Kraken vs SOW fight photo:
 
Holy fuck, Kraken got a bite.  

 
Whiplash vs Texas Twister:  

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
Railgun MAX is not 4-0. It’s still going to face off Free Shipping next episode.

@Background Pony #EE55  
Yeah, that was my bad, for some reason, I thought they were 4-0.

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
I think they will be, soon.

@Background Pony #EE55  
Yeah, we’ll just have to wait and see once next week rolls around.

The episode was great as always, though with so many unaired fights, they’ll have to consider uploading them to YouTube; BattleBots have their own YouTube channel, they need to make it happen.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
They will and I’m going to be looking forward to see how those fights went in full.

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
Yeah. And methinks next season there’ll be an even bigger roster. So much so that they’ll have to start expanding to Round of 32 instead of the usual Round of 16. And even have a second giant nut, known as the “Second Chance Championship”, just to make them fair.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Heh, only time will tell.

It’s weird that Sharkoprion hasn’t appeared in any of the matches whatsoever, even though it has indeed showed up in Season 4. Did they decided to back out altogether? I’m surprised none of the show’s hosts even mentioned about Sharkoprion.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
They have a single exhibition match, same goes for Nightmare.

oooh Bronco vs Hydra!  
Flipper Bot FIGHT!
 
this gonna be awesome!

Spoiler for the main event:  
And Bronco is out.

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
That didn’t spoil anything, though. Bronco will not be selected either 0-4 or 1-3.

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
The King is Dead, Long live the King

This’ll be an interesting match-up. It’s a real shame Bronco is outclassed by Hydra, who had 4 wins, all by knockout.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
It will and yeah, though it does make sense.

Well. The season was going well, though half of the robots barely made anymore appearances. One such robot, Electric Ray, did entered but had never participated in any matches whatsoever. Same with Sharkoprion who also entered but never took part in any of the matches. Methinks the next season really needs to add Round of 32, and even feature the second chance tournament. There’s a huge field of robots entered yet only have room for 16, which is a bit of a disappointment IMHO.

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
Electric Ray ended up suffering the same failure that Raven did last season.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
Did it? Damn. What about Sharkoprion tho?

@Th3-Br0nyN34D  
They have an exhibition match, I assume it’ll be next week, but don’t quote me on that.

Fair enough. Other robots that had decent wins never made anymore appearances (with Extinguisher having only won one fight and that was it). I assume they had similar issues like Electric Ray went through?
