  • This match is an instant classic. Possibly the greatest flamethrower match we’ve ever had at NHRL. Calvin Iba’s crazy 3lb bot "Mixtape" melts Angel Vidal’s "Hurt Caboose" into a molten pile of electronics and plastic.
    The sportsmanship at the end is what makes NHRL special. Angel offers Calvin a piece of his melted bot as a souvenir and promises to put "Hurt Caboose" on a shelf.

    • @evernewb2073
      @evernewb2073 Před rokem

      the most consistent one I've seen was a bot called alchoholic stepfather: basically just a bog standard wedgebot configuration with a middling-power flamethrower that could actually stay fully functional for the whole match, the thing that set it apart is that it was an omniwheel bot that could keep up with all but the fastest of bots, combine that with a dam good driver and it would basically just kite the other bot usually managing 80+% uptime for keeping them inside the flamethrower, most of the time this cooks something important in the other bot and they win by knockout in under a minute and on the rare occasions where all that heat doesn't cause electronics to fail their opponent just spent the entire fight chasing them while under their primary weapon, most scoring systems are built around rewarding driving over destruction but that is still basically a guaranteed win on points.
      no idea if it would be any good these days to be honest: the basic design plan of putting everything into the drive system so you can abuse having a ranged weapon that actually does something still makes sense (especially as a soft counter to forks since groundgame is a low concern for once) but bots are _way_ faster on average so the driving would need to be utterly insane to manage the kiting tactic even in the heavyweight divisions let alone for something smaller...can't actually remember what weight that thing was either, could be anywhere from 30 to 120 from what visuals I remember for sure.

      The smaller scale of the bots might be a factor, so the heat of the flames could have an easier time cooking the internal wires and circuitboards. And also fewer bots using straight up half inch steel armor that protects those larger bots from flamethrowers,because at a smaller scale that high grade steel would weigh many bots down and slow them down
