Defensive/dumper hall of fame
 
This is for those of us who strive for excellence in dumping and defense, and don't shoot. Post anyone who you think deserves in...

The first teams to be inducted are:

291 for their consistant and reliable ball dumping

84 for their amazing ball dumbing and wonderful drive train

Without a doubt team 322 deserves to be mentioned. Team FIRE was the number one seed at the West Michigan Regional this weekend and they were terrifying. They zoomed around the field and would just inhale balls like they weren't even there. They're the fastest bot I've seen so far this year.

I havent seen very many myself, but one of my favourite defensive/dumping robots would have to be 1305. They are definatley one of the best defence robots out there, and are not terrible at dumping balls.

I nominate team 1902 the Exploding Bacon. I saw them in action at the Florida Regional and they are the perfect of example of "simple and effective." And I see that they were the first ranked team at the Lone Star Regional.

Agreed. To talk about dumpers this year without mentioning 1902 is like talking about Dave Lavery without mentioning Hawaiian shirts.

That said, 1251 was no slouch as a dumper at Palmetto.

395 is unstoppable. Also, 955 was a very impressive dumper. Both teams were very effective in autonomous, and then would load up and hammer you again.

My favorites are 1006 and 1138

Yup, I agree. I just saw them at Lone Star Regionals. They had a great dumper and a great drive train. So they could actually defend themselves. They were seeded first place. Also, our alliance partner for the finals, 1421. They had a beautiful autonomous mode. They rolled their collection rollers backwards and shot the balls to the corner goal from their starting position. They could also go up the ramp easily, they were short so they were stable (they never theatened to fall down at all). And also people forgot that they were on the field because they were small. So while other defensive bots would harass our other alliance partner, 231, who was our shooter, 1421 would just zip around and score a gillion.

815 played some great defense at GLR and 67 was fairly good at it there too.

306 definately goes here; you guys definately impressed us at Pittsburgh, Cody.

I'd also have to add 393; their drive train was scary huge, and they could push like mad.

1305. You will only have seen them if you saw the Waterloo Regional or GTR, but they were arguably the best defensive bot at either regional and they could probably hold all of the balls on the field if they wanted to.

I don't want to toot my own horn or anything, but I think 1255 could have made it into the "Defensive hall of fame" had we not been plagued with chain tension troubles. The times that all our chains stayed on, and everything worked, we played defense like nobody's business. That, combined with almost automatic ramp points, helped us a bunch. However, we had a bunch of problems with our chains, and then faulty code in the elimination rounds that didn't allow operator control. We shot accross the field in autonomous mode, but then couldn't move for all of the operator time. By the time we got it fixed (After quarter finals), 1902 decided to use their replacement robot for us. No hard feelings though, we still had a great time. I just wish we had the chance to show our stuff...

213 in boston was probably the best dumper i saw, in BAE even though 213 was there as well it appeared that 97 was better.
so: 97 and 213
