Re: The Highest Levels of Play

In 2013 I was determined that full court shooters were the end all be all, and while teams like 148, 67, 303, and 469 were amazing bots, the championship was won by lightning quick cycle bots and amazing defense.

In 2014 I laughed off blocker poles(and this was pretty much spot on until Einstein)

And in 2015 I expected to see WAY, WAY more can specialists at regional events, not only because that function only required one mechanism but they were in seriously high demand among the lower seeded alliances at both Chesapeake and Virginia.
The only really top notch ones I saw at our two regional events were 540, 2537, and 2377.
