Is This Not A Viable Strategy?
Background: Our robot lacks any ball manipulators. We had to take it off because I said it was stupid, we were overweight and it was never tested. It was a kicker, it would have been a terrible feeder either way. So, all we can do is lower the bridge, go over bumps and balance.
Autonomous:
Tip middle bridge then tip our bridge.
Drive up the bridge to balance. (The balance is just an extra touch, just a show of dominance)
Teleop:
Make our way to the opponent side and attempt to push the shooters with targeting systems into corners.
Herd balls using our "plow".
Disrupt play.
For the first 2-4 matches (before lunch), do solo balance (4-8 seconds max) to rack up points while we have a chance. Chances are, the teams will have terrible shooters and balancing, so while others will have trouble, we just outright win matches with the 10 points + what ever our alliance makes.
The rest of the matches, we would do coopertition. We practice coopertition throughout the lunch. That is solid 1 to 1.5 hours of practice.
This is pretty much playing the ranking system. However, my mentor feels that we should always go for coopertition. I do not think that is wise, especially without having the solid practice time during lunch.
