Not to be confused with the heavyweight Proving Ground design, Killdozer.
The KillDozer was a superheavyweight robot built by Team Killdozer which competed in three seasons of Comedy Central BattleBots.
It was a six-wheeled robot which was originally armed with a ramming spike plow. It later replaced the plow with a ramming wedge with sloped sides. It did not perform well in competition, winning only one match across the three seasons it fought in.
Outside BattleBots[]
The robot fought again at RoboGames 2005. It was destroyed in its first match by Tombstone after having its shell ripped off the chassis.[1] It was then defeated for a second time in the loser's bracket by Ziggy.
Robot History[]
Season 3.0[] |
|---|
The KillDozer vs. Jaws of Death The KillDozer pushing Jaws of Death. |
Season 4.0[] |
The KillDozer vs. Timber Wolf The KillDozer first fight was against Timber Wolf. The KillDozer tried to push its rear spike into Timber Wolf, but it was too high up. Timberwolf got around to dThe Killdozer's side for one good hit, but then suddenly stopped moving and was rammed by The KillDozer. As a result, The KillDozer won by knockout and moved on. |
The KillDozer vs. Dreadnought The KillDozer then went up against Dreadnought. Dreadnought's double-disk vertical spinner put a lot of dents into The KillDozer, mostly on the plow blade, but Dreadnought kept having to retreat to spin up. The Killdozer looked to be on the offensive, despite the damage. However, the big steel plow blade eventually gave way to the repeated hits and was torn apart and thrown into the air, piece by piece. The KillDozer managed to get one good hit, and Dreadnought's weapon was releasing some smoke. It had a backup weapon, and as the match ended Dreadnought slipped its rear wedge under the battered The Killdozer for a push, cementing a 31-14 decision and its exit from the tournament. |
Season 5.0[] |
The KillDozer vs. Pro-AM The KillDozer's only battle in Season 5.0 saw it face Team Robot Dojo and their machine, Pro-AM. Very limited information is available on this fight, but The KillDozer ultimately lost via knock-out and was eliminated from the superheavyweight division again. |
