An efficient pit that keeps the mechanical/electrical/power requirements for a robot fulfilled is vital this year because the robots are going to take a good deal of contact both from other robots and the defenses.

A good strategy for the alliance, developed before you get to the field and supplemented by scouting knowledge of both the opposing alliance and your partners.

Practice with the robot, keeping in mind the contingencies that might be faced on the field. Planning for different strategies.

A team has to know its limitations and make a plan to optimize what it can do for an alliance.


This is what separates good from great.... IMO
