This is why alliance selection in the elimination rounds is so critical.

Amen...

Seriously though fantastic looking bot this year. I especially love the extra wide tuber-scooper.

Is that a Playstation move controller on the back, or a human player signal, or do you just really like cool shiny lights?

Good luck this season, hopefully we'll get to see ya'll in St. Louis

Holy crap, that looks fantastic!

Robot aside, that's a wonderful piece of video... and that it starts with my favorite quote EVER doesn't hurt.

Good luck -- I know you don't need it!

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So we will see you at Alamo and Midwest!

But you made a strategic mistake in releasing the video. This robot is so jaw-dropping, opponent drive teams would have been rendered motionless upon first seeing it.

Awesome Robot! Your whole design is extremely sharp.

How does the arm work? How did you guys build it? This robot is jaw dropping!

After watching a video like this, I wonder how much growth my team needs to get to this level. Wow. Stunning...

So it can be Batman?

In all seriousness, it seems they're there to cradle/center the tube

Looks like the wings are to align the tubes in the lower gripper so the upper one can take it and score.

Another beautiful robot put out by 118!

One thing that intrigues me, the colored status indicator beacon on the side opposite the manipulator, does that automatically light up the color of the tube the robot is possessing for the driver to know?

Erm i dont want to give it away but its for the hp and one more thing, thats all imma gonna say

Your human player's throw seems almost illegal, but I suppose its probably just the angle... I'll have to try that throw...

That robot looks amazing! I hope we get on an alliance with you guys at the Midwest Regional. See you in Chicago!
