That's really a shame. 259 were amazing at the beginning.

259 really should have won...

@SweCats

To be honest while those are stupid mistakes Adam was a skilled and experienced driver.

[Madbutcher305]

@Gavin17259 In addition, considering the massive aggression and the damage against Wild Thing before that point (taking out their weapon) kinda adds to it. However, I still agree that the immobalisation was what meant they lost.

@Gavin17259

Actually, if you observe Wild Thing's weapon had stopped spinning around the same point, so the first point is kinda nulified.

[Gavin17259]

@Rhapsodyas no, wild Thing bashed into 259 and the chain fell off from the impact but whether Wild Thing caused the chain to fall of or not it still counts against 259 as damage. Also, Wild Thing did a lot of pushing after the chain fell off. Besides, 259 being immobolized at the end didnt do it any favours so it was definitely the right decision.

He built the disc, and probably made the rest of the robot as an afterthought.

259, great robot. The kind of weapon you'd want to find in series 6. BUT, entering series 6... with unprotected "chains" for the weapon... and NO SCHRIMECH? Really?

[TheHrb1234]

259 wasnt counted out when the time finished so therefore the immobilization shouldnt have counted in to the decision - 259 were screwed out of a win there.

[bigfootukrap]

It's a shame, 259 has so much potential in my opinion but never really got to show it.

[Rhapsodyas]

@Gavin17259 ehi! wild thing didn't broke anything, the chain went out of 259 by itself in it's last frontal attack on wild thing

[Gavin17259]

@mrfallout261 It was probably edited to save time. If it had been 30seconds then it would have been counted out but instead it went to the judges. I think Wild Thing would have won even if 259 wasn't immobolized at the end because they had broken 259's weapon whereas 259 didn't really do that much to Wild Thing; it was mainly aggression and as we all know, damage counts for more than aggression. The massive combo looked good but was unsuccessful in doing any major damage to Wild Thing. Shame...
