski9698]

Last Rites K.O. Vlad The Impaler! Excellent Fight, Ray!

[@aguinaldobora2666]

Duas lendas dos combates de robôs

[@HiroNguy]

Compared to what we see today in 2022 Vlad's armor appears to be aluminum foil.

[@no65mph]

Different Bot. Gage built Vladiator a lot stronger than Vlad2. Gage sold both bots to someone who didn't know much about engineering once Battlebots was done.

[@T86157]

What kind of equipment did you use to record this? This is amazingly clear and zoomed in!

[@aznravechild6i9]

And I thought the Mechavore fight was brutal...

[@RocketNothing]

What a monster

[@JohnWilliams-ew1oh]

ANNHILATION

[@mr8I7]

Why is the once great bot being subjected to these massacres? Last Rites, Touro Maximus and Whiplash!

[@twks123]

Was this the vlad they used in BB season 5.0? cause it looked with such poor building quality.

[@helloface001]

Why don't you like Biohazard? Also, this WAS a real Vlad. Vlad 2 replaced Vlad the Impaler in S5 of Battlebots.

[@233Deadman]

I am pretty sure Vlad will be at Combots Cup though, even if he has to hold the armour on with duct tape.

[@helloface001]

Vladiator was a champion and, correct me if I'm wrong, they are the same bot.

[@233Deadman]

That was the most destructive fight I saw since Hypno-Disc took out Splinter in RW series 4

[@helloface001]

Simple? 4-bar lifters and lifters with unfolding spikes aren't simple.

[@Koopa126]

I sure don't want to get into the arena against that robot.

[@helloface001]

Chaos isn't nearly as bad as Vlad & Biohazard. :'(

[@bradleygrace7783]

something reminds me of hypno-disc vs splinter

[@KRaFightsDragNs]

What battle was Chaos destroyed in?

[@ruckusdc5]

Last Rites is the Zeus of robots.

[@helloface001]

Ah. My mistake.

[@no65mph]

I think Vladiator was a much better/stronger bot. I should know, I worked with Gage. The problem is, Gage used Al for armor when that bot should have been Ti. Both bots should have had ti armor.

[@datguy8805]

no65mph money

[@burmesebeef]

good riddance, i hate wedge-type bots

[@TiagoXAF]

Razer vs Last Rites = Razer Junk R.I.P. 2013 kkkkkkkkkk
