I was really excited to see 5254 get into elims. They're a really strong team, especially considering how new they are.

I'm pretty sure 107 did that wheelie accidentally... I saw their driver taking a picture of it. I had a feeling 2122 would fall to the back of the draft, but we definitely got really lucky. As soon as my lead scout and I saw 2122 feeding the yellow totes we both yelled "THEY'RE OUT OF TOTES!" It was really exciting. From the beginning we knew we wanted to have a pair of strong feeder bots, but I didn't expect to get three strong feeder bots and 234's god of a human player. Our first semifinal match is going to haunt me, though...

So much awesome stuff happened at IRI. Thanks to 1023 for scouting with us- we couldn't have assembled the Blue It Tatorboticsward alliance without that data. It was really exciting to see 1657, they definitely lived up to all of the pre-season hype. 179 got really, really good at landfill. They were one of the first teams to wipe out the landfill at IRI, and there's something to be said for that. And, even though we got knocked out, our friends at 1023 and 2826 advanced and we saw some amazing finals matches.

Oh, 1756: I would have said yes... too bad I had an alliance to manage
