I bet defensive blocking robots are going to decide elimination rounds, while fast breachers are going to dominate qualifications. If what we saw at Palmetto continues, most high goal shooters will have a hard time scoring points.
It'll be interesting to see how it compares to Palmetto!

we are pumped to compete at this event for the 2nd year! Can't wait to see what the other teams have done

1511 is excited to return to a Toronto regional for the first time since the Toronto "super regional" era in 2005! It's been far too long! Good luck to all the teams

I'm super excited to see this regional. I'm especially looking forward to what my neighbors Team Dave did. They always put up a top notch robot - I wouldn't be surprised to see them coming out of this tough field with a well deserved (and long overdue) first regional win.

Why were so many teams getting yellow cards?

My bet--haven't seen the videos--would be stepping over the defenses.

You step on/over a defense, you get a yellow card. (Unless you're fishing a robot out of the defense, but that's another situation.)

3360 looked great in the matches I watched, but it was hard for even them to hit the high goal. This is a fun but tough game.

[microbuns]

Congrats 3683, 4001, and 5039! Excellent regional all around, the playoffs were super close and very exciting watch!

[Karthik]

Congratulations to Team 1511 on winning their 7th Regional Chairman's Award! I had a chance to see a video of their presentation prior to the event and I met their presenters briefly on Friday; suffice to say I was thoroughly impressed with what I saw.

2706 had a great time at our first ever regional! We enjoyed meeting so many awesome teams and playing with or against you. We were especially honoured to have been an alliance captain and to have the opportunity to work with 6009, a very promising rookie team, and 4069.

As a new community team with low/no initial resources we took to heart many of the lessons learned from more experienced FRC teams including Karthik's strategic design seminars and the general tenets of KISS: simple, efficient, focused design.

Thanks for giving us such a friendly welcome!
