I personally think we have good enough robots to easily beat a hypothetical 1114/217 alliance if we develop and follow a good strategy that employs a lot of defense and we hurdle like mad. I watched one of the thunderchickens matches where they had defense played on them and they did not score many hurdles at all. They are without a doubt beatable. 1114 is the same way. If you keep the balls away from them obviously they can't score that many points.

I definitely feel that Archimedes can take the championship and I really hope 1771 can be a part of bringing home the world championship. We have made the necessary improvements to our robot to make it easily competitive with the best in the world.
I know 2 offensive robots and a defensive robot is the perfect alliance. But how that alliance is made up is nomans knowledge, but I can tell you that's the einstien winner's alliance makeup.
