I'm binge watching all of your videos to try and hide the pain........this is the first time I've been legitimately outraged at TV since Community was cancelled.
@@ArnoId-Schwarzenegger there is beauty in the shiny steel, the magnificent and dangerous looking claw, the cowling on its sides, etc. And finally, the way it could raise its self righting counterweights in victory. Its like a champion raising their arms, or a bird raising a plume of feathers. Gives it a personality.
tornado might be a god ramingbot but but ther laighter cheating cage make that team look weak and scared against razor. razor is one of my favorites in the old show and carbide from the newer shows.
@@extec101 The thing I hated about Tornado's team with that anti-crush cage is because Razer has, time and time again, even with its then-upgrades, reliability issues and actual issues with flippers and constant aggression. Tornado, minus the cage, has massive potential in beating Razer with a vertical spinner and just ram through it and would do so much, much more convincingly compared to Pussycat. Pussycat just didn't have the speed to abuse their vertical spinner, yet it somehow won... twice... (maybe out of luck due to Razer's then-reliability issues pre-upgrade?).
tornado really was a terrible matchup for razer before they figured out the cage. He has 4 massive wheels that can easily be punctured or jammed up by razers claw
As a kid, watching Tornado getting murdered was the most upset i got from a match from robot wars. As an adult man, its just hilarious how fast razer eats tornoado
Don't see why they couldn't do Armored Core/Twisted Metal gameplay but on a smaller scale with robots like this. Flippers, flamethrowers, saw blades, hammers, etc. Would be fun to build a robot for vs play.
Sometimes I wish I could see just the battles and not the little bit before hand, always cringe at being reminded how dated a lot of the jokes/pits talk was
Yeah I'll never understand why we need any of the talking before the fights for channels like this. But then it's not my channel so the owner can do what they want if they're putting the effort in to compile vidoes If someone ever uploaded #justthefights though I'd be there in a shot ;)
Blooper Sphoof don't get me wrong, I'm glad you do! Put it across badly was just commenting on how different an experience it is watching it now in 2018, I mean if I remember correctly there was even a grudge match between diotoir and firestorm because diotoir thought the team acted too 'girly'. One of the things even as a kid I realised was this was a very male led show, true shame its been scrapped just as that was looking to change with the likes of expulsion (still one of my fav teams in show to date) and the Dutch team. Keep up the good work, especially now the BBC can't be bothered!
In my opinion, for extreme at least,because it's not tournament format, I think it needs some of the backstage segments otherwise, you'd think they are battling for no reason.
Judge decision may as well be a coin flip sometimes lmao, how tf did Behemoth not win? They had Razer on its back basically the whole fight and neither of Razer's grabs did any meaningful damage to their mobility or weapon.
No contest. Razor vs. any modern bot would get killed. Armour is too strong nowadays for them to do damage. Not to mention new motors, batteries, controllers, and reliable spinners.
OUCH only $9000 LOL well I get only big business's are buying that ....meanwhile I probab;y have about the same power with 110 tesla P106-06's sad price for 1 card
Ian Lewis the biggest sore looser of robot wars history saying that pussy cat shouldn’t be attacking if the robot is immobilised. Hmmm it’s he did it to anyone else
@@micksitton9584Razer were still taking wheels off of millly ann bug after they were immobilised. Also kept trashing their wives/girlfriends machine after they had been counted out.
12:59 "Listen to the popping of the tire!" I can't hear anything, y'know, because of the fucking music bed, piped in audience noises, and fake sound effects. Not to mention the announcer, who is 20 dB louder than anything else, not to mention profoundly annoying. The sound editing is somehow worse than the original battlebots series, and with none of the charm. Still, this is a good show, it's just that for some reason in the early 2000's, networks thought that making their shows sound really busy and fast paced would make young people want to watch them, which is a shame, because that trend did not hold up well.
I don't know what you're talking about, Johnathan Pearce and Craig Charles absolutely completed this show, I can't imagine anyone else coming in and delivering the energy (with some assistance from some Latin American stimulants) and enthusiasm while still doing the useful commentary job.
@@tombardsley3081In case you're not aware, which you might be, Tornado equipped an "anti-crusher cage" (or Cope Cage as some people call it) to their robot in both the series 6 grand final and Extreme 2 semi-final against Razer, which had been previously cleared with the judges as being a legal weapon due to a horizontal bar spinner equipped on the front of it. The cage was wide enough on all sides to prevent Razer from reaching the actual robot itself, so all it could do was crush on and latch onto the cage rather than the robot. However, the cage was also too wide for the pit, meaning there was physically no way Razer could put Tornado in the pit because it was too wide with the cage on to fit down there, no matter which way you put it. The controversy partly stems from this inability to be pitted, being viewed by some as cheating (due to completely negating a viable method for a robot to end the fight), however other controversy arises from the fact that the cage was used at all, since it completely stopped Razer from grabbing Tornado, and the cage was only ever used against Razer, not on anyone else. In Extreme 2, Razer was given the win by the judges, but the Razer team themselves overturned the decision and gave it to Tornado due to Razer burning out its drive motors during the fight and being immobilised but not counted out. The decision literally tore apart the Razer team, with Vinnie Blood leaving the team because of it, and Ian Lewis refusing to be there when the Razer team handed the win over to Tornado. My personal opinion on the cage is that if it was smaller (to allow them to fit in the pit), then it would have been fine. Having deterrent weapons (like chains or rope to gum up discs/spinners) is fine (if a little not in the spirit of the sport imo) but when said deterrent actively prevents you from being placed somewhere like the pit, that's when I feel it's not sportsmanship or in the spirit of the sport and instead just putting something on out of spite just to ensure you don't lose to a particular robot. Do I wish Razer had won series 6 and extreme 2 instead of Tornado? Yes. Do I think the cage is a little bit cheaty and unsportsmanlike to use against Razer? Yes. Will I make a big fuss of it? No, what's done is done and it's not like we can change it now.
@@legodude494 the rules stated that the "anti crusher" frame was within the maximum size that a robot is allowed to be. It was a legal weapon so how can it be cheating? Changing /adapting your tactics Vs particular machines is a genuine tactic in robot wars or in any form of sports competition. See team sports with football or individual ones like tennis or boxing. Additionally, walkers that were bigger than the pit have competed in the same championships and they were allowed and not seen as cheating

O man, what a machine that was... Brilliant AND beautiful.
How's that beautiful?
Its shiny

Gives it a personality.
And that is why Tornado is dependent on the Beetch-cage.
Another video on my favorite robot of all time!
YOU DONT SAY EH
My favorite robot of all time too...
Yes, I'm a Razer fanboy and I'm not ashamed.
Oh look; what happens if Razer and Tornado fight and Tornado *doesn't* cheat :D
Spongebabe ikr. It’s almost if Tornado isn’t good when it cheats, and Razer is the superior machine! Or is that just me 🤔😂

@@wunzeptepwun6175 im in on what you say.
Is it considered cheating if the producers allow it? Saying it is okay. just Razer fanboys not willing to accept that their hero lost to a Rambot.
Razor should be brought back as a house robot
I know, after seeing what he did to Mathilda he earned the right to become one in my book.
@@ilikethecokev2 what book?
Team Robochallenge's KoB champion "Spectre" was actually a test for a new house robot, they were also going to make a new SGT. Bash
It's honestly heartbreaking knowing Series 11 of Robot Wars could've seen Bash back in such incredible form
Too strong to be a house robot, one puncture to any vital machinery and bam it’s game over
Razer was one of the best Battlebots ever designed.
That crunching attack on Gemini, is damn satisfying.
Razer is The G.O.A.T AND HE LOOKS SO NICE
Razer is The S.H.E.E.P
Tassel jacket outfit is best outfit for the host.
Razer is a beautiful and very impressive robot
Has anything beat it
Very few robots have beat razer
tornado really was a terrible matchup for razer before they figured out the cage. He has 4 massive wheels that can easily be punctured or jammed up by razers claw
Robot Wars Gemini: Who are you?!
BattleBots Gemini: We’re you but we don’t work as a team
When razer fought tornado the second time tornados bar guard was total bullshit 😂 this is what happens when they fight fair.
I remember going mad as a kid when I was it. I despised Tornado after that to this day lol :D
@@MrHowardMoon they still won, even when they used that guard, in my opinion. It was a bad judges call
I completely agree, Tornado should never have been allowed that grab guard.
@@MrHowardMoon I still do hate cheatnado.
Drillzilla was one hell of a tough machine... not even a scratch from Razer's beak. Shame they had no real weapons of their own.
it had a arm when it competed in robotica but they had to take it off due to the weight limits.
i would called cease! on the side wall it came up and the officials didnt notice it!
( this was the battle against Firestorm 3)
Wonderful design and well endurance
My favorite just because the sadistic action and the terminator aesthetics. Pure evil.
Man, Razer was the best! Just ask how Matilda feels!
Razer vs the cold fusion team probably the best known rival teams and longest vengeance
Can we have season 7 broncho please. I really enjoy all your videos and now that robot wars has gone off air it is even better.
I hope they add a fire thrower under the Razer claw, and make the Razer thrust more powerful to push the enemy engine
Razer was retired sadly
The fact that it could slide around made it perfect for latching on to other robots, which is why it lacks pushing power
The team did that to their battlebots entry: warhead
MystrSyko's most favourite video.
Razor fkd up when it had the advantage,should have held pussycat over the flames
As a kid, watching Tornado getting murdered was the most upset i got from a match from robot wars. As an adult man, its just hilarious how fast razer eats tornoado
Legend
I’m the 350 person who liked :)
That trophy is terrible! They can't come up with a better trophy.
ikr :)
wow that's is a all fight
They should've had Stinger vs Thermidor 2 as another main event vengeance
Why do Razer's opponents keep going head-on into Razer's cutter??
Look strong and beautiful
the best battlebots, even other team need cheat with cage to win.
We’ve never had a good robot wars video game, wish someone would make it.
The PS2 game was terrible!
Don't see why they couldn't do Armored Core/Twisted Metal gameplay but on a smaller scale with robots like this. Flippers, flamethrowers, saw blades, hammers, etc. Would be fun to build a robot for vs play.
Try garrys wars in gmod
Bit hard to do something like Razer in computer games.
woh is Razor? in the battle robot?😢the best robot
You planning any King of bots videos in the upcoming days/weeks?
Damn that sucks that's such a shame as it was such a good show let's hope they reduce their copyright laws a bit over time
So what ever happened to Razer?
Sometimes I wish I could see just the battles and not the little bit before hand, always cringe at being reminded how dated a lot of the jokes/pits talk was
Yeah I'll never understand why we need any of the talking before the fights for channels like this.

I'm a fan but compared to where the rest of the competition is Razer is over powered. Lets see Razer vs House Robots.
Razor literally tore Matilda to shreds, set her on fire and removed her weapon like.
Who’d win between tombstone and razor😏
yeah that would be a good one
tombstone
Hahahah obviously tombstone hahaha
-Tempest - Tombstone, obviously
No contest. Razor vs. any modern bot would get killed. Armour is too strong nowadays for them to do damage. Not to mention new motors, batteries, controllers, and reliable spinners.
Razer had the worst luck ever against Pussycat..
It’s interesting that everyone is talking about how good/bad the robots are and yet no-one has committed on how attractive Julia Reed is in the pits.
Man, I know. She was fine
OUCH only $9000 LOL well I get only big business's are buying that ....meanwhile I probab;y have about the same power with 110 tesla P106-06's sad price for 1 card
Gg tornado, lol
21:06
Gg
Never forget Tornado cheated :)
Ian Lewis the biggest sore looser of robot wars history saying that pussy cat shouldn’t be attacking if the robot is immobilised. Hmmm it’s he did it to anyone else
@Wendy Nash, you need to be a bit more observant. At 7:50 Razor had been counted out but Pussycat kept attacking, not very sporting
@@micksitton9584Razer were still taking wheels off of millly ann bug after they were immobilised. Also kept trashing their wives/girlfriends machine after they had been counted out.
39:54, black shirt grey pants, middle of the crowd. That guy is losing the plot!
21:09 there is no god. Other than me.
Razer is the truth. Tornado is trash 🗑️🗑️🗑️
Old bots were trash...tombstone all the way baby
Ahhh my least favorite robot!!!

So happy to see razor kick tornados ass twice in one episode, fckn cheaters tornado
In what way did they cheat? I’d love to know how they cheated.
