I love Huge but it always bums me out that their T-shirt slogan is 'We're kind of a big deal' when 'We're kind of a big Wheel' was RIGHT THERE.

I've begun to think of the main Battlebots show like a big cake. I'm going to enjoy all the ridiculous fluff and icing and decorations at the time, then go and look up the 'recipe' on YouTube or a podcast. Behind the Bots is a really good one.

There's an almost bottomless mine of stuff out there about the builders and robots out there if you are up for finding it!

Not much to add except yeah, excellent final and excellent show.

My heart was for Huge but my head was for Sawblaze, so I was grinning from ear to ear at the end. I was extremely sceptical about Sawblaze's enhancements but they pulled it off, and how.

Seems like it worked in two stages for them, the scoop initially took a lot of the impact, then those eyebrows worked perfectly to push Huge around once they'd neutered it. Once Go figured that out, they took full advantage of it. What a great fight, and props to Huge for the graceful handling of the Appeal question.

I was extremely ready for Riptide to win, Copperhead did an amazing job destroying them. I thought the lad driving Riptide did a great job, so props to him too.

Great season. Happy outcome. Win all round!
