Re: What is the best strategy

At the Lone Star Regionals we (418 LASA) were allied with 231 (High Voltage) and 1421 (Chaos). 231 had an awesome shooter and could pick up balls off the ground. 1421 was effective at defending, a very good dumper and always got 10 balls in the lower goal in autonomous. 418 was okay at dumping but found that we were best defending. We also had an autonomous that stopped the other allience from scoring. We won autonomous all but two games, and those two team 118 scored either 9 or 10 in the upper goal, but one of those games we came back and won.

So, a solid shooter, a reliable dumper, a good defender, consistent autonomous and a defensive autonomous is what won the Lone Star Regionals for us.
