Blacksmith

Overview
Blacksmith is a stock Hexbug Blacksmith toy. Blacksmith has done moderately well with placing third in the sportsman tourney and being selected for BYOB Disc vs the world. Lumakid100 decided to name Blacksmith the Godfather of Hexbug Hell because Blacksmith has been in every competition. It first appeared in Hexbug Hell season 1 where it lost to Bite Force in the opening round, it managed to win a dominant match against the BYOB Silver drum before being thrown out of the arena by Witch Doctor V1. It was then selected for BYOB Disc vs the world where it was thrown out of the arena by the BYOB Disc through some good driving by the BYOB Disc. It then returned for the Hexbug Hell sportsman tourney where it placed 3rd out of 4 robots. It then returned where it had its worst performance yet where it lost all the fights it was selected for. It then returned for the Hexbug Hell Quarantine Annihilator where it had its best performance yet, placing 5th out of a field of 18 robots. Blacksmith then returned for the Hexbug Hell 100 subscribers tournament where it became the champion after defeating Luma's Weed Whacker Hexbug and Standalone in contested matchups.

Fight record

Overall record: 18-7
