Can you watch the videos later or is it live only?
Darling, what do you mean? The videos are on youtube, you can view them anytime you want. I can go fetch links, if you'd like.

Yeah sure, Periscope doesn't have a link anywhere, or not one I can find.

gonna organize these into spoilers


The only issue I can see you having is if any of these are regionlocked, but that should be everything.

No you silly goose, I meant the Periscope stuff. I managed to get it working earlier though.

And within an instant, Biteforce became incredibly generic.
Better than a basic wedge in my opinion.

EDIT: Obligatory "Lol, 69" post. I hope to reach a milestone that isn't this immature in the future.

Still a massive downgrade from the only effective tank tracks in the past 10 years and a nifty clamp/lifter setup.

I suppose. It was nice to see a tracked robot win something, especially in an arena with saws that spring up from the ground.

Biteforce was one of my favorites last year. the tracks with the magnets on was a good idea. This year will be Mecha Sub Zero with this torro like flipper

they said in the live video thing that the spinner is interchangeable with other weapons they have, I assume the plow and some sort of thing similar to the clamp

Treads are incredibly fragile.
Cool as hell, regardless.

I really like the new Bite Force, very low and sleek.

But I also like to see people try to improve on their previous designs, before going a different way.
Kind of like charles did with Overhawl (minus the anime).

Really excited about the new season, especially after seeing many of the competitors.

even has the cat ears the overhaul team had for the first season
Honestly, the funniest part about this is the fact someone drew a motherfuking Battle Bot.... As a sh'it-tier waifu character. It's so bad, it's actually funny.
