Re: Troy Athens Regional

I've been busy with at my own regional, so I haven't watched any of this district. However, it's obvious 469 is doing much better in qualifications this time around than they did in their previous district (where they were shut out multiple times and lost four matches).

What's the difference? Are teams buying into the 469 system more now that they've seen what it can do? Are the robots just better at scoring at this event (especially with two more weeks to work on them)? Are fewer teams attempting to defend against 469 and just attempting to maximize their rankings? Some of each? Something else?
