That was battle damage though, ram a piece of metal through a lipo pack and that will happen :p
But if you think of the number of robots running lipos now (across all weight classes), we've never had a fire just from misuse. A few folk have had packs/cells that have swollen up, but no fires that I can think of, contrary to the belief when everyone started using them that we would all be treated to regular pyrotechnics masterclasses.

Doesn't count. No base to hold the battery in at the time.

I believe the battery was held in, it was one of the front prongs being slammed into it by a hit from 720's drum that pierced the pack.
