I like predicting crazy upsets that are going to be totally wrong.
Plus I personally just want to see a few of these teams go to Einstein. Maybe if I just will it hard enough... :P

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

Agreed. I think tether bots actually are a negative in that respect as they cannot run can burglars and so instead must be able to do a 3 tote auto and ideally have extra weight to tether a partner's ramp.

WOW!! No 118-1678 combo from newton?

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

And if you're playing with a team like the poofs who put up hella stacks, the 3 tote auto isn't nearly as good as the bonus from cans

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

I like upsets.

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

I think the 20 pt autons are going to play a factor in elms.

Don't for get about the 3rd and 4th robot. There will be cheesecake all over the championship.

I could see top tier teams bringing a spare set of <.25 second whips that easily bolt on a kitbot, and those alliances intentionally picking 3rd rounders with almost no functionality just to modify. They don't even need to play in most matches, just the ones where all 4 cans are contested. If an alliance can consistently make 5 - 6 stacks with cans + noodles they make it to Einstein.

Winning the big show it will be more important to get the center cans, just to deprive the other alliance of scoring potential, but you won't need all the cans advance.

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

nah... have you seen 4488? them and 254 would be nigh unstoppable together

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

Looking through so far, I think you're right. it might end up being us as that 3rd pick, actually...

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

Ugh, we have to loose to 254 in the finals again? :rolleyes:

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

We'd be happy to help you change that. :)

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

What I would give to have that honor...

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

Totally honored that you think we are good enough as a 4th pick. We shall just have to see. In the meantime, here's our new autonomous: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqHk50xX1_A

Re: 2015 Champs Predictions
 

It still seems like 254's best option is to pick another fast can grabber. There is the possibility of 3 tote autos being left later in the draft and they always have the option to cheesecake with their already fast can grabber.

I like the way you think!
