  • Power Rankings: Week 1

    Power Rankings: Week 1

    Here we go… 1) End Game (1-0) Robots I’d like to see go against End Game, and I think would have a shot to win: Uppercut (I think Uppercut has a more powerful weapon and would win easy. But I also went 2-5 in week 1, so) Huge (the anti-vertical spinner robot) Bloodsport (the rematch!) […]

    Week 1 Recap Part 2: Slash and Burn

    The theme of this Week’s Recap is “Everyone Has Bad Days”. Both in past and present. Hydra is allowed to have a bad day where their flipper breaks by itself(? still waiting on the autopsy for this one) and loses quickly and they are still Hydra, a top seed and obvious contender for the Giant […]

    Week 1 Recap Part 1: It’s Over

    Well, that’s the end of that. I experienced a sudden moment of trepidation right as the fight was starting. After picking Tombstone to win without giving the matchup more than ten second’s of thought (and even now I think my analysis was correct!), something about the editing and framing of the match, along with Mr […]

    Week 1 Picks:           The Match of the Century

    It’s here! It’s finally here!!! One of the Traditions I pointed out earlier in the week has remained in place, with Sawblaze competing in the first fight of the season. Three years running! It’s an inexplicable tradition (as far as I know), he didn’t do anything to earn this honor besides being genuinely excellent year […]

    2021* Season Winner Prediction: The Age of Durability

    Here I will make my pick for the Champion of the 2021* Battlebots season. This year it’s more than just a pick. It’s part of an overall larger statement for the current season, a prediction about the state of the robot fighting ecosystem and what trait might be most desirable in the present. Traditionally it […]

    Battlebots Traditions

    Sawblaze will fight in the inaugural match of the season, the first fight of the first episode (Win!) Tombstone fights in the main event of the first episode (Used to be a Win, now not sure!) Duck starts off the season 2-0 and somehow misses the playoffs. Minotaur finds itself in a hole early in […]

    Power Rankings: PreSeason 2021

    Note: Power Rankings are meant to be current representation of the field so they have an extreme recency bias. At this point in time the 2020 Playoffs has the largest impact on the analysis, after that would be the 2020 regular season, then the 2019 playoffs and 2019 regular season, etc (at this time Bounty […]

    Welcome

    Welcome to the Battleblog. I’m not sure there’s another blog covering Battlebots out there, I certainly haven’t found it. Thus I am tempted to call this the premier and preeminent Battlebots Blog, but there’s no need to tread on anyone’s toes or trigger unnecessary attention. This site is about passion for the sport and providing […]
