Re: Lessons learned for Week 2 Regionals?

Minibot is big, but you don't have to deploy 2 minibot. If 1 minibot is faster than the others, you have to deploy the fastest minibot and the other robots should go defending.

Autonomous is not that big but you should get points, it doesn't matter if the ubertube is in the lowest low, you can still get points.

These two things seem to make or break a winning alliance. Doing both reliably seems to be the winning formula. Yes this may seem obvious playing the game is the secret to playing the game but in past games end game and autonomous sometimes seem to be very undervalued (in my own opinion). And now they seem more important then ever.
