  • haha yes! Tornado finally lost! Wohooo! Hate that robot! Cheated in series 6!

  • طريقة مثيرة للاهتمام للرياضة

  • Diotoir's improvements?

    Springs off of his own car and paint a face on the flipper, WHAT A MACHINE!

  • Why does every Tornado video have all the retards whining and bitching about the Series 6 final? =/ ffs.

  • LOL! Diotoir is better at pushing stuff than Tornado?! Tornado should've just retired right there and then, since everyone likes Diotoir better anyway XD

  • Razer i agree had a great WEAPON, it did NOT have the best overall design though, because more than once, how did it lose? Wheel problems, or wedged wrong.

  • Ha! Whenever the Tornado boys get on their high horse about series 6, they should just look at this and remember how rubbish their robot is without resorting to any unsporting tactics.

  • Was hoping Tornado would win D:

  • @BenPurseOfGTM

    Personally, I thought it was great to see Diotoir show those overconfident tools who was boss :3

  • Tornado lost to one of the worst robots in the field. Thats gotta be blow to moral! Go Diotoir! FUCK TORNADO!

  • Why is that women presenter such a shit presenter I mean shes just a waste of time doesnt ask the right questions seems really awkward piece of shit women.

  • @HamasWar3 WTF is wrong with you? She's a great presenter, Julia Reed was the best but Philliper was still very good, if you don't like here then STFU.

  • Everyone one says Diotor is a load of crap and it kinda is... but to get to the final is pretty good :P

    Shame they lost it...

  • Tornado got their comeuppance. :D!

  • no offense but if u lose to Diotoir u are a big failure

  • wow, there's still hatred for tornado? haters gonna hate.....

    

  • officially, my favourite fight in robot wars history

    Serves u right, Tornado

  • Diotiors weapon stuck at the beginning and that was the thing who made them win. Thank you Diotior, for beating the biggest asshole of Robots ever. Thank you.

  • This was 9 years ago and I remember this like yesterday :')

    I still remember myself laughing from shock that Diotior had beaten Tornado XD

  • is it really a surprise there's no dislikes for this? =P

  • 1:22

    It's pronounced 'clon-DAW-kin'.

  • I'm from NI and always supported diotoir and i was amazed how they beat tornado. Great lad's they were funny and grat sportsman

  • PMSL this is the best match in the history of the show, if not definitely the biggest upset in the history of the show. As a Razer fan, I never liked Tornado.

    Funny thing is Diotoir, for all the times they've been caught on fire, is actually quite an underestimated robot: durable and good power. Not only that, what I like about them is no matter if they are winning or losing, they're ALWAYS great to watch.

    "Going all the way", you say? If you mean "Into the pit", I'm right there with you mate!

  • @TheImmortalNerd I always thought Diotoir came too late. It felt like a Season 1 robot to me. Good drivers, powerful, reliable machine, but no srimech.

  • @Galvajon i'm quite surprised that Diotoir never had a srimech as well, it got toppled in series 3 AND series 4 for a start

  • Tornado are the biggest cheaters in Robot Wars

  • @bubbleman79 to be honest typhoon 2's cheating against storm 2 was probably worse by repairing their robot in a middle of a fight while the arena wall was being fixed

  • what is weapon synergy?

  • @ryanst501

    It's a term used for the way the weapons work together. You know, like Dead Metal's saw and pincers, or Sergeant Bash's Claw and Flamethrower, for example.

  • @ryanst501 i think it means that they can work together, because dead metal has claws to trap them, and them a saw to cut them, so they they cleverly work together

  • YES DIOTOIR =D =D loved this battle, it's great for me since diotoir were beaten in the first round of the previous series =D

  • Probably Diotoir's finest hour! = D

  • Epic and unexpected win by Diotoir

  • I do believe it. 4:39

  • acctually it wasn't immobile. that's why it was still moving when diotor pushed it in.

  • It could only move on one side.

  • oh sorry, didn't know. :) but i dont think it deserved to win. diotor was still pushing it all over the place and stood up to tornado numerous times. i believe that diotor would have won on a judges decision

  • How can it not deserve to lose just because of Killalot and Bash? Sorry, but that's just nonsensical.

  • I always hated the use of Sir K and Sarge as a house robot combination (but I like it when both house bots are alongside Matilda in the same game), because it delivered a negative atmosphere. It is to be honest, nonsensical, as I don't decide who are the house bots, but Tornado showed the character capable of winning a tournament against Gravedigger.

  • tornado sux, go Diotoir!

  • whats every one crying about, my dad was a judge on a university version of robot wars here in Australia tell me what the fight is and i'll get him too look at. They used the same rules as in the UK version

  • I'd loved Diotoir for years before I saw this but I remember throwing my hands into the air with joy when it dumped Tornado down the pit. I'm no Tornado-hater but it's just like Jonathon Pearce said:

    "What a win for Diotoir!"

    Comedy routine aside I don't really get why people keep saying losing to Diotoir is so embarrassing. It's a decent machine, durable and powerful as they displayed here. The only problem they have is an underpowered weapon.

  • Would people stop commenting on Tornado's frame and concentrate on the fact they were just beaten by DIOTOIR???

  • @Headbanger142

    I didn't...

    Team Tornado Website on Series 5...

    "We Promise not to mention Diotoir..."

  • Comment removed

  • Can I ask why in every fight which involves Tornado or Razer, there is a flame war on the series 6 final?

  • HA! Love the comment. SO true

  • Exactly. It's pathetic.

  • It is utterly ridiculous. I don't like Tornado, but I appreciate that it is a top class robot and I'm not going to start arguing about its Series 6 title like the others, who think that the judges will read these Youtube comments and suddenly change their minds.

  • It did it's job well. Controverial choice? yes. But they dominated the match and deserved the win.

    It is funny how people keep debating it now. It happened 8 years ago or something; people need to let it go. If you wanna talk about unfair crap, talk about how Storm 2 got fucked over constantly in series 7.

  • Ok, all the Razer fanboys need to stop whining and crying so much about the framework Tornado used to beat them. We all know that Razer would have easily destroyed Tornado if it had gone into the arena without that framework but that wouldn't have made a very good grand final battle would it, Razer just plucking Tornado into the air and throwing it down the pit.

  • ive gotta say if the weight limit was 110kgs then we woundlt be complaining

  • Nice to see Diotoir win, the team's always been a great laugh and their robot is surprisingly powerful (I doubt many robots can push Tornado back head to head like that).

    I have to say though, it really is amusing to watch all the butthurt Razer fanboys crying and screaming about how much they hate the Tornado guys for beating down their favorite. I don't like either robot to fair, Rob Knight and Mortis should have entered this series and made saltshakers out of all of them.

  • I agree on the Razer/Tornado point - yes, Tornado would have gotten massacred without the frame - everyone knew that including the Tornado team. They used the frame knowing this (which was NOT against the rules,) and they still almost lost to Razer, almost going in the pit, winning only by the skin of their teeth via judges decision...and isn't that what the grand final of any series of RW should be? An epic struggle between two robots as opposed to Razer trashing Tornado in 30 seconds?

  • well since Tornado had fought Razor once b4 they found its weakness hahaha but i hate both freakin robots especially razor because both teams think they are so bad ass im glad the little lady bug thing beat tornado and i REALLY wish Razor lost to big brother (my fav) lol

  • Andrew Marchant: "We won the Best Newcomer Award last year - this year we're going all the way."

    Yeah, you are going all the way... ...to the bottom of the pit! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Tornado deserved that and especially for cheating out the championship trophy from razer in series 6.

  • You're right, Ratchet3Mark. I now like watching matches like this one with Tornado losing after they cheated to win Series 6. Oh and by the way, you've probably already seen it but if you haven't, watch the battle between Tornado and Storm 2 in the Series 7 Grand Final Eliminators. It was fucking amazing the way Storm 2 smashed Tornado all over the place.

  • Yeah i saw it on tv when it came out a few years ago Tornado deserved to get smashed all over the arena and there robot is shit all it is a box on wheels that pushes robots around into the pit and stuff. It was ok when it had the cutting disc on but still i never liked Tornado they deserved a good smashing by Storm 2 and at least Storm 2 had a lifter on it.

  • Seriously, fuck you Tornado hating Razerfag

  • I can hate whoever the fuck I want! Razer's won more trophies than any robot in history - that's why I like 'em. If you can't agree with me, then by all means don't agree with me - I couldn't care less. BUT FUCK OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE!

  • I like Razer but Tornado was not cheating in that battle!

  • Officially, no they didn't. But that makes the judges as bad as Tornado. The judges should've made the size limit smaller than it already was. It was completely unfair that Tornado's frame stopped it from fitting in the pit. It was also unfair that Razer couldn't even cause any damage when Tornado's spinner could. What the fuck was Razer supposed to do? Stroke it to death?!

  • Yes but in Dome clearly shows that it is too big to fit in the pit aswell as Tornado.

  • Eh?

  • Sorry, badly worded, the robot Dome shoes that it is too big for the pit aswell, and that's without adding to the framework.

  • I've never heard of any robot called Dome. But if they were too big to fit in the pit, then that would've been stupid of them as well.

  • It fought Diotior in this heat, search for it.

  • I've just seen that battle and Dome was NOT too big to fit in there. Why? Because it did go in there!

  • @ryhorn100

    And yet, Razer DID do some damage to Tornado.

    Razer even managed to pick Tornado up.

    Look, the fact of the matter is that the framework was allowed.

    Perhaps they simply did not take into consideration the size of the pit which would mean that any robot could be modded to not fit.

  • Modifying a robot to not fit in the pit is deliberately preventing defeat. It was fucking stupid of the judges to make a size limitation that was bigger than the pit. If it was up to me, Tornado would've been disqualified for not being able to fit in there. An anti-pit device is the most unfair, cowardly, pathetic and unprofessional piece of pig crap ever invented for Robot Wars, and that's why no one else used one.

  • very true plus its over the weight limit wiv it on

  • Hey, you might be right. Tornado already weighed around 100kg so a frame like that must weigh a few extra kilos. And the weight limit from Series 6 onwards was 100kg. It must've pushed Tornado over the weight limit.

  • You realize Razer modified their robot for the fight as well. They put an extension on their claw which probably pushed them over the weight limit too.

    An anti-pit-device is totally fair. The pit isn't the only way to defeat an opponent you know, you wouldn't be complaining if Tornado has fitted some magic spring device to get it back into the arena when Chaos 2 threw it out. It's just strategically eliminating a way you could lose and no rules were broken in doing so.

  • Firstly, Razer's extra spike didn't push it over the weight limit; it weighed 96kg (even with the claw).

    Secondly, just because the judges allowed that cage it doesn't make it fair.

    And thirdly, why are you STILL coming at me with disagreements? I thought I told you ages ago: NO ONE IS CONVINCING ME THAT WHAT TORNADO DID WAS SMART.

  • I typed in capital letters because I don't think you understood me. You're arguing with me because you want me to believe that Tornado wasn't cheating. Give it up. They DID cheat. Not officially, but logically. You're wasting time just as KillDozer was when he came at me like this.

  • and tornado was actualey imoble on the pit so techencaley tornado was in the pit

  • I know. But it didn't count. And why? Because Razer couldn't let go of the frame. Fucking bullshit. Tornado was immobilised right there. It just shows that the judges were as bad as Tornado.

  • It's pretty funny how I find you in the comments section of every video Tornado appears in complaining about that frame. It must really be bothering you.

  • What bothers me, Fireworkatheart, is people trying to change my mind about it. All I'm doing is responding to people who agree with me. Did you forget again about that long conversation we had back in June? On the video of Tornado vs Storm 2?

  • That's fair. Just so you know I'm not actually trying to change your mind when I argue with you, I just like to argue for fun sometimes. Sorry if I went and offended you there.

  • That's okay. At least you weren't as bad as KillDozer123.

  • If you couldn't care less why are you yelling like a drama-queen?

  • Because I just wanted him to stop coming at me by saying Tornado didn't cheat (when it did). I've had enough of that. I've had it from him, KillDozer and you.

  • Yeah except Tornado didn't cheat. Using the framework wasn't against the rules. Interchangeable weapons are fair-play in Robot Wars, they used the one they thought would work against Razer and it did. Exploiting your opponents weakness is just good strategy.

  • Yeah tornado didnt cheat but i feel that frame was too big for that fight. It should have been against some rule. It would have been fair if either the pit was bigger or the frame was smaller and IMO is very unfair. Some people agree with me others dont but its very unsporting way to win, and what makes you think that im crying over razers loss? as you can see tornado lost here in this vid and this isnt that fight. If you want to gloat about it do it somewhere else.

  • @Ratchet3Mark this battle was in series 5 though...

  • I remember watching this battle on TV. I laughed myself shitless when Tornado got shoved down the pit. I wanted Tornado to lose after they beat Gravedigger in Round 1, but I never thought they would be pitted by Diotoir!

  • team tornado were wearing the major tom crowns!

  • Happy St. Patrick's Day Diotoir!

  • I really like both bots and am shocked die-o-waa won!

  • lol what robots wo pussycat? its just ive always seen it win but its been against chaos 2 a few time and lost all times, i think its lost to dio-waa in the old wars but im not sure

  • lol put diotoir in audio preview and it says 'dio-waa' lol, good match!

  • I think Tornado lost because before series 6+7, Tornado couldnt push very well. It was when robots were alowed the extra weight (20kg) that Tornado turned into a really good rammer.

  • The weight restriction stayed at 100 kg from Series 4 on.

  • i hate tornado. They're boring to watch. Pussycat too.

  • i think hes a really good robot, and pussycat have only lost to chaos 2

  • not just to chaos 2,a few other bots took out pussycat

  • but tordado won the 6th war.

  • Incredible, Diotoir of all robots succeeded where the likes Firestorm, Hypno Disc, Pussycat, Chaos 2 and even Razer have failed I mean they aren't a bad robot but noone can say they saw that one coming.

  • i think some will agree with me when i say that this was the biggest upset in robot wars history

  • I was more shocked when Bigger Brother defeated Hypno-Disc in the 5th Grand Final.

  • I think both of these can be called huge upsets.

    Maybe Iron Awe beating Bigger Brother in Series 7 too.

  • When I first saw this fight I really didn't see that result coming. But I'm glad Diotior won (Because I wanted Spawn Again to win the heat)

  • I just clicked that half-assed Audio Preview button and typed in Diotoir and it called it "Dy-o-war" o__O

  • me too 0_0

  • Wow, didn't even know Diotior won this battle. 5 Stars.

  • That I did not expect when I first saw this battle-DIOTOIR FTW! ^_^

  • You wouldn't credit it, would you? But from the start, that was really the only way Diotoir could have won- they were smart enough to see it and they drove well enough to earn the victory.

    I think Tornado's batteries were running low actually, which is why Diotoir was able to outpush them.

    Amazingly, this is one battle where Diotoir isn't set on fire, even with Bash after them!

  • they weren't set on fire during thier extreme battle with Wheely big Cheese either!

  • I wonder what robot got the most damage from that disk on tornado?

  • Well then, you've clearly never seen Robot Wars...Diotoir is clearly BOTH.

  • Hey, those robots are in here for ENTERTAINMENT, and don't care whether they win or lose. Some of them are actually good-Diotoir is living (Well, robotic) proof that funny robots can be successful.

    Think about 101 as well. That had a toy bunny on it, but they got to the semi-finals of series 3, and the heat final of series 4!

  • I knew as soon as i saw Tornado reversing and than raming into Diotor that something was wrong. I knew Tornado, and in a real match than tornado would follow through the ram...

  • I remember watching this at my Nan's ages ago. I loved Diotoir back from when it was Nemesis. I remember seeing the line up and my heart sinking, DIOTOIR WAS SCREWED! And as the battle started I thought it was all over as it was getting pused around, bt suddenly, Diotoir held it's ground! And pushed back! I can't tell you how happy I was when Tornado went down ^_^. BestDiotoir moment ever.

  • Not only is this the best Robot Wars match ever, it was on TechTV, the best network ever... *sigh* Why must all the good things die?

  • Yeah, now G4 took it over: A money-hungry company with a bunch of crappy shows. Though I gotta admit Ninja Warrior is pretty good, maybe even better than Takashi's Castle, but that's about it.

  • Go Diotoir!

  • Diotor Vs Srg. Bash... eeww, flamethrower Vs flammable

  • jonathan pearce makes me laugh when he shouts so loudly and fast

  • the only irish robots to compete in robot wars are weldor and diotoir i believe.

  • And Monad/4x4/Top Bot.

  • brilliant design on the irish robot (diotoir) - love it!!!

  • tornado looks far more faster than 10 mph

  • Actually, no it didn't. The fur was an OUTER coating. It had aluminium underneath.

  • A wise move, if you ask me. I think the aluminium protects the electronics from frying when Diotoir's fur is set alight =P

  • They did. Series 6 Semi-Finals. Tornado vs. Hypno-Disc. Hypno-Disc lost and got sent to the loser's melee.

    Watch who you're calling a moron.

  • WOW! I never knew diotoir can push!

  • Tornado is like Smidsy,they both have a disk and wedge.

  • Well well well, Tornado beat ones like chaos 2, Razer, Gemini, Hypno Disc etc but were beaten by a furry mascot.

  • That was unbelievable!

  • tornado foolishly crowned themselves champs and they get beaten by a slow machine.....tsk tsk tsk.........probably one of the most embarrassing moments on RW

  • mortis hypno disk razer are cool

  • Lol. I remember this. Me and my mum were stunned when we saw this happen.

  • diotoir usually sucks buthe is so funny but anyway go diotoir

  • YEAH im soo glad i realy hate tornado but i realy like diotor yay for diotor he took away tornado =)

  • Even though diotoir isnt my fav robot they got rid of my most hated robot saddly it was the only time tornado failed to get to the semis.

  • how, did Tornado become UK champions in series 6 if even diotoir can beat them?

  • First, Diotoir wasn't in Series 6. Second, Diotoir, despite everything that JP says, is a very good robot. You ever heard of the term "Never judge a book by its cover"?

  • If diotoir was more reliable in flipping its results would of been alot better.

  • Yeah. The flipper got them to the World Championship quarter-finals, they flipped Steel Avenger in series 3 to make the heat final, and again flipped Steel Avenger to win the Tag Team Terror. It was also very reliable, and had a lot of pushing power, as seen here. If Robot Wars was still going, we may have seen them in the semis, had they got an efficient srimech - the one thing they lacked.

  • Flipper got to the Semis of the Worlds

  • If Diotoir had had a proper working Srimech, it could have won that heat. It probably wouldn't have gone any further though. Shame they never came back after that (aside from the TTT, where I bet they wished they'd stayed back in Dublin).

  • It dosent get much better!

  • lol! Go Diotoir!

  • Díotóir still has it!

  • Look at the pattern on the battle board! All the robots on the left went through, and in the 2nd round, all the robots on the right!

  • Diotoir forever!

  • I remember watching this, but I remember Tornado breaking down before Diotoir pitted them.

  • as i recall diotoir got tornados wheels off the ground

  • WEEEEE! Go Diotoir!
