BattleBots and Robot Combat Discussion 2k18 - The Titanium Terrors Return!

Certainly going to be a crowd-pleaser with just sheer size wow factor, but I can see a good hit to one of those low support struts taking it down. Though against a robot like Minotaur, I think the only real effective method would be going for those nice exposed wheel.

Definitely cool though, kind of a scaled up Nightmare with a flipper saw instead of a cutting saw.

So I made it to the event.

I helped the right person out in the stands and got access to the pits. Smells of sparks and burnt motor.

That's awesome, I'd love to see the engineering up close!
I saw that the new season started on tv last Friday? I was out of town and didn't catch it, did anyone see it?

Yup, saw the first episode of the new season. Also watched the special live Twitch event the night before.

The new season episodes are longer, but there's a bit more filler than last season, if this new episode is any indication of the editing and content. Definitely still great fights though.

Seems the original stream was deleted from twitch, but this was a live event that happened Thursday night.

Aw man, this one got taken down, too.
