What did we learn from week 2 of the 2013 season?

[Wayne TenBrink]

Didn't learn much that I didn't already see in Week 1. In no particular order:

Climbing for 30 is not a ticket to victory.

Full court shooting is like fender shooting in 2012 - its great until a defender comes along. To be effective, you need to set up quick, be accurate, and be prepared to leave and shoot from the pyramid when needed.

Variable elevation shooters are the biggest cause of missed shots/reduced cycles for so many teams. First, because teams just miss. Second, because it slows the whole cycle down (position robot, adjust shooter, shoot, adjust, shoot, adjust, shoot, shoot).

Time at the feeder station is just as import as time spent anywhere else. Practice lining up, practice feeding discs. Practice, practice, practice.

Floor pickup is a good thing, even if you don't use it all the time. Every alliance should have one.

Reduce cycle time.

Autonomous.
