...and the desperado is now a vertical spinner slugfest. I at least hope that Minotaur wins.

...Well that was quick. Did WARHawk forget it was fighting?

I wanna see more of Deep Six.

Goddamn it...

Minotaur over lucky
End game over Gruff
Black Dragon over Shrederator
War hawk over Ragnarok

Minotaur over End game
Black dragon over War hawk

Final looks really close, I would go Black Dragon just because Minotaur's been so unreliable.

Congrats on your perfect bracket.

Thanks! Was really surprised black dragon won the JD as the rules say aggression can only be scored with an active weapon and minotaur seemed to have the damage points but glad they did, it was well deserved.

Apparently we get Gigabyte vs HUGE in the next episode. That sounds like a whole load of yes.

Rumours of nelly vs deep six too which would be absolutely hilarious if true

I was thinking Deep Six Vs SOW, but that would be great too

Posted: **Thu Aug 08, 2019 2:39 pm**

Witch Doctor, Huge, Breaker Box, Mammoth (I know), SOW, SubZero, Deep Six (should be glorious).

Season Record: 47-17

If only, texas twister is a pretty good sub though.

Huge, Breaker Box, Wan Hoo, Sow, Sub Zero, Nelly (Much more manouverable than Axe Backwards, secretly hoping we get to see it punted all the way back to the uk though) and Witch doctor. Their srimech counters the lifter and also protects the top from when Whiplash brings their spinner down from above. Plus Whiplash doesnt like big spinners.

Okay, I hate Mammoth and even I think they got robbed. They smacked Wan Hoo around so hard it was smoking. What a load.

Posted: **Fri Aug 09, 2019 6:23 pm**

P1 is not a great opponent, but it's still cool to see SubZero actually do something for the first time in three seasons.

Yeah, that was a gimme fight. Still fun to see a ring-out though.

I've been watching since the Comedy Central days, and I'm pretty sure that's the first double K.O. I've seen.

Posted: **Fri Aug 09, 2019 6:38 pm**

Wow, that fight was even more glorious than I thought it would be. Did you see how far that vertical spinner cut into the floor?

The thing is a menace to floors everywhere.

3-0 Bitch Doctor. This is my personal Battlebots Hell.

The smoke was just the wheels on the floor. None of the motors or anything were smoking.

Imagine getting drawn against Bite Force in three out of four seasons...

Bite Force, Hydra, Yeti, Skorpios, Bronco, Monsoon, Copperhead. Hate to not pick any upsets, but this card isn't doing me any favors.

Season Record: 52-19

Posted: **Fri Aug 16, 2019 9:52 am**

Hydra, Yeti, Scorpios, Free Shipping, Monsoon, Copperhead. The main event seems really close to me, going to go with Hypershock as Bite Force seems to win by always getting under its opponent and I think this is the first time it's been put up against something with wedgelets. Aside from Yeti which it kind of struggled with.

Hydra, Yeti, Skorpios, Bronco, Valkyrie, Copperhead, Bite Force

Posted: **Fri Aug 16, 2019 6:00 pm**

Wow... now we know why they got a rematch at the Live Stream event.

Posted: **Fri Aug 16, 2019 7:15 pm**

That Chronos win was excellent, purely because I didn't think they had a hope in hell. It must have been that awesome Tears for Fears reference that gave them luck.

Also, Bite Force is 3-0, but they look more beatable this season. Two JDs and reduced mobility early in both of those fights. I'm saying they won't repeat as champions.

Who got a rematch?

Also, glad to see hypershock vs bite force being slightly less one sided.
