Stogi, Philly is one of those Regionals that has always had quite a few High Caliber teams year after year. It's just it never really got noticed by a lot of people as one of the "Stacked" regionals like Midwest. Regardless, I haven't even looked at the team list yet. I've decided that the only thing that determines how well a team will do is performance, not lineage or hype. If you want to Debate that, remember 2 out of 3 World Champions were eliminated in their First Regional. That being said, I heard some Rumors of a "MORT Anomaly".....  |
I counted 15 big names and good robots based on this year's performance alone. I don't look at team history when walking into late week regionals. Only week 1 regionals.
