Instead, an "enforcer" could be used to protect the FCS from any blockers. After all, the maximum height of a FCS will always be shorter than the maximum height of a defender. Once the FCS has don't its job, the defender has the time to do its climb, preferably a climb-and-dump or just a 30.
Therefore, an alliance that could easily make Einstein is:
1. A tall full-court shooter that is relatively accurate.
2. A floor pick-up robot that can clean up any misses and shoot 7 discs in autonomous.
3. A quick climber with a drivetrain strong enough to hold up against robots trying to go through it. Preferably with dumping capabilities. |
I concur that these are the types of alliances that will show up out of half of the divisions.
It may come down to a bad cRio, a disconnected battery, or (hopefully not) the FMS.
