Huge Vertical Spinner Shot! Tantrum vs. End Game | Battlebots | Discovery

[wristofkings]

Every single time these two have met it's been a great fight. Tantrum is quicker and more maneuverable, but has always come up a little short on the weapon side compared to End Game and that along with the latter's superior ground game seems to be the determining factor. I look forward to seeing if Team Seems Reasonable's future designs have a better shot at taking down 4WD verts like End Game and Riptide.

[RandomAxeOfKindness]

Tantrum has a terrific drivetrain and a very good driver, but its weapon just needs to extend further. Otherwise, these both end up being bots that need to bring other bots to their weapons, rather than the other way around, and End Game has a bigger spinner that effectively reaches further.

All 3 times they fought each other end game won. The thing is that tantrum needs to drive perfectly in order to win, but all end game need is one shot to take off tantrum forks to win. But the defending champ is out, so no back to back champ this season, tho end game still has a chance to win meaning we could still see a repeat, or maybe we get an all new champion, who knows

Seemed like the forks on Endgame were getting in the way, holding Tantrum out of range of Endgame's weapon.

I don't know what chains some of these bots use, but possibly look into The Shadow Conspiracy bmx interlocking Supreme chain.

Might be the best push fight ive seen. Tantrums power really makes it the better bot. The pilots too.

1:58 I KNEW JOHN LENNON WAS STILL ALIVE!!! Hes a battle bot dude, with end game!

This feels like endgame would have performed better this match without forks. Before breaking off Tantrum's forks, Endgame's forks prevented Endgame from hitting tantrum rather than the other way around and even after Breaking off Tantrum's forks, Tantrum could pin Endgame by leveraging Endgame's forks against them

[smithyblue]

This was a good rematch. Tantrum tanked this hits and still carried on, End-Game’s forks were the main factor in the fight.

[WonderboyWDE]

Tantrum is just mad fast around the box! I mean, i knew it was pretty quick and agile but there at about 30 seconds left in the match when they were zipping around looking for an angle to hit End Game from the sides maybe, you could see just how extremely fast that bot is. Great driving on it too. Excellent driving skills there.

@Discovery, you might want to edit the "About Battlebots" section in the description box. Battlebots is not about the traditions of craft whiskey... but I bet many traditions involving "drinks" were enjoyed after each night's taping. 🙂

ok i kinda can get behind the for complaints from a meta/entertainment perspective (kind of, it's a complicated issue) but everyone acting like either bot would have done better without the forks is like the equivalent of the crowd that thinks an F-86 Sabre could beat an F-22A because they somehow acquired the notion that missiles don't work.

we *saw* what happens when you lose the ground game with Tantrum losing its forks and ramping right into the blade. things were slow because they were evenly matched, not because forks somehow made it harder to hit the other.

[Goodvibrations-Impickingup]

Is this a rerun? I’ve seen it before today

[chrisnizer]

Definitely prefer BattleBots over Robot Wars. They really get to scrappin' on BattleBots.

[TripSoul]

Ladies & gentlemen the 3 judges at arenaside have turned in a 27-18 decision for the blue square, END GAME!

[metal--babble]

Tantrum should just drive in circles, and win every match without ever touching their opponents

[FJX]

Tantrum will always go down as the bot that got a free ride to the championship.

[jeepdude]

End Game has a weakness. It lifts its left side when trying to rapidly turn right. Tantrum’s speed could have taken advantage of this.

[johncrabtree]

Like to see this version of endgame go against prime biteforce they are so similar

[sweetrocks]

PLEASE post Riptide vs. Hypershock, easily the best fight of world championship 7
