Overview
The BYOB Axe is a stock Hexbug BYOB axe attachment. It did poorly in season 1 going 0-2, but then rebounded in the sportsman tourney with a new look and near sweep, claiming 1st place.

BYOB Axe vs BYOB Disc
The match started with the disc spinning up and both bots dancing around each other before the disc started to rain the pain, quickly taking off the axe's armor panels. The fight continued with the disc wailing on the axe. Eventually the disc (thanks to the extra weight) managed to rip off the axe's leading wedge. The fight went the full 3 minutes and went to a judges decision where the disc won a unanimous decision.

BYOB Axe vs Beta
The fight started with the axe firing away The entire fight was both robots hitting each other and the axe pushing Beta into the walls. 3 minutes passed and Beta won the judges decision because damage is weighted and Beta took off the axe's panels. The axe was now eliminated.

BYOB Axe vs Beta
The fight started with both robots charging at each other and the axe wailing on Beta. While the axe was wailing on Beta, Beta was more tactical, not firing the hammer until it was certain that it would hit a panel. This kept going for the entire match which went to a judges decision where the Axe won. Because this tourney is a round robin, no one was UFE.

BYOB Axe vs BYOB Flipper (1)
The fight started with the flipper getting in a flip attempt but it didn't succeed because the axe had it's anti flip panels on at the time. However, the axe landing caused the panel of the side the flipper was targeting to fall off. The flipper then got in another flip attempt, but barely missed. The axe and the flipper then got stuck together after the third flip attempt. After the unstick, the flipper flipped the axe which then self righted which was something it's season 1 version could not do. The axe then lost its other panel, but it didn't matter because the flipper had already lost both of theirs. The rest of the fight was the flipper trying to flip the axe out of the arena and the axe self righting. The fight went to a judges decision where the axe won due to damage and aggression.

BYOB Axe vs Blacksmith
The fight started with both bots charging at each other and hammering away. On Blacksmith's second swing, both hammers hooked together for a second before Blacksmith retracted its hammer which caused the axe to lose a panel. Blacksmith then hooked the axe again, almost flipping it, which caused the axe to lose its other panel. The rest of the fight was both robots hammering each other. The fight went to a judges decision where Blacksmith won due to damage since aggression and control were both split.

BYOB Axe vs BYOB Flipper (2)
(A/N: Looking back I realize that Blacksmith should've been in this fight because he was also at 2-1 with the flipper and axe. I am very stupid.)

This fight happened because the flipper and axe were tied for wins at 2-1 each. The fight started with the flipper charging at the axe and pinning it to a wall. It almost did the same trick it did with Beta, but the axe escaped. Twice. The flipper lost both its panels before the axe did. The rest of the fight was the flipper flipping the axe and the axe hammering down on the flipper. The fight went to a judges decision where the axe won on damage since aggresion was split, control went to the flipper, and damage is weighted, making the BYOB Axe the champion of the Hexbug Hell sportsman tourney.

Rumble 4
The fight started with everyone priming their weapons. Mr. Shellshock made the mistake of trying to rush Bronco head on and was flipped in its debeut fight. The BYOB Axe went after Blacksmith while Bronco tried to flip SOKhaos. Bronco then flipped the BYOB Flipper which then self righted. Both the BYOB Axe and Bronco went after SOKhaos which was flipped, but able to drive inverted. Blacksmith then got under Bronco, but didn't fire the hammer. Bronco then got in position to throw Mr. Shellshock out. Mr. Shellshock was then thrown out of the arena in its debeut fight. Bronco then tried to flip the BYOB Flipper again, but missed and changed its target to SOKhaos and tried to throw it out but failed due to mistiming the flip. While this was happening, Blacksmith was lifted by the BYOB Flipper and reversed into Mr. Shellshock's corpse. Blacksmith hooked its hammer into Mr. Shellshock's cup which detached it from the chassis while simultaneously getting stuck on the wall of the arena. Bronco then went after the BYOB Axe, but failed to flip it and went after the BYOB Axe instead. Bronco almost managed to flip the Golden Nut holder out of the arena, getting it stuck on top of the wall, but it managed to escape due to the axe swinging. Bronco then flipped Blacksmith who instantly self righted and continued fighting. It was the final 10 seconds and everyone got desperate. Bronco decided to pull a double and flip SOKhaos out of the arena in its debeut fight. The fight went to a judges decision where Bronco won due to the amount of KOs it got during the fight.

Rumble 6

A fairly large group continued to harass Bronco for some time. Bronco then escaped and flipped the BYOB FBS. After that Bronco went after the BYOB Disc who wasn't keen on letting history repeat itself. Bite Force then redirected Bronco into the wall while it was having small drive problems.

The BYOB Axe was flipped, had trouble self righting, and Bronco threw it out of the arena. Bronco went after Lumaside next and quickly dispatched it by throwing it out of the arena. Bronco then tried to throw Supernova out of the arena, but Minotaur drove under it as it was being flipped. Bronco then flipped Minotaur and that managed to get Supernova off of it and out of the arena. Bronco then went after the BYOB FBS which was long gone at this point and was pushed over to Bronco's wall. Bronco quickly threw out the BYOB FBS, then flipped Tombstone. Bronco then went after Bite Force who was boxed in, and threw it out too. The fight went to a judges decision where Bronco won due to having the highest KO count.
