Re: Team 675 Kicker

Looks effective, but I think kick mechanisms on the wide side have a big advantage over narrow side kickers. Wide side kick robots can block a goal effectively and still kick the ball(s) away from the goal. With a narrow side kicker, you can either go wide side to the goal to play best defense, then not be able to kick balls away as the come in to you, or play narrow side to the goal and leave more of the goal exposed. Of course, our team has built a narrow side kicker so take that for what it's worth. Sometimes you do the best with what you have, and enjoy the experience.
