Number 1 - Bite Force



Bite Force is the dominant competitive fighting robot of all time. Its lifetime record of 26-1 (.963) in Battlebots, and its many top 50 victims (including Tombstone twice) are a testament to its dominance. In season 1, Bite Force sported clamping jaws, and it used them to go 5-0 and win the Giant Nut. It debuted in the next season with a vertical spinner, but lost in the third round to an ax swinging robot called Chomp. It won the consolation rumble at the end of the tournament, however, and was a favorite coming into season 3, when it started a streak of 16 straight tournament wins, capturing two more Giant Nuts in the process. It also went 2-0 in an exhibition tournament in Las Vegas. To the surprise of many, Bite Force did not return to defend its title in season 5, and another vertical spinner, End Game (which Bite Force knocked out in season 3), took the crown. Bite Force hopes to return next season and defend its reputation as the greatest combat robot of all time.
