In the end guys like the drivers of tombstone and complete control bring a bit extra next to the fact that there bots are awesome too. Btw, the leader of minotaur the brazillian with the german accent (what is up wth that?) is pretty cocky aswell haha. So i think it will be a great fight. :D
As of the current state I would say they are right. Of course every bot could beat Obvalden and Black Ice (except scorpios) but none of the current RW bots could hold up against Hypershock or any other bot that got some but not alot screentime.
If we only take the bots we've seen in the RW reboot into account, then definitely. But there are good bots out there(sadly many of them just aren't updated to today's standards yet)

4 Brook moo moo moo moo moo moo how old was the movie food for Louis Missouri man hustle full moon eager for blow blow
Isn't the gulf in quality between BB and RW bots because BB allows sponsors and thus the builders have more money to spend on the bots?
also I hate Bronco's asswedge. Makes their fights a lot less fun
Drones are a permanent meme. they need to be lightweight to fly. No HW weapon can fit onto them.
