From what I understand: A robot that wins each fight will be added to the celebrities’ “teams”. Then we see a complicated battle format board. He’s an actor and he knows nothing about robots.” Murilo Marin of Dark Wolf summed it up best: The crippled Dark Wolf’s team eventually tapped out and gave Atomic Bomb first place.Īlthough not nearly as bad the first battle of Episode 1, this was still an underwhelming and painfully drawn-out fight, marred by the celebrities’ inability to control the robots properly. This is why Robot Wars, BattleBots, King of Bots and every other robot show has a time limit on their battles!ĭark Wolf hit the immobilised Angry Frog, causing some VERY CONVINCING (sarcasm) disapproval from the American team.

By now the fight had been going nearly TWENTY MINUTES and was starting to drag. Dark Wolf then attacked Atomic Bomb but the assault backfired and the aggressor was toppled!ĭark Wolf drove about trying to self-right, only to drive straight into Angry Frog! Dark Wolf eventually self-righted, but encountered control problems, as Angry Frog’s spinning bar caused damage to Atomic Bomb with a few hits.Īngry Frog moved omnidirectionally, yet also ran into manoeuvrability trouble as Atomic Bomb came back for some revenge, but the smoking Angry Frog got away, only to stop again! Atomic Bomb flipped the American robot as it was surprisingly counted out!ĭark Wolf just about managed to move and inflict another hit on Atomic Bomb, but the domed robot was still the most active of the two and managed to flip Dark Wolf again, the Brazilian machine pirouetted itself right again to Overwatch music. The robots sized each other up before Atomic Bomb attacked Angry Frog first. The celebrities took control of the robots and the battle began with the same, half epic countdown followed by the pathetic microwave ping!

However, before said battle even began there was a problem: Lin Geng Xin’s robot, Soul Reaper, a low bodied robot with a Pulsar-style spinner, wasn’t working.

With very little in the way of actual robot fighting and far too much time spent on the celebrity banter, to name a few of the problems.Įpisode 2 kicks off with a lengthy recap of the last episode before we get back to where we were last time: Preparing for a battle.
