Can't see the video because I'm not living in the US, but only that disc spin part, anything else about the battle was normal and way too overhyped.

Here is a region free upload of the fight for non US people

http://eachvideo.com/watch?v=0Q7nZlcOlkg

Agreed about it becoming a somewhat famous match, The Selfrighting using the disc as an anchor was really cool and thats probably the biggest fireball in a mainstream televised Robot Fight.

They are silly to region lock it really.. that match has a lot of mainstream appeal / exposure for casual viewers

TFW an audience member with a camera phone shoots it better than the TV crew.

major wtf moment right here folks

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I couldn't see the bots real well, but that was one of those dreaded "malfunction creates fate" matches.

Sorry about that, I just barely caught that fight with my GoPro, I was downstairs chatting with my pops when the fight began so I rushed upstairs but couldn't make it to my previous vantage point before the fight started. Hoping to attend Motorama next year so hopefully my filming will improve.

Try mounting the camera directly above the arena. That'll look cool.

Damn. Good thing they have 2 sets of walls.

It’s a grabber.

Back to the video- I have no idea what you’re trying to point out, but bots getting caught in walls is usually caused by kinetic energy buildup in spinners. This can cause bots to land in awkward positions.

No it's a lifter in the style of Bite force 2015 like Tommy just said.

Back to the video-bots getting stuck on walls is caused by the bot getting caught on a wall :/

Yeah, bots do tend to get caught in the walls of an arena from time to time.
