Go to Post Our rookie drivers generally get their first "real match" experience at the Florida Regional which is usually a week 2 or week 3 event. That is a much easier "practice event" than IRI. - Kit Gerhart [more]

Human players

Are most human players practicing at the 2 and 3 point goals? or going for the shorter pyramid goal?

Re: Human players

I would never trust my human players with the colored disks if a robot on our alliance had a shot at scoring them. The middle goals would probably give the highest return on investment. Just get someone started on practicing their hammers.

Re: Human players

as far as i know you can only throw the colored discs into the pyramid goals, so that would be only a few discs, it would be best to practice both about equally, because the pyramid frsibees are worth more, but are possibly easier, but the far goals are the ones you'll have the most shots on.
So, I am trying to split my practicing somewhat equally, to ensure max points.
summary: practice both. especially if a robot cannot make the pyramid shots.
