Re: Video: Check out our robot!

This design is just like ours. I wonder if we inspired you any? I'm interested to see how you perform since the outcome should be similar. Either way, great minds think alike!
Since the beginning of the season I thought it would be difficult to score when defended. The only thing thats been scaring me lately is how many great arm bots I've seen. Usually the ratio of good to bad is fairly equal. But I'm seeing 80% good so far. Therefore I'm thinking defense is getting harder and harder to pull off. We've found with our design that we will likely be capped out in the first minute or less of every single match, therfore we will be playing defense every single match. I assume you're in the same boat since after the bottom row is filled you've got nothing else to do. I like how that works out, but only if we can be succesfull at shutting multiple teams down.
