Best Overall Bot: 111
We were lucky enough to get picked by these guys (and 1625) at WI and I still can't get over how well 111's turret worked and how quickly it could adjust when getting pushed. They could fire a rapid volley of balls, score 10 in autonomous just about every time, and could also play great defense. Amazing
Most effective design component: 1323's hopper
They were a great ramp shooter, and if they ever missed a shot, or if their teammates ever missed a shot, it just bounced right off of the goal into their hopper, ready to be shot right back.
My favorite design: 233 and 33
233's screw ball collector was amazing. It was really fun to watch them pick up balls and see the balls zoom around the screw. Their turret was great too.
33 had one of the most streamlined designs at the Championship. It was cool how all of their components were integrated. Their hopper rotated to allow balls in to the shooting conveyor, which also served as ball pick-up. They were almost immobile (we couldn't budge them in quarterfinals in Archimedes) and had a great turret, too.
