Goalies in Action

[rcmolloy]

It's pretty evident that you should stick to playing heavy defense instead of being a goalie during teleop. If you have the time and capability to switch roles very quick then I could see it being advantageous. However, I do believe that heavy defense will be a much better strategy then just sitting in front of the goal.

Here is a match of our goalie bot doing well, one of our one point blockers window moters was stripped that match but we still accomplised our main goal.

Here's a video of our alliance getting shut down by team 973's epic goalie pole in Galileo Q58. There's a reason they were a first round pick by 67.

Thanks for the shout out! We were super worried for that match, you guys were potent.

Note, after this match we started blocking w/ the shooter unloaded so we can't catch a ball!

Yeah, this match alone was reason enough to explain why we were so thrilled to be playing with you guys in elims as opposed to against you. That was dominant D from auton to buzzer. Great working with you guys, and we loved doing our part to help lockdown the opposition!

Here is the video of 469 blocking 2 shots in autonomous. I believe this was the first time they used the blocker all season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuZL0SvPGpo

Great double block by 4048 at New England Championship. I think this was the first time it worked based on the drive team's reaction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUDUTQLZ5QE
