Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
Ok everyone...who in your opinion was the best hard working consistent cycler for 2013, not full court shooter, not 30 point climber, not 30 point hang-4 disk dump, not floor pick up , just your basic work-horse, most consistent, 4-disk shooting cycler for Ultimate Ascent? :cool:

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
701 was a great cycler in my opinion (Though I may be a tad biased). They were very consistent at Sacramento and Colorado and were a top scorer.
973 was also a very good, quick cycler. They did have a floor pickup, but didn't use it much. They were amazingly consistent and quick at the Central Valley Regional. I didn't see them at LA but they were still very fast and very accurate at Silicon Valley and on Archimedes. 1662, (again a little biased) was AMAZINGLY quick and accurate and hands-down the best cycler at Sacramento. It's a shame they didn't make it to Championships, I really think they deserved it. An 80-pound bot that was "zippy" as Michael described it. |
Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
I think 868 would be the most solid contender for that title
I'd also toss in 11 into that hat, but that's a bit biased :rolleyes: |
Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
There are many many good cyclers, but the two that stand out to me are 610 and 973.
610 had a FCS, and a floor pickup at Waterloo, but very rarely did they use either of them. 973 also has a floor pickup that they rarely used. The fact that they were so tall didn't hold them back. |
Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
Without a doubt it's 610. They were basically immune to defense, loaded quickly, scored quickly, and drove well. A lot of great cyclers this year, but 610 was the best.

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
Well ill just throw a couple teams out there I think could qualify. First off there is 862 Lightning Robotics, then my own team (1718) I say this because of our accuracy and how our driver made it through the heavy defense we received, there is 68 Truck town thunder, also I am unsure if 1114 would count since they could climb for 30 also, but ill mention them as well. Some of these are a little biased since Im from Michigan

In my opinion I would say 228 was the best cycler that I saw in person. They where very fast and agile making defense not really an issue. One time I saw then get 6.5 loads back and forth only missing two frisbee the entire time

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
Guys wait until we get to IRI 868 is a force their speed is just unreal

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
I'd say that the best cycler this season was 245. See for yourselves http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yurCUSSoyNQ

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
Lots of great cyclers, but a few that stood out to me were 245, 868 and 610.

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
868 and 245 were fantastic cyclers. However, if you disregard 1114's 30/50 point climb, they were also just as good at cycling.

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
1114 at GTRE (before there 30 point was ready) was beating out other robots in pure speed which was cool to watch. There feeder was also really fast.

Re: Who was the top "Cycler" for 2013
At the MN State Championship, 2052 was one of the best cyclers I've seen during the season.
