Post Episode Discussion: Battlebots World Championship VII Episode 6

BIG contrast here between two noteworthy teams. Ripperoni freed End Game when they could have sat back and taken the win easily. In the finals last season, Witch Doctor moved around the box far away from Minotaur for almost 90 seconds while complaining that the judges were not counting their opponent out. They complained and avoided rather than engaging and fighting. After 30 seconds they should have realized a countout was not coming, but they waited until the last 5 seconds before delivering one measly hit. It was one of the most cringeworthy performances I have seen since I started to watch the show. It’s nice to see a team like Ripperoni that charges forward, unafraid. That is what being a winner is all about!

I am behind Anna and her team all the way this season. They have a great bot and great heart. They are here to give it their all and have fun doing it.
