What Is Happening With Skorpios?

[@amadensor]

To your heart: have you tried turning it off and back on again? Actually, yes.

[@BotvacProductions469]

dark humor. dunno whether to laugh or hate

[@blueovalboy]

First and foremost, take care. Our entertainment is not worth compromising your health. Thanks for all that you do in bringing us along through the builder blog.

[@snower13]

Take care of yourself! Thank you to everyone helping to get the blue beast back in the FIGHT! Best of luck in the competition!

DON'T MISS BATTLEBOTS FACEOFFS! Only On KZbin!

[@CJC_RW]

Jesus dude. 220bpm is absolutely insane. Glad you're feeling better, and don't feel any pressure to go to the Faceoff if you think it'll compromise your health. On the subject of the extra Faceoff week, as a brit I have to keep up the stereotypical obsession with flippers, so I'll go with Hydra, Blip, Banshee and Sub-Zero 😅

[@produKtNZ]

Can't even dance to music at 220 BPM! poor heart :(

[@OverlordZeroULTIMA]

Not me saying the SAME FACEOFF, lol. But let's be real, I want SubZero to return in general. I miss my icy king.

[@jonathanf2392]

Where's Bronco? Out of all 4 flippers you can name from battlebots, you leave *BRONCO???* WTF????

[@CJC_RW]

@@jonathanf2392 I forgot about it completely, but since your reaction was so visceral, I'm gonna keep my picks as per lol

[@jonathanf2392]

@@OverlordZeroULTIMA you serious? If you somehow liked subzero, then I assume you like Bronco too? Cause if not, why this discrepancy since subzero is a water down version of Bronco

4 Bots: -Return of Deep Six -Whatever Hal Rucker is cooking up -Emulsifier -Shreddit Bro

[@heartofdawnlight]

emulsifyer would be beyond terifying with a new weapon with their military grade alloy! that & ver 2 for general reliability... it'd have been nasty !

[@cygnusinfinity5126]

Hey Zach, I'm glad to hear you're recovering from that heart scare! Of course your health is priority number one! I'm glad you got a good team behind ya to keep things on pace. As for what bots I'd want to see in a theoretical bonus week of the Faceoffs? I'd really love to see a week with: The Twins, Claw Viper, Apex, Huge! I feel like it'd line up for a lot of extremely interesting fights!

[@maxoomen6392]

Zach, best of wishes and take care. We love you at home. As of the 8th week. 1. Ripperoni. 2. ICEWave 3. Huge 4. Bite force

[@Maze-437]

I wish

[@simonabunker]

It can be hard to spot caffeinated drinks sometimes eg the + on Sprite+ is not obvious at all! Glad to hear you are recovering from this.

[@SmilingGrouch]

HOLY CUSS. Your heart was going as fast as a ten-pound cat’s!! I’m so sorry that happened and glad you’re resting. Best wishes to you, your family, and your team from PDX!

[@miniroboticsleaguecompetitions]

Take care of yourself! And good luck in faceoffs. I'd love to see Hydra, End Game, Minotaur, and Sawblaze

[@russbarrow]

Nice Shirt, represent.......

[@SkorpiosBattlebot]

You know it!

[@FoolishBanana]

Please take care, Zach. Your health comes first. As for what four bots I'd choose for an eighth week, I'd choose Hydra, Whiplash, Rotator, and Shatter. A healthy mix of different bot types for the sake of variety and they're all solid in their own right. I think they would all put on a good show. Also, UFWoe withdrew and Rusty took its place. Poor Rusty is gonna get mauled by Manta.

[@inthegreensquare]

Hope you get better soon Zach! If I had to set a 8th Faceoffs weekend, not really much of a dream exactly but 4 robots that i was kinda hoping we'd maybe see at Face-offs include 1. Banshee 2. Gigabyte 3. Emulsifier or Shatter 4. Captain Shrederator

[@SE_CombatRobots]

Glad you are on the mend!!!! You are important, take time for you!

[@jefersilver]

Get better, Zach! My best wishes for you! Take care

[@masterod1]

So glad you are safe now. God bless you.

[@thedman1696]

Hope you can stay on top of that health issue man. Stay well!

[@OverlordZeroULTIMA]

As someone who had a mom with a heart issue - as well as a diabetic dad - I deinitely know just how much those issues can effect someone. I'm so glad you're doing better, and I admit, this is why I don't drink caffienated energy / hydration drinks. Though my dad also mentioned drinking something that made his #2 change colors so that was a "nice" tidbit... :/ PLEASE take care of yourself first and always! I'm super glad you have a supportive community to keep you in, but don't be afraid to do what you feel is right. Health should always come first. The question is very intriguing! I feel like I would be interested in seeing a flipper facing off! So maybe Blip v SubZero v Banshee v Hydra? Talk about ground game control!

[@gregoryhancock6057]

Love you guys, RECOVER and do what needs to be done. I think we would rather have YOU than a fun TV show moment. If I had to pick my four favorites for a Week 8 list: Sawblaze, Minotaur, Huge, and Hydra.

[@wristofkings]

A runaway heart is some scary shit. Glad you're still with us Zach! That new weapon arm is looking beautiful too.

[@madisonlopresto2396]

I'm glad you're ok, and know the issues behind what happened. the two times ive gone into the hospital due to out of control BP were initially terrifying. It's your heart, you have no control over it, and you NEED it to work right. take the rest, trust your team, pet some animals.

[@starry53]

So glad you're okay for now. Get better soon, Zach. Team Skorpios won't be the same without you.

[@blackmagicbanette2820]

Dream group of 4 bots? Fusion, Black Dragon, Gruff, and Free Shipping would be pretty fire :^)

[@Lusidous]

Rest up brah, we need you in this sport

[@BamTehBrent]

So cool that you let us see all the intricacies of Skorpios. Loved watching the fiddling with the idler. Makes me feel like I'm right there and it makes it very real. Take it easy though, health always comes first!

[@plunderbird]

I am sorry you been through that take it easy and hope your recovery goes well

[@deathrev0859]

Glad you’re doing better! Take care of yourself and stay relaxed!

[@BotFansUnited]

So glad you're okay. 😊 Please take care. ❤ My dream group would be: - Minotaur - Yeti - Duck - and Aromic Chile to fill the new bot entry.

[@jackboulter4901]

Take care of yourself Zach and good luck with face offs 😊

[@page2738]

Get Well soon and Take care of yourself!

[@TeamVector441]

Were just glad your ok and taking care of medical issues Zach, that always comes first! And take it easy till you recover, we love battlebots but not so much that health becomes compromised. If you ever need help I'm a builder here in the bay area if you guys ever need assistance :) Were all happy your ok and we all look forward to you making more videos! And with the what if bots I would have to say I really wanna see a fight between Claw Viper and Sawblaze(Never seen them fight before and would be an interesting match between two control bots) Riptide and Biteforce(I wanted to say Riptide and Manta but Mantas already competing, would be cool to see the older hard hitter vs the new kid on the block you know?)

[@jeditrainee]

Sending good thoughts and happy beeps!

[@BravadoBB]

Hope you get better soon Zach ❤ For my dream Faceoffs lineup: -Double Jeopardy -Broadside (that British robot that applied for season 6) -a better version of season 2 Brutus -Neptune from CC 3.0 There's a link there 😉

[@l8dawn]

oh damn, I'm so sorry to hear that D: take it easy for the next few days if you can

[@bakev5047]

It would be awesome if Huge could go in the “eighth week”. Oh and also Hydra. Keep up the great work Skorpios team! Hope you recover quickly.

[@FauxPaRC-yo2jn]

Always take care of yourself. I hope and pray that you are well enough to compete next weekend. I know you do this because you love this, but please remember to keep yourself healthy so you can do this a long time. As for an eighth face-off, I'm sure people would love to see heavy hitters like SawBlaze, HUGE, Hydra, or Minotaur. But how about an all eastern hemisphere matchup? Death Roll (Orby) Blade Railgun Max Wan Hoo

[@emaloney_]

Sorry to hear about your condition. Glad it all came out ok for you, but what a terrible journey.. Take extra care of yourself!

[@sliders15]

Hope you're feeling better soon! My dream faceoff would be: Quantum, Beta, Blip and Blacksmith!

[@vladpop998]

Take care of yourself , please , hope Daiana is doing fine as well . That must have been a serious jumpscare for her and yourself

[@colanitower]

Dream group of robots? Skorpios, Skorpios, Skorpios and Skorpios. 4 older ones. I guess the winner will be Skorpios but against 3 other Skorpioses it's all driving skills that will win the fight. Could be fun

[@bami2]

Take care Zach!

[@polarationmotion948]

My Dream Matchup would be a group comprised of Huge, Ripperoni, Banshee and Dragon King!

[@GrumpleBots]

Shreddit, Mammoth, Deep Six, and GigaPaws :-)

We need: Ripperoni Quantum Copperhead Sawblaze

[@Theprophet3928]

[@BellyLover06]

Laughter is the best medicine.

[@mikedski9698]

Turbo Hypershock And Flying Valkyrie Vs. Space Orbitron And Tombstone The King Of Kinetic Energy!

[@alexanderthegreat3444]

My dream 4 robots for a face-off bracket are Sawblaze,shatter, lockjaw and gigabyte. It's a bit of an odd group of robots but I think they'd all make for pretty good fights.

[@Boomtendo4tw]

Bots looking great! Get well

[@SkorpiosBattlebot]

Thank you!

[@WatermelonNoel]

I’m gonna stick with the format; 1 Household name, 1 rookie, and 2 veterans Household name: Whiplash, had an off year during WCVII, maybe faceoffs is he place to make sure fixes and that spinner are working correctly Rookie: maybe cheating, but The Twins, with only one 0-1 fight under their belt I really need to see at least 3 minutes in the arena for me to be REALLY excited for them 2 vets: Kraken and Shatter!, 2 overheads with insane durability, Kraken’s been on a rough loss streak and Shatter! lost a lot of credibility in the eyes of the audience, both are making a lot of changes coming into next season im sure, and faceoffs is the place to prove they are still a force to be reckoned with. I’m also quite a big fan of how all 4 of these hits play off each other in a match.

[@BotvacProductions469]

i bet getting defibrillated is absolutely traumatizing. please get well soon, and take it easy. i hope you get better soon

[@funnybones46]

I can’t beat the final week of fights but here’s a group that could be the halfway point. Emulsifier is a top choice because of the Secret blade and its underwhelming first year. Free shipping who is a classic for Battlebots and we love some good ol Gary driving. Shredit bro would be fun for it had upsets with lots of good bots like yours. And finally any Aaron hill Bot form their new twins or some more blip tuning for wc8

[@epiphonium]

OWCH ! Take care of yourself buddy !

[@kylep.9395]

Bite Force, SOW, Chomp (Walker), and Bronco
