Anyone know if Megabyte still competes?

College 120lb will be on the CBS college sports channel. Haven't heard if/when/what the Pro 220lb class or the HS120lb class will be on.

I can't reveal any of the results of those matches due to the NDA I signed to compete.

In a previous thread where I was making fun of Bender someone mentioned that he was drawn against Megabyte and that "Bender is now 2-6", which I'm assuming means Megabyte won at least 1 fight.
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

I'm honestly not sure, The 15lb tournament overlapped with the big bots by a fair bit, and I missed a bunch of early stuff. Bender did look great at BBots. It had a steampunk-ish paint job going on.

Some pics from BBots that avoid spoilers:

Blender was a HS Middleweight at the competition. Bender is the copper and brass colored HW. I will restate again that due to the contract I signed, I cannot discuss the content of the matches in the HS120, College120 or Pro220 classes.
