c) their ramp- week 1 also taught us that most robots can't climb other ramps, and I feel this is one place 1114 has something up their sleeves...
d)their strategy- (although don't expect you'll hear too much from them on this one-except the underlying strategy to win graciously)
a) When the upper caliber placer teams enter the game (as 1114 will likely be), the game suddenly changes a whole lot...
b) same as a)
c) really? I didn't watch footage from other regionals, but when robots took about 5-10 seconds to aim and line up, they were typically fine. It was often even faster if the ramps didn't have gaping holes in the middle
d) It's Derek and Karthik...... need we say more?
