Chomp is a beautiful piece of engineering. I just wish they'd make the wheelbase wider and put the hammer system between the wheel motors instead of on top.
I forgot to say that they should make the ground clearance just a little shorter.

Why I hate Chomp:
1. The captain of the team is a woman
I'm not a misogynist
Okay, chief.
I swear, I edited that out right when you posted, I'm definitely not the brightest guy on earth but that was just dumb of me to do that.

I don't know who agrees with the first one?!?! But the reason I hate chomp is because it's a sh**ty, barely functional battlebot. It turns over every time it hits its weapon and has the highest center of gravity I've ever seen in a battlebot. But the reason I hate it the most is because it was put through twice over two robots that clearly beat it. Disco inferno pushed it around and turned it over multiple times but because chomp's useless ****ing weapon hit it twice they got the win. then the same thing happened when bite force lost to it. It's just a sh**ty robot that made it farther than it should have because of whatever reason
Chomp actually had a good hammer.
Yes, the Disco Inferno decision was debatable, against Capt and Bite Force, percision hits disabled the weapons. This allows Chomp to control much of the fight.
I wouldn't say "controlled" the fight. Actually Chomp only got a few hits on The Disk O' Inferno, meanwhile The Disk O' Inferno kept on overturning Chomp with its lifter throughout the match.

Welp, it's not actually one of the reasons why I hate Chomp (I'm not a misogynist), Reddit users said that's one of the reasons why they hate Chomp. Oopsies.

Why I hate Chomp:
1. Like Mortis and Obwalden Overlord, they just think that state-of-the-art technology is just going to breeze them through to win the championship (ex. It has an automatic sensor inside it that fires the axe when a robot is in range of the weapon).
2. PRIMARY WEAPON (aka The Disk O' Inferno lost to Chomp despite dominating because its flywheel stalled).

That's all I can think of right now. What other reasons are there to hate Chomp in your opinion?

I have too and have qualified with an intro...who else has entered Series 3 with their robots?
I may enter
You realize if you qualify for Series 3 in time you're going to get seeded due to OA2's performance last Wars?
I'm not too bothered about seedings but it would be alright.
Alright Boto I'm counting on you to enter soon (Pheasant looks frightening, but all offense and no defense). Anyone else looking forward to entering so that way AHOG and I can keep updated?
