That's what I like to hear Andy, someone who isn't afraid of going for big scores in qualification matches. As I posted in my Chicago update, once the Technokats grab both goals and start climbing up the bridge, you can put it in the book as balanced. Truly amazing.
I agree that the safe (and boring) strategy of just running all 4 bots to the endzone and hitting the button won't get you far. You won't have enough points to be in the top 4, and you won't impress anyone with that strategy, so you probably won't get picked. You'll probably need an average in the high 200s or low 300s to be in the top 4. You'll need to go for the 400-600 point strategy every time, knowing that you'll fail almost half the time, either to your failures or you partners'.
People don't understand how easy a 400 point match is. All it takes is a goal full of SB, the other goal with a BB, both goals balanced, 3 endzone bots, and all done in

And I will most definitely never forget watching this bald, brown thin wisp of a human being charging up to us across the sidelines after the semifinals ended waving his hands and shouting "New Strategy!!!!!! New Strategy!!!!!!" as he rallied the troops for our Finals push.
