| Trivia: | Ripterra was one of the first two bots to use treads in BBEANS History (the other was T I T A N). |
Ripterra was a Middleweight HS built by Somebody for BBEANS 4, and it was Somebody's first BBEANS. Somebody also competed in BBEANS 5 with Chernobyl and BBEANS 6 with Stanley 2.
Ripterra gave Jules's bot, Diarrhea of a Madman, a good scare in the first round, when in the first match, it got around DOAM's wedges and KOed it. After this quick KO, it was punted OOTA by DOAM's powerful weapon in the next two rounds and lost. It was very close in the third round though to getting to the soft underbelly once again though. Against Rage III, Ripterra was hit so hard in the first two matches that it went OOTA, but Rage III went OOTA itself in the third round.
It then was knocked OOTA twice by Rage III, the fastest bot of all the tournament. As a result, Ripterra was one of a few bots who did not win a fight in BBEANS 4.
Ripterra's main downfalls were very weak weaponry and lack of wedges along with empty space.
Ripterra, along with T I T A N, were the first two bots with treads in BBEANS history. They also formed the Tank Tread Brothers, the first secret bot alliance ever.
Somebody is ranked 53rd in BBEANS standings.
