Let's not forget Sky High's epic attempt to break orbit in CC2.

I did see that, so I changed the original so it said "Clash Cubes 2", as well. Don't worry, I didn't take it offensively! :smile:
Oh, and LRA2? I wonder what his reaction was when his COID lost to a Cube with a funny little Circular Saw on the front?

Man, there's a lot of them.

One was in BBEANS1, when I Will Get Shredded made it to the semifinals and even when it lost, it wasn't without a fight.  I still think IWGS vs. Wedge Tracker is one of the best matches in BBEANS history.  Everyone thought IWGS would live up to its name, but it turned out to be a half-decent bot.

Also Hazardous Contraption vs. Red Red Green?, because even though HazCon ends up winning 3-0, for a large part of the match it looks like it's going to be RRG.  You really can't tell who's going to win that one until it's over.


Appending this to add:

The BBEANS5 final, when R4 is getting owned by Seism 13, but then R4 self-rights, cuts off both of S13's wedges in the process, lands directly in front of S13 and gets under it and wins.  Quite possibly the most impressive comeback ever.

Clash Cubes 2 Grindhouse vs. Shinigami, when Grindhouse won with no wheels left.  Possibly the most comebacks in any one match.

Trojan Horse vs. Cocytus IV, when Trojan Horse was on fire and missing a wheel, just spinning in circles, and it still got under Cocytus IV and won.

And Insult to Injury V vs. Mace in da face, PitA 8, and Trojan Horse.  Because of the whole upset factor (yeah it lost to TH, but it was close).

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

BUMP

I must say, there have been some very funny moments IMO.

All the ones that got voted for in the WTT awards for example.

I must agree with Click about R4 vs Seism 13.

I lol'ed at myself going OotA in RWW Series 1, and Killer Carrot getting stuck under the saw.

Nary going OotA in Replica Wars.

Mr Claws.

And S-32 beating me in NW3.

I still think that its kinda funny how BoEN made it as far it did (taking out Condor33, Trumpetguy, and Click) in R.I.P.

Also, I'm suprised no one mentioned Mr. Claws lol
