2 more weeks people.. 2 more weeks!

254, 968 and 753 are all in the same division. There's one finals alliance.

Not to mention 25, 66, 71, 111, 176, 229, 1503, and others...

woo thanks

So what division does everything is the strongest now that they have been released.

I'm leaning toward Newton, but just take a look at the others.

1. Newton (OMG!)
2. Galileo (494+[1625/1126])
3. Curie (1114+469!!?!?)
4. Archimedes (217+233)

108 is in Curie again.... hrm.... anyways--

To add to Archimedes-179, 1279, and 1595
To add to Curie-22, 710, and 180
To add to Galileo-1, 190, 1700, and 399.
And Newton-900


At least, this in my opinion, to which teams are the greater ones that I know about.
This year is gonig to be insane! Anyone concur?

Yea, there are alot of good teams in these divisions. Those alliances are just my own personal picks as the most dangerous. Like, I'm still thinking about the 1114+469 doomsday.. I mean, that alliance has national champion written all over it.

I'm a little more scared of the 25 + (111,254,968,1503) doomsday.

yea, they'll be there too.

Galileo vs. Newton in the finals. IMO.

add 987 to that list- proven power

[Cody Carey]

We are in the same division as our alliance partners in philly... that is very

unlikely.

I noticed that too. Galileo is like Philly MkII. I'm going to miss some, but there's at least: 306, 291, 177, 365, 173, 1719, 716. That's a lot of teams it seems to me.

[David55]

WOW

I can't believe we are going to play with and against teams like 25, 111 and 254.
Another good robot to add to the Newton list is 1657. They won the Israeli regional with 16 straight wins and no loses. They can score up to 7-8 balls in autonomous, and they are very good.

Oh...and this is my 100th post.

[J Flex 188]

469 1114. That alliance scares me beyond belief and it could quite easily happen with that kind of depth. 610 and 772 are also thrown in there.

The fields look a bit more balanced compared to what I remember from Archi in '04 but theres a lot of chance for Newton to take it. Someone has to pick between Beatty and Stang after all. Watch for 1006 doing well there as well.

With that being said, the more I look at Curie, the more I like it as a division, of course owing to the fact that I've seen robots there, but that there are a healthy mix of teams that have stepped their game in this season and in recent events. 1511, 1680

296 and 1241 will both be doing well in their divisions. To those who haven't seen 296 yet, they have their best robot by far in and they will be a good fit as a dependable turreting shooter. 1241 does everything quite well once again.

Ooh, also edit. Hyper 69 going to Nationals again!

Just a bunch of random thoughts cobbled to get here, but this is going to be one heck of a Championship. Curie vs. Newton finals?
