## Fight history

### **Hexbug Hell season 1**

#### Tombstone vs Witch Doctor V1

The fight began with both robots spinning up and meeting in the middle. Witch Doctor managed to take off Tombstone's top panel while it was pirouetting. The majority of the fight was Tombstone trying to take off Witch Doctor's top panel and Witch Doctor maneuvering out of the way. Witch Doctor then got a strong push in and got Tombstone out of the arena giving the win to Witch Doctor.

#### Tombstone vs Bronco

The fight started with Tombstone spinning up and losing it's top panel. Tombstone got around to the side of Bronco (due to Bronco's poor driving) and took off the back wedge. Tombstone then hit the wall and lost it's remaining panels. Tombstone then got stuck on the low inner wall a bunch of times and was freed by Bronco trying to get an OOTA. The fight went the full 3 minutes and Tombstone won by judges decision and Bronco was eliminated.

#### Tombstone vs BYOB FBS

The fight started with both robots spinning up and attacking. A lot of the fight was weapon to weapon hits. Eventually, the FBS managed to push Tombstone onto the wall and get it high sided. Tombstone was freed because the FBS wanted the OOTA and the FBS was served instant karma when it got stuck on its own panel when it got knocked off. Tombstone won by KO and the FBS was out.

#### Tombstone vs Lumaside

The fight started with Lumaside spinning up and losing its blade. Tombstone rushed in and took off one of Lumaside's panels. Tombstone then lost one of its panels and took off Lumaside's other panel. However, Lumaside didn't give up and it pushed Tombstone into the inner wall where it got stuck on its blade. Lumaside won by KO and Tombstone was out.

### **Hexbug Hell Quarantine Edition**

#### Rumble 1

Number of robots: 13 (14 if you count Thunder and Lightning seperately)

The fight started with everyone spinning up. When everyone met in the middle, all hell broke loose. Lumaside, Tombstone, Minotaur, the BYOB Silver Drum, and the BYOB Disc immediately lost parts while Lumaside was lifted on top of Supernova. The BYOB Silver Drum quickly lost its other panel to Bite Force while Lumaside, Witch Doctor V3, Supernova, and Lightning were fighting each other. While this was happening, another group was formed from Minotaur, The Berg, Gigabyte, and Thunder. The groups then spit apart and all the robots went after someone else. Lumaside then spun up and delivered a shot to Lightning. While the group of Witch Doctor V1, the BYOB Silver Drum, the BYOB Disc, Lumaside, Thunder, and Witch Doctor V3 were slugging it out, Gigabyte got its weapon going and charged The Berg, and Bite Force tangled with the BYOB FBS. Bite Force then went after Tombstone while Witch Doctor V3 went after Supernova and Minotaur. By this point, Supernova and Tombstone were fighting it out while most of the robots had formed a group in the corner. By the time that the group had largely broken up, it was abundantly clear that Thunder was suffering from Drive problems. Bite force was going after Gigabyte while being harassed by Witch Doctor V1. Lumaside, Supernova, and the BYOB Disc teamed up for a pincer attack on Tombstone. Lightning pressed an attack on the BYOB FBS which caused it to lose a tread. The Berg was briefly trapped in a mass of discarded panels and other robots before it freed itself. Witch Doctor V1 came in from behind and tried to remove Thunder's armor panel, but ultimately failed and moved on to find their next prey. The final 10 seconds began being counted down and everyone got desperate as a result. Tombstone quickly went after the BYOB Disc and bounced off of it, but no further offenses came from anyone because the fight was ***over***. After a few days of deliberation and rewatching, Lumakid100 decided that the winner of this fight was Bite Force due to it being the most active throughout the fight and most dominant in the shoving matches that ensued.

#### Rumble 6

Number of robots: 18 (19 if you count Thunder and Lightning seperately)

The fight started with every spinner spinning up and every flipper and hammer priming their weapon. When everyone met in the middle, Bronco tried to flip Witch Doctor V1, but failed. A fairly large group continued to harass Bronco for some time. Bronco then escaped and flipped the BYOB FBS. After that Bronco went after the BYOB Disc who wasn't keen on letting history repeat itself. Bite Force then redirected Bronco into the wall while it was having small drive problems. While this was happening, Mr. Shellshock was being targeted by Witch Doctor V1, The Berg, and SOKhaos. Meanwhile, the BYOB Axe targeted Bronco and made the fatal mistake of driving in front of it. The BYOB Axe was flipped, had trouble self righting, and Bronco threw it out of the arena. Bronco went after Lumaside next and quickly dispatched it by throwing it out of the arena. Bronco then tried to throw Supernova out of the arena, but Minotaur drove under it as it was being flipped. Bronco then flipped Minotaur and that managed to get Supernova off of it and out of the arena. Bronco then went after the BYOB FBS which was long gone at this point and was pushed over to Bronco's wall. Bronco quickly threw out the BYOB FBS, then flipped Tombstone. Bronco then went after Bite Force who was boxed in, and threw it out too. The fight went to a judges decision where Bronco won due to having the highest KO count.

While this was happening, The Berg's side panel was compromised and hanging by a thread. When the groups split, Bronco flipped Beta who then self righted. Tombstone then attacked Bronco as its flipper was retracting from a flip attempt on Mr. Shellshock, this resulted in Bronco clamping down onto Tombstone's bar which prompted an unstick. After the unstick, Blacksmith started Targeting Bronco. Bronco was then boxed into the wall by Witch Doctor V1 who Bronco then targeted. Witch Doctor V3 tried to save Witch Doctor V1 by ramming Bronco as it was flipping Witch Doctor V1, but it was too late as Bronco had already pinned Witch Doctor V1 on top of the wall.

The now immobile Witch Doctor V1 was then targeted by the BYOB Flipper in an attempt to throw it out of the arena.
