Re: most feared thing

The thing i fear the most is a GOOD ball collecting mechanism comibed with a good human player(cough cough..Team 33-who won VCU). They collected as many as a dozen balls at a time a dropped them off to a human player who seemingly never missed. Our HP didnt miss a shot in 4 matches int he middle of the competition, but theirs was unbeleivable. not to mention they had goal hooks to move mobile away from blocking the ball deposits. They were slowed down when an oppenent basically devoted its enite match to stopping them in the finals, but they broke away from them soon enough to have hteir human player score another 20 points. They truly exemplify the phrase, you cant stop them, you can only hope to contain them. The bar blocking robot is not very possible. Many teams used "grappling hooks" or tethers to reach the bar fromt he ground or simply had long enough arms, so even if you swing or can stop off the top platform, they can still reach around and get on. Plus with teams like 33, they can counteract the bar with a full stationary goal. Not to mention when 388 capped it for them...
