Nay. I've only been to one regional.

The Poofs Rool. 254 belongs on the list for sure (as long as they keep a supply of spare FPs handy...)

I know I started this really early.
I wanted to see how everyone's opinions would change throughout the competition season.

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?

I have to agree with Jason, 1126 will beat out any robot I have seen... they score fast, have a great automode, and are pretty hard to push around.

As for me:
1114 (triplet 1)
1503 (triplet 2)
71 (the BEAST) Obviously
111 Wildstang
1126 Sparx
229 Division by Zero
66 B-24 Flyers
25 Raider Robotix
68 Truck Town Thunder (good for defense, I would know...)
279 Tech Fusion (gotta have faith!)

At GLR 1680 (triplet 3) wasn't doing so hot. It may be the same robot but it wasnt dooing as good as the others.

Re: Who are your top team picks this year?

i think that canada is gonna smoke the teams for a while, until teams can get an auto mode where they will stop them in automode, ( we did beat their automode, thanks to our alliance playing D while we scored 24 points ) but that was a lucky 2 shots we won by, id have to say canada is a major threat to everyone, ill post video when i can

I'd put team #20 in there too. They were versatile and could lock on the goal and score.
