      No, this was debatably Hydra messing with the rules. I'm not sure that cow catcher of theirs legitimately counts as a weapon since it doesn't appear to have any movable parts. I'd need the rulebook Battlebots was using to be sure, but a raw pushbot isn't allowed, it's gotta have some moving part that functions as a weapon.
      The real HUGE vs. WIDE fight happened with Smeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee(...) I believe they had a matchup, and I'm honestly not sure who won.

      @@harleymitchelly5542 It's definitely not against the rules otherwise they would have had some reprocussions like when Complete Control put the net on Ghost Raptor in one of the earlier seasons.
      And I'm almost certain they didn't fight because Smeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is a rookie and there were 3 pre-tournament matches for each bot, and I specifically remember Huge fought Mammoth, Hydra, and Kraken.

      @@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 I don't think it was this season. I'm fairly sure it happened at some point though, I can recall those two going at it in a "freak fight."
      The problem, and it really does come down to what the rulebook actually is because I've seen citations of the rules in comments sections, is whether or not Hydra's cow catcher counts as a weapon. I thought all bots needed a weapon, and that a weapon only counts if it can do damage independent of the bot's motion. Unless Hydra's got something moving on it, its status as a weapon is under question.
      Of course... all that is predicated on me thinking of the applicable set of rules, which I don't know if I'm applying or not.

      @@harleymitchelly5542 The flipper is the weapon. The thing is that it didn't do any damage in the fight.
      If I had to guess the reason they won the judges decision is that I think the small amount of damage that Huge took from the pulverizer was enough for 2 of the judges to justify giving Hydra at least 1 point for damage. And I'm pretty sure Huge didn't get any points for agression or control because frankly it wasn't allowed to do anything

    The strategy to overcome this for Huge is if they see someone prepping a bot with this catcher, simply cut a notch out of one of your spare wheels. One they start hemming you in, the notch lines up with the bar and it slips down bringing their spinner close enough to nail that bar and then it's all over. Foolproof? Not completely. But it is an answer for the future.

Fights like this aren't common at all, huge, the bot with the big wheels, is probably the most unconventional bot on the show, and relies on its wheels to stay above the opponents weapon, while still hitting them with the large spinning bar in the middle.

      @@PandaFan2443 This. The main point of HUGE's design is literally built for timeouts did they not have a vertical spinner, because of their absurd chassis height and ability for their wheels to take a beating. Flipper bots are basically fucked if they aren't Bronco and launch their whole body into the air to hit HUGE, and even then the wheels take most of the impact on landing. Hydra played it the only way they could, and simultaneously the most effective way they could because of HUGE's design oversight. Comparing it to Gabriel in Robot Wars, Gabriel could at least never worry about not being able to attack because it was a thwackbot with a long ass arm. Granted, it was arbitrary attacks, but it still helps in judges decision, the point of the design.
