Fear not defensive bots! 1727 Was number 1 seed at DC, and this is how we chose our alliance. We chose no. 2 seed 3123 for their amazing offensive robot. Then when we needed to choose our defensive robot, we completely ignored the rankings and went to our scouting data. The top of our list was 176, because of their 6wd articulated traction wheel chassis. They turned out to be perfect for defending the goals due to their superior pushing power. They hadn't ranked as high due to their defensive playing. This alliance went on to win the eliminations!
