I agree of most of what has been said in this thread. I think MSC will be about diversification and adaptation. The more you can do and are willing to adapt to the better off you will be. I feel good about our mix of "talents" but there are a number of things you can not predict but can only react to. The depth of talented teams and robots in this competition is something you don't see at the district level and stategy has to evolve to suit that reality. By rough count we have played with and competed against roughly 1/3 of the teams at MSC leaving 2/3 that we have little or no direct experience with this season. Then factor in if you were at a first district event with a team, they have probably improved significantly. I know it will be a great event.

To our friends from the east side, don't under estimate the west side teams that make it here. I have seen most of them first hand and the ones that make it have earned it and might just suprise you.
