0:49 BiteForce literally shreds Icewave's Satan Blade to bits BattleBots cameraman: Let's get a close-up of this audience member's iPhone video from 100 ft away
Not to mention she's recording vertically 😕
The cameraman didnt know that was gonna happen stupid. The editor chose to cut to that footage
@@charmainefong9272 stupid?!? Why are you so offended at someone's sarcastic joke? Did your little feelings get hurt? Do you need a juicebox and a nappie? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
@@ManSittinNext2DaMan It's not something the camera guy did. He was just recording crowd footage for probably the entire fight. If this was shown live then it was the operator who chose to switch to that camera's feed. If this wasn't live, then it was the editor who chose to switch to that shot. Also, your reaction to someone calling you "stupid" is hilariously pathetic and over the top. Yet the other guy is the one who is offended and got their feelings hurt? You ever heard of projection?
@@jonathanblanton4642 at least someone has a brain unlike the writer of this comment
the title checks out, this is an atrocious display of editing and sound design
Yeah the fake crowd noise is almost as annoying as Faruq.
@@wvXvxvXvw dont you talk shit about faruq
The stock metal clang noise from grand theft auto every time the robots touch is also absolutely atrocious.
@@Smokin_Snowman ive been there, it sounds like that
@@wvXvxvXvw He's the 2nd best part about this after the bots and tied with Ray Billings!!!
The only thing painful about this fight is the sound effects
And how weak the hamer is
I would be totally fine if they used the raw box sounds and overlaid it with them talking
@@malcolmround8064 they look weak but it shows how durable those heavyweights are. They drop down with 100 pounds of force
They are adding the same 3 Sounds to every hit all the time
@@thegamexplainer8668 100 pounds of force is not a lot
I LOVE how the camera shows some person filming the fight on their phone during the first big hit. I totally watch this to see what the crowd is doing, not what's going on in the arena.
@BattleBots - drop the sound FX please. BB fans are nerds enough that they enjoy true bot sounds not the trigger happy clangs you have added. Put microphones into the arena instead and EQ the raw sound into whatever you want (more bass, more pitch).
What!? You mean those aren't the real sounds? MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE, GOOD GRIEF!
@@joetroutt7425 - lol!
I just realized that in the comment it said BB fans are nerds. Damn! I guess I'm a nerd. Good thing I don't look like one.
This entire video is CRINGE.
@@joetroutt7425 - lol... I am sure everyone thinks you do, aside from yourself.
Guys, just upload the raw footage, it's better.
Amen, no fake sounds, no cuts, just raw action
No thanks... I will take Fake Excitement over Silent and Boring any day.
@@cruzinthru8285 Dub your own videos then
@@cleitonfelipe2092 - Go watch them film it then... No need to Dub, when they did it already.
pure silence is really awkward
Can we not do the clickbait titles? Like dang just say it’s the preseason untelevised event and that would be more interesting-the title makes it seem like it’s from the main TV show.
These are actually post season. All of these were filmed after the season was recorded.
The point is still valid. There was nothing really painful about this fight. Not compared to fights where 'bots are literally cut in half.
... unless you are talking about the pain of the cutaway editing ?
At the beginning in a corner, it says Las Vegas then the date.
I thought this fight was more painful than some of the ones where robots get split in half. Partially, I think it's because ice wave is such a good team, and they absolutely got destroyed, and because bite force just tore like an inch thick weapon bar to pieces! That's crazy! I really like fights where robots get split in half or absolutely torn apart like side winder vs Scorpios, and I see those fights as awesome rather than painful.
Yes it is too painful to watch. Icewave never had the chance to rotate at full speed. Super boring match. And not to mention the weird camera cuts and awful sound. Truly painful to watch.
It seems like Bite force neutralize ice wave weapon by remote control
@@victorbaldonedo5924 looked like it broke upon first impact.
@@donsolos I’d think that until it started spinning again. Something was off with Icewave from the start.
@@official_commanderhale965 Icewave was always a shit robot. Tombstone shows us how a horizontal blade design is done right. Icewave shows us how a horizontal blade design is done WRONG.
@@SergeantExtreme That's a bit extreme, they aren't "shit", but you are right when you say that Tombstone does the horizontal blade design right.
Really enjoying these getting uploaded, but the editing is chronic. Cutting away at important moments is bad, but the stock SFX is just painful - the effect noise for Bite Force hitting Icewave is not only super fake but the SAME ONE each time...
Well, for what it's worth, they're *way* better than than the ones used back in the original series back in the early 2000's lol
*plink*
Don’t forget the FANS have the same sound effects TOO
What the fuck sound effect do you think metal makes when colliding at high speeds?
@@ImNeverOriginal I'm guessing not the exact same soundwave every time. I'm aware there's only so much variety in what metal-on-metal is going to sound like, but this is like a video game...
0:50 did the editor think her camera was better that his ?
It was probably the editors girlfriend
Should immediately break up with someone who takes vertical video.
The title didn't lie.
There is a special place in hell for the guy who filmed edited and put the woman with iphone in the match while biteforce was destroying icewave
Look at the bright side. It’s the largest collection of virgins and neckbeards in the northern hemisphere
When Icewave gets up to speed, the hits can be spectacular. Unfortunately most of their opponents dont let them get up to speed. They need lower gearing or more motor to recover more quickly.
"We need to add in the sound effects but our folder got corrupted" Guy who slammed a metal cabinet door: "I got you covered!"
I remember when this fight was live-streamed and you could hear Icewave’s engine shut down in the first second of the match before Biteforce ever touched it. Must have locked up or something went wrong. Shame we didn’t really get to see what Icewave could do here
Could you guys please stop ruining the fights with lousy stock audio and ridiculous editing? This is not Comedy Central anymore where when two robots collide, you get the stock car crash effect. And we all KNOW you are better than King of Bots and their habit of cutting away to audience reactions every 2 seconds. The most pivotal point of the match, you guys cut to some lady filming from the sidelines. What does that actually accomplish here?
Whine, whine, whine.
This is no editing you are just salty and you are probably a 9 year old
@@subhamaymukherjee1524 they have 213 likes you have zero, i don't think anyone agrees with you
Icewave is the most original bot in the series yet, I love how it works and even more how it sounds... the 2 stroke engine accelerating sound is awesome... sad that we can’t hear it in this video...
A shame we never got to hear Icewave's signature weapon sound.
HRRRMMMMMMMMM
2 stroke pure power
technically we did, just not the one we want to hear... and tbh i might partake in robot wars, the original one, battlebots is the american one
Yeah, they need to actually make a decent blade for that spinner. You put a good temper and heat treat with some high quality steel and it'll never break. Like seriously, the first person to do this is going to have such an advantage. A good quality blade would be practically indestructible, you'd need a tank to break it.
Oh yeah... nothing better than watching the show through the cel phone of someone who is there personally but not watching... Great job, guys! 👍🏻
your right , this was painful to watch . Amazing that somebody was paid to edit this
Damn, I watched it yesterday and needed to see it again. This was too good.
RIP Icewave , one of my favourite bots
2:37 me playing super smash brothers with my little cousin
LOL
Why is everyone in the comments saying it’s fake? It’s clearly not. People have to remake they’re robots right after it’s over. They have every piece of they’re bots so they can repair it. It’s clearly not fake. I like it just the way it is.
3:41 Dude looks like he lost control of his arm for a second there
That move at 2:31 is kinda hilarious. Just a nudge, and the blade is completely nullified.
Forge of fire judges: you see the blade didn’t have a good heat treat so delaminations and a stress fracture was on the blade that’s why the blade was so brittle lol
What the hell is that soundbite they use for BiteForce's spinner striking? Did they get that sound from an N64 game?
BiteForce was just to much after he knocked off the blade of Icewave. The Pulverizer got some action in too. Was fun to watch. Great video
I don't see how this was a painful fight. That was the most methodical fight I've seen. Seeing bite force slowly go to the corner of the other bot to push its spinning blade against the wall was perfect. He could've just full speed rammed him like most people do, but instead, he avoided getting hit while stilling disabling the momentum of the spinner
3:32wait how did he change the view?
they edited the phone screen for some reason
That spiced crowd noise lol
Nice stock sound effects. The box audio is so much better.
Biteforce is probably the best designed bot to go against IceWave. IceWave’s best weapon is it’s blade which is high up and doesn’t allow head on assaults, and it’s sloped design makes flipping it nearly impossible. Biteforce can eliminate it’s blade fairly easily with it’s prime weapon being able to go far and forward, allowing for the blade to be chipped away.
Poor Mark. Comes back for a few fights and gets absolutely obliterated. I’d have been playing dead as soon as I could see that blade on Icewave wasn’t running properly.
Biggest battlebots upsets Witch doctor vs red devil Red devil cuts in witch doctor's battery, making it fire Stinger vs Megatanto Unfair desicion Icewave vs Nightmare Icewave just worked properly and stopped with no reason Poison arrow vs SOW SOW had chances, but after first hit it landed and stuck on the screws Bite force vs Chomp After first hit Bite Force's chain snapped off, making it weaponless. Poison arrow vs Hypershock Hypershock was aggressive the whole fight, but he lost his weapon SOW vs Brutus Brutus puts SOW on its head. Brutus vs Red Devil Brutus burns its motors, and red devil cuts the wedge, doing no damage. Endgame vs Bite Force Endgame had chance to win, when champ stuck on the floor, but he skipped that chance WarHawk vs Endgame vs Brutus The scariest bot on the arena just had no self righting mechanism. Endgame vs SOW One hit. Bombshell vs Tombstone (s03) Tombstone lost its chain and got stuck on it. SOW vs Lock jaw So, SOW started to smoke with no reason, and judges awarded win to lock jaw. Lock jaw vs Bombshell (tournament) One hit and bombshell starts to smoke with no reason. Icewave vs RotatoЯ RotatoR just shredded icewave's engine. 100 likes = part 2
Wish I'd been able to see these broadcast!
Painful video editing and sound effects, plus a clickbait title... What are they doing to battlebots.
Me: Watches this video Also me: *PAIN SOUNDS*
1:36 haha that’s what they thought. Nice play. Nice driving :)
Never thought this would be so entertaining
Thanks for uploading. It's not that easy to find and watch these in Germany asides from YT.
Icewave getting a taste of its own medicine
I swear they're adding that sound effect every time you see a spark.
Those hammers come down with the force of 13 kittens
That was far from painful - there are so many truly good examples of pain to besmirch them with this pale attempt.
Oh, please...I seem to recall one fight from the 2018 season in which Icewave was damn near destroyed despite its power (I forget who it was up against in that bout). By comparison, this is nothing. EDIT: The fight I'm thinking of was against Rotator. Rotator EVISCERATED Icewave and then partly decapitated him as a final flourish. Rotator didn't allow Icewave enough distance so that he could power up and engage his weapon. It's frankly amazing that Icewave was able to make it through the full three minutes...now THAT was an embarrassing fight.
Where did you get this Graphics mod for Robot Arena 2, i was looking for it but i never found it :(
Whoever cut the camera from the match to show audience at key moments should never be allowed in the arena.
I went to battle bots it's too good I love battle bots
Oh Really? ... When and Where did you go to BattleBots?
kzhead.info/sun/oquOgbCqoopqdH0/bejne.html
They need to stop replacing the sounds of the robots hitting and damaging each other and actually put the box audio in there. It makes it sound like a video game.
Where can I get more info about each bot, like specs, weakness and strength of each one, stuff like that
RIP Icewave's wedge and part of Icewave's horizontal spinner
Batalha de robôs com certeza o melhor programa de luta na televisão 👍👍👍👍

E sim mn ele e do brasil so q ele fala inglês
Why are people filming this on their phone?
Because they can? :/
So they can post segments on KZhead and Facebook.
What is the point of the pulverizers? They do absolutely no damage. Same with the ground saws. I get that they give you points, but I really wish those giant hammers actually packed more heat. They don't need to be Chomp level strong, but I want to see them cause just a little harm.
DAYUM!!! BiteForce chopping off that blade like it was an old Jolly Rancher Fire Stix candy.
Discovery at its finest; providing quality content for the internet to see. By spamming stock sounds, muting some of the best audio (Current example: Icewave's motor), and their signature- ...camera cuts at the worst times possible.
Homerboy44 yeah, but this stream isn’t really Discovery
My two favorite bots fighting
Same i want to see this since i started watching battlebot
I would've like it if icewaves weapon actually worked
I almost got my two favorite bots to fight in 2016, Nightmare vs. Tombstone.
Icewave : Damn my spinner is not working Bite force : **smashes in first 10 seconds** Judges : **Already taken decision**
Always a shame when the weapons quit before the bots do. IceWave is a one-bot Demolitions squad when it's working right
Icewave needs an electric motor driving his blade as the gasser never spins up very fast. Otherwise, the jumpy camera work sucks.
But then they'd have to change the name because that's what the "ICE" in "Icewave" stands for
@@selectivepontification8766 Hybridwave
I really wish Icewave was competing this season
Yeah... I'd like to see Rotator shred it to pieces again... The only fight I have seen Icewave do any good, was against that Plastic Bot "Huge", and pretty much every Bot out there has shredded Huge... Really Stupid Design.
CruzinThru 828 you realize that 2/3 of its KOs last year were it splitting a bot in half? And HUGE has a great design, besides against horizontals
@@ziwei3070 - We differ in what we consider "Great Design"... I do not consider an Unwieldy Bot made Mostly of Plastic, with Huge Plastic Wheels, "Great Design"... It took them an entire season to figure out... "Maybe we should get rid of the Spokes and make them Solid?" I have see Huge get Split in Half like 3 times, by Bots I would consider mostly Wimpy... Like Ice Wave. That Bot has so many Flaws, there is not room here to list them all. There is much more to a Bot, than having a High Speed Spinning Blade... as you can see with the biggest of them all, "Tombstone". Neither Ice Wave or Huge would last 30 seconds against Tombstone, yet both Rotator and Witch Doctor kicked it's ass... Rotator still has a bunch of Flaws to work out, but this years model of Witch Doctor is near perfection. They need Armor around their wheels. That is the only Flaw I see in their design.
CruzinThru 828 actually HUGE is a great design. Barely anything can attack it’s chassis, while it can actually attack pretty much anything from above, such as E-teks and stuff. Last season they got split in half by IceWave (who should’ve went 4-0) and their repairs failed in the Bite Force fight. They could’ve easily beat them if it didn’t accidentally split in half because BF’s weapon already broke. It also annihilated trashier bots like Chomp, Jasper, Free Shipping and Subzero. HUGE isn’t really the best against horizontals with a lot of bite, but it was actually the longest to get KOd by SOW. Also, they severely tore up Gigabyte’s shell. I guess we’ll see how well it does against Bronco in tonight’s ME. I don’t know how you think IceWave is bad as well. It can easily destroy bots, like splitting Vanquish in half. It went 3-1 in its qualification rounds last year (like HUGE last year) and was debatably supposed to go 4-0 with a controversial decision against Skorpios. It was also ranked 6th in the main tournament. Also the only reason they are solid is so they can absorb hits from horizontals, so that IceWave thing wouldn’t happen again, and it almost worked (they didn’t split in half because they hugely reinforced their center for season 4). They increased their modularity though, which is good. They actually can change wheels, so you clearly have not seen all its fights. Instead, you’re just judging these bots with unnecessary bias. IceWave and HUGE are solid A tier bots, but I do agree that WD and Tombstone are better than those two bots.
CruzinThru 828 Icewave and Huge made it to the top 16 last year
New England Patriots: We're the best at winning and becoming repeat champions. Bite Force: Hold my beer.
All in favor of Bite Force returning, raise your hand:
✋
*Bite force lightly hits icewave with its wedge* CLANG!!!!!!!!
“That’s why BiteForce is a two-time champion” Did this video just spoil BiteForce not winning the 2019 season?
7jaws7 Lets Hope they were talking about 2015
If Bite Force is so good, why didn't it fight Witch Doctor for the Giant Bolt, in this Live Event? It backed out. Possibly didn't want to give away what happens in the 2019 season? Everyone fought Twice. After Witch Doctor took out Tombstone and Bronco, Bite Force should have fought Witch Doctor for the All Star Giant Bolt. Why didn't it happen?
@@cruzinthru8285 I think the fights were influenced by a vote on Twitch while this was being streamed. Bronco and Witch Doctor got the most votes, then Bite Force and Whiplash. Also had BF backed out, it would have been to give someone else a chance of winning something, let's be honest.
@@davejavu4806 - I have heard that was the case, but how do we know? They could Claim the voters on Twitch picked anyone, we'd never know. I kinds agree with the second part... or it could also be that if Witch Doctor beat Bite Force in these Live Fights, people may be suspicious of the Show Fights. I am no big fan of Bite Force, simply because he has become Boring and Predictable. Like... "Hear comes Bite Force and another 30 second KO." we have seen that over and over... at some point it becomes Mundane and Predictable. He has made his Point... he has the Best Bot... Time to move along. Kinda like the Guy who goes to a Carnival, as he is a Dart Champion, and wants to impress his GF by winning her Big Stuffed Animals... He wins the First night, and the attendant gives him a Panda Bear... Next night he comes with a different girl, and does the same thing... The following night he is back, but the attendant says... "Sorry, no professional Dart Players allowed." Bite Force has Proven he will win every time... it has become Predictable. He does more to discourage New Bot Builders, than the other way around. You should read my comment here... lol www.youtube.com/watch?v=
Bite force one thing i like about em is once they knew they had won,you can tell they held back doing further damage.
bRfc9QgjclrMlc I’m not sure that’s how his driving should be interpreted but sure, let’s go with that, example a: rotator, he seems too hold back in that fight too I’m guessing, wow, very much intrigued I am
I have honestly not seen once the arena hammers do anything. They seriously need to make them stronger
Wait... they muted the female commentators audio.... huh
forget tombstone. whos the 2 time heavy weight champ? whos driver retired biohazard?
We will see if he's the Champ this year... I think not.
@@cruzinthru8285 his only loss was from lucky shot.
Carlo Betrochinni retired Biohazard after Comedy Central season 5 (2003). I wish Biohazard returned. Impressive heavyweight Battlebot with that unique arm gimmick.
@@Falco2762 biohazard continued to compete in smaller competitions. You might find his fight with megabyte.
That was a terrific fight
I closed my eyes so can someone tell me how the match turned lut
soundtrack "awe" sounds.. no thanks
Yes I see iphone 5 series in 2019
man I remember bite force's first win on tombstone beautiful
Icewave last standing still fight until the end. Respect

I kept my eyes open. I'mma have nightmares for a week!
3:31 - never knew iphones can insta-zoom like that. Handy. Also, it must be x-raying through the dude's head. No way you can get that angle.
I couldn't turn it off with my eyes closed,,, so I watched it!!!
3:40 I didn't know Peele was into Battlebots 😂
i guess i shall close my eyes while watching this
I freaking love battlebots
this fight is incredible
Bite Force The exiled king We miss you so much
Producers: "Great idea....Let's start the match and then just put it in the background while we film a random lady playing with her phone!!!!!"
Icewave is so much more reliable than it used to be. Hopefully he goes to an electric weapon so its as reliable as the drivetrain. At least go to a higher stall clutch so the engine can pick up some revs before the blade starts. The blade will spin up faster and the crankshaft will take less damage. It will reduce the damage to the opponent a little, but Icewave can do more damage than it has to in order to win. Trade that extra damage for some reliability and weapon range.
Pretty awesome! But Hypnodisc vs Splinter in RW Series4 was more painful in my eyes!
how can i watch full seasons of battlebots?
Oh, wow. How painful indeed... RIP Icewaynne
Beautiful
2:34 YOU CAN FORGET THAT, PAL! JUST SIT IN THE CORNER AND WATCH ME DESTROY YOU!
Damn Bite Force showin no mercy to Icewave
Remember ghost raptor trolling icewave with a stick?
at least the cameras got a good view of the action
That fight was epic! Go team WPI!🐺🔩🔧
There should be a window in the corner of the screen showing "Manadatory Team Cheerleaders" dressed in bikinis and high heels tickling each other for the entire duration of the match.
It's pretty painful, yeah. Nearly as good as the dullest of Robot Wars fights. It says a lot when you have to add drama by filming audience members filming the 'action'.
Icewave seems like a glass cannon a powerful blade with long reach, but no defense and a abysmal start time
for the first time I actually saw the pulverizers hit the fucking robots
I didn’t think the lawn mower would last that long
