Trivia: Red Tide VI had the only Hypno Teeth in BBEANS 4.

Red Tide VI was a Middleweight drum bot built by Firebeetle for BBEANS 4. It was Firebeetle's fourth try at BBEANS, and had an okay showing with Red Tide VI, the sixth in the series of Red Tides. Red Tide VI's design was to trap a bot in the front on the wedges and taz wedge, and grind them until a KO. The fight against Interventionism 2.0 was one of the most boring fights EVER. The bots were locked in a stalemate for most of all 3 matches, except for a late, last minute KO for Red Tide. After being KOed 3 times by HazCon and knocked out of the Winner's Bracket, Red Tide VI made a run in the Loser's Bracket, first taking down ByeyE with a KO in three straight matches, and after that taking 2 of 3 from Slasher, by sneaking around its side twice and KOing it. Red Tide VI was finally knocked out of the tournament after being punted around for nearly a whole match by Smitemare 8. Firebeetle competed in BBEANS 1 with Sadrabbit, BBEANS 2 with Blue Moon, BBEANS 3 with Pillar of Fire, won BBEANS 5 with Seism 13, and BBEANS 6 with New Ruin. Firebeetle and is ranked 10th in BBEANS standings.
