I know this version of X-Terminator had some luck in its Heat Final, but holy shit they made a monster of a robot. That spinner was legit, and it took out its biggest weakness four matches in a row. It's a shame it was too broken to do much against Tornado. A fully working X-Terminator had a chance.

I’m at least happy X-Terminator didn’t let Tornado get third without a fight, they knew they were getting 4th from the very beginning of the battle with them but they were willing to put on a show with a hobbling machine. Fantastic Robot, love em’

Still in my top 5 favourites, I absolutely adore this iteration of X-Terminator.

A perfect example at around 21 minutes of why vertical spinners can benefit from having a 'feeder' wedge beneath the disc. Bulldog Doodah's floor-scraping front flipper should have been perfect against X-T's high-mounted weapon, but that feeder wedge lifted Bulldog Breed's snout just enough for the disc to hit it, buckle it, shred it, and leave the poor ol' dawg toothless. Excellent footage for fans of design evolution!

Another example of that is Monsoon (UK Vertical Spinner) in Battlebots. It had "Feeder forks" on the sides of it's vertical bar that served the same purpose you just described. And it showed in Monsoon's fight against Red Devil in Battlebots.

A great example of how much it affected the bot is also after the Typhoon fight, he lsot the feeder wedge and just got manhandled by a low profile bot.

I kind of do miss the low walls that allowed robots to be flipped out of the arena. The high walls are nice for security, but they don't allow for that kind of knockout.

The trouble is that a lot of modern Flipper robots throw robots 6-12 feet in the air, let alone verticals, modern robot wars would of been all OOTA with a low wall

Remember watching this stuff as a kid, had one series on disk that I must have rewatched thousands of times

Damn this is so much better than battlebots lol, just discovered robot wars 😂

Had the privilege to see the one of the Extreme 1 versions of X-Terminator (the version which fought Panic Attack in a Vengeance) way back when. As much as I was extremely hyped at their performance in Series 7.. X-Terminator without an axe will always be a weird sight to me. It had an excellent flywheel which only weighed 15kg at the time, fairly light compared to some flywheels we were seeing then.

When that disc is shown near the end of the fight with Typhoon on Exterminator, that Exterminator disc wobbled side to side badly. Oh my. Something came loose on one of those massive hits.

X-Terminator reminds me of an old First World War tank, like the German A7V; big, imposing, slow and maybe a little clumsy but definitely not to be underestimated especially in the right hands.

they win in my heart, really nice machine !

The lead-in music sounds like tiny bits of Verde's Requiem, 2nd movement, the Dies Irae.

This version of X-Terminator was definitely better.

Awesome fights and great robot builds but I don't think it was fair after he beat Cinagro the match should have been over and not letting the house bots go in and just try and destroy Cinagro cause he didn't have a fight with them and now he has to spend more money than he should have to fix his bot to come back or maybe even have to build a new one because of it. Just my opinion i understand it's a battle and bots will be destroyed but the destruction should only come from his opponent cause they are expensive to built fix and maintain. Any way thank you for reading my comment and have a wonderful day/night.

Blooper Sphoof I understand the nature of the argument for them, but I’ve just always felt that another human controlled robot inside the arena, besides those competing themselves, throws unnecessary variables into the mix versus static hazards such as pits, flippers or fire pits. As someone that actually made the jump from MMA to robot combat from Kenny Florian’s involvement in BB, I suppose I have a different view than most veteran enthusiasts, which is understandable. Didn’t mean to come off hostile!
