This is what I get for showing up late... someone else makes a topic and spoils the whole episode because they watched it on Discovery+. If you want to discuss the episode and NOT have any results spoiled for you, use this topic instead and don't click on the other one.

Our main event this week is the long-awaited rematch of the very controversial semifinal fight from last season, Tantrum vs. Hydra. As a reminder, please put any discussion of match results under spoiler tags until 24 hours after the episode airs out of consideration for people who can't watch the episode live, especially if you decide to watch the episode early on Discovery+ before it airs on TV.

Yeah, thanks to that topic whole episode has been spoiled for me. Word of advice: SPOILERS MUST BE IN A SPOILER TAG even if the topic is marked spoilers. -_-

IT'S ROBOT FIGHTIN' TIME! Former giant nut champion End Game takes on rookie bot Ripperoni in the opener. And again, I apologize for being late to making the thread and leading to the situation with the other thread. I'll try to be more cordial going forward.

Holy shit I just had to come in and say something after that first fight. Ripperoni could have gone with the easy count-out win when Endgame got stuck in the saw pit, but they said no...no, we'll destroy him the old fashioned way.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT RIPPERONI BEATS END GAME! A big part of it was the long forks completely backfiring on End Game and letting Ripperoni get the first big hit in, but Ripperoni's weapon delivered some huge hits even after End Game got freed. Ripperoni proved they're a huge threat when the bot is actually working. That was awesome.

180 turnaround for ripperoni who looked comical in its first fight

Death Roll completely rolled Switchback, then Captain Shrederator beat Hijinx in a very uneventful fight with both bots having weapon issues.

Rotator vs. Jackpot next, this'll be another hard-hitting fight.

Rotator vs. Jackpot was definitely a slugfest, but Rotator was just too tough for Jackpot to KO. After that... man, I don't know what happened to Big Dill. They were doing pretty well against Skorpios, and then they just died.

He was surprisingly humble and sportsmanlike in his post-fight interview. I think he's getting a little tired of being hated, lol

Yeah, he was pretty cool with what happened. I think after this fight, I'm done with hating Jake and Hydra unless he does something stupid again.

Just realized how fitting it was that Ripperoni was on the fight card today:

I hope Martin Mason is going to be a guest commentator. OH, YEAH!

Second round has been interesting and complete turn around so far for some bots. Fusion, for once, did not catch on fire this round. Ripperoni was an improvement, but they still have work to do. Before this round I was thinking 1-3 at best, but they could end up at 2-2. One of the wheels was broken, and Endgame would have eaten them alive if the bot did not die. Deathroll did a 180.

Captain Shredderator (despite the cool name) is not a good bot. It is time to retire or completely redesign it. Also happens the fight against Hijinx is one the weakest fights so far this season.
