Re: Winning Alliance Makeup

During our beginning of season strategy discussions, we tried to figure out how high different alliance makeups would score. What we predicted to be the best was two high shooting robots who can also cross some defenses, and one robot specializing in breaching. Two robots would quickly breach at the beginning of the match, while the other would shoot. After that, the shooters would be fed balls by the breacher and they would shoot.

This being said, at our districts, it seems pretty unlikely that many alliances will end up with two good shooters. I'll be curious to see how alliance utilize the later pick, less capable robots.
