Re: most feared thing

The one problem with "one-trick pony" robots is teams will figure them out and stop them from doing that one trick anymore. Got a ball collector? Block their goal with the movable goal or with your robot. A really good hanger? Get in their way on the ramp. A topper? Slap the double away or block their way to the goal.
As the season moves on you'll see more diversified robots moving to the forefront as teams figure out how to play the game more and learn to use more flexible strageies. As good as this weekend was it'll get even better.
