Re: Analysts

A team would actually have two types of Human Players available for play: A person that is able to provide tubes to robots via the Feeding Slot or tossed over the wall (the latter being a much practiced specialty); or an Analyst that can provide strategy (again, a practiced specialty). This may be the same person, but not necessarily.

The Analyst is the only person on the Alliance whose only job is to watch the whole field and jump from driver to driver, and coordinate between them. What usually ends up is three teams doing their own thing.

Yet, when you think of it, the four Human Players are in total control of the field. If they all keep supplying Triangles (for example, because they were on the top of the pile), not much high scoring can be done. They are also the best ones to see what needs to be fed.
