When I first got to the Sac regional and saw the bins fall at the start, I quickly came to the conclusion that whichever way the boxes fell, so too fell the match. Our robot was able to play effective defense by shoving boxes out the back or sides of an opponents zone, sometimes affecting the outcome in our favor. Don't be fooled by your first impression, these bins can be easily moved out of the scoring zone without picking them up. This seemed to be a very effective way of lowering your opponents score to the point where either you won, or you brought your average opponent score down and raised your rank.
