Nah, just a not-so-great teaser.

There was a thread a few years ago about the difference between a good teaser and a bad one. Good: reveals some things, but not everything. Bad: Pile of kit parts that isn't assembled. There is in fact a good teaser out right now from another team. I could tell one thing about their robot--but what on earth was the rest of that stuff in that picture?

(P.S. I thought the same thing as Colin. If the teaser is such that you can guess it within about 5 seconds, it might not be a good one.)

Yup, but that's not the whole thing of course

I fail to see how this is a teaser. You are showing that you will be using a battery, which every team will be using, and 4 cims, which most team will be using. What is so "teasing" about that?

I'm guessing the tease is why the CIMS are pointed away from the battery in a cross. (Holonomic drive)

At least it's not, like, just a picture of a Toughbox or something.

This is not a teaser. Please go read the thread on Teasers from last (or before last) season.

I don't understand how this is any less of a teaser than the usual 1114 teaser with incomprehensible gestures, but whatever.

From my understanding, I'm getting maneuverability and speed out of the teaser. Maybe a holonomic wheel layout?
