Nothing better than a match between two wise old men.
Well, it was a fight extremely well handed by both of them. Not only by how strong the attacks were but how well they performed on the driving of those bots. Something refreshing from all that bs coming from rocket scientists and MIT kids that can't even get their bots running from the start. Very well done by both of them.
Wise man have there experience in battle
Yeah i think Beta's hammer broke a lot earlier than it seemed, Tombstone got a few glancing blows on the chain mechanism on the middle.
0:43 you can see it trying to fire here, but it just couldn't follow through. If they could make the wedge a little taller to protect the axe mechanism more they could probably beat tombstone. but currently, it's just a little too exposed.
But they couldn’t use the terrorhurtz design since you can’t use the same bot in robot wars and battle bots
He’s not saying it should be the same, I think it should just be similar
Beta lost because of the rules in this season requires you to use your primary weapon so after Beta's hammer went down it can't gain damage points. I'd like to see a rematch between these two with current rules
without that rule Tombstone still did way more damage it would have been the same outcome with current rules.
With current criteria I'd score this
Damage 4-1 Tombstone
Aggression 2-1 Beta
Control 2-1 Beta
Giving Tombstone the win 6-5 which seems fair in my book. You could deffo make an argument for control 3-0 Beta imo tho
@@nametab6415 Aggression category refers to primary weapon usage. Beta only fired it's weapon around 3 times and it stopped working after 30s, Tombstone's horizontal spinner worked all fight and did a ton of damage. Tombstone definitely wins that category but ramming it into the wall was clever so I guess it would score 2-1 in Tombstone's favour.
If Beta avoided all the damage in the last minute of the fight, it could have won.
What are the current rules?
Win or loose, just laugh, enjoy the game and continue. Awesome to see.
Man, beta so stable, best bot i have ever seen in this field.
😂
More like duck!
1:45 He should have listened to this advice for the next season he entered!
Боролись до конца, с расстоновкой, оба на хорошем уровне.
More hammerbots = more fun! Let's have more of this!
Oh hey you too here
More interesting like shatter and less like beta
Always felt bad for Beta here, they were able to control the action of the majority of the fight. Unfortunately Tombstone managed to get that lucky shot in which took out the hammer base of Beta. Even despite that I think it was a toss up as to who would win as Tombstone didn't really do anything else. Another reason why damage shouldn't be the most heavily weighted category. It puts anything that isn't a spinner at a disadvantage.
Beta has to be lucky the whole fight, tombstone only has to be lucky once
But that is exactly what brings in the numbers - destruction. A clean fight can be impressive, but the impact of destruction is hard to match by simple control. While the control here did have some destructive elements by making tombstone injure itself, it still didn't accomplish much because in that respect, even after taking so much, tombstone still managed to run its p-weapon & get that shot as a matter of fact which shows both good attack & defense/endurance for the bot.
He barely even used his hammer
I felt bad for Tombstone not to defeat Beta in 1 minute. Lucky bot
it didn't even look like beta is controlling, it looked like that thing in boxing where one hugs the other so that he can't punch, except here tombstone can still punch and do damage while being hugged
driving under and doing nothing else is not "controlling" in my eyes
One of my favourite fights of all time!
The unique tough battle which tombstone had this season alongside with the Yeti one.
Crazy how this doesn't have way more views considering how good of a fight it was and definitely one of the best from the entire 2016 season.
Shame Beta didn’t win, but it didn’t back down against Tombstone even when the hammer was immobilised. Hopefully team Terrorhurtz will get in for the next season.
Beta's hammer not working is just a running gag dating back from killerhurtz :P
I guess Beta learned from their mistakes as they did the same thing in season 5 against Rotator and won
Tombstone took the same control after him only after 2nd and 3rd season. That means Beta is future level of control
One of the best fights ever
Great to see Fon Davis. Huge fan
I think we can all agree Tomb Stones's worst enemy is its own weapon
Great to see good sportsman ship and a good fight thanks BB
this fight just goes to show how much punishment beta can take
Beta could've won if they just used it's hammer
That would've been a huge underdog upset if that were the case and if they did win against Tombstone, they would be facing Yeti which would be even mote chaotic imo
Who else?
And then maybe we could get Yeti vs Bombshell for the final
Such an awesome and iconic fight, but the fact that this wasn't a split decision shows how broken the judging criteria was back then (and kinda still is). Damage as a category is well past it's time. If you want an example of a balanced judging system, that doesn't put all the weight on spinners watch BashBots season 4.
I think that the real problem is that we don't know how each of them distributed the points.
If it was an 11 points system, maybe it as: 6v5, 6v5, 6v5 for Tombstone.
It would be unanimous, but still a very close win.
Robot wars judging is better
@@Fiddlesticks258yeah in the reboot which I presume you're referring to they emphasised aggression not damage as the most important criteria. I feel battlebots may in fact benefit from adopting the same approach.
I forgot how good of a match this was
Where did the preview clips go? I really miss them
.

Said no one ever
the fact Tombstone wins fights 99% of the times is simply because of their no-nonsense approach to design and really really clever-simple engineering. Works upside down too. Things don't have to be overdesigned. Bronco is another good example of a simple yet powerful design.
The spirit of battlebots is innovation. Perfecting a single thing is for athetic sports. Complexity should be rewarded here.
@@lordilluminati5836 the spirit of battlebots is demolition tbh, not innovation. a Walking bot never made the cut to finals, a multibot never made the cut to finals. Spinners are the mayor dmg dealer, flippers look cool but make the fight iffy cuz the opponent adds some counters and might get stuck on the floor (happend often enough and always ends in some people complaining) and then there are hammers, who i believe are the weakest kind of dmg dealers. The only innovation i see is the advancement of driving skills, which i do love to see cuz great drivers in a strong flipper bot are deadly
That was vety nice, thrilling till the end
Beta doesn’t like using his hammer. Takes average of 2 shots on every fight
Every time I watch Beta, they refuse to use their hammer. A lot of the time they don't use it for half the match, only to get it destroyed without even using it once. When they do use it, it's quite underwhelming and lacks power.
I think Beta should repair its hammer since the rule is favored for hitting with the primary weapon. And I also want to see more hits with hammer, not just a moving.
Yup very boring to watch! But very entertaining to watch him get mangled lol
@taehoonkim7819 he should turn it into a hammer- saw instead way more kinetic energy
One of my favorite battle of all time. Although I like tombstone, I feel beta is the winner here.
Is that a another familiar face from Robot Wars I see there in Beta's corner?
Yup, the owner of both Killahertz and Terrorhurtz.
we should start signing a petition for beta to come back to battle bots 🤣🤣🤣
No thanks beta is BORING to watch!
Not the first time beta has been "Waiting for a good hit" and just never using the hammer
Battle of 2 seniors.. 👍🏻
This is from an old season right? I don't see the upper deck here
ABC Season 2
if i trained for years to go into space and ended up been a judge on here you would find me like kurt cobain
Estas batallas son lo mejor, lo triste de vivir en latinoamerica
I think one way to destroy Tombstone is to ram it those walls while spinning so hard! Tombstone's a beast!
Yup only way I think or take wheels off, which is almost impossible 😅
Tombstoneeeeeeee
Great match
If Beta beat Tombstone could it have won the season?
Beta could probably win it all. I don't think Yeti have what it takes to beat Beta. And assuming Bombshell beat Minotaur like it was, the Beta probably beat Bombshell in the final, mainly because Bombshell can't use their vertical spinner because it's damaged. But if Minotaur beat Bombshell I can see Minotaur winning
@Bandit-Survivor Content can i have season 2 won giant is Tombstone
Some think loss chomp it cloud drive bite force boy oh much in year 4
@@cypherbrittainnethegodofsl4988 tough he May go with his horizontal confuguration. That May have a chance
It shouldn't be about who does the most damage, but who sustained the most damage. Having these intense kinetic weapons basically destroy themselves to then just called the winner due to them if course blowing up both sides is boring. Control and skill should be more rewarding. Given in this fight tombstone did hold up well and I do agree with the overall decision, but just not the point system.
Spinners are fun to watch sure, but if the rules stay like they do, doing anything else is pointless as you cannot counter them. I personally prefer technical fights.
Tombstone para toda la vida ... (Y)
I think that's the big problem with tombstone: while the weapon is very powerful,the mobility is apparently very limited. The bot gets so often outmaneuvered and is barely able to take the initiative.
Ya but as soon as someone goes to hit Tombstone all he has to do is turn a little bit
Beta tanqueo como campeón a Tombstome y aprovecho su entorno para no dejarse la fácil , si tan solo el mecánico de su martillo no estuviera tan expuesto hubiera podido ganar
Aún así creo que merecía al menos u punto por control
Big tombstone fan. The problem with the way these competitions are ruled, every match with tombstone is basically tombstone vs a bot that attached a giant piece of armour to it. Yet when Hydra humiliated HUGE with a cow catcher they figured that was bad sportsmanship. Its the exact same thing. They attached a device to block the weapon because they can't defend against the weapon otherwise.
Either way though, the biggest problem with battlebots right now is a lack of diversity, and with every other bot having a vertical spinner, a lot is lost in the same way that other bot shows might of had most bots being a flipper and favouring that type under the rules. They need to ammend the rules so that vertical spinners aren't so favoured by them.
Couldn't agree more!
Big wedges are counters to all horizontal spinners, not just Tombstone, so it's actually very fair whilst the cow catcher was bad sportsmanship.
@@madpsycho6 i liked it as a moment though because it was a good talking point
@@madpsycho6 So you just said nothing there. I made a real comparison and you essentially ignored it. If its fine to attach a heavy wedge to block tombstone's bar then in what way is it bad sportsmanship to attach a device to make it so the long bar of HUGE can't reach you? Is it because the device turned HUGE into a useless joke with no pushing power or maneuverability? Tombstone is literally a heavy bar on two wheels so creating a device to stop that contact is the exact same thing. If you want to call it bad sportsmanship then be consistent.
@@beauottenbreit7992 the heavy wedge that counters tombstone will counter Rotator, Hijinx, Ribbot, Captain Shrederator and Gigabyte as well so it's not bad sportsmanship, the cow catcher was used in one of the most boring matches in robot combat history (Mr speed squared Vs Foxic had more action in it) and HUGE's following fight against Kraken showed how a anti HUGE configuration can be interesting to watch in action.
Не понятно кто победил, но всё рады, Американцы что тут говорить😀
🇧🇷 Sempre bom ver uma batalha logo de manhã. Viva 👉👉🇷🇺
Tombstone didn't deserve this win. They should have been humble enough to accept defeat.
tombstone did mayor dmg, why dont they deserve the win? Yes Beta had the better driving/control, while i wanna say pinning a bot at one place isnt really advancing the battle. But the dmg Beta caused to Tombstone was minimal at best. Since it didnt cause Tombstone to be immobilized nor stoped the spinner from working. So yeah, Tombstone destroyed more of beta than beta did to Tomstone. And since this is a battle, not a "who is the best pilot" Tombstone wins
tombstone got hit 2x times
Upload new fights please…
O beta lutou muito bem mais perdeu
Bilbao beat Barcelona.
Bruh

Interesante
I do not agree with judges... 😑😑
Malos Ejemplares,,!!!! pero Excelentes PilOtos Contrincantes,,!!!
That hammer is useless allways
😂
Beta was better the whole fight, what a fraud!!! 😡
Watch the video again? Beta did no damage to Tombstone, at least not with its primary weapon (the big hammer) which was useless in this match. Beta had the aggression and control but to no effect, other than getting its hammer chopped off...
@@someguy4915 Aggression refers to attacks mainly by the primary weapon. Because the hammer died after 30s, Tombstone would win that category.
I just totally hate Tombstone
Why? I mean im no super-fan, but I don't see a reason to HATE them.
