The other bot managing to tank those hits was unexpected. Pepe Silvia is such a beast. I love when it goes up on it's tippy-toes and daintily inches towards opponents.
Pepe uses a pin and slot shuffler mechanism similar to that used on the beetle weight robot Silent Spring. It takes a bigger step forwards than it lifts up which helps to smooth out the motion. There's always two legs per side making contact with the floor when it's in the optimal orientation. The bike tire tread also helps to keep it quiet.
Although the weight bonus for shufflers was a big part of this bot, it just would not look the same with wheels. This is the most effective shuffler I have seen. Nice design Luke.
No clue how you're supposed to approach a bot like Silvia. It's such a strange shape and the shufflers are too durable to be considered a weak point or something to target, but for most bots they're the only thing they can target at all.
Considering how ridiculously hard Pepe hits, props to EVA for tanking that many hits. Great job to Pepe though! Always love your walkers, they're so entertaining to watch, if terrifying.
That right there is the mail. Now lets talk about the mail. Can we talk about the mail, please Mac? I've been dying to talk about the mail with you all day, okay? This whole box is Pepe Silvia! I got boxes full of Pepe! But here's the thing Mac, Pepe doesn't exist. So I start marching my way down to Carol at H.R. and what do I find when I get there? Not a single g.d. desk. This whole place is a g.d. ghost town. Half of these people don't even exist.
EVA Seems kinda useless if all it can do is ram........ anything with a weapon is liable to beat it.....I think it was razor on robot wars that proved that.... that spide grapple thing whent through 1/4" inch steel plate... was obvious nothing would survive it..... and so they became the champions..... with a lame bot and the strongest weapon....
Geez At least EVA does best in control, some bots are extremely awkward to control sometimes Razer was quite the feet of engineering, also not lame it was cool at the time and its still cool And also why here when you mock bots, some bots beat others with design like Pepe sliva and EVA EVA does what any wedge does but couldn't because Pepe Silva is 90% weapon that hits pretty hard, Good luck trying to control that

2:17 might be suboptimal in terms of weapon reach but I love it when Pepe walks on the tips of the legs. It's like a crab of doom.
It doesn't move well on the tippy toes. But it sure looks cool.
I'm always surprised by how quiet Pepe is when moving. I'm used to shufflers being a lot more clattery.

this is why i love smaller combat robotics leagues, the drivers and engineers aren't afraid to be goofy and have fun with it
more lack of control I'm thinking... Razor never went wonky
Kudos to Eva for staying in the fight and lasting. Pepe is terrifying. Now I’m going to have nightmares of black shuffling death crabs.
my favorite sleep paralysis demon 🤘

Aww thanks Russ!
Pepe seriously looks like one of the headcrabs from Half Life, it's awesome

Good fight from Eva. I would say they are winning at the 1min remaining mark
Probably a win for Pepe following the closing minute but it was very close. Great control & aggression from EVA.
You didnt include who won wtf. Why two angles but no results? 👎
Pepe ❤
