Re: This year's "game" is a job, not a game

KoKo Ed said it the best.

On Thursdays, its ZZZZ.
On Fridays, there are too many matches that are ZZZZ.
But on Saturdays during eliminations, there are as good as any previous season, especially if you are still playing come the finals. Is it really any different than previous years?

The game is definitely different compared to the last several years, but the excitement as a whole hasnt changed.

With Championships much bigger starting this year, I see it as gettting to a whole new level with the 8 divisions.
Matches are more fun and exciting when both alliances on the field are more evenly matched, where the better strategy wins matches. We should see a whole lot more given that elite teams will have a tough time getting 3 elite robots on the same alliance due the increase of divisions and teams.
