[FIM] Escanaba District Event 2014

[Dragonking]

Since there are only 4 teams that have played an event I figured we should give some advice as to what strategies work and which ones don't from week 1 and 2. Hopefully this will make the event even more competitive.

1. If you can't score in autonomous or can't score over 80% then don't put a ball on the field
2. If the ball is by the low goal and you can easily just push it in, don't waste time picking it up, lining up and trying a high goal. It is much more important to either get out of auto immediately or to start a new cycle. The only exception is if there are no additional points attached to the ball (no assists yet)
3. Truss catches are usually a waste of time. It takes too much extra time to line up and even more time if you don't get the catch (especially with defense). Team 33, which won southfield, has one of the best catchers I've seen so far and they stopped using it during eliminations.
4. Instead of truss catches, hit a truss shot to the human player, get the quick 10 points and don't loose possession of the ball.
