Two key examples. In the MSC finals, 217 played defense while 67 and the 3rd bot (sorry I can't remember their team number) played offense (to some degree). In Palmetto finals, we choose team 1398 to primarily aid in defense and home zone clean up. Both robots had VERY strong drive trains and BOTH robots played exceptional matches.
Wait? There was another robot besides Hot and the Chickens?
