So what are we thinking that Discovery chooses now, of all times, in the middle of the run of Faceoffs on BB's own youtube channel, to start uploading their own highlights of past episodes?

A good sign? They've noticed how well Faceoffs is doing and want to let all those potential new viewers know that Discovery is where robot combat takes place on TV?

Or more cynically, they have no intention of doing anything with BB ever again and are trying to muddy the waters for casual fans searching for the "New" Battlebots video?

Thoughts?

Anyone else attending this event.

This channel is for this guy showing off his tournament matches for his bots. His current bot Cheesecake is an antweight competitor (1 pound and under) and is very well made.

I adore antweight, and this video was very well done so I hope you all enjoy! Very enjoyable to hear his thoughts as his little bot battles.

Shout out to the beetle bot operators that sent their little boys to fight a titan. Looks like a war zone at the end.

Small battle bot even with Ant weight (under 1 pound) bots battling it out. It's a heat stage so some of the fights aren't super close, but a lot are super fun and silly.

One team even some how has 3 little flipper bots under the weight limit!

The second season of Battlebots Champions (for the Golden Bolt) begins next Thursday Oct 5 on Discovery and streaming on Max! Are there any teams that you're more excited to see or bullish on?

I'm really curious on how the alternate teams perform in Champions. Many of them are brand new but by this point, they should have had enough test runs in the box to get up to gear. I'm hoping we have one or two breakouts from the alt pool that goes deep.

After cutting the cord 7-8 years ago, BattleBots kind of feel off my radar. That's why I was stoked when they added it to Max streaming service. And I've been binging it for the last month or so.

My absolute favorite thing to watch for is, when you can see the judges in the background of a fight, it never fails that Lisa will have the biggest grin on her face. I don't know why, but I love seeing a judge enjoying themselves like a fan would.

Will be fighting it for the first time this Saturday

The look on this kid's face when Son of Whyachi launched Copperhead out of the box is just perfect.
