It does not matter how long it took them to get were they are. they were a great pick by 469, and they have a great bot.

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

If self-promotion is allowed, then I would put 1111 (Powerhawks) on that list (though you won't see us at Nationals this year because of money problems.) (We won, even with alliance partners that we helped get their robot up.)

Of the regionals that I've seen (Chesapeake included):

56 (Robbe Xtreme) (no questions asked, just a flat-out amazing dumper)
103 (Cybersonics)(we had the luxury of playing with them twice)
175 (Buzz)
181 (Birds of Prey) (don't know if they will go to Nationals)
190
254 (Cheesy Poofs, no questions asked! Aweseome shooter, did not flip.) (You guys better come to Chesapeakes some time soon.)
293 (Spike, some interesting autonomous modes)
888 (Roboiators)
1184 (Wow! That bot was an incredible defender.)
1629 (Garrett Coalition)
1934 (good dumping capabilities, we hope to see some more from this team soon)

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

888 Robotiators by the way. Thank you for allowing us in this group!

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

What about good defensive bots? A good defense beats a good offense! The Robocats have been to two regionals (Buckeye,Detroit) ... DEFENSE IS HUGE. So from what everyone saw, who are the top 10 defensive bots?

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

Often times the best defensive bots are very good offensive bots as well. Ask anybody who attended Trenton or Annapolis.

And the UTC regional

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

DID FLIP!!!! lol. ahaha. but not as much as other did, but it did flip.
But a good pick overall, and a good shooter, i just dont like how it has to go up the ramp backwards and then turn around.

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

We have to go up the ramp backwards? That's news to me... *shifty eyes*

Yes, our robot has been on its side for part of 3 or so matches this season due to various circumstances. When we were tipped in match #2 of the SVR Quarters the crowd sounded like it was a match on Einstein.

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

I've only been to one regional so far but one robot that sticks out in my mind is 296. They had a very good autonomous and scored balls quickly. They'll be at GTR so keep your eyes out for them!!

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?
 

There are a ton of reasons why we pick who we pick. The biggest is can we work with that team. If we could hand pick any teams we wanted our team could easily say we only want shooters but that is not how the game works and our team will pick the best robots we can work with and hope that it is a winning allince. I feel that drive trains being equal a robot that shoots 7 of 10 is much better then a robots dumping 18.
