Trivia: Haymaker was the only SnS in BBEANS 4.

Haymaker was a Middleweight SnS built by InfiniteInertia for BBEANS 4. Haymaker was one of the most feared bots at the start of the tourney, and received some votes for Most Feared Bot. It was feared because of a picture of it getting 15000+ points in a single hit vs. MOE. Haymaker had many problems with stability, which ultimately led to its demise, along with its weak armor. It match against NOS-BOT lasted over 10 minutes, unsuprisingly because it was a SnS against a slow, armored bot. Haymaker was surprisingly tossed OOTA twice against Smitemare 8 in the second round, before slowly grinding away Undercutter. Another repetitive win against No Leaf Clover and finally Haymaker was beaten by Layziee to be eliminated. Watching Haymaker after the hype it received was slightly anticlimactic because it never really caused that much destruction. Infiniteinertia also finished second in BBEANS 3 with Le\/el and competed in BBEANS 5 with Absolute Chaos, and is ranked 7th in BBEANS Standings.

It can also be noted that despite his relatively old age and relative obsolete-ness compared to modern day bot building, it's basic design can be found on numerous modern day SnS.
