WTF Moments in Robot Combat
« on: October 27, 2012, 07:03:54 PM »
I know we've seen plenty of crazy, unexpected incidents in RA2 (ie Havok Explosions), but what about in real life?  What are some of the biggest WTF moments you've seen in things like Battlebots, Robot Wars, and any past or current robot combat events?

I'll start with this one.  Ever thought Son of Whyachi was unbeatable?  Well have a look at this.

Battlebots 7: LW Quarterfinals - Voltergeist
Battlebots 7: MW Quarterfinals - Dr. Demolition
Battlebots 8: MW Quarterfinals - Dr. Demolition
Battlebots 9: HW Quarterfinals - Texas Tornado
Battlebots 9: Middleweight Champion - Dr. Demolition
Minor Inconveniences: Runners-up - Hot Rod/Voltergeist
TGRR2 IRL: Texas Tornado 11 wins - 10 losses

You go to stop saying that, it's starting to really piss me off. Though I do agree with razer vs matilda.

Agreed- it won by falling apart. Honestly, what else needs to be said about it?

Pretty much all of Hypno-Discs performances in Extreme 1 were bullsh**. The annihilator, the fight against Behemoth and the wildcard match against TX-108.

On the plus side, you did have this-

"There goes a whole wheel! A whole wheel has come off- what an attack...oh, there goes the other one, and why not?
 
So Ming 3, what are you going to do now, then? Come on...back in the action! Creep across the arena floor!"
