Robot Wars Comfy Pre-Show Thread

It's Season 10 on at 8pm, so lads get your arses in this thread and your sausage rolls in the oven. Hosted again by Angela 'Scanty' Scanlon and Dara 'Ehhhhhh' O'Brien, this series changes up the format a bit so no more 4-way eliminators. Another interesting change is that entanglement devices to fuck up spinners are now allowed.

Also trying to post competitors but apparently words in order constitute spam

This week's competitors:
>Apocalypse (Some literally whos with an axebot)
>Apollo (Thoroughly JUSTed by Carbide last series)
>Behemoth (Persistent veteran shovelbot)
>Donald Thump (like Diotor but without any creativity)
>Sabretooth (Will hopefully go more than 8 seconds without breaking itself again)
>The Swarm (4 separate robots, because why the fuck not)

Wait what! This shit is back?

Is /ourguy/ thor joining aswell?

Yep, he's in the final heat up against a bunch of nobodies

Screencap this, /ourguy/ Jason Robot Wars 2017 victor

Thor is in Heat 5

whats going on in this thread?

>The Swarm (4 separate robots, because why the fuck not)
Weren't they in last series too? And fucking sucked.

they entered Or Te, a shitty flipper bot, in series 8, and weren't picked for series 9. the captain had a similar clusterbot in battlebots last year though, and it was terrible.

This still makes me mad.

>tfw the hypnodisc guys said they were prepping and entry for series 9, and now it's series 10 and nothing

1 hour lads

Gabriel 2 better get its shit beaten out of it. It was a bag of wank first time round as well.

I remember one multi bot that tried jewing the rules by having one just run away and be unable to get hit.

who /grannysrevenge/ here?

I don't remember this shit

who /panicattack/ here?

Sergeant, get the flamethrower

Was it always on at 8 or have we got like a better time now, as it's doing so well?

1st new series was 8, last was 7, now we back to 8

I think it was 7 last year

behefail pls go and stay go

10 MINUTES LADS

PLACE YOUR BETS

First for Angela's pubic mound.

chaos 2 best bot

>"oh yeah there'll be format changes"
>not really any except for there being a ten-way battle for the Final wildcard slot instead of a judge's decision

Sounds cool but I can't be fucked with a load of wrecked robots barely limping through the head-to-head part.

>He doesn't remember Thor going through 5 battles with nothing but sellotape holding it together
Shit was glorious

>Behemoth (Persistent veteran shovelbot)
Will we be getting another salt avalanche?

are those foxic faggots also back this season? I hated those guys

I'm ready ladzzzzzzz.

I want here to sit on my face and then take a big steaming dump on my chest

Craig is on the Apex team this series

I hope Jason does better this season.
His autism is always charming to see

Think we'll get any more cheeky camera tilts?

I think that's what the shovel is for.

WHO #DONALDTHUMP HERE

I don't think I actually watched all of the last series, it felt watered down compared to how it used to be.

Why are they showing some latinos protesting? Is my stream that far behind?

BASED

It's because of Thump obviously

>tfw watching on iplayer so 2 minutes behind
Fug, gotta avoid the thread for spoilers

>are Craig on the Radio 2 ad
Fuck, lads...

It was underwhelming. Pretty much every robot was fucked after the melee every time, so it was just repair jobs and disappointing breakdowns all the time.

Nah, you're good

>behemoth
FFS ( _ )

I think Tvplayer is a minute or so further ahead than iPlayer. I only use iplayer for on demand, never live.

Gonna eat some butterscotch angel delight whilst I watch

>Gabriel
I don't have a Penn image that's sufficiently derisive

Who is /ourbot/?

...

>FLIHPEEEEEHHHHHHHH

Behemoth. Ant deserves justice

Still annoyed by that decision. Their driver was good, but that was pretty much all they had going for them.

Thor.

Cringe

omg this donald trump gimmick just end urself mate what a lame hting to do

Fuck off

mc darth sidius

This is what life would be like if we had a war with machines. There's no way we'd even be able to win.

Quality battle lads

Lmao Donald Thump is dead, faggot

>3 bots immobilised
What the fuck

This cunt

They got rid of the interviews in the booths because they were "awkward" apparently.

Reminder lads.

>it's a robots stop working after 20 seconds episode

Why do people still watch this shit, it's all that ever happens. Imagine the sad cunts that go up to Scotland to watch this live. Sitting around for hours on end to wait for 10 seconds of "action"

Sabretooth looks like it belongs on Gradius. I'm not as hyped for this season as before though given that the majority of the show is the producers putting on airs rather than actual combat I suppose it makes sense. The BBC's habit of overproducing and over-dramatizing series is annoying at best, still nice to see a new season. Thoughts so far?

BEHEMOTH WINS

Wasn't Behemoth's driver an absolute manbaby?

They were the best part
>Angela trying not to look weirder out by autists
>touching them to make them uncomfortable

>you will never strip that jumpsuit off Angela Scanlon

They showed a replay of him storming out last season, yeah

cherub won over them because the team of full of kids and he walked off in disgust

>older brother is Kylo Autism

>fancy businessman spends 8k on robot
>one hit on behemoth and it shits the bed
Predictable

Thor when

He walked off because his teammates chose the shitty grabber weapon for the fight, not because they lost to kids.
