I haven't figured it out completely, but i know it has 10 victors, a suction cup, an extending crane tower, an up down cable, and a confusing drive base. A significant amount of it is not done, and so it doesn't really work. They are currently ranked 44 out of 48 I think. So, bottom line: In a few weeks of time they could be so good that they might win every match. Until then, their not much of a threat.

Thanks! Definitely sounds interesting... I am especially curious how they deal with having the ball touch the ground or another robot before they touch it again... Hopefully they will have it working by SVR (their second regional).
