Re: [FRCTop25.com] Week 1 Preview Show!

2 topics to discuss:

1.) autonomous blockers - a number of teams have shown they have a 2 (or more) ball autonomous, meaning not all 3 robots need to be in the white zone for all 3 balls to be scored in auto. Will blockers become an important strategy for auto?

2.) optimal cycle - alliances have a number of different ways to complete a cycle, each worth a different amount of points and taking a different amount of time. is there some sort of optimal cycle? one that gives the most amount of points for the shortest amount of time, maximizing a typical alliance's scoring potential? truss shot, 2 assists, high goal. 3 assists, no truss shot, high goal. 1 assist, truss shot, high goal... etc.
