Re: What Will be Your Robot's Primary Focus?

I cannot answer this question, as a possible strategy of ours is a hybrid.

We had a similar strategy in Breakaway where we picked up stray balls and kick them onto our side of the field. A more general approach of this would be to prevent the other team from using balls. This of course will be more complex to handle, but not too separate from other games.

We played out the game in our gym, and I was scoring points from balls that we're right around my area. Based off of personal experience, gathering surrounding balls on the opponents zone seems to be successful.
