Minibot Strategy & Etiquette

[ToddF]

All three robots go for the towers. At least one will get slowed down by a defender. The first two robots to the towers have priority. One of the towers will have a primary and a backup minibot. The primary bot launches their minibot and gets out of the way. If there is a problem with deployment, or if the tower doesn't trigger, the backup robot launches their minibot.

Though I expect the robots at the finals to be a class above those at the regionals, I'll bet there will still be plenty of deployment problems and non-triggering towers.

Hopefully, the backup robot doesn't damage the primary robot's minibot. But, hey, that's why we all have spare minibots, right? I'd say winning the match is worth damaging a minibot. And if your minibot works properly, it won't be at risk.
