Re: Week 2: Any new lessons learned?
I visited NYC and watched the webcast of the finals today and have to agree with Ian and Nuttyman, you need to effectively master both parts of the game if you wish to make it to the end of the elimination matches. Minibots are truely paramount and merely having one doesn't mean much.
Teams need to be able to deploy quickly and consistently to be effective. They may get selected or be selecting with just a minibot, but in the elimination matches you'll need to be able to place tubes also.
I can't imagine, well yes I can, what it is going to be like at St. Louis in the finals on Einstein.
BTW NYC had excellent coverage of the competition. Cameras switched to coincide with the announcer's commentary.
