Bloodsport

Bloodsport in Season 4 with its new blade

**Bloodsport** is a robot that is currently competing in Lego Battlebots. It is built by **Team Bots 'n' Stuff** along with their other entry, **Retrograde**. Ever since it first appeared in Lego Battlebots, it has been a black and red 4 wheel drive bot armed with a horizontally spinning blade.

Bloodsport has a rich history in Lego Battlebots, starting out its career with a win over Retrograde before losing to **Hydra** in Season 1. It lost a close match to Whiplash in Season 2 before wining three fights in the *Fourth of July Tournament* only to lose to **HyperShock.**

In its 1st 4 competitions and it's first 2 Fight Nights, it was armed with three front wedges and two mean-looking eyes. However, when it got the confirmation that it was facing SawBlaze in Season 4 episode 1, the team switched out the original wedges for four low front forks. This worked food for them as well as, although it's weapon broke, it beat Bombshell (2016), which also has a wedge.

Its weapon was upgraded after the S4 qualifiers to be more sturdy, because the old blade was prone to breaking after several heavy shots. It sacrificed a bit of power in this move, but since the weapon is more reliable, it technically makes it more powerful because it does more damage over time.

### Robot History

#### Season 1

After beating Retrograde in a Fight Night, Bloodsport took on **Hydra**. Bloodsport spun up, but Hydra immediately rammed it into the wall, rushed it into the screws, and flipped it over. Hydra then attempted to flip Bloodsport again. When he did, he nearly threw Bloodsport out of the arena. Only two more flips took Bloodsport out of the arena.

#### Fourth of July Tournament

Bloosdsport's first fight in this tournament was against Daisy Cutter. Bloodsport immediately hit Daisy Cutter with its spinner three times. This appeared to immobilize Daisy Cutter. Bloodsport then hit it and put it on top of the screws, but not before driving itself onto them to get Daisy Cutter out. Bloodsport then faced Sidewinder. Sidewinder deflected the first two shots from Bloodsport before Bloodsport spun up and tore out Sidewinder's blade. Sidewinder stopped moving after that.

Bloodsport then advanced to the Semifinals, where it faced **SlamMow!**. SlamMow deflected a shot from Bloodsport and tried to lift it up, but failed. SlamMow took the next three shots relatively well, as it has currently taken no damage. SlamMow then got in a successful lift. However, Bloodsport spun up again and SlamMow lost a grabbing arm, and then lost a drive pod. SlamMow attempted to get some control, but Bloodsport continued its blood bath by tearing off another drive pod. Soon SlamMow was done for.

Bloodsport faced **HyperShock** in the Finals. HyperShock started out well, deflecting a shot from Bloodsport and putting it in the screws. Bloodsport then hit the rear end but did no damage. HyperShock then got in a hit with its spinner. HyperShock then started trying to overwhelm Bloodsport, as it rammed Bloodsport into the corner and showed it a few walls. HyperShock spent the rest of the match dominating Bloodsport and eventually got it out.

#### Season 2

Bloodsport's first and only match in Season 2 was against Whiplash. Whiplash deflected a shot from Bloodsport before lifting it up twice. Bloodsport then stripped off a wheel on Whiplash, but Whiplash then flipped him over. Bloodsport then lost a wheel as Whiplash lost some armor. Whiplash stayed aggressive, though, and flipped Bloodsport over when its weapon broke. Whiplash then lifted it out.

#### Season 3

After beating **Skorpios** in a Fight Night, Bloodsport lost to Rotator in an exhibition match.

#### Season 4

Bloodsport returned with some upgrades for Season 4, and faced SawBlaze in the first main event of the season. SawBlaze started out well with great control by throwing Bloodsport into the screws. SawBlaze then controlled Bloodsport into the wall before Bloodsport ripped off a fork. Bloodsport didn't get a good shot in for the rest of the match, and SawBlaze then broke its blade and threw it out.

Bloodsport then fought Bombshell (2016). Bombshell started out well as he rammed Bloodsport into the wall and got a wheel off. Bloodsport then spun up its weapon and tore out both pieces of side armor. Bombshell deflected more shots before it got flipped, but quickly self-righted. Although Bloodsport's blade broke, it pushed Bombshell out.

Bloodsport then fought **Yeti** in its last match. When the fight started, Bloodsport spun up, but did no damage to Yeti in the first 3 shots. However, Bloodsport delivered a direct shot to Yeti's drum, which broke part of it. The fight didn't get much better for Yeti as Bloodsport shredded the rest of its drum, but Yeti countered with a pair of lifts before Bloodsport tore off a wheel and flipped it. Bloodsport then eventually tore off the other wheel, and Yeti, who could barely move at this point, was KO'd.

Bloodsport, with a now upgraded weapon, then faced Tungsten in the Round of 32. When the fight began, Bloodsport's weapon wasn't reaching Tungsten's disc, and it was hard to get a hit in on the front. Tungsten then carried it to the pulverizer. Bloodsport, however, then got in a hit that broke Tungsten's weapon. Another piece of the weapon came off soon after. Now Bloodsport carried Tungsten to the pulverizer and landed a big shot to the rear end. By this point, Bloodsport knew all the points on Tungsten to hit. He then tried to spin up, but pieces of its weapon went flying everywhere. Thankfully the weapon wasn't unbalanced, and Bloodsport landed more shots before taking an eternity to flip Tungsten using the screws, taking the KO.

Bloodsport then took on the 3 seed, Mad Catter, in the Round of 16. Mad Catter used its wedge for this fight, and immediately box rushed Bloodsport. Bloodsport tried to spin up, but then was taken to the screws. Mad Catter kept control of the fight at the moment, soon tearing out a wheel. Bloodsport was finally able to spin up, and tore out a wheel on the Cat. On the next hit, another wheel and the left side armor was gone. Mad Catter tried getting to Bloodsport again, only to have parts of the wedge torn off. However, Mad Catter was able to get Bloodsport in the screws, and somehow flipped it. As Bloodsport tried to self-right, he ended up stuck on the wall. This gave Mad Catter the win by KO.

Wins: 9
Losses: 6
