Me two...

[Lil' Lavery]

Well, at least this isn't as bad as when team 25 gave like a 24 hour countdown until their robot reveal. :rolleyes:

That looks like a beast of a robot. I can't wait to look at it more closely in person.

[Electronica1]

:eek: That robot is epic! Great job.

[=Martin=Taylor=]

Too bad you can't compete with both those robots on the same alliance...

Imagines Charybdis1 endlessly cycling HP balls over the truss to Charybdis2 endlessly firing them into the goal... all without moving

[LDiDomenico]

Love the robot. I can't wait to see it in person this weekend at Northern Lights.

Practice robots name is Scylla.

But yes that would be awesome.

[barn34]

Looking sweet, guys! Definitely looking forward to playing with you guys again in Wisconsin. I think GARE-E would definitely like to befriend a Charybdis. They'd be sweet playmates. ;)

Best of luck to you guys!

[Tyler Olds]

Thanks for all the compliments everybody!

I forgot to post this contest so I will do it now:

it's nocturne from league of legends

[McWilliamsK17]

The laugh is from Nocturne from LoL. It is really loud though compared to in game.
I can't wait to see you guys at Wisconsin. It should be a fun regional! :)

[wesbass23]

Jeez you guys are fast. I got all excited that I recognized the laugh and then I scrolled down...

[Tyler Olds]

Wow, I should have known there were enough LoL players here, but I did not think people would recognize it right away.

PM me your mailing address and shirt size!

[Justin Montois]

Fantastic robot from an incredible team! Love the creativity.

[Kevin_Morris]

A very capable looking robot as always. I could see that turret coming in handy for the assist game. Any competitive advantage you can get regarding assists is great.

Mind if I ask what the story is behind "#avoid118hypetrain" :confused:

You'll have to ask Nik to get the best answer as he put it in the film, but its supposed to be about not getting over hyped about a robot just based on their reveal video. Every robot looks like a world champion in their reveal video, we all need to prove it on the field. And seeing as 118 puts out the best videos every year, they get hyped the most(though they generally back it up).

[BigJ]

Looking good! We'll be cheering you on from the shop this weekend. See you week 4!

[Cataclysmatic]

Watching the video I think I got more interested in the potential... already knowing Wave is strong, but how strong?

Does this "turret" have sensors and such to automatically stabilize when pushed around? Or at least a strong drive train to limit pushing as much as possible?

Can't wait to see this beast in action in Wisconsin... being more defensive/driver now... I'm not sure which side I want to be on either, the fun of facing it/defending/taming the beast :P or playing with it... I can't wait :)

See you in Wisconsin, Charybdis seems like a massive threat... in a good way haha

[D_Price]

One very awesome robot I do say. I am in love with the 360 rotation of the arm.
