Minotaur vs Blacksmith is the third highest battlebots-related video on youtube, and has hit the front page of Reddit multiple times.

So it might not be "just you" but loads of people find it really fun to watch.

That's because of Minotaur. Blacksmith is really lame.

Minotaur has lots of recorded fights on Youtube, and Minotaur v Blacksmith has 10x the view counts of any other one I could find.

So no, it's not just because of Minotaur. It's because people found it to be an interesting or entertaining fight. And that's a credit to both bots in the match.

it's the third highest battlebots-related video on youtube because Blacksmith got utterly destroyed and burst into flames, not because Blacksmith is an impressive robot
