      I mean, it was wrecking Bite Force in their fight, only loosing due to not enough time for repairs, after they got destroyed by ICEwave. Huge was always a good bot, simply unlucky with their oponents.

      Huge is a matchup bot, it has fantastic ones and terrible ones with nothing inbetween, its success is largely dependent on what it gets to fight. So is Starchild, though one of its terrible matchups happens to be Huge. Starchild being an untested rookie aside, Huge's season was much easier- Shatter can't reach it, Blip can't flip it, Starchild can't hit it and Fusion caught on fire. Meanwhile Starchild got Overhaul that can grab it, Mammoth that can flip it, a functioning horizontal spinner that drops bigwheels and Huge which it can't hit. Swap their schedules and Huge goes 2/2 while Starchild gets at least one win.

      ​@@TheLaXandro Tbf Huge did demolish the best version of Fusion we have seen yet. Fusion's design only fails because it's operating on 200% power constantly...but it is a deadly robot when it works. It did go head to head with Witch Doctor so there is some merit to Huge actually working this year. Starchild landed less than 10 hits it's entire career.

    • @TheLaXandro
      @TheLaXandro ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @@sebastianriz4703 oh of course, Starchild is a fundamentally inferior design to Huge. Even if it functioned perfectly, it is much harder to use and much more limited in its gameplan for no real benefit and loses out on a lot of opportunities as a result. Its weapon's area of influence is much smaller and can't be held, it can't have a heavy weapon because then it wouldn't be able to thwack, it can't move and use its weapon at the same time or use its weapon as defense/intimidation, it can't switch weapon direction to alternate between overheads and uppercuts like Huge can, it's all compromises. Just about the only thing that Starchild might have over Huge is that its main body is tankier, we've seen Huge split in half before and it looks like Starchild is much less succeptible to it, but the body being impossible to hit is kind of the main idea of bigwheels in the first place so its durability is largely redundant.
      Maybe if Starchild decides to ditch the thwack motion, make the weapon into a heavy drum and lead with it on the ground, it'll be a fun sidegrade to Huge and have tangible benefits over both it and regular drums. Better than another boring vert at least.

      I have no idea what the driver of Starchild was trying to do. It got off on a good start, but later just flopped around for a big part of the fight. At one point it drove itself onto the screws.

      At the very least, it was an outstanding display of durability that. When you take a step back and look at it post season, gotta at least be proud of that much. Even if the weapon wasn't very good, Huge's first season? Probably would have come apart at the seams if it was in star child's place

    • @acywei
      @acywei ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@smashbother5684 Good start? Starchild is factually a bad design, that has been tried and failed over and over again. You never want a weapon that has an attack delay, the idea of having to set up the spot then flipping the whole thing over for a hit is just silly. Most hit opportunities are less than .5s. It takes Starchild over 1s to get it's attack off.
      Not even mentioning the precision needed to pull it's hit off. Any smaller bot just moves, which is exactly what happens in every other one of its' fights.
      The meta has been proven time and again, big F off vertical or horizontal spinners, built on a reliable chassis.

      Also while splitting it into two weapons you lose power and weight that could go into a single one. Although you do have a better chance if one goes down, you give up that massive power that Huge used to win that fight

      @@ku8721 Agreed but you do have something wrong about Fusion's design. It's not using one full powered motor to operate both weapons. It's using two separate full power motors to operate each weapon individually. It's why if one goes out, the other is operational but it's also why Fusion has a lot of reliability issues. It's using 200% power to run optimally.
      Still. Even with the lucky shot, Huge absolutely destroyed Fusion in that fight. It never stopped.

      @@sebastianriz4703 No my point still stands as you lose the weight from the second motor and weapon that you could have used on the main weapon giving it more power. Not saying that is a bad setup... if you lose one. But you'll never get the same kinetic energy behind a hit like Tombstone, Huge, or Bloodsport.
      Yeah Fusion couldn't move after that first hit! Huge took advantage. Real easy to hit someone when they're down. Not saying that went too far like some other people with Riptide and Captain Shrederator. I think both those fights were fine, but in both those fights an early big hit incapacitated the bot and the other team went for blood.

      Also that time Gigabyte disintegrated in midair compliments of Shockwave.
      And back in the day there were some unique but fragile bots like Radioactive and Counter-Revolution that got annihilated by Tombstone.

    Its a good idea to have so much ground clearance that most bots can't reach your main frame. But those wheels are still just giant targets, and Starchild showed us exactly why. Huge has definitely come a long way over their years and improved the design, but until they find a really good way to reinforce those wheels, or even somehow make it dangerous for other bots to target them- it will be an ever present weak spot on both sides to be exploited.

    I believe Huge wasn't much better than Starchild in its first season. Heck, I remember Huge being split in half!
    Starchild just needs to improve their bot and driving style, and practice a lot! After that, Huge will have some stiff competition!

    • @Living_Murphys_Law

      Huge was 3-2 overall in its first season, 2018. It two losses were both by getting split in half, though, due to faulty metal in the weapon shaft.

    I’m confused - how is star child’s weapon supposed to work? 1. If the end is supposed to spin up, that’s not going to work because the end is constantly hitting the ground. 2. If the end is not supposed to spin up and it’s just supposed to whack, how is that going to compete at all?

    I'm conflicted on Starchild. On one hand, I want to see a variety of designs in the Battlebox. On the other hand, I don't want to see something that's just going to get humiliated every time. I can see it using its mobility and unusual weapon coverage to take someone by surprise, but it _has_ to put something in the win column next season. The best place to start would be the wheels... it's a bad sign when the easiest-to-hit part is the most vulnerable!

    • @nicholasfarrell5981
      @nicholasfarrell5981 ปีที่แล้ว

      They seem to have the same wheel issues that HUGE! had when it started out, it's possible that they need to use a different material for them. It doesn't help that Starchild's weapon doesn't scale up to the 250 weight class all that well.
