They made it to Finals at Peachtree, but their alliance lost. They put up some really good fights, but in each match of the finals the opposing alliance always had a bot playing specifically against 1648's robot.
that is true... team 1648 was a favorite of mine. especially when capping three (always a crowd favorite too). and once again, i have to give props to felix, the programmer from 1648 that helped us out. i also noticed the defensive strategies. our team actually played the same strategy against them. we saw one team pull all three tetras off of them at once. we actually got our teammate to do the same thing in our match.
