Plan X kept promise and pulverized bronco with that spinner.
Now I also know why so many americans are fat. Look at those many fast food commercials

I was spoiled about the out come of the Stinger vs Bronco Fight and who the winner of that is up against...

The commercials spoiled the semifinalists. for that I can never forgive them

RedAce · « **Reply #813 on:** July 05, 2015, 09:11:34 PM »

They spoiled a lot of fights just to show some action neglecting the fact we care about spoilers. Seriously, fire the commercial editors if they aren't already.

Well the opening of Battlebots in Comedy Central also spoiled the fights. Namely Backlash vs. Ziggo in Season 2 and Hazard vs. T-Minus in Season 5. But yes it's still very grating.

They have to appeal to the segment of the audience who won't tune in again unless you give them a constant barrage of action

RFS · « **Reply #817 on:** July 05, 2015, 10:17:35 PM »

It's a hard sell for the first couple seasons because you don't really have footage on-hand that you can default to, so spoilers unfortunately happen.

So far my thoughts on the episode.

"Spirited performance?" Why the hell do they keep saying that? Are they trying to make her not feel bad about how her creation just suck? Cause it ain't gonna work especially when it got humiliated in its fights.

Has Team Razer actually tested Warhead's self-right? They need to at least modify the shape of the wings or something and make the articulation faster. Good to see Ian Lewis in good spirit compared to how he was more than a decade ago.

Blegh. Ghost Raptor's luck kicked in this time. But now its luck has run out. It's gonna be fighting ICEWAVE.

"Speed and technique?" Surely you jest, Lisa. Aaaaand it's flipped. No surprise.

ANd they revealed the upcoming matchups as far as I can remember.

Lockjaw vs Overhaul - Ugh. Just why a rematch this early. Considering how much they SPOIL much of the fight for us. It looks like Lockjaw ain't doing so well. Its jaws was a massive disappointment enough especially when it can't lift bots effectively.
Biteforce vs. Hypershock - Very interesting matchup. One of the ferocious spinners against what may be an anti-spinner brick in design. I'm looking forward to this. That is not sarcasm. It's a pretty cool robot.
Tombstone vs. Radioactive - ...Yeah. That bot is gonna get trashed.
Witch Doctor vs. Overdrive - Um, channel the power of your ancestors, OverDrive. Anything but Minion though.

Why not Minion?

Poll

Who do you think will win the Giant Nut?
