And that's what I love about the Fight Card format. Because it's not just about winning, it's about putting on a show to impress the Selection Committee. What they'll see from this is Ripperoni taking a free shot when it had the chance, and it's willingness to show aggression and cause damage. So this win looks very strong indeed.
The after-game interview: "When End Game got stuck in the floor, what did you think?" "WE GOTTA HIT 'EM! GIVE 'EM THE PIZZA!" Really love the energy from this team. Sure, they took a few free hits at End Game while they were stuck, but they deserved to get a little punishment for that insane fork meta they're banking on.
@@bachaddict yeah, they were taking so much damage. Wonder if a future plan would be to also make that wheel hard rubber the same as the other side. If they even have the weight to do that
I was honestly yelling at the tv for them to just leave it but they clearly wanted some action and it paid off. Fair play to them. They seem like a lovely team.
@@Kurse_of_Kall Just changes over time regarding spinning weapons, the rules are nebulous on exactly what is allowed for spinning weapons with, some horizontal weapons have been banned and little innovation in them has been seen for years, where ever year new and more effective variant of vertical spinners show up.
Outstanding win and outstanding sportsmanship from Ripperoni! They'll be earning a lot of respect from thousands of Battlebots fans. If there were to be a sportsmanship award for the season, I'd really like to give it to the Ripperoni team.
The part that impressed me the most is RIPeroni being able to have "controlled movement" by limping using the gyro effect from its weapon. That's some nice driving.
Ripperoni is actually a pretty good design, despite what you might think from its odd shape. If you can pilot it correctly, you can use it to attack using the left side primarily, with the less vulnerable wheel, and manage to use the entire bot almost like a funnel to shove almost any shape into that wicked blade. A really innovative asymmetrical design that seems to have a lot of potential.
I did not expect End Game to make such a fatal mistake out of the gate! Look at the damage that was dealt to End Game, like the chassis has chunks missing, is surely to have cracked and it's virtually warped; that shows how much energy is behind RIPperoni. It's a fun eclectic design but has serious aggression behind it!
Tbh, using long forks like they did also hardly ever works while trying to drive either. Someone always gets stuck in the saws, and while Ripperoni was showing sportsmanship and engaging anyway, others use this as a way to say "ha ha, sucker, you're stuck now and I'm gonna win by default!". Sure, the forks can keep others away from your front, but let's be real: With spinners like EG, you want to hit the back. :P But MAN, those weapon on weapon blows!
0:22 I love that this fight went the way it did, while RIPperoni had literal plastic utensil forks taped to the front of the robot. End Game could learn a thing or two.
The fact Endgame got taken down by their own forks after RIPperonni made fun of them for having forks is perfect. Great to see Endgame humbled and can’t imagine a better way for it to happen.
That turn Ripperoni makes at 1:46. 👨🍳💋👌 They've got such an amazing concept, and it's beautiful to see it working. No robot with a vertical disc that size should be able to turn that fast.
Good move by the Battlebots team here to upload the GOOD fights from the current season, they used to upload the left overs which were better than nothing but weren’t going to attract new fans to the sport easily
God I forgot about that. It was so hard to show any friends any battlebots content because all they would find on UA-cam were embarrassing short fights. Now there's great previews to share. Brilliant addressing of feedback from the show
Glad to see RIP got its counter rotation flywheel working. I thot' after last time it was a flawed design since the flywheel was not in close alignment with the weapon, but seems all is good.
Yep, last time the flywheel it doesn't started up and the robot was completely unstable. This time it really kept the wheels on the ground the most of the time.
Ripperoni's flywheel was working fine at the start of the last match. Something just went wrong on early on. In this fight, I think they actually turned it off to help them move with only one functioning wheel.
You're getting a lot of conflicted stories but I heard that their flywheel used too much battery so they turned it off, and in this fight they had it at a lower power so the bot would go the whole match
I heard they turned it off in the Gruff match because they wouldn't be stable anyway with the bent support/wedge/third point of contact (Kenny points that damage out well) and would only bounce on the spinner more often with the flywheel on, so they went full crazy and hoped for some random chaotic hits. As far as I know it was on the entire fight against End Game.
Absolutely love Ripperoni. Could have easily won by a complete fluke, but chose to make a fight of it, despite knowing they were fighting one of the best robots around, and then after all that still won.
RIPperoni went from discount Uppercut (losing to Gruff, a B-class bot, isn't impressive considering their build being primed to smack that kind of bot) to a legit sportsbot is the most epic thing they did.
To those people saying killsaws are boarderline useless, Now we know they are the counter to excessive front fork spam Always amusing when one of those fork spamming backfires
Maybe some of the other teams will reconsider using stupidly oversized forks now, considering they were the downfall of the champion of champions? We can only hope.
Forks it's an overused meta. And when people finds out the correct counter it's going to fall just like horizontal spinners did last decade. I still remember when Megabyte was 3 years undefeated in Robogames
The counter is likely going to be bots like Fusion who have both vertical and horizontal weapon systems (or a weapon system that can switch on the fly between them). I don’t know if Fusion has what it takes for this season, but I’m betting whichever bot wins the next championship it’ll be that type of design
@@nodsib to me the actual counter are drums. We've seen that with Minotaur and Riptide did something similar with Mad Catter. Use your weapon to clean the floor from forks is the way to go, but you must have a weapon that have the reach for it, not like Witch Doctor's twin disc.
I have never screamed harder watching a battlebots match. So ripperoni actually looks promising finally. I had them winning this fight because of a spoiler from the trailer where I saw one of the big hits but still a massive suprise nonetheless. End game getting it's forks stuck was unfortunate but it isn't a reason to unstick unlike some people's thoughts as that was a fault of the driver not not the other robots plus the fight can sorta still continue wether the other robot wants to continue the fight (which they did ,great sportsmanship) And ya rip is probably gonna make it into the tournament with this win alone and what they could possibly do to other robots next and that 1-1 record still looks really good. I have alot of expectations for rip to tear hyjinx apart with not much issue and copperhead depends on its weapon reach so I have rip going 2-2 or 3-1
super impressive to actually fight and still win.....I'm sorry but I bet a lot of us would've just taken the KO right at the start of the match. No damage to your bot and just prep for next round. ha ha but bravo to the rookies, that was awesome
LET 'ER RIPP(eroni)!! Like others said, I liked how sure, they could've won the easy way by leaving EG stuck, but to see Ripp prevail in the end with brute force was all the more satisfying. I was hyped for this Bot and this fight, and I'm so glad they won! If this fight wasn't "Fight of the Week", it had better been Tantrum vs Hydra. I'm ready for another pizza night with Ripperoni! :D While they deliver the punches, I may have a pizza delivered to my house. :P
a upset, next level sportsmanship which was tantamount to suicide, undeterred courage to go head to head, riperoni was even winning before the count out. take your flowers mate
I have a feeling there are several reasons roboteers rarely leave their opponents stuck. Sportsmanship, yes, but winning that way doesn't make a statement, either. You won by a fluke, big deal. It doesn't increase your image nor does it make for an interesting fight. Ripperoni took a risk freeing the former champ, and I feel like they had more to gain than lose in doing so. Even if they lost, they would provide an interesting fight. But against all odds, they hit the jackpot. Ripperoni still won, and they won their way. They beat a former champion in a close fight and made a true statement. This robot is a potential dark horse, now.
Yes indeed. Ripperoni could have just left End Game and won. Which would have been amusing. But with End Game being stuck, they basically had a clear advantageous chance at some lethal blows. Also, winning via knockout is much more impressive to the committee and audience than winning by chance.
They got 2 free hits, but end game was "fine" after They got a good fight going after that, probably could have gone the 3 minutes I could see they winning it even without the hole situation
In the end it's not just the bland winning , this is meant to have sparks fly and pieces stuck in the fokin protection glass that's the real fun respect for them not dropping them early
Kudos to the rookies their team looks so happy to even be there. Super cool of them to take the chance and take a shot on their opponents even tho they had a tko which let the match go a little longer.
End Game actually came back with vengeance right before it stopped moving and had RIPperoni sort of on the ropes there. I'm gonna say that if they weren't too damaged from that one frame splitting free hit when they got stuck in the killsaw slot, RIPperoni would have had no chance in this fight.
@@Pseudoscience-is-a-scam They were moving fine but it was a matter of time before the split sections warped enough from subsequent impacts and driving to cause the wheels to lock up or get high-centered.
Why does this remind me of End Game vs Death Roll, just a seemingly unkillable force practically outliving End Game. But this was much more one sided with that major driving mistake right out of the gate. An amazing underdog win and makes me love those somehow invincible giant verts like Death Roll and now RIPperoni (I’ll even add Emulsifier to that list for that performance against Fusion) Makes me want to see what would happen if you made them all clash in the box
The Incredibles 2004 End Game Vs Ripperoni Death Roll Vs Switchback Captain Shrederator Vs Hijinx Jackpot Vs Rotator Big Dill Vs Skorpios Banshee Vs Valkyrie Main Event Hydra Vs Tantrum
Rip could have left End Game right at the start, and won. Good sportsmanship to get him unstuck at the beginning. I love underdog wins !!
Unsticking was so risky for them. I like to think it's because they are such showmen and didn't want to short-change the audience
And that's what I love about the Fight Card format. Because it's not just about winning, it's about putting on a show to impress the Selection Committee.

@@thedman1696 incredibly lucky endgame died when it did, RIP's wheel was coming off and I think they'd be dead after one or two more hits
@@bachaddict yeah, they were taking so much damage.
Wonder if a future plan would be to also make that wheel hard rubber the same as the other side.
If they even have the weight to do that
great sportsmanship by ripperoni coulda just waited for endgame to get counted out but they made the fight go on
I was honestly yelling at the tv for them to just leave it but they clearly wanted some action and it paid off. Fair play to them. They seem like a lovely team.
I would think that team endgame would have preferred to have less damage to repair.
Endgame went from virtually unbeatable, to being taken down by basically stubbing his toe.
Taking about achilleas heals
It's similar to how Tombstone was near undefeated only to be get high centered in the last season before the rules did him in.

Agreed. Best part.

They should have a sportsmanship prize, would be a cool thing to recognize!
This fight was objectively a fluke.
They do and it was given to Rory Mangle of Monsoon

I was amazed by how fast it naturally self rights
Only thing is they need a little more protection on the wheels break to easily other than that its a amazing and beautiful bot

In battlebox, pizza eats you)
Rennie: touches pizza on wrong end
Rennie: rolls pizza but on wrong side

Pizza eats ypu, and with forks
And End Game deserved that loss! This is why my dad and I hated End Game: they were f!&king arrogant and always wear shades indoors!
0:22 I love that this fight went the way it did, while RIPperoni had literal plastic utensil forks taped to the front of the robot. End Game could learn a thing or two.
Never even noticed that hahaha it's a literal meme bot that won against world champs
The hilarious thing is that more forks were left on Ripperoni than on Endgame by the end
RIPperoni😭😂😂 gg!
The fact Endgame got taken down by their own forks after RIPperonni made fun of them for having forks is perfect.
Great to see Endgame humbled and can’t imagine a better way for it to happen.
@@superymariowest2403 I wouldn't say RIPperoni is a meme bot. It's a legit design they just gave it a funny paint job and name
Fastest Pizza delivery ever... under 3 minutes .
I loved the trash talk with Endgame eating pizza with forks as they walked in and RIP adding plastic forks to their bot!
Endgame was a champion until now
Rest in Pepperoni
That turn Ripperoni makes at 1:46. 👨🍳💋👌 They've got such an amazing concept, and it's beautiful to see it working. No robot with a vertical disc that size should be able to turn that fast.
soooo satisfying to see the off-meta truly mad scientist builds winning this season
does the off-center disk help with that? i wonder if it helps neutralize some of gyroscopic force
@@adrianw.8410 Yep. That's it exactly. It's got an armoured flywheel spinning counter to their weapon.
crazy upset! Getting stuck is kinda expected using forks. Great show, great season
A lot more expectable if you use the biggest forks in your arsenal.
They need something to prevent them from going lower than a certain level so they don't go down a hole. XD
@@christopherrogers532 if they do that they're going to loose their main weapon: the ground clearance.

I for one would just like to say, Pizza
Absolutely love Ripperoni. Could have easily won by a complete fluke, but chose to make a fight of it, despite knowing they were fighting one of the best robots around, and then after all that still won.
Getting Deep Six vs Smeeeeeeeee vibes when End Game got caught in the Killsaw slots there.
Legend has it... pineapple was involved 😂
When I saw this fight I really knew it's gotta be the fight of the week. The best upset since Which Doctor vs Red Devil happened.

To those people saying killsaws are boarderline useless,
Now we know they are the counter to excessive front fork spam
Always amusing when one of those fork spamming backfires
Hard agree. I always thought excessive forking was a cheap tactic. It's nice to see that there is a downside/risk to using it.
It's amusing that it wasn't the killsaws original purpose but how it ultimately became a fork countermeasure.
I'm so glad it didn't happen, but it woulda been hilarious if the fight just ended with End Game getting stuck 2 seconds into the match
bro said "it's dinner time," most intimidating words to be spoken
instant fan of RIPperoni
The driver in the Wario Pizza Chef outfit won me over instantly, lol
Not only did Ripperoni beat Endgame, they convincingly beat them.
PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA!
Ripperoni is now officially my favorite “joke bot”
it's not really a joke though, the setup is for quick turns and it works
Talk about a humongous upset! Who'd thought a pizza could take down a Golden Bolt winner!?
*and Giant Nut winner
It like endgame just went and sat at the table waiting for a slice.
RIPperoni is like the Miami Dolphins of the Battlebots instead of Uppercut.

Very good battle and it's nice to see underdogs pull off an upset even though I like endgame.
One of the biggest upsets in Battlebots history
Still much respect. Ripperoni gained so much respect from that they probably have several teams helping them now.
Just found out about RIPperoni a couple days ago. Already they're my new favorite team and bot!

What a wholesome 'sport' 😊
Pizza! Pizza! RIPperoni just defeated End Game!!
That was AWESOME !
Quite possibly the biggest upset in battlebots.
why did he had to go with those long forks?
Riperoni. What an awesome bot
Wasn't the right wheel the problem with another fight as well? Maybe it's a good idea to switch it for a small one.
Endgame was cocky about this fight. Ripperoni dominated this fight! 🍕
This is very ironic, considering End Game themselves was saved because Gruff got stuck in the killsaws, back in S4
Ripperoni won twice, amazing sportsmanship
Why does this remind me of End Game vs Death Roll, just a seemingly unkillable force practically outliving End Game. But this was much more one sided with that major driving mistake right out of the gate.
