The Heat of Fusion! [Builder Blog Ep 53]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2024
- We are back in Wisconsin with one of Battlebots favorite teams! This time at the Whyachi Shop we are lead around by Team Captain Reese Ewert to explore the shop and take a deep dive into his robot, Fusion.
Fusion is quite the special robot, as it features not just one but TWO deadly spinning weapons! A horizontal AND a vertical spinner! Reese shows us the internals of Fusion and how he managed to pack in all of the "spaghetti" to get the robot to work. Lastly, Reese shows us many of the old Team Whyachi robots currently sitting on the shelf, like former champion Son of Whyachi, as well as many other creations hiding deep in their lab.
Many roboteers use custom parts made from Team Whyachi, but this is the first time you can see in video where the magic is made! If you're looking for components to build your Battlebot, check their shop at teamwhyachi.com
Follow our journey through Battlebots!
Tune In every Thursday night at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT on Discovery Channel

"welcome to MTV cribs..."
"This baby can fit a lot of spaghetti in it"
"This is what these jokers do all day. Stand here, watching me work."
"I'll do the tour because...I can't do interviews."
Zach: "Do you have any words you want to say to the fans?"
Reese: "No, Not really..."
"Being Eeyore and all, I'm pretty excited about having fans..."
We need a book entitled: 'The Wit and Wisdom of Reese Ewert' and we need it now!
Seriously he's such a great character.
I'd buy that in a heartbeat.
I wonder who could possibly illustrate such a book...
Reese is one of the funniest builders out there, and I’m glad to see him in this video because he had a lot of informative stuff to say!
I love Reese, deadpan delivery never fails to make me laugh
Hey! My 3D printed 1/4 scale SOW model made it on their trophy shelf! Very cool! (7:13)
Make more and sell them please i will buy one
I love team whyachi!!!
Same
I want Fusion to work next year. It was my dark horse after the Cobalt fight.
It’s a shame Fusion catches on fire in half its fights. Would love to see it compete at its peak all the time and not just occasionally.
because of Speed control...
Nice seeing Luke Ewert making an appearance, miss him on the show really.
Diana testing that ice reminded me of a cat 😂
These guys should run for president
Cool vid, never knew what to aspect from the Ewert family, but this was great.
Reese is the funniest builders I've ever seen.
As a member of a multiple beagle household I say: more Bugle!!!! :D
8:53 looking forward to the new and improved Fusion in Season 7!
The MTV cribs I never knew I needed! Reese is hilarious and I'm sending all my fangirl energy his way.
I also low-key want to see how much spaghetti fits in the incredible Fusion hat before it catches on fire for real.
Hope Reese enters this year, I need more interviews with him (preferably dissing Jake 🫣😂).
Reese is Wisconsin from concentrate, his deadpan is so hilarious. Always fun visiting the Ewert Clan.
Wisconcentrate
Love this guy. He's so chill. hope his next bot goes deep this year.
Returned after finding out Fusion won’t be here for Season 7 ;;
"*if* we enter next year" Really really really hope they do, and its been pretty worrisome to hear they're seriously not considering it, in both the the Hydra video and fusion. The Ewert clan always brings such high caliber competition, would be a huge detriment to lose any of their bots in the competition, let alone all of them. If it weren't for that judges decision I think hydra would've taken the Nut. even despite the new rules/arena hurting flippers.
*slaps roof of this video* This bad boy can fit so many memes. The freaking spaghetti memes, better than Trump, legen...dary! So many moments in this video had me laughing. All the Ewerts seem like hilarious guys.
I officially want a fusion hat now
Love these. Battlebots is always filled with such interesting people. When are you gonna do a giveaway for a hangout session with Skorpios and it's makers? 🤞
If he ever gets sick of battlebots he would be a natural at doing stand-up comedy
Great video!
"You have anything you wanna say to the fans?"
"Uh... No. Not really..."
And THAT'S why I'm a fan. Lmao
The end of the video is as Odd as how Subzero is from a Place where snowing is a natural disaster.
Yayyy more Whyachi! Great to see Warrior. It was very interesting bot.
Hydra and Fusion blast em up next BB season! Cant wait to see em working predictably and better. Hydra shouldve been awarded not Tantrum in their fight. Hydra moved around as much as he could considering the horrible floor and tactics wise almost had to stay in place due to Tantrum just running around and around wasting time.
Whats he supposed to do, go chasing after tantrum around the box? The judges are failing!!!
One day i hope skorpios would get another saw like one to cut through armor
Somebody get Reese some spaghetti. That man is hungry.
This was great, I even enjoyed Jake for a bit haha
I'm betting the idea for fusion came from the bottom of a few cold ones
I LOVE FUSION!
Love how they refer to their Dad as “The Old Man”
Hey... don’t know what the giveaway is for this week so I’ll just say Skorpios is a boss and can put the smack down on the champ Tantrum (which has already happened in the past). Hope I win whatever’s being given away!
Behind the fire
you can make a tv show around this family very funny people
Imagine Skorpios and Hydra joined forces to make one bot. Be like Skorpios with a flipper on the front!
So many people praised fusion after the cobalt fight. I guess that has been forgotten now
Really hope they get those speed controller issues worked out, Fusion is such a meta breaker I really want to see it working reliably
Ah, at 2:38 we got a leak of next season's Whyachi 'bot! Team Captain Pedro and his 3-inch Slab of Granite!
Fusion has so much potential, sad to see it almost always on fire
Got a pitch for ya, an alternative weapon for Skorpios: instead of a flat saw-disc, what if you used a shorter, stubbier disk similar to Tantrums? Might help in disorienting the opponent, plus it works thematically as a scorpion stinger as they’re usually kinda stubby. Just a suggestion, love the team and bot!
Must be nice having such a huge warehouse and shop dedicated to working on bots...
I just want fusion to steal the undercutter from rotator and then up it's fork game. The versatility of being able to take on forks or a wedge with the same but is something modern rotator does amazingly well, and I think fusion could do it better because their other side has a vert.
Really wanting to see falcon wd or sow for as 7
Man i miss So Many of these bots. Warrior clan, Falcon, and of course SOW. I wish i could just bring at least one of them back to life and back into combat. Probably either SOW or Warrior. SOW is just upright powerful, but the spin up could probably be fixed easily. Warrior is older, but still could probably do good today, just with forks of course.
Sorry about Fusion. I can take it off your hands, looks like you need more room.
I thought about Robert as soon as I seen than future massive shelf trophy. You deserve it!
Robert, how much does a bot like fusion cost?
I'm surprised Team Whyachi of all teams doesn't have a plasma cutter.
I love Fusion, but I really miss Son of Whyachi
HexBug had one job to make fusion hexbug😢
Wait Fusion is going to fight Ribbot in bounties? 6:16
Hydra beat them
Hey if I buy some merch would you be willing to sign it for me if I mail it out?
Message their fb and im sure you can work something out!
I never disliked fusion but did dislike hydra (after the bike rack) but do like Hydra again
Oh no wait for it you didnt
