Yeah. Huge props to their team, they got it dialed in well this year. Can't wait to see what happens when it takes on one of the more destructive bots though.
Crazy stuff. Just shows that robot fighting is an ever evolving sport. It's so solid right now it actually performs like they hoped. First season bot was pretty floppy :D
I mean, it was wrecking Bite Force in their fight, only loosing due to not enough time for repairs, after they got destroyed by ICEwave. Huge was always a good bot, simply unlucky with their oponents.
Huge is a matchup bot, it has fantastic ones and terrible ones with nothing inbetween, its success is largely dependent on what it gets to fight. So is Starchild, though one of its terrible matchups happens to be Huge. Starchild being an untested rookie aside, Huge's season was much easier- Shatter can't reach it, Blip can't flip it, Starchild can't hit it and Fusion caught on fire. Meanwhile Starchild got Overhaul that can grab it, Mammoth that can flip it, a functioning horizontal spinner that drops bigwheels and Huge which it can't hit. Swap their schedules and Huge goes 2/2 while Starchild gets at least one win.
@@TheLaXandro Tbf Huge did demolish the best version of Fusion we have seen yet. Fusion's design only fails because it's operating on 200% power constantly...but it is a deadly robot when it works. It did go head to head with Witch Doctor so there is some merit to Huge actually working this year. Starchild landed less than 10 hits it's entire career.
@@sebastianriz4703 oh of course, Starchild is a fundamentally inferior design to Huge. Even if it functioned perfectly, it is much harder to use and much more limited in its gameplan for no real benefit and loses out on a lot of opportunities as a result. Its weapon's area of influence is much smaller and can't be held, it can't have a heavy weapon because then it wouldn't be able to thwack, it can't move and use its weapon at the same time or use its weapon as defense/intimidation, it can't switch weapon direction to alternate between overheads and uppercuts like Huge can, it's all compromises. Just about the only thing that Starchild might have over Huge is that its main body is tankier, we've seen Huge split in half before and it looks like Starchild is much less succeptible to it, but the body being impossible to hit is kind of the main idea of bigwheels in the first place so its durability is largely redundant. Maybe if Starchild decides to ditch the thwack motion, make the weapon into a heavy drum and lead with it on the ground, it'll be a fun sidegrade to Huge and have tangible benefits over both it and regular drums. Better than another boring vert at least.
@@TheLaXandro I think Huge really proved itself in the bracket. Taking down Skorpios, Mad Catter, freaking Witch Doctor, Copperhead, and having an increadibly close finale with Sawblaze
props to starchild for keeping the fight going and not just let themselves get counted out when the fight was clearly over as most teams would have done. I guess they knew they wouldn't make the tournament so they might as well
Yep. They were going home after this match either way, so might as well try to see if they could get HUGE to choke on their corpse. A KO even by simply surviving long enough for HUGE to malfunction would still be worth bragging rights.
I have no idea what the driver of Starchild was trying to do. It got off on a good start, but later just flopped around for a big part of the fight. At one point it drove itself onto the screws.
At the very least, it was an outstanding display of durability that. When you take a step back and look at it post season, gotta at least be proud of that much. Even if the weapon wasn't very good, Huge's first season? Probably would have come apart at the seams if it was in star child's place
@@smashbother5684 Good start? Starchild is factually a bad design, that has been tried and failed over and over again. You never want a weapon that has an attack delay, the idea of having to set up the spot then flipping the whole thing over for a hit is just silly. Most hit opportunities are less than .5s. It takes Starchild over 1s to get it's attack off. Not even mentioning the precision needed to pull it's hit off. Any smaller bot just moves, which is exactly what happens in every other one of its' fights. The meta has been proven time and again, big F off vertical or horizontal spinners, built on a reliable chassis.
Poor guy at Starchild team looks absolutely devastated. Man that was a beating of note. When the wheel got damaged by the screws it was basically all over. From there on it was just torture.
@@sebastianriz4703 Good bot, but Huge got wicked lucky with his first hit. Disabling Fusions left wheel and pretty much left it a sitting duck. Also while splitting it into two weapons you lose power and weight that could go into a single one. Although you do have a better chance if one goes down, you give up that massive power that Huge used to win that fight
@@ku8721 Agreed but you do have something wrong about Fusion's design. It's not using one full powered motor to operate both weapons. It's using two separate full power motors to operate each weapon individually. It's why if one goes out, the other is operational but it's also why Fusion has a lot of reliability issues. It's using 200% power to run optimally. Still. Even with the lucky shot, Huge absolutely destroyed Fusion in that fight. It never stopped.
@@sebastianriz4703 No my point still stands as you lose the weight from the second motor and weapon that you could have used on the main weapon giving it more power. Not saying that is a bad setup... if you lose one. But you'll never get the same kinetic energy behind a hit like Tombstone, Huge, or Bloodsport. Yeah Fusion couldn't move after that first hit! Huge took advantage. Real easy to hit someone when they're down. Not saying that went too far like some other people with Riptide and Captain Shrederator. I think both those fights were fine, but in both those fights an early big hit incapacitated the bot and the other team went for blood.
I think the main issue for Starchild is its own wheels get in the way of its weapon due to the weapon just not coming out far enough. Make it come out further and rotate independently of the rest of the core and it should do fine.
I don't think I have ever seen the box as messy as it was at the end of the fight. Pieces of Starchild, a piece or two of HUGE, pieces of itself... THAT was a cleanup job there.
Starchild is in no way a copy of Huge, they have entirely different weapon systems an attack techniques. If anything, Starchild is more like a copy of Gabriel, but even then, Gabriel never had a spinner.
They're both derivatives of British heavyweight Gabriel, a big-wheel thwackbot. Jonathan Schultz has frequently mentioned Gabriel as HUGE's obvious design inspiration during interviews and BB always edits it out for some reason. Can't acknowledge the existence of other competitions I guess 🙄
Starchild on the other hand... It's near impossible to hit your opponent with that weapon. And once the tail breaks (like it did here) it can't even spin up anymore. I don't have high hopes for this one but i hope they prove me wrong.
Nope still a joke, just got really lucky this year with easy early matchups. Don't get me wrong I understand that the size and angle give it a slight advantage vs some bots, but the wheels being that open have cost them more fights than they've won.
Starchild is in no way a copy of Huge, they have entirely different weapon systems an attack techniques. If anything, Starchild is more like a copy of Gabriel, but even then, Gabriel never had a spinner.
The design is pretty useless imo. They took the worse part of Huge, which is their mobility. The difference is that Huge has a very effective weapon when it lands. Meanwhile Starchild uses the most useless weapon system that not only is hard to hit anything, it also barely makes any damage.
Personally I'm not sure a weapon of that low a weight class is going fair well in a field this good even if they could hit shots, which they can't right now outside of accidents. It's one thing for sawblaze who can also bully people around the box indefinitely and get clean shots. Another thing entirely for a flail attacker like starchild. That weapon will be non operational 9/10
@@CharliMorganMusic From what I can see, the support plastic tail that keep the weapon from hitting the ground needs to be redesigned. It sometimes blocks what would have been a clean hit on a target. Maybe it'll actually work if they fix that.
I can't imagine the feeling of putting your heart and pride into building something only to watch it get torn apart and cling desperately to life right before your eyes.
I haven't followed at all for this season, but i'm so happy that Huge has gotten their due! After the 1st year, i've been a *HUGE* fan, and am so glad to see them getting so far in the ranks.
I believe Huge wasn't much better than Starchild in its first season. Heck, I remember Huge being split in half! Starchild just needs to improve their bot and driving style, and practice a lot! After that, Huge will have some stiff competition!
Its a good idea to have so much ground clearance that most bots can't reach your main frame. But those wheels are still just giant targets, and Starchild showed us exactly why. Huge has definitely come a long way over their years and improved the design, but until they find a really good way to reinforce those wheels, or even somehow make it dangerous for other bots to target them- it will be an ever present weak spot on both sides to be exploited.
Also that time Gigabyte disintegrated in midair compliments of Shockwave. And back in the day there were some unique but fragile bots like Radioactive and Counter-Revolution that got annihilated by Tombstone.
I'm conflicted on Starchild. On one hand, I want to see a variety of designs in the Battlebox. On the other hand, I don't want to see something that's just going to get humiliated every time. I can see it using its mobility and unusual weapon coverage to take someone by surprise, but it _has_ to put something in the win column next season. The best place to start would be the wheels... it's a bad sign when the easiest-to-hit part is the most vulnerable!
They seem to have the same wheel issues that HUGE! had when it started out, it's possible that they need to use a different material for them. It doesn't help that Starchild's weapon doesn't scale up to the 250 weight class all that well.
“First of all, I am HUUUUUUGE. Second of all, you’re not HUUUUUUGE.” Third of all, you wanna be HUUUUUUUGE but you can’t be HUUUUUUUUGE because I’m HUUUUUUGE”
2 intreaging ideas. Wonder if there a chance for a flipper version or piston fliper like old school firestorm from. Uk. The amount of leverage the big boys would have be crazy
I loved watching this battle, and I didn't even appreciate how much damage huge did until after the battle and seeing star childclose up. That was just like 🤯
This match really shows the flaw in Starchild's design compared to Huge. While Huge has that big saw right in the middle to deal damage, Starchild has a much smaller weapon that needs to be flipped to be used. However with how breakable the wheels are, their main weapon has been useless this season and it just seems like a flawed design.
I think the tail needs to be longer so Starchild can actually swing that thing and land some hits. I'm not sure how strong it actually is cus of how few times its actually been able to hit anything
That was more like an execution than an actual fight. But Props to both teams. Never thought that this design could prove to persist. And bonus points to Starchild: you may took a beating, but you fought till the end, and the damages dindt seem as bitter as the fact the bot was completely imobilized.
It has potential. By swinging its whole body into the opponent, they've essentially got a hammer that's *far* beyond regulation weapon weight. They just need to get better at actually landing hits with it.
Starchild has to change their weapon, have they ever made a good hit? Right now its like they have a small axe/hammer which dosnt do anything. Unnecessary weight of the weapon system which brakes anyway, keep it simple. How about a 1,5-2,5m morning star (maybe adjustable before a fight or try and error) with 5 thick spikes + more grip to the wheels. And implement stronger motors, can hit from above when fast enough or contrarotating the motors like it would swing the morning star all the time.
Always a great show but it really goes over the top when these big machines do battle. Starchild looked like it took a couple trips through a paper shredder...after being chewed up by a crocodile. 🐊
I used to think huge was a horrible idea that would always get wrecked, but it looks like the team improved their build for a 4-0 season!
Yeah. Huge props to their team, they got it dialed in well this year. Can't wait to see what happens when it takes on one of the more destructive bots though.
Crazy stuff. Just shows that robot fighting is an ever evolving sport. It's so solid right now it actually performs like they hoped. First season bot was pretty floppy :D
Sometimes you have to think bigly out of the box
I mean, it was wrecking Bite Force in their fight, only loosing due to not enough time for repairs, after they got destroyed by ICEwave. Huge was always a good bot, simply unlucky with their oponents.
it isnt the best design, but it gets wins

Team Starchild must work on their offensive weapon system. Seriously.
They really looked devastated at the end. But there was a lot of heart in that bot, it didn't let them down. DON'T GIVE UP, team,.
I think that Starchild's weakness is that its design can either drive, or attack, but not both at the same time.
Its tail is too short.

@@RennieAsh ooo I didn't see them !!! :o
@@brunocorrea2854 ok 😂
@@RennieAsh I watched every Battle on the channel* :D
I love watching those wheels get destroyed. Something oddly satisfying about it.
just so soothing
This match really shows the flaw in Starchild's design compared to Huge. While Huge has that big saw right in the middle to deal damage, Starchild has a much smaller weapon that needs to be flipped to be used. However with how breakable the wheels are, their main weapon has been useless this season and it just seems like a flawed design.
I think the tail needs to be longer so Starchild can actually swing that thing and land some hits. I'm not sure how strong it actually is cus of how few times its actually been able to hit anything
That was more like an execution than an actual fight.
But Props to both teams. Never thought that this design could prove to persist. And bonus points to Starchild: you may took a beating, but you fought till the end, and the damages dindt seem as bitter as the fact the bot was completely imobilized.
4:53
I never thought I would say, huge that was an amazing fight!
Starchild secures first position for the most useless weapon ever.
It has potential. By swinging its whole body into the opponent, they've essentially got a hammer that's *far* beyond regulation weapon weight. They just need to get better at actually landing hits with it.
No that goes to Duck's beak flipper.
@@sebastianriz4703or radioactive’s “axe”
As the relatively same design, Huge know exactly what is weakness of starchild.
Starchild has to change their weapon, have they ever made a good hit? Right now its like they have a small axe/hammer which dosnt do anything. Unnecessary weight of the weapon system which brakes anyway, keep it simple. How about a 1,5-2,5m morning star (maybe adjustable before a fight or try and error) with 5 thick spikes + more grip to the wheels. And implement stronger motors, can hit from above when fast enough or contrarotating the motors like it would swing the morning star all the time.
Real problem is the delay/lag time it takes to get the weapon over the top. Easy to see/avoid.
@@tmb1065 Indeed, its also no scary at all.
legendary commentary. so freaking good
Impressive performance by both teams.
Starchild : "come back coward, merely a flesh wond"
That was impressive!! HUUUUUUGE!!
Always a great show but it really goes over the top when these big machines do battle. Starchild looked like it took a couple trips through a paper shredder...after being chewed up by a crocodile. 🐊
Starchild made all the highlights. It's fun watching Battlebots wimpiest robot get destroyed.
Homie knew Starchild wasn't ever gunna see battlebots again so he let her get thrashed. Hope to see Brandon back.
Somebody help me:
At 7:21 - What exactly makes the glass come down?
I've watched it over and over... but I can't figure out what hits what... 🤔
Just before that some sparks fly off screen in that direction. Probably a shard of metal broken off Starchild that flies up and hits the light.
There looks to be some sort of metal washer on the floor just afterwards. That might have been it.
i believe it is a part from starchilds weapon mechanism i do not think it is the weapon though.
Wow, I was just commenting in another video where Huge was fighting, that I wondered who would win in a fight with Huge and Starchild, now I know.🤔😲😄
Was awesome!
