Week 1 Analysis

[indubitably]

I personally think this game will evolve well in the coming weeks. It is frustrating when there are issues early on that seem obvious to predict but they will most likely correct it enough to make it competitive in the coming weeks.

Unlike most people apparently, I have seen a decent amount of close games and they get very intense. Yes, endgames have some inherent excitement, but seeing frantic strategies develop to score quick points is something that seemed rare in close games in the past.

There was a pretty crazy ending at Central Illinois where the match was tied and both alliances inbounded their balls around the 7 sec mark. Red launched the truss shot first, got the 10 pts, and then the red ball collided with the blue ball on the other side of the truss, preventing blue from tying it up again.
