Disappointing Game

If you'd played that match in elims at Central Illinois the score would have been very different. 1772 would have been being pounded by at least one, if not two, of the red robots & probably wouldn't have been staying in place to be able to catch. The inbounding wouldn't have been as smooth either. And I didn't see anyone slamming into the shooting robot.

By the third match of the finals at CIR we were the only bot that was shooting, but we certainly weren't playing 1 on 3. Without 525's assists & ability to provide picks to strip off defenders (ditto 4296 until it got tipped over) the outcome would have been very different.

I'm not saying the blue alliance didn't have good robots or a good strategy; 1772's catching looked sweet and 3284 looked really solid. But the red alliance played very ineffective defense, and that contributed to the score. Your strategy is important, but so is the other alliance's.
