Unfortunately our May run ends here with an intense and close loss to a rematch with William Marchese and Sea Dragon’s Roar! This time it was a fair slugfest. No switch issues this time, it went the full 3 minutes and we just barely lost a judges decision.

We can’t thank the NHRL community enough for supporting us through this journey and we also give a big thanks to our opponents and, of course, our amazing team that has repaired our bot very well after every match. We will not be coming to the June event but we will see everyone in August with Nubert back again and a brand-new collaboration bot with Josh Belanger of Red Hawk fame!!

We successfully made it through a fiery fight in the March event! MilkTankette is down and a new win is on Nubert’s record!

Our 2nd fight of the day was against one of the most superior bots in the entire field….Sombra. This is a team of professional robot builders from Brazil who brought in an impressive robot with a unique tri-tipped eggbeater.

They impressively managed to hit us and then hit us again as we made our way back to Earth. Damage from Sombra included a stretched weapon belt, both forks battered to death, and a good gash in both the left and backsides of our robot. Overall, they were the team that hurt us the most.

However, the Brazilians were very modest and polite, and they seemed happy to fight us. Big shoutout to AGVs Combat for being a great help and lending us a hand (wrench) post-fight.
