Re: Amazing robot plays

Some of my team's favorite plays from Buckeye Regional:

Team 135 had a a fearfully accurate shooter. Once they were in position, they could unload all the ball's that they had collected in a very short time period. In the Quarter Finals, We effectively shut them down, shadowing them and making sure they couldn't get into position. It was quite a sight to see our Ice Cube ramming 135's massive machine.

Team 703 had a fearful autonomous mode. They would go on the ramp and unload all ten balls into the center goal. It was quite a sight. After we lost the first match in the semi-finals, our programmer quickly changed our autonomous to run an intercept course. It was successful and we ran a collision course right into 703, winning autonomous. The yells from our alliance and our programmer were enourmous.

Team 141 sat on the ramp, blocking 703 from getting into position. Towards the end, 1018 pushed the struggling and massive 461 up onto the ramp and still had time to get back on the floor and move up onto the remaining slot on the ramp, winning the match for us.
