Story Time !
Stories from the Workshop
These aren't just stories about bots — they're stories about us.
Of teamwork that clicked, mistakes we grew from, and pressure that revealed our potential.
Tap a story to read how every build shaped who we are today
"🚫 No Backup. No Victory"
"In the quiet before the storm, we didn't see the breaking point coming . . ."
"⚙️ From Chaos to Combat"
"The bots weren't ready — but we were and that made all the difference at Quark 2025. . ."
⚙️ Every Battle Leaves an Upgrade
Two victories. One bot destroyed in flames. A semi-final run cut short by time. The battle upgraded more than our machine...
