> "*My favourite Battlebots team ever! I admire all of Jason's bots throughout both the classic and reboot era. Some of his bots like Dr. Inferno Jr. did admirably well, some like Towering Inferno, Missing Link, and The Disk O' Inferno did not do so well. But still some great and memoizable bots!*"
> — Robin Ward's comment for the Infernolab team.
>

The team is originally based off of a one man BattleBots team led by Jason Dante Bardis during his glory days from LV1999 to ABC Season 2. Though both teams use identical Flaming Gear logos, the Infernolab from the Dragoma series is meant to be a skateboarding / combat robotics team unrelated to Jason's team. Some of the members reflect off of their real life counterparts in appearance and personality.

## Trivia

* Team Infernolab's logo is inspired and modeled after two separate logos: The flaming gear dragon (Mirage Fafnir from *Beyblade Burst*) and the Flaming Gear from (*The Infernolab BattleBots*.)
* The team originating from Zenin reflects off of Jason Bardis' vacation to Tokyo and Akihabara in 2010. This piqued inspiration for Ward to create the team, Infernolab.
* The team's motto *Abandon all hope ye robots who enter* references to the translated inscription on the gates of hell, *Abandon all hope, ye who enters there*. from *Dante's Inferno*.
* The old Flaming Gear logo is used in *Dragoma Exivus* and *Dimensions* while *Dragoma Inferno* uses both logos for the team.
* The gear used in the new Infernolab logo is based off of the one used on the flag of Turgi, a province in the kanton of Aargau, Switzerland.
* If the old logo is rotated 180 degrees, it will resemble an octopus.
* All 3 members except for Christian and Mizuchi wield a bow type weapon. Only Wolfberg is known to have a lance instead while Mizuchi wields a tome.
* The team was previously known as "Inferno Fang" before it was reverted to Infernolab.
