Re: Low vs. High robot poll
Now, what would be interesting is to have a poll asking what teams are sacrificing in exchange for low bar capabilities.

The low bar is definitely a great strategy, and with a good enough drivetrain, you can get over all of the drivetrain-centric defenses (categories B and D).

My prediction is that a lot of low bar robots will be the 3rd pick at many regionals, and if these bots are able to run boulders to a courtyard shooter bot, then you have a solid team right there.

Can't wait till LA to see what the rookies and the veterans do.
