Top 5 robots in each state

[HolyLandBrand]

Since the season is over, what were the top 5 robots in your state during Recycle Rush?

[AlexC]

I live in Ohio and from what I have seen the ranking is:

1. 379
2. 5413
3. 48
4. 120
5. 4269

Fair warning I am associated with 5413 so there may be some bias

Attached is the ranking data for Ohio based on the Michigan District ranking system.

[Trevor1523]

Not sure about northern Florida teams but I can account for those that attended Orlando and South Florida regionals

I'm not sure about the rankings but I'd probably say the top five in no particular order are:

744
1523
2383
179
Probably 1592 or 2556

(Can't account for 233 because I never saw them actually play, but they're usually stellar.)

Oregon is sadly a little light when it comes to strong teams. (most strong pnw teams are from Washington). But here they are:

4488: An incredibly dominant robot that ended up seeding 1st at every pnw event they went to. They played well to their strengths, and really should have gone to Einstein this year.

2550: A breakout year for 2550. They ended the season playing incredibly well at both their district events (1 district win, 1 district finalist), as well as getting to semi's at district champs. Sadly they could not attend worlds this year, hopefully that changes.

2990: Probably the most successful team from the area to build their stacks in separate parts. They came out in the season swinging, being one of the most impressive robots at the Willamette Valley scrimmage during week 0, and continued to play well throughout the season.

1425: 1425 was one of the best cappers in the northwest. That along with their can grabber at district championships made them a hot commodity for eliminations.

2635: a fast hp stacker that did well at their district events, but seemed to fall short on the big stage.

Michigans top 2 are both 1s..

1A- 1023
1B- 548
3- 33
4- 3641
5- Fill in any one of 10 different robots here

[John Retkowski]

For NJ I would say:

2590
303
1403
193
2607

It's definitely a tough list to make, and there are many good teams that I could see on this list.

[mastachyra]

Illinois:

2338 - Gear it Forward - Einstein Quarter finalists
2481 - Roboteers - Tesla Quarter finalists (Ranked 1st)
1756 - Argos - Newton Finalists
4143 - MARS/WARS - Curie ranked 10th, but didn't play in playoffs ??? anyone know what happened? I can't find any information
2451 - PWNAGE - Galileo Quarter Finalists

Did I miss anyone?

4183
842
2478

New York:
1) 5254- Finalist at both upstate NY events, and the only robot in New York capable of making 3 stacks of 6 in a match.

2) 340- Winner at Tech Valley and Finalist at Finger lakes, the robot consistently made stacks of 5 from the human player station and could cap them to boot. They also had some of the best can grabbers in the state, other than perhaps 329's.

3) 263- The Sachem Aftershock won South Florida, and then did well at both of their New York events making 2-2.5 stacks of 6 in a match

4) 1126- Arguably the best New York team to not make champs, 1126 didn't meet expectations at their first event, but came in strong at Finger Lakes, making 2-2.5 stacks in a match fairly consistently with their unique design.

5) 1511 or 3015-
1511 was a decent robot at their regionals, making shorter stacks and grabbing cans from the middle, but they really picked it up at champs, making 1.5-2 stacks/match from the feeder station throughout qualifications and getting picked as a backup bot in their division.
3015 won the Finger Lakes Regional as 4039's first pick from the 7 seed. At FLR, they were making capped, shorter stacks. In their division at champs, 3015 was selected as a part of the #2 alliance's second pick, and played a few rounds making uncapped stacks from the feeder while their alliance was preparing 4522's can grabbers.

Honorable Mentions:
329 was known for their wicked fast can grabbers, which they brought to both the Long Island Regional and to Waterloo. They earned their way to champs through an EI award, and also got picked and played in their division.

1507- 1507 had the best tote stack auto in the state, hitting it multiple times in qualifications and eliminations at the Finger Lakes Regional. They could make multiple short stacks from either the feeder or landfill, and they were capable of grabbing cans from the step during teleop in a pinch.

New York had a very good year overall.

They were selected for the 8th alliance, but they played their backup robot instead, as they needed another HP stacker for eliminations and they needed 1318's can grabbers.

My top 5 for NJ:
-303
-316
-1403
-2590
-2607

For Eastern PA/DE:
-225
-365
-1218
-1640
-4954

Picking ten teams was tough. MAR was really competitive this year, great robots all around

Even better - they were actually semi-finalists!


My personal list for Indiana is:

1. 234 (IN state champions, 3 event wins all as 1st seed, 1 district CA)
2. 1024 (IN state champions, 2 event wins)
3. 135 (IN state CA, 1 event win)
4. 5188 (1 event finalist, IN state championship 3rd seed)
5. 1501 (1 event win, IN state championship finalist)

But it is really debatable, since there were so many strong teams come Indiana state championships! Other notable teams that I saw this year were 71, 1720, 1741, 5402, 1747, and I'm sure I'm missing a few more.

While I like 2607, they have the unfortunate fate of being from Pennsylvania, not NJ.

I'm pretty sure 2607 is from PA.
