I wasn't sad to see them beat me - there was no way I would have been able to fix Last Rites one more time! I'm just glad we got to spin a little bit - would have sucked otherwise - congrats to Matt on the win, and I'll be rebuilding for next year!
Tombstone is hands down the best robot to ever grace the floors of robot battles. For a while it got frustrating seeing it cleaned the floor with every opponent. You can't learn without failure.
Matt Berman this is good for you then! check out BattleBots on ABC Sunday nights at 9pm, and replays Saturday nights at 8pm battlebots.com/ abc.go.com/shows/battlebots
@Jerry11606 Last Rites has beaten Sewer Snake 3 times, and lost 6. Last Rites has beaten Original Sin 7 times, and lost 6. Original Sin has beaten Sewer Snake 9 times, and lost 2. Those three bots currently hold 3 of 4 spots on the all time HW record, and 3 of 4 spots on the current HW record. The truth is all 3 bots are always very close in competitions, and get referred to as "the big 3" quite often.
Im trying to think of something funny to say after mother thats not a insult toward mothers but also relating to a snake... *wait oh god i hate my 25% non family friendly mind*
sewer snake has quickly become one of my favorite bots since i found out about him, I hope you have more plans to bring him out in the future! There's something very satisfying about it
As Sewer Snake and Last Rites are not competing in 'Battlebots' (thus aren't under contract), I would welcome them as additions to 'Robot Wars' (especially as SS competed in the 2006 Roaming Robots Winter Championships, beating the likes of Ka-Pow and Storm 2).
Nice one! I'd heard it on one of the Combots videos, nice bit of trivia - thanks! Sewer Snake still wins in my book - I'd love to see Original Sin do some crazy robot breakdancing stunts! Seriously though, if (when!) there's another combots type tournament going off soon if some new event organisers are found, I'm going to have to fly over to the States to watch one year - there's some really fantastic robots over there!
I fucking love this sport. I can't believe Robot Wars was cancelled. It was the best hosted(Craig Charles),best layout, best organized and had the greatest fighters. It was perfect. Can you imagine if it was on today? With todays robots and technology? It would be AMAZING!!! They need to bring back a robot fighting show so these new bots can have some professional camera work and funding.
Don't quote me on this (I'm in the UK, I only follow what I can of the USA fights on CZcams :( ) but I think it's a reference to Original Sin because it's got a three-piece wedge or something - Original Sin also has something like 'I can has red tires?' on it as well which I think is again a reference to Sewer Snake :)
This really shows tombstone is pretty much lacking against wedgebots or flippers even to this day. If i forgot 2 broken wheels he didnot make any dmg to stinger
that's how is going to sound world destruction , and some similar to a black metal song it`s exciting this kind of battles, there are gamblers on this?
+mattmaxsr I feel like sewer snake is the bane of spinners, whether full body (megabyte), horizontal (last rites/tombstone {though you and Ray trade wins often}), and possibly vertical, but I don't have enough info yet. This is also the first match I've seen where a flamethrower was powerful enough to cause a knockout. My main question though. HOW do you get so much AGILITY + POWER + DURABILITY out of what seems to be a 6 wheel tank drive? not even original sins drive train is as good at taking damage without losing effectiveness as yours.
The flame was nice here but Ray had internal shorts happening not just flame damage. OS and SS use the same drive motors but not sure if the same gear ratio?! Our mobility is a little more robust with the center wheels always pushing even if we loose corner tires. Where as OS looses a corner tire he may now be dragging that corner!
That would be Ray Billings, and he's a legend in the sport. But even legends have upsets....just look at Lockjaw this year on Battlebots before the Desperado Tournament.
"I can has" This was a really cool build and I admired it, until I noticed that somebody thought it would be cute to apply a meme sticker to the back of it. If you're working with more then two people in your group, its safe to tell whoever applied the label to kindly refrain from doing any cosmetic additions, because they will inevitably create embarrassing displays.
I'm sorry you didn't like this one! But if you like these bar spinners, here's one you might like.... Tombstone Rays other bot. czcams.com/video/2mRTh3vIsug/video.html

So cool to find your comments under these videos :)
We get to see the new upgraded Tombstone soon
What a chad.
Tombstone is hands down the best robot to ever grace the floors of robot battles. For a while it got frustrating seeing it cleaned the floor with every opponent. You can't learn without failure.
I was more excited watching this than any field sport. I need to find more of these.

mattmaxsr So I just saw you take on Warhead. Dude, those were some seriously impressive driving skills.
mattmaxsr You're doing excellent in them! Wish we had one in NZ, I'd so build a bot for it!
+StreetlampPro Thank you!
Last Rites isn't but Tombstone is

Sewer Snake is one tough little mother ... great driving!!!
Im trying to think of something funny to say after mother thats not a insult toward mothers but also relating to a snake...
*wait oh god i hate my 25% non family friendly mind*
I came here to see Last Rites destroy and kill. But after 20 seconds i was rooting for the Sewer Snake.
sewer snake has quickly become one of my favorite bots since i found out about him, I hope you have more plans to bring him out in the future! There's something very satisfying about it
Best fight I've seen in years.
You're absolutely correct!!! we were just having fun!!!
and Original Sin still kicked my BUTTTT!!!
Stinger vs Tombstone
Sewer Snake is the shit,even able to beat these simple brute bots like last rites.
As Sewer Snake and Last Rites are not competing in 'Battlebots' (thus aren't under contract), I would welcome them as additions to 'Robot Wars' (especially as SS competed in the 2006 Roaming Robots Winter Championships, beating the likes of Ka-Pow and Storm 2).
Jack Monaghan sewer snake did comoete in the uk at one point (before robot wars reaired)... wanna know what name it used, stinger the killer bee
dat guy
Actually we fought as Angry Asp in the UK
I've seen a lot of battles but that was better than most!
Anyone got details on the builds / parts etc as I want to try building a combat robot ?
here is the insides of Sewer Snake
czcams.com/video/Pt6_dXKwQYw/video.html
Brill, thanks :)
One their site riobotz have a full and very well written manula about it! www.riobotz.com.br/riobotz_combot_tutorial.pdf
+Giovanni Pellegrini thanks :)
ah, it won't open :(
Amazing fight between long time rivals. Last Rights got its revenge the following year.
That robot is basically Hypnodisc!
Damage. Style. Aggression.
Sir Stefan Lord of Kitty Cats so basically any spinner?
hey matt, i just wanted to say thanks for giving me the sewer snake card. too bad its the old one :(
Stinger VS Tombstone
Nice one! I'd heard it on one of the Combots videos, nice bit of trivia - thanks!
Sewer Snake still wins in my book - I'd love to see Original Sin do some crazy robot breakdancing stunts!

The flame thrower underneath the wedge doesn't seem like the best idea, it keeps heat more towards your both then thiers
it works good when you lift them up because the flame shoots out from under the wedge. because most likely the underside is the weakest bit
Such a great enjoyable match. Love the sparks and flames.
one heck of a sport see you at robo games team plumcrazy
I fucking love this sport. I can't believe Robot Wars was cancelled. It was the best hosted(Craig Charles),best layout, best organized and had the greatest fighters. It was perfect.

Well, you probably know this by now, but.. I've got some news for you!
Don't quote me on this (I'm in the UK, I only follow what I can of the USA fights on CZcams :( ) but I think it's a reference to Original Sin because it's got a three-piece wedge or something - Original Sin also has something like 'I can has red tires?' on it as well which I think is again a reference to Sewer Snake :)
Hope stinger will come back
This really shows tombstone is pretty much lacking against wedgebots or flippers even to this day. If i forgot 2 broken wheels he didnot make any dmg to stinger
C'mon now.
sewer snake is the BEST!!!
2011 года и это было 11 лет назад. Эх.
Truly Epic
So Matt... Where is the main difference between SewerSnake and Stinger appart from the color and some design changes in the chassis?
I think their flipper-plates are different.
And the wheels, and the fact that Sewer Snake can’t compete in Battlebots but Stinger can
Sewer Snake is 220 lbs and Stinger is 250
legendary fight
foi uma das lutas mais bonitas que já vi.
This was brilliant :) What is that scoop made from? Took a direct blow and survived...
White sparks = titanium.
Actually that wedge/plow is AR400 (similar to steel used in rifle target ) an abrasion and impact resistant steel.
+mattmaxsr pfffffftt how do you know that? It's not like you built it or anything
+Robinson Lane (Scary Ned) I jest
The white sparks you saw were from my top plate and top lifter are skinned in Ti. plate.

wow robot rage looks dam good in 2018
List Rites is awesome!!
holy shit this is AWESOME!
seems ike the nerds get to have the most fun
Gasped! Sewer Snake has New weapon with fire. Badass Bots! should you set on Battlebots or robot wars air on. youre awesome!!!!
great battle
Holly shit those flips at the end!
Hey matt wyy didnt you go to battlebots this year?
@Geeknxt we will have new one at Combots Cup in 5 or 6 monthes
this is more bad-ass then ufc
that's how is going to sound world destruction , and some similar to a black metal song it`s exciting this kind of battles, there are gamblers on this?
Sewer snake reminds me of spongebob
+mattmaxsr I feel like sewer snake is the bane of spinners, whether full body (megabyte), horizontal (last rites/tombstone {though you and Ray trade wins often}), and possibly vertical, but I don't have enough info yet. This is also the first match I've seen where a flamethrower was powerful enough to cause a knockout.
My main question though. HOW do you get so much AGILITY + POWER + DURABILITY out of what seems to be a 6 wheel tank drive? not even original sins drive train is as good at taking damage without losing effectiveness as yours.
I think havind wheels outside your robot give more manoeuvrability. Also, did sewer snake use all six motors.
The flame was nice here but Ray had internal shorts happening not just flame damage. OS and SS use the same drive motors but not sure if the same gear ratio?! Our mobility is a little more robust with the center wheels always pushing even if we loose corner tires. Where as OS looses a corner tire he may now be dragging that corner!
@Alex 1 motor per side, all 3 tires tided together
It's Tombstone vs Stinger!
this is like a baby version of stinger vs tombstone.
I found a new hobby
That was a great!!! To beat that beast last rights. Should have cooked it at the end!!!
great fucken fight
so lucky
what the hell is that thing made of, dolomite!?!?!?
my palms were super sweaty wow !!
Carnage!
haha MAN.
Has Last Rites EVER beaten Sewer Snake?
u my fave team
Geeknxt
It's just stinger and Tombstone from
When the red one gets its tire ripped off : lame
But after that awesome!!!
The driver for Last Rites has to be the all time worst driver in history.
That would be Ray Billings, and he's a legend in the sport. But even legends have upsets....just look at Lockjaw this year on Battlebots before the Desperado Tournament.
"i can has wedgelets two!" says behind sewer snake. wtf is wedgelets? x)
Destroy and destroy
cool
wow
Anyone 2018 tombstone for the win in 2018
Cool
nice
Camera work is :(
wrestling vs. striking
*sigh* Can't win 'em all!
+Danielle Flannery (Shaba117) especially hard against the anti spinner sewer snake, (The thing's beaten megabyte for goodness sakes.)
wohohohoo
LOL nice
Lol ya wrestling vs striking
smoked em
tombstone much?
Palito Panggabean that is tombstone, same builder, and sewer snake is stinger
Simon Zheng Oh yeah i heard this battle before. Sorry for my ignorance
"I can has"
This was a really cool build and I admired it, until I noticed that somebody thought it would be cute to apply a meme sticker to the back of it.

Boooo
I'm sorry you didn't like this one! But if you like these bar spinners, here's one you might like....
Tombstone Rays other bot.
