Ungracious professionalism at internationals?

However, they had used it at all of their previous events, including as a key component of their winning strategy at Michigan State Championship (where they essentially played the same role they were playing for the #1 alliance on Newton). I assume their internal assessment was that they could score more points as a cycling robot than as a full court shooter, and opted to pursue that strategy during the qualification on Newton.

They cycled in the match with us and they did it pretty well. I thought their full court shooting worked in 1538's favor since they eat up everything on the floor so basically 217 was a long distance feeder for them.
