Re: Climbing and dumping not winning?

In Los Angeles, 3309 parlayed climbing into being picked first. When they broke out their climb-and-dump for the first time (all 50 points of it!) in the late QFs or their first SF match, they put a HUGE target on their backs. Regional finalist 981 proceeded to play very aggressive defense during the next semi, stopping them cold (981's alliance won the match, despite racking up 3 Technical Fouls from that defense). Apparently, something went wrong with 3309's climber during the third match--despite a lack of defense (though the threat was there), they didn't climb.

4210, the other triple-bot (though no dump) at the event, was knocked out by a barrage of shots from the #6 seed's three shooters into the goals.
