There aren't many right moments when robots are shooting from the outerworks!

2771 did not shoot from the outer works, they shot from about one robot length off the batter. However, not many defenders made them miss. Defense is not something to delegate to your alliance's weakest driver -- it takes skill, and that requires practice.

Sure they didn't!

Maybe you saw them shoot up close when no one was playing defense on them, but under defense they seem quite capable of backing up into the protection of the outerworks and taking a high goal shot.

I don't like to talk about that....

In contrast, look at their score during quarters, where no defense was played. They had much higher scores with no foul points to boost them. It was still effective, just not clean, which cost us a finals run.

I was there and saw all their matches. The outer works shot was a rarity for them, but you are right, they can hit it when needed. 4819's defense is not a good example, because all five fouls they picked up were useless and avoidable -- only one was committed while 2771 was lining up to shoot, and that shot was good anyway.
