Same. Half the fights I wonder what is going on in the minds of at least one judge. Here, I haven't seen the judges' decision, but I would have trouble deciding myself. If forced to choose, considering that neither did much damage, I probably would have *just* leaned towards Blacksmith.
It seems that either the armour on Blacksmith was strong enough to withstand the bite, or the Kraken had bad luck and bit in an unfortunate place. It looks like the first bite was too close to the edge of Blacksmith, so perhaps it's the place that had some thick structural member running below the steel plate, so it was harder to pierce... Blacksmith's hammer did not do much damage either. There were some dents, but it did not look too serious. It was probably a very close call by the judges
Kraken is a crush bot, meaning that its jaws are designed to crush the opposition and pierce through the armour. It's a unique weapon type that is typically slower, which means that it is not ideal against many of the fast, high impact bots that are the current meta, nor is it visually intimidating like a hammer, saw, or spinner. And Kraken doesn't exactly have a strong bite.
wont lie, bit disappointed by how low the actual damage being dealt to the robots is...... compare this to e.g. Season 9 of Robot Wars.... you had bots literally being ripped apart and still having to piece themselves together within hours for another round.... all this damage was superficial entirely.
I suppose it should pierce the armor, and hopefully something inside (battery, some wires or pressure hoses).

Flaming robots are lame, all flash and no real weapon Why competitors are not using plasma torches, which are capable of slicing apart opponents, is mystery to me.
STOP GIVING SPOILERS AT THE BEGINNING !
@CorbyScotch Every video at least 2 or 3 people are calling for it to be removed
Lets start a campaign to remove the spoilers at the beginning
DON'T WATCH IT lDIOT
Really
True
For me this is one of those fights in which the judges could perfectly choose either of the two bots since both performed a great match

This fight in a nutshell: smol tanky box violently boops a sea-monster while getting bit by said sea-monster
I love both Blacksmith and Kraken. Such stylish and fun to watch bots. Very flashy!
channel no spoilers please. we are tired of skipping immediately
1:52 Complete control vs Bombshell flashbacks
Wait WHAT
Blacksmith is a coolbot. Very reliable too.
Sempre um show de apresentação melhor que o outro.
Parabéns pessoal!!!
Vc sabe se tem locução br
@@gabrielpeixoto9079 Bom dia Gabriel.
Ainda não encontrei uma boa mas seria bom ter um narrador em Português.
Season 4 was a really great season. Maybe one of the best imho
Massive fight!
First time I saw a split decision not being announced like winnwr-loser-winner but loser-winner-winner!
I was just going to post the same thing. I doubt we'll ever see them announce a split decision as winner-winner, just to mess with us.
A battle between two of my favourite bots, awesome

De las mejores que he visto, muy parejo.
Very very good fight!
Will you flipping stop it with the flipping spoilers at the start?
Great 👍 match
Kraken deserves some extra points for style.
0:44 I find this part funny and cute at the same time bro 😭😭😭
Best commentators.
I guess this is the first time blacksmith has won
Yes he does win SOMETIMES
Krakey didnt even have a weapon if I put googly eyes on my robot vacuum I would do just as good

@@Mikowmer oh ok I didnt know it had a crusher thnx for explaining
BLACKSMITH VS GEMINI VS BASILISK I WANT YOU TO POST THAT BATTLEBOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on I mean pleeeeaaaaase.
No
@@Wolfubs shut up
Blacksmith is underrated
Blacksmith is useless honestly. he has one of the worst weapons
@@juancortapan7845 But this weapon is good against control robots because the hammer helps the robot to get out of getting stuck.
Great match
Stop the spoilers at the beginning
Good game and there should a separate battlebots event for bots without those spinning weapons.
Spolier skip 00:14
Every time I skip 10-15 seconds instantly after playing the video.

I mean, a key example of this is Supernova against Frostbite. It was spinner on spinner.
So don't watch the battles that have control robots, that don't have weapons
The Blacksmith vs Kraken fight was a coin toss, this could’ve gone either way.
Yeah it could
I don't understand exactly what Kraken's weapon does.
It just closes a bit?
I suppose it should pierce the armor, and hopefully something inside (battery, some wires or pressure hoses).

Black Smith was so agressive 🦾
especially against battle arena floor...
What is Kraken's weapon? Is it just a wedge bot with a fancy costume, or is there some crushing mechanism inside its "mouth".
is the second

weird judgement.
Mood swing match
Blacksmith is kraken heads!
Could have gone either way, but the right decision, I think.
Wow
kraken was mor dominant.
-Black smith tấn công thiếu hiệu quả
- Kraken tấn công hiệu quả nhưng quá nhàm chán
Against the kraken, it was effective, just see the damage it did on the top of the kraken, imagine if it was on a flatter robot
¡Que buena pelea!
Fair. And stop the spoiler please
Choreo
I wish the couldn’t let go
¿Cómo pasó a ser una de las dueñas de los robots más feos a juez?
Ella está alli desde Los primórdios de battlebots en los 90's
30?
Kraken needs to be redesigned. It has not any weapon.
You know, Kraken is like those players in Smash or Street Fighter that just use grapple and nothing else. Just boring and lame
What idiots idea is it to put a spoiler at the start of a fight , imagine the same before watching a boxing match
Kraken was better!👍👍👍👍
Use fire for what??
wow
Both too harmless, like a soap bubble fight
For me this is a draw. Could make a case either way.
can’t kraken spit fire?? i remember it can
you're thinking of warhead

This is totally unfair

Why did they let Blacksmith hit blah blah blah blah blah blah even I'm sick of saying it every time
Kindergarden level match !🤭
Беспонтовка
Yang punya palu bisa ketuk palu
Battlebots comedy central
The judge who voted for Kraken must have watched another contest.
👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Both are design flawed robots......
Cangcut mantap

What does Kraken actually do, it's 'weapon' is pathetic.
