Team Ignition (Previously Team Rhino and Reptilian Robotics) is a fantasy robotics team headed by Dylan McCarthy, screen name Badnik96. The team's original name was based on one of his favorite fantasy designs back when BattleBots aired, named Rhino. This was changed to Reptilian Robotics following ARC Armageddon, and eventually to Team Ignition after Ruination: The Beginning. Team Ignition is Dylan's real-life robotics team, and he currently owns an antweight, two beetleweights and a mantisweight robot.
Team Ignition finally won its first championship in 2015, winning the Robot Bastards lightweight class with Redline. Its second championship came in 2017, when The Debilitator won the lightweight championship in the Cherry Bomb Classic. Its third came soon after when Pyrite won the lightweight class of FRR Backlash.
