Re: Things to do with a dead Stronghold robot

You hit the head right on the nail for dead robots. Other than sticking them on the batter I would think that blocking the secret passage would be great, especially if it means that the opposing team can't grab from the secret passage.

Now, let's talk about heavily damaged robots. In our first regional, our alliance captain team 5417 had dead belts and could't drive over to defend. So what could a heavily damaged bot do?

Well If they are great at collecting balls, I would put them at the low bar and just move balls from our secret passage to the opponent's courtyard. That paired with a powerful shooter could mean more high goals. Just a thought.
