Closer, but still not quite what I'm thinking of. I think it was just a head and hands on it or something. I'll have to go searching through a wiki or something to find it again.

Looks like there are plenty of flipper bots we haven't seen yet. Hopefully they launch bots good.

I've seen Tombstone go and Ghost Raptor himself and snap his blade before so that could totally happen.

Was Complete Control's net present just some troll move? I can't see them thinking that it would fly.

He said he read the rule book and noticed that the normal rule against nets and other tangle weapons weren't in it like normal.

Also am I the only one that thinks the Battlebots arena sucks? The teams controlling the hazards seem not know when to work them. Don't think I've seen those buzzsaws or spikes pop up yet.

Witch Doctor is the one with the team that's actually dressed cool and in theme with their robot. Not the MIT turbo nerds.

Overhaul has cat ears as well.

Anyway Ghost Raptor is a mother fucker and I hate them.

Bring a flying bot to Battlebots. Have a normal bot with a giant gently caress off fly swatter or pole net to smack it out of the air.

Season 2 of BattleBots will be taping from the 19th-24th and I'll be leading a team called the Chaos Corps. We've got our main bot, Bombshell, which has modular weapons that we'll swap based on who we're fighting, and Short Fuse, a 10lb quadcopter with a flamethrower.

No offense, but I hope you heli-bot blows up as good as one of the other mini bots did.

In the preview it looked like one drone's used was to just drop a big gently caress off weight on a bot from up high.
