[BRosser314]

84

Honestly, if 1662 was going (Raptor Force Engineering), them. 675 went to SVR and Davis, and they were the only bot out of the 48/39 teams that pushed US around. And we pushed 1280 and the rack at the same time.

1114
330
254
148
56
217?

...and then there are the ramps, but I see hybrid domination (because it allows three scorers). 1114 and 330 are the two best robots I've seen this year, bar none. I like 56. 254's drivers have improved, and with the ramps they are NOW a solid pick (that is, I didn't really think much of them before).

Defensively speaking, 254 isn't on that list. They're built for speed and rapid-scoring. Place a bot between them and the rack and they're done.

148 seeds, then picks 254, then steals like a 181/696/1403 for a third partner. I dare you to shut them all down. Three scorers, ramps, and (atleast) two solid drivetrains: achievable optimum.

330 definately

I have a strategy that will beat that 9 times out of ten. And I don't even need an arm.

Oh RLY?

I'm curious. Can't wait to watch.

Going with picking a alliance I would have to pick from what i ahve seen, and be partly partial towards 469, but i think 1114, 469, and maybe a 302, or 33. But then again I'm partial towards my team, and teams that friends are on, theses picks were only bots that I have seen.

The strategy that I think he is recalling to, if its the same, has won regionals and does work effectively, but I think there are goinf to be some great matches at Atlanta with highs scores, and alot of spoiling.

842 can shut down any robot ,with no red or yellow cards!! Defense baby!!!

I'm sure all of the big guns have this one plotted out already. There was no point using it at regionals.

Ah, you are all underestimating the power of an alliance. A united front we stand, a united front we fall.



Let's just say people's heads will be spinning on Einstein this year.

More cryptology after the jump.
