Championship: Which type of robot are you?

Yes, I understand your poll question.
Unfortunately what each team ACTUALLY did down on the field depended also on what their alliance partnerts could or couldn't do.
So, we ended up scoring in all of the matches when not getting beaten on by 2 or 3 at the same time, climbing up on other teams ramps when we needed to, we were the ramp when we had partners that weren't able to, and we played defense when we needed to.
What we actually did down on the field was dependent on the alliance strategy - which changed often to match the best attributes of each alliance we played with and against.

Hope this helps

Team 703's bot is a hybrid Defense/Ramp Climber/Ramp Bot and we're good at all three. Anyone who went to Detroit or West Michigan knows this too.

Team 379 is an offensive/defensive hybrid, we can score consistently and play some very tough defense. We can also climb ramps with the best of them. This is what helped us win the buckeye regional, of course, 291 and 48 were a big help as well. Thanks guys!

1124 is a hybrid robot. We're mainly a scorer + ramp climber, but we also do have strong defensive capabilities and our own double ramp. Generally we stick to the scoring and ramp climbing, though.

Scorer and ramp climber

very simple scorer putting up 4 ringers. Built extra narrow with high torque to climb most anything

ramp / defensive bot

accomplishments this year
-finalists in Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh Regional)
-champions in Cleveland (Buckeye Regional)
-semi finalists in Toronto (Greater Toronto Regional)
(would have been in the finals, but we blew a tred)

250 mostly plays defense but can score on the rack as well. We can also climb ramps well.
