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

This allows Chomp to control much of the fight.
Why I hate Chomp:1. The captain of the team is a woman
I'm not a misogynist

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'd say it's because it had an undeserving win in one match, then everyone just held a grudge over its head when it defeated Shrederator and Bite Force fair and square.I think it won its first match because Disco's flipper didn't count as a primary weapon.The same happened with Mega Tento vs Stinger.Whatever the case is, Chomp's getting nerfed next year.
I'd personally nerf it by making control the 2 points on the score card instead of aggression.
Welp this thread is a thing sooooooooooo....I kinda hate/love Chomp as its a great concept that works and is a meh bot BUT Chomp isn't good the driver's are as Zoe managed to stop Bite Forces s*** in seconds so its your choice :)
