My opinion of this game is that it will be won by teams scoring in the center goal. Scoring in the center goal will rely on the ability of the robot to detect the lighted target above the goal and aim the ball shooting mechanism accordingly. I don't think this is a game where a good driver can simply aim at the goal and score (without wasting many balls). This year the robot will rely on its control system to aim the ball shooting mechanism during any offensive play. Basically, if a robot can not score on the center goal during autonomous it's more likely that the robot can not score in the center goal during the rest of a match.
