IN District Championship

[BigBen]

My order of high goal shooters, had to put the consistent auto high on top:

1501 - Can hit from multiple area of courtyard with turret, even hitting shots while under strong defense
1747 - Ridiculous hard straight shot, no problem from outer works
234 - When dialed in, they are really good at hitting high, was consistent shot in last competition
1024 - Most consistent shot in teleop with the photon cannon aim from outer works, but must wait for boulder to settle, expect them to have either auto and/or ball control issue solved
4982 - Really consistent shot, but must go up by batter to be consistent
868 - Really improved in Queen City, solid robot, but like 4982 seems to need to be middle courtyard for shot
135 - 461 - 1720 - 1741 - 4103 - All hitting good high shots, maybe not as fast or consistent as the ones above, but have had a lot of time to improve. Crazy to say that any of these are "bottom of list" as they are all strong robots with the possibility to lead a winning alliance.

Of course then you need to also include the strong non-high goal scoring, defense specialist, low goal teams of 71, 3559, 5403, 1529, 1018, 3940, 3176, 3936 all equally capable of heading winning alliances.

I feel like there are so many teams that I did not mention.

When you factor in the consistency that in general the IN teams had with handling defenses, the fact that a number of teams had climbing as the one thing planned between their last competition and the IN District Championship, three weeks to engineer solutions (of course only 2 for 868 ), I cannot wait to see the level of competition and the percentage of breaches and captures.

All I can say is this is going to be an awesome competition to watch.

Back on topic, here are my predictions:

The finals matches will feature 1024-1747-3559 v 868-1501-3487. From there, flip a coin.

135 will get EI, 1747 will earn Chairman's, 6012 will receive RAS, and the ninth qualifying team will be 461.

I would love to see those finals

Indiana is really strong this year no matter how you put it. I can see Indiana getting back on Einstein this year.

Agreed, there's plenty of teams that could get there this year

I wouldn't mind this surprisingly.

I predict a three-peat of banners for 1024-1747-45.

Also- way to go Indiana for hella stepping it up this year. High scores and awesome matches have become the norm in Indiana- although a little defense this weekend could shake it up.

[Theseusgoats]

Granted there hasn't been that much effective defense played, teams like 1501, 1024, and 4982 have showed that they can still score high while defense is being played.

Plus, I don't see 45 lasting long enough for a nber one seed anymore. They have been an absolute steal both times.

Hey! Can an admin please move this to the District Competitions forum? I forgot to put it in that forum to begin with. Thanks
