Re: Full court shooting strategy

Our bot wasn't really designed with defensive play in mind, it was mostly just figured to be a selling point, and our tank drive was just us attempting to keep the drive simple compared to the headache inducing swerve we did last year!

However, nets like ours don't necessarily invalidate the full court shooters. If we were on 1706's alliance (like we wanted to be) then we would be the ones pushing away any potential blockers, and you don't really have to push them very far to keep them at bay.
