Our first fight was against Flip Kid, a flipper bot, though the flipper was non-functioning during the fight. we were struggling with some mobility issues, so we let them come to us. we exchanged a few hits for a while,  and we seemed to be in control of the match, at one point, we were pushed into the center of the box, and something broke on our robot, most likely a chunk of our bar spinner. we were only vibrating slightly, so we continued on with the match, but unfortunately, we were wrong in our assessment, and we were rocked with heavy vibrations a few seconds later. we connect with Flip Kid, and we can see that one-half of our weapon has been sheared off. then came our biggest mistake, we continued to spin our weapon, and the vibrations bounced us on our back, in a position we could not move from and we were counted out, and moved to the loser's bracket.
