## Overview

Nubert is Delta Robotics’ NHRL beetleweight entrant. It is a FingerTech Beater Bar with a red-painted weapon. To fit the team’s Undertale and Deltarune-based theme, Nubert is named after Deltarune’s background character of the same name. However, Nubert has some Spamton-themed elements, with a wedge configuration with Spamton’s face on it. Nubert comes with the regular FingerTech Beater Bar forks as well as a hinged fork configuration. The team also has a SMEEEEEEEEEE-inspired wedge with “NUBEEEEEEEERT” drawn on it. Nubert’s final configuration (the one with the Spamton face) is a wedge split down the middle for the primary weapon to get more purchase and not be overly defensive. Nubert is accompanied by a “CD Bagel” Hexbug BattleBots toy covered in a paper wrap to resemble a bagel. Nubert is slated for NHRL July 2022, an event that Cole Wilson has longed to attend.

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League July 2022

Delta Robotics made its long-awaited debut to NHRL with Nubert fighting Gator Robotics beetleweight Hyperdrive. Nubert showed up to the event without any ground game configurations aside from the kit forks and without the CD bagel minibot. In Nubert’s debut match, it was box-rushed but it’s weapon managed to get up to speed and flip Hyperdrive around until they decided to leave the spinner to die, giving Nubert the win via KO.

Nubert’s next opponent would be a major challenge in the Brazilian Sombra. Despite making a careful approach, Nubert was quickly tossed through the air until it’s forks were bent and it’s belt was gone. Nubert tapped out, giving the win to Sombra.

A crippled Nubert then fought 1st Law in an unaired Cage 5 battle. Despite getting its drive and weapon working for the match after such a brutal beating, Nubert’s weapon went down quickly and so did one of their drive motors. Eventually, Nubert tapped out due to the debilitating damage.

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League September 2022

    Nubert v1.3’s first fight would be against William Marchese with Sea Dragon’s Roar. The fight started with some fire traded between the two bots, but Nubert started to take the upper hand by throwing Sea Dragon's Roar around multiple times. Despite doing so well, Nubert powered off unexpectedly and was knocked out. The problem was diagnosed to be a faulty switch, and the team was unprepared for this and couldn't fix it. This forced Delta Robotics to come into their match still sporting this problem.
Nubert would then fight Stag Beetle Bot in Cage 6. Although Nubert was shoved around and pinned for the majority of the fight, it managed to score serious points in the damage category by shearing off the entire right side of Stag Beetle Bot's plow and nearly throwing them to the ceiling. However, Nubert's wheels started to slip due to problems with the hubs, and Nubert was finally put into submission by a ram from Stag Beetle Bot, eliminating Delta Robotics early.

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League November 2022

Nubert v1.8 kicked off November 2022 with a tough match against Mirror Finish. Nubert managed to send Mirror Finish to the ceiling in an exchange of blows. Despite snapping a weapon belt, Nubert stayed dominant and won a judges decision.

Nubert was next up against the notorious Vector kit Spartan. This fight went terribly for Nubert, as it was absolutely torn apart, but hung in there for over half the match. Eventually, they tapped out, sending them to the losers bracket.

Nubert’s next fight was with the Rochester University bot Larry 2.0. Nubert ended up quickly disabling Larry 2.0’s spinner and knocking a wheel off, forcing them to tap out.

Nubert moved on to face fellow beater bar BotCat. This fight was very close, as Nubert managed to control the fight but was popped into air several times. However, Nubert won a close judges decision.

Nubert’s next fight was with Peter Garnache and the notorious Ablation Retro. Nubert was thrown around during this match, but pushed Ablation Retro around a lot. Ablation Retro eventually lost drive but was saved by the bell, and Nubert just barely lost a judges decision.

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League March 2023

Nubert finally returned to NHRL March 2023 with a rush-hour rebuild. Their first opponent was the memebot MilkTankette from Tamara Doherty, builders of the 12lber MilkTank.
