破疯, translated as Whirlwind Cloud Breaker , Winds Break Clouds, or Residual Wind, is a heavyweight bar-spinner robot from Fujian, entered into Season 1 by Team Crazy Crazy. Their robot was able to defeat Sea Wolf in the first round.
Design
Whirlwind Cloud Breaker was a black and brown colored machine, equipped with a horizontal bar spinner. Its blue tires were exposed at the top of the machine, and it also featured a defensive block to protect its weapon system. Seemingly taking inspiration from popular robots armed with bar spinners such as the American Tombstone and the British Carbide, the robot was effective, and caused great damage to its opponents.
Whirlwind Cloud Breaker was partnered in the arena with a drone which sported a flamethrower. In terms of structure, the drone was held together in a red, barrel-shaped frame.
Robot History
Season 1
In the first round, Whirlwind Cloud Breaker faced off against mecanum-wheeled Sea Wolf.
The opening seconds of the battle saw Whirlwind Cloud Breaker spinning its bar up to speed, while Sea Wolf aimlessly spun around next to its starting square. Whirlwind Cloud Breaker's first contact did little to trouble Sea Wolf, barely scratching its lifting arm. However, Whirlwind Cloud Breaker slashed into Sea Wolf shortly after, when the hard-to-control style of Sea Wolf saw it expose itself.
Whirlwind Cloud Breaker's drone then got involved with a use of its flamethrower. Whirlwind Cloud Breaker itself then came in, and once again ripped into Sea Wolf's armour. After a minor attack to the side of Sea Wolf, Whirlwind Cloud Breaker came in with a big hit that shattered the back-left corner of Sea Wolf. This attack left Sea Wolf struggling for movement, which allowed Whirlwind Cloud Breaker to close in with another attack, and one which left Sea Wolf immobilised. Sea Wolf was counted out, and Whirlwind Cloud Breaker progressed to the next round, despite an emotional close to the battle for both teams.
