Andy- Yes, the TechnoKats are certainly a good pick this year with a great offensive 'Bot, but if anyone should recognize the value of a great defensive bot as an alliance partner, it should certainly be the TechnoKats!! (remember the '99 TechnoBeast?) How fast does your lifting mechanism have to lift if you can't get to the bar? For my money the best alliance play is a marriage of offensive and defensive capabilities- Look to one of the Monkey 'Bots- #25 Bristol, Meyers, Squibb, #69 Gillette, or #184 V-Force to bring defensive balance to your alliance-
And Yes, We have our tweaks ready for the Nationals as well-
