Re: Team 1717: Uncut & Highlight Video

Their strategy mentor and a few teammates approached us before we left the pits the day before our match. We sat down in an empty area of the pit and just talked about the match and how we should handle it for probably about an hour and a half. After developing the strategy we went back to the hotel, and the next day we met with them immediately on the practice field where they practiced 2 matches with us, and personally showed me how to feed into their robot. They let me try it a couple times, and even though I ended up not having to ever feed into them for our match I still really appreciated that they thought to teach me that.

I'm sure they don't do all of that for /every/ match because of time constraints, and it was only probably because it was a very vital match for them, but it still shows that they exercise professionalism in strategy.
