Really happy to see all the rookies competing.  Shows the game is still thriving.  The stock designs have a great throwback feel lol.

That looks pretty damn cool. Be even better if you found a way to get the wheel inside the side panel.

Finally ended up watching this.  Love it just as much as I did when I was young.  A few comments overall:

-Multibots officially suck.  I don't care what philosophy you're trying to push, they are ineffective against a machine 2 or more times its size.

-Vertigo (Michael Oates) looks like Logic.

-Format is fixed appropriately I think.

-John Reid is slowly going senile.

-They need to take a longer break if they're going to make another series in order to get more competitors.  I don't want to see the same gang of bots in the final every time.

-I really do hope they keep making theses.

I think with regards to why DSL IRL is so played now, especially in 2017 is mainly because its just so easy to get into compared to the other metagames currently. Stock's suffering from severe stagnation right now, with most of the builds now being the same bot types with a few things changed (HS/VS/Popup/the occasional stiltbot/SnS if they're allowed). DSL-S in 2.2 suffers from balancing problems which is why mechavore flywheels and other replica weapons reign dominant and Ironforge is the most balanced of the competitive metagames right now, but tends to have flippers reign supreme in arenas with OotA zones.

With DSL-IRL, most of the people look at this and tend to have their own design ethos, and along with the enormous variety in robot designs right now, its easy to see why DSL-IRL is so often played. With RA2CF and other stuff, IRL's possibilities have become almost limitless, with the limit being the havok engine. :P

I'm not saying that I won't enter TWatDW - hell, I may try to build something if I have the chance to, but theres a reason so few are going to other metagames now in 2017, with some exceptions like Revolution 2 and RA2 Mafia.

Aye - I remember that back when I used to build (so, 2010-12, nothing special) that the trend away from Stock was already starting. I think back then was when DSL-IRL started to get some attention - Freeziez did a series of tournaments (Battlebots?) which seemed to be one of the most popular around at the time.
Haven't seen you in a while.

Graham Zusi... This is correct, correct?
This would still be wrong if we were doing soccer. Zusi aint a first round pick in any league.

CW drum, as previewed in the Discord. Wasn't sure what to name it, or what to do with the blue colour scheme, until I remembered I was gonna build a defensive rammer called Millwall Brick for Redditbots LW. That didn't happen, so I repurposed the name. The drum is powered by 2 Flatmotors hidden inside the extenders, the two halves are slightly misaligned but it'll do for now.

Yep! Base is wide enough from the skirts and the back sheet prevents kickback.
