Re: What did we learn from week 2 of the 2013 season?

That a 118/148, 987/254, 610/1986 and 2056/1114 Eisenstein field would be epic.

I also saw alliance strategy play huge in the elimination rounds. The pick play that 233 did for 4451 was something that teams should look at going forward. Technical Fouls were not called as much as week 1 I believe. Alliance selection is very important this year as many lower seeds can pick their way into a championship unlike years previous. A 4 top goal run and 30 point climb can be accomplished in under 30 seconds(1114 ). Floor pickup in auton. is better than having a semi-reliable full court shooter in most matches. Being able to go under the opponents pyramid in teleop is a key advantage at being able to outmaneuver great defensive play. A middle goal auton can be used very effectively. If your team doesn't scout this year then you will more than likely lose, even if you have the best robot at the regional(not that that's anything new but this year it is even more important).
