Favorite Robots at the Championship

I thought I should make a thread for people to express how much they loved certain robots they encountered at the Championship and why.Since 987 was on Archimedes, my opinion is biased.

My favorite robot at the Championship was 27. They pick up the ball elegantly and are just really fun to watch. They could score quickly and effectively. Their robot was just really cool....

I loved 71's hybrid mode because they could change lanes at any time using the IR signal, and they did so smoothly because of their maneuverable drive system.

MOE's robot was also impressive. I like how they could exclusively get the second ball in hybrid, which to me is a great strategy. Also, they were amazing to have as alliance partners.

Team 842 played very potent defense, which is why 987 chose them to be on our alliance.

These are just a few robot that stand out in my mind right now. There were so many awesome robots on Archimedes and other divisions. What robots did you guys love?

Edit: I forgot to mention 1771. They really impressed me by making their idea work soooo well. They won the creativity award for a reason.
