Re: Your Team's Dream Alliance

As a team with a deflector/looper bot and suspension bot, I'd really like some hangers and scorers, somewhat obviously. And since we're in Michigan, that opens us up to a bunch of realistic dream alliances. But this is what I'd like to do:

Near bot: 910, The Foley Freeze. They're a great scorer - genius scorer, actually - and they're always great fun and great friends! They're an easy pick.
Middle bot: 2337, us/EngiNERDs. We can deflect, suspend, and move balls pretty well - good enough to feed 910.

That leaves a last, far feeder/maybe defender bot, someone who can clear a bunch of balls to us and 910, and then finish them off. Ideally, we'd have a hanger who could suspend off of us here... but none spring to mind. So:

Far bot: 1114, Simbotics. They've always been a team we've admired, and they can move, score, and hang (but not with us).

The three matches we've had with these two teams have been Kettering qualification match #38 w/910, MSC qualification match #88 w/910, and Curie qualification match #84 w/1114. Scores: 12-2, 19-5, 10-1. Bring on the competition!
