Since you can't articulate it during a match, be sure to stay in your auto zone! :yikes:

I would imagine if they were infront of the shooter; while they would take a meeting; they should be able to absorb a lot of the inertia from the disc; significantly lowering the velocity of the disc. This would be especially useful if blocking a full-field shooter as even a small change in the discs flight path would cause it to miss the high goal, and potentially even the middle goals.

I would like to invite everyone curious about blocking shots from a variety of offensive robots to tune into the Alamo regional this weekend... 2789 has been cooking up something that we hope will inspire other defensive teams out there to iterate blocking mechanisms and take defense to a new level in this game!
