Re: Predictions for Championship

Good alliances will need 1 (one) dedicated small ball robot and one that can cap extremely reliably and/or hang really well. The third one could be...an all around bot?



You do not need a good ball robot to win. If you have two strong robot that one stops the ball robot and two stop the other robot from hanging.


To delay a ball robot can win the match becuase the last 20 seconds of a match is not enough time to score more than a 100 points but is enough time to get any good hanger to hang.


I have seen a good strong robot win over a good ball and a good hanging robot. look at team 386 they will stop you in your tracks. if you can't do what you want to do becuase you are fighting a robot then you will have to depend on your partner to win.. I like those odds. one on one.
