Re: Sacrificing a State Championship for the Cause???

At the Mich state competition, there are so many good teams that the second ranked will still be very good and possibly take down a 469 alliance. The 4/5 winner will probably give them a good run for the money and maybe even win. The top seed will pick 469, but the second alliance will be 67/33/1918. A combination of 2 of those, especially 67 and 33 will be a good tag team to go after 469. The only reason I say 33 and 67 is because they can both get the last second hang in for 4 points, and that could be the deciding factor. A 469 and 1918 alliance with another good bot just to push balls in will be hard to stop.

I would not say 469 is the ultimate bot yet, I think someone else has a chance to win at the state competition, but it will be an epic finals!
