Re: How Hard is FIRST Stronghold?

This game is basically 2010+2012.

In 2010, not many robots climbed consistently.
In 2010, not many robots could move between zones quickly.
In 2012, not many robots could move across center field quickly.
In 2012, not many robots could quickly intake a ball.
In 2012, not many robots had a shooting accuracy of greater than 50%, and that was with the opportunity for improvement on 2nd/3rd shots.

I predict that, in 2016:
Not many robots will scale consistently.
Not many robots will cross defenses quickly.
Not many robots will quickly intake boulders.
Not many robots will have a shooting accuracy of greater than 50%.

Doing everything at the highest level will be extremely difficult this year, probably not as difficult as 2013 (where no team did everything effectively), but certainly more difficult than 2014 or 2015.
