@@LukeQuin you should reinforce the drum, didn't realize it was that fragile until i saw this match. to me it seemed like something inside the bot got hit and that's why it lost power
@@SethiozProject The black parts of the drum are just 3D printed TPU dust covers. They have been redesigned to stay on better. Not enough weight to make them any stronger. The robot lost power because an internal wire inside of a battery pack broke off one of the cells. I've never seen a failure like that before. Might try to add some strain relief to the battery wires, but its real tight inside there.
Absolutely! Can't believe it even stood a chance let alone won. Out-weighted by Pepe, Pepe has a lot newer architecture / overall design and somehow the little guy won anyway. Kudos to it but I'm still gonna buy stock in pepe.
Pepe lost his main armor. A single structure is more reliable than screwed or riveted parts. For a small detail he lost the fight. It was a good fight.
It took about 6 hours to get it back into fighting condition. It was painful, but when you fly half way across the country for a two day event you can’t give up.
Win or lose, a Pepe Silvia match is always spectacular.
I'm really impressed with that shuffle mechanism! well done.
many legs were lost in battle. But they never stopped shuffling till the robot lost power.
@@LukeQuin I mean, it's not broke if you can still move ;-)

Let me give you some advice about this. Oh wait, I've never even built a lego bot. You just kick ass and this is awesome. Bad break. Loved the show!
That wasn’t a box rush, that was a jumpscare.
Surprised that kablooey could take so many cross arena hits
Those were some incredible hits, Kablooey Tango is a monster of a featherweight. Until Pepe died that was too close to call.
That's one tough horizontal spinner to take so many weapon on weapon hits with Pepe.

New meaning to, “I got boxes full of Pepe!”
Wow that was VIOLENT! Excellent fight!
Great fight! Kablooey is a beast, but I think you may have gotten them without the battery issue.
Amazing fight. Comment for the algorithm to upvote this video.
Just amazing.

Tough battle. Damages were heavy. Tango was rugged enough to come out on top. I was surprised. Thumb up for the players and their machines.
Engineers* and their machines. Credit where credit is earned.
Had them in the first half
Needs more weapon, apparently

So awesome! But just thinking about the amount work you did or will put in to getting pepe back to fight shape is a little cringe worthy.
