The tenth episode of King of Bots II aired on September 15th 2019. It was the first episode to completely eliminate a celebrity team from the competition, with both Tao Shen and Tu Ziya being knocked out as a result of the episode's battles.
The end of the episode also featured Robo Genius, an educational segment exploring different aspects of robot building and combat.
Competing robots
NOTE: Doraemon and Iron Scrap were also eliminated in this episode without fighting a battle.
Setup
This episode continued the team battles started in Episode 9's Elimination Round. The first half of the episode saw Ye Hong Li's team face off with Tao Shen's three remaining robots, with Tao Shen's loss leading to his elimination from the competition, along with his three robots.
With only five managers left, the celebrities would start to fight each other in rotations, across individual head-to-heads. Each fight would lead to one robot being cut from the competition. This also led to Tu Ziya's entire team being eliminated at the end of the episode, with two of her robots not even fighting, due to a loss from Yesaji.
Ye Hong Li vs Tao Shen
NOTE: Robots on the left represent Yi Hong Le. Robots on the right represent Tao Shen.
Cat King vs Earth Shovel
Winner: Cat King
Warrior vs Dragon King
Winner: Dragon King
Spectre vs Po Feng
Winner: Spectre
Result
With Tao Shen losing the series of battles to Yi Hong Le two-to-one, he and his entire team - Earth Shovel, Dragon King and Po Feng - were all eliminated from the competition, as no manager could continue with less than three robots. Tao Shen and his roboteers bid farewell, and left the competition.
Eliminated: Earth Shovel, Dragon King and Po Feng
Rotations
Black Rabbit (Zhu Zheng Ting) vs Yesaji (Tu Ziya)
Winner: Black Rabbit
Result
After only one fight during the five-way rotations, Tu Ziya and her three robots were eliminated from the competition, again because she was not allowed to continue with only two robots. This led to Doraemon and Iron Scrap both being knocked out without even taking part in a battle, alongside Yesaji's elimination.
Eliminated: Doraemon, Iron Scrap, Yesaji
Snake (Zhu Zheng Ting) vs Megabyte (Ye Hong Li)
Winner: Megabyte
Result
Forced to eliminate another robot only two fights after he cut Tánshè from his team, Zhu Zheng Ting was once again inclined to eliminate Switch, despite the British machine still being undefeated after its only two fights of the competition. Ellis Ware of The Hounds intercepted and defended Kevin Cleasby, with even the Greedy Snake team being shocked that Zhu Zheng Ting still wanted to cut Switch. It was Ellis Ware's belief that the defeated Snake should be the one to leave the competition. Zhu Zheng Ting's final decision was not announced during the episode.
Eliminated: Snake or Switch (unknown)
