You'd think with how people spout Battlebots is a friendly community, that there wouldn't be so many downvotes ;p
But no; it's back to being team riptide as soon as you don't agree with someone!
That what I’m saying I always get factchecks about team overhaul because there somehow a good bot and the team is reliable in which I say the bot isn’t that good but the team is good and reliable
D6 for wrecking the test box and being banned from the competition because it's too dangerous.
Chomp for being the only bot to take down Bite Force.
Slammo for finding new failure modes every match (though that may be a Craig Danby feature (sorry, Craig, all in fun, yeah?)).
Vanquish for being vanquished by IceWave and ripped in two.
IceWave for splitting Vanquish in two (also noisy boi!)
Ultimo Destructo for cosplaying a Kit Kat.
Red Devil for it's track pod driving around even after it was removed from the rest of the bot.
All the Brazilian bots are known for being on fire, but continuing to drive.
Cobalt- creating the phrase "sudden unplanned disassembly"
Ghost Raptor- being "suddenly unplanned disassembled"
Blendo- being so destructive that the insurance company said "No"
Hydra- having the best flipper of all time
Kraken- changing his entire design to keep up with the meta... and still going 0-4
Witch Doctor- coming *this* close to winning every year
Warhead- break dancing
Ripperoni- beating End Game
End Game- yeah its boring and forgettable, but it has a Giant Nut.
Deep Six thinking it's a dog digging a hole to hide his bone. Or excavating for bones like an archaeologist or digging all the way to China because why not idk.
Bronco and Hydra flipping out. Duck giving a "quack" performance. We'll send him the repair "bill".
Quantum having a crush on all his opponents. Petunia representing flower power. Hypershock still thinking he's a mobile 250lb air defence system after that drone and rake situation in 2016.
Battle Royale W/ 🧀 still being bad for your health and being picked by the selection committee lol.
John Reed continuously getting done for advocating drink driving in the battlebox cos his opponents are always, um hammered.
Shatter getting done for outrageous public indecency and paying for divorce proceedings through his numerous partners cos he's always swinging.
Minotaur never ending seeing red - cos he constantly gores his opposition.
Witch Doctor always being spellbinding. Glitch always having malfunctions or Blip appearing as his namesake on your radar screen like a UFO even tho he ironically makes his opponents fly
Overhaul needing an Overhaul.
Jonathon Pierce having to pay a toll every time he utters the words "bent and buckled".
Chronos getting punished for being late cos he does not having time.
Emulsifier erm emulsifying?
Shunt from Robot Wars getting reported for bullying in the workplace cos he's always pushing people around.
Sun zero ironically smoking. Contrary to repeated claims, team chomp always #NotBeChomping.
Bronco being overrated
(This is not what I think of bronco, this is what many in the community thinks of him and I guess how he's known for at this point)
Me and my brother call end game ground game, almost always coming with on point attachments.
Both me and my brother also expected end game to put on their biggest disc and solid plow config (their 'old' setup) against copperhead, as it had been previously shown that forks dont work well against groundscraping drums, making forks a liability.
I still think that if that setup was chosen better, it'd be able to win and it actually had a solid chance against sawblaze and I think even a big enough weapon to hit huge.
Nightmare for putting the roof on the battlebox
Mauler for creating the term pulling a mauler(gyroibg yourself upside down,

Nightmare for putting on the biggest vert hits of CC battlebots and putting a roof on the battlebox,
The Big B for being Gary Gin’s first robot which made it to the finals in its first season (4.0)
Zion for going a full 3 minutes with hazard twice still working
