The builders did an incredible job raising the bar to a completely new level of imagination, skill and, frankly, violence. "Thursday night robot fighting action's back and better than ever!"īattleBots founder and CEO Edward Roski (Trey) said, "This year's World Championship was the most exciting ever, and the battles are beyond amazing. "Delighted to kick off the new year and welcome viewers back into the BattleBox with 14 all-new episodes filled with some of the most intense bot battles we've ever seen," said Scott Lewers, EVP Multiplatform Programming Discovery Factual & Head of Content, Science.
After missing the 2020 season, Blacksmith, Minotaur, DUCK! and Icewave make their triumphant returns to wage war against fan favorites Witch Doctor, SawBlaze, Hydra, Whiplash and Valkyrie, but only one will be crowned the top bot in the world. Former title holder Tombstone returns to the BattleBox. Rivals meet again, more determined than ever to be victorious. Will they succeed, or will the trophy find a new home in Europe, Asia or South America? New Zealand's End Game currently has the trophy, but teams from the USA are determined to bring it back to America. Each night a vicious lineup of bots battle for their lives in the iconic BattleBox but only the toughest will live to see the next round. More than 60 teams travel to Las Vegas for a chance to take home the greatest prize in the sport: The Giant Nut. This season, bots from around the globe descend upon Las Vegas for a battle to the death in the new season of BATTLEBOTS returning to Discovery on Thursday, January 6 at 8 PM ET/PT. Aggressive and powerful driving with effective wedging really won this match.Who's ready for a Sin City showdown? BATTLEBOTS, the world's premier robot fighting competition, is back and more ferocious than ever. Once Sawblaze was able to get to the sides of Whiplash then is was very quick to cut into the top armour and take out the drive of Whiplash. It was great to see the rapid adaptation to the driving and attacking style of Whiplash when it became clear that Sawblazes wedges where always going to get under Whiplash.īut Jamison Go was always on the attack and did not give Whiplash more than a couple of seconds to recover and it was always going to be Sawblazes fight. However Matthew realised that while being pushed from behind that Whiplash would be able to use its weapon as an overhead saw the same as Sawblaze and managed 3 or so hits on the top of Sawblaze. Jamison repeatedly drove Whiplash into the walls but seemed to wait for a pin before using the saw. After both robots attempted to manoeuvre around each other and then made a couple of head-on attacks it became clear that the tall armour also allowed Sawblaze to win the wedge game. I was a little doubtfull of these as the tall armour would only protect from a head-on attack. The idea is that these will counter the overhead saw of Sawblaze. When the robots are revealed a point is made of Whiplashes tall vertical front armour plates. I was looking forward to this match with my prediction being Whiplash to win.
Matthew Vasquez of Whiplash is not as aggressive but has excellent situational awareness and is able to quickly take advantage of any weakness that his opponent shows while accounting for any problems with his own robot. Jamison Go has a very aggressive driving style with Sawblaze constantly ramming opponents to push them into walls and pin them. Both Sawblaze and Whiplash are very well driven and very reliable.
