Double teaming, side shooting, pick setting, all of them seemed even easier that we thought they'd be to counter.

Are there any videos of 1592? I'm curious how they managed to dodge the defense. I saw a few fenderbots at Chestnut Hill get through, but mostly from uncoordinated defending.

Even short-range shooters can be shut down well. The main scorer against us in the semis (a short-ranger) put up 9 teleop points the first round. We upped our game a little more, and the only got 2 the second round.

Key defense is much harder. You need a strong drivetrain, skilled driver, smart coach and a little luck, but it still doesn't work as well.
We are working on getting most of the video we have out there.
