Percentage of EFFECTIVE Limbo Robots

[Peyton Yeung]

I'm interested to see what a robot does if it can't cross a defense or go under the low bar.

Wait for a partner to open the Group C Defense, or focus on defense in its own courtyard (or at one other point...). Could also play shuttle, dropping off boulders for partners in the Neutral Zone, but that's a risky business.

If I had that bot, I would want to start in the spy position. That way, I could get 5 points for challenging, have access to boulders and goals, and be able to open drawbridges and sally ports.

Being a really good rebounder/shooter that can hang would seem to be an effective robot in many matches. Especially with the small upper goal I expect a lot of missed shots in qualifying matches. I think their value would decrease as Saturday goes on however.
