Edit: I just rewatched the matches and they were shooting fine in the 1st finals match. They must have gotten damaged from the impacts by defenders in that match...but then they score a buzzer beater into the 3 point goal. So I'm still lost on what happened. In match 2, their autonomous fails to launch discs, and you can hear it clicking.
It happened somewhere where the robot just didn't respond to the field i believe. I don't know the specifics, but whatever happened there almost changed things. Didn't they start looking for a replacement?
