烈焰双星 (Lièyàn shuāngxīng, directly translating to Flaming Twins or Flame Double Star, also referred to as Burning Twin Star, Flaming Double Star or Flame Twin Stars (Mech+)) was a multibot from Urumqi, Xinjiang, China, which competed in the inaugural season of King of Bots. Its only appearance saw it eliminated in the first round on a Judges' decision, against Thunderstorm.

Burning Twin Star was captained by two Chinese students from western Universites, one from the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, and one from the New Hampshire University in New Hampshire, USA.

Design[]

Burning Twin Star was a two-part multibot. Each segment was an invertible, six-sided box-shaped robot driven by three omniwheels mounted in a triangular layout, both featuring distinctive front end designs and weaponry.

The black and red segment was a simple rammer with a pointed front wedge shape. Concealed within the wedge was a small flamethrower, used to cause heat and fire damage to opponents. The white, gold and blue segment, assigned to be the 'highly offensive' half, was armed with a vertical drum spinner.

Thunderstorm attacks the remaining part of Burning Twin Star as time runs out

Prior to the battle, Thunderstorm’s team captain failed to check the robot’s bar spinner before entering the arena - as a result, Thunderstorm fought with its weapon disabled. The weaponless Thunderstorm approached and bumped into the black part of Burning Twin Star, before pushing the white part into one of the grinders. The black part of Burning Twin Star attempted to attack Thunderstorm, only for Thunderstorm to get underneath, turn and ram it into the grinder mount. The impact immobilised the black part of Burning Twin Star, which Thunderstorm pushed into the grinder before it and the white part rammed each other. Sparks flew from the white part’s drum, but Thunderstorm kept pushing it into the spikes, grinders and circular saws until time ran out – the white part of Burning Twin Star had also been flipped over prior to Thunderstorm’s final attack. The battle went to a Judges’ decision, which ruled against Burning Twin Star.
