Our strategy was a simple, robust robot optimized for passively getting over defenses and a very simple intake/shooter for low goal shots. No high goal, no scaling, no extraneous mechanisms. We were very pleased to discover that we were one of the few robots that could consistently get over the ramparts, the moat, and the cheval de frise without getting hung up. (As one announcer said "Wow, those wheels are bouncy!")
However, we recognize that our shooting cycle time was not ideal and will be working hard to have that improved for our next regional.
Also, autonomous. There was a clear progression of improvements to team's autonomous modes throughout the weekend. Those are only going to get better.
