2468 has a very reliable full-court shooter...in fact, they were the only full-court shooter at Alamo. We knew that if we (a small defensive robot with a good drivetrain) went into elims with them and a small & quick pyramid shooter (our good friends at 4063), we had a good chance at winning...and it was exactly through the strategy mentioned above (and a few others) that we were able win.

It was this same combo with 118 and 148 that won at Lone Star this year.
