Mortician sounds absolutely menacing at full speed!
The event where there where already 3 breaches And at least 1 lightly injured Person?
The intro already sold me before even watching the vlog.
I like robogames and I think that having every single active weight class in combat robotics is nice. But, the amount of arena breaches is the heavyweights is not ok. I saw on discord that bunny got hit by a part of the arena. There was a corner piece that flew out out of the arena. There’s video of it. There was a picture of flames comming out of the arena. Yet David Caulkins Denys the fact that there was a single arena breach while there was multiple videos, pictures. He claims that they looked all over the arena and couldn’t find a single breach. There’s multiple pictures going around about the breaches. I’d say this. Remove the heavyweights or get a better arena. Someone is gonna get killed by one of these breaches.
I'm not surprised your voice is tired from announcing - you never seemed to take a break
I'm hearing a lot of negative stuff from Robogames this year, from the main arena not being safe to them straight up not having the right PPE to deal with lipo fires O-o It makes me concerned.
What a fantastic event! Something for everyone by the looks, competitors and spectators alike. Thanks so much for this!
This was my first time seeing bots larger than 3lbs fight, it was an amazing experience and well worth the trip. And being able to bring my own as a team with friends was the icing on the cake. Talking to all the bot builders jn the big bot pits was so cool and everyone was so nice!

Manta is freakin' terrifying. Also, great to see Ray mixing it up with Mortician in there. That bot has got some serious upgrades of late (those brushless motors mean it is every bit as powerful as Tombstone was at double its weight, though it still can't compare for stored kinetic energy).
Building Blight ended up being so much more work than I could have ever imagined. What I love about these leagues and communities for smaller bots, in addition to them making this sport so accessible to all, is everyone has an understanding of what goes into even the 150g and 1lb bots so everyone truly appreciates what everyone else has done. I've been burning the candle at both ends for weeks now, blowing through all my disposable income and bringing myself to the brink of insanity to have Blight ready for RSL this weekend. And heck I'm going to keep doing it because I love it. I love talking to everyone about bots and seeing what they've created. I love holding that finished bot and I love throwing it to it's or it's opponents doom in the cage. I'll never stop doing this. I love this community of ingenious bot builders, don't ever change!
I really want to go to one of these but I don't see that happening for a while unfortunately so this is awesome. Makes me want to go more after watching, from what I saw the people there are what make it so much fun
Goodness Mortician sounds like Minotaur
I love that robogames isn't just combat robots but all kind of different forms of robotics. Would be cool if they had some kind of FIRST or VEX side-competition as well.
pleese take over robogames from dave we need you to save this event before dave kills it
Comment for the algorithm
Spoiler for the end of Black jack’s run in part 2
