Pramheda started the day with a forfeit due to electrical problems, but would go on to meet caulk in the finals and would end up taking home 2nd against Caulk, Pramheda locked in a spot to finals. Unfortunately common electrical problems continued showing up for Pramheda the problems doomed the ability to keep the weapon spinning during most of its fights.
At July 2021 NHRL Pramheda's electical issues showed back up and burnt up two weapon motors. Starting the day with a first round loss to Hot Leaf Juice, Pramheda found itself in Loser's Round 2 for the 2nd tournament in a row. Pramheda would finish the day 4th, after a massive KO hit by Bobby.
September 2021 NHRL started off to a different pace for Pramheda. With three quick victories Pramheda made it back to the Grand Finals against Busy Bee. Pramheda lost its weapon belt during the fight but was able to win a unanimous judges decision for its first NHRL victory. Pramheda's electrical issues didnt stay away the entire day which prompted the V4 design to be debuted at NHRL Finals 2021. Pramheda V4 was the biggest redesign the bot had ever seen, with the upgrade to 4wd, a bigger weapon diameter, and location change for the weapon motor.
Pramheda V1 premiered at Rage in the Cage in the fall of 2017 taking 3rd place due to electrical problems
Pramheda started the 2021 Finals with a first round bye after entering the day as the 2nd ranked robot in the 12lb class. With a quick in over Busy Bee, V4s design seemed to be working out for the best, until in back to back fights it found itself against unconventional robot designs. Bobby and Ugee made quick work of Pramheda using their size as a major advantage. Pramheda would finish the 2021 Finals tied with Drunken Peasant for 5th and end the season as the 3rd ranked robot in the 12lb class.
Pramheda V4 is confirmed to show up on March 26, 2022 to the first NHRL tournament of the 2022 Season.
