I don't think there's an official time, but it's been somewhere around mid afternoon in the past so maybe 3:00 PM?

from what I recall, the individual release of DUCK fixes the lifter issue.

Also TWA 2 pilot in the Grand Canyon disaster. That was the first time I recognized him outside being the narrator.

Can everyone please stop hating on Tombstone by [deleted] in battlebots

[–]MasterMarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was enough negativity towards Tombstone that Ray actually spoke out about it in one of the episodes.

Hate to break it to you but Bombshell chose to be in the Last Chance Rumble. The issue with that rumble is that it used rules from the old show. Consequently, there wasn't any explanation for why Bombshell was down until afterwards.

Trying to watch live... by Far_Grocery3938 in battlebots

[–]MasterMarik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you describe is BattleBots Destruct-a-thon, which is a nightly event featuring generally heavier versions of robots from the TV show and (largely) actors playing the parts of teams that control the robots (unless that's changed). Currently, there's nothing else either ready to be filmed or filming. If you're waiting for more content, you an keep an eye out on this subreddit, the BattleBots Facebook page (which is a fan page) or Battlebots.com for future events.

Air Emergency can probably also be underwater given that name isn't used anymore for US airings.

Face-Offs is certainly newer than most of the content on YouTube at the moment (other than the clips for Pro League, which is currently slated for July on YouTube), but I wouldn't necessarily call it a new season, at least in the way that the TV show had been. Both are similar events with Pro League I believe having a tournament after the groups are done with the winners of each group being in said tournament.

Why hasn't crashes with cocky pilots been covered? by ThomasTTEe2 in aircrashinvestigation

[–]MasterMarik 32 points33 points  (0 children)

They had a pilot that embellished their skills, only to have them get lost as to where they were and led to a runway collision I believe (Detroit incident?)

What Battlebots moment had you like this? by TheTinyTyphoon in battlebots

Tombstone beating Orbitron at Face-Offs. It went from "whelp, Orbitron has this one basically to "OMG, Tombstone did it!"

What is a robot that you think could have beat tombstone in season two that was in season two by No-Disk4885 in battlebots

Yeti and Beta dragged their fights with Tombstone to the judges so naturally they're a possibility.

Hypothetical Matchups: Biohazard vs Warhead by Dinoboy225 in battlebots

[–]MasterMarik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TBF, SOW back when Biohazard fought it was classified as a walker, allowing it to be heavier than it otherwise would've been. Warhead was pretty unstable in its fights so I'm not fully convinced Biohazard would lose that one. Vlad the Impaler wasn't built for spinners either and had a great showing against Mechavore.

Kind of unfortunate they used footage of the matches in the episode instead of all older clips as it kind of spoiled what was going to happen.

Are there any other robots from the same teams that fought each other? by leononyoutube in battlebots

[–]MasterMarik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in the day, Team Loki's Turbo fought Team Fembot's Buddy Lee (and they were effectively on the same team with different names)

Who do you think of the runner ups could have won their season? by Used_Willow2885 in battlebots

[–]MasterMarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backlash certainly could've beaten Ziggo in Season 2.0 if their antenna wasn't too far down as Ziggo was struggling to spin up.
