After beating Slap Box, our next step in the bracket was against the rookie horizontal spinner Malice. Malice had just beaten Tracer, and had been dishing out big hits for the whole event. HUGE has historically struggled with horizontal spinners, and we were excited to be able to give our Tegris parts their first real test in the arena.
HUGE vs. Slap Box - 2020 Fight #5 - Bounty Hunters
Bounty Hunters? Bounty Hunters! This is a new format for Battlebots, with a “star” bot posing as the bounty, and 8 challengers fighting in a bracket for the chance to take them on. We were placed into the Witch Doctor bounty, with a first-round match against rookies Slap Box. We were familiar with their test-bed for Slap Box, having fought it with our 30lb Sportsman robot ‘BEEESS??’.
