FanArt: Vlad the ImpalerThe toughest battlebot in the heavyweight division. Many has faced him and yet to live to tell about it. Tazbot, Punjar, Voltarc/Voltronic, Mjollnir, and many more fell victim to this bot and its builder, Gage Couchais. | |
 |  |  | | | Date | Name | Comment | | | 27 Aug 2001 |  Quinton J. Alexander | Vlad the greatest battlebot of all time!! Him and Overkill are my favorites. Nice
-[Andy's Reply]- Thanks. Yeah! Gage built one mean assed bot, shame he was beaten by Mechavore (a rookie) in the third season. But it was a heck of a fight. My faves are Toro, Ziggo, and Backlash. | |
| 23 Nov 2001 |  Patrick Small | In my opinion, Vlad sucks. Yet, it is still a good representation of him. Now his big brother Vladiator, he is cool. And he is not the strongest. Mechavore wooped him in Season 3, which allowed SoW to take the nut. The only thing that sucks is that BattleBots made some new rules which made Son of Whyachi ahve to be a SHW and Whyachi had to be retired.   Andy 'Mainiax' Yuan [Fanq] replies: "
Yeah, Vladiator is better, I like the design better than Vlad. Though I think Vladiator has a traction problem, he still put on a good show, especially the fight with Minion in the Super heavyweights final.
And I doubt Vlad the Impaler would've survived a match with Son of Whyachi, those spinning hammers can really pack a punch. But I'd love to see that,
Vlad the Impaler vs. Son of Whyachi. " | |
| 13 Mar 2002 | Naoko | WAYHEY!!!!! Vlad is one of my altime fave battlebots. My other faves are nightmare, Mauler, Razor (some of these bots are from robotwars uk) Gemini backlash and deadblow. Vlad is EXTREMLY cool but Vladiator. (Buddylee don't Play In the Street is a wussbot) I'd love to build a battlebot someday. It would either be a wedge or a spinbot since they are the strongest types (exept clampbots but they are just deformed looking. Clusterbots like Gemini are really cool also)  Andy 'Mainiax' Yuan [Fanq] replies: "
I have a bot in planning right now, it's a clamp, wedge, lifter, and thwack bot in one. Once I learn everything and get the materials, it'll be ready.
You know. Christian Carlberg (builder of Minion, Overkill, and Toe Crusher), has a page that teaches bot building @ his website.

| 31 Mar 2002 | Vlad dracula V | You have loss your disency for history, honnor, torture, and 15th century warlords. You should be dragged into an alley and shot!  Andy 'Mainiax' Yuan [Fanq] replies: "
What? Slamming robots into the spike strips isn't violent enough? *takes the controller from Gage* Take this! *drives Vlad into Vlad Dracula and into the killsaws*" | |

Battlebots will rule all! | |
| 25 Oct 2002 | Vlad111 | I love Vlad the Impaler, even though he has retired, he remains my top favorite. This is a cool drawing of him you made! It was nice to see Vlad the Impaler II this season. There was only one episode shown on TV, but he was extremely exciting to watch in person in his prelim matches. Gage is an awesome builder and his driving style rocks. There's never a dull match when his bots are in the box. I have faith that some day, like every good vampire, Vlad will return from the dead and take his revenge on Mechavore. Go Gage Go!  Andy 'Mainiax' Yuan [Fanq] replies: "
Shame that Vlad 2 didn't get so far this season. But Gage knows how to entertain, can't wait till the next season. " | |
| 12 May 2008 |  L. Mitchell | Sharper lines and shading would improve this. Nice job, though. | |
