Then 217s bot grabbed the super cell, moved in behind us and scored the super cell along with about 4 additional moon rocks into our trailer. Needless to say we had no similar maneuver and lost by about thirty points. Totally epic though.
I've seen the Thunderchickens do that maneuver before. Their payload specialist at the refueling station will roll the super cell out out of air lock and the mad clucking machine will swing by and pick it up on the fly. Then they have a great record of finding a trailer and making the super cell count

Re: Most epic supercell shot?

In one of the semifinal matches at the Silicon Valley Regional, it was coming down to the final few seconds and the opponent human player threw a super cell towards a trailer. The super cell landed just short of the trailer but right in the path of 971, who scooped it up and scored it in the trailer right as the buzzer rang. We won that match with a score of 121-10.

Re: Most epic supercell shot?

The best shot that I saw hands down was with the Bobcat Robotics (177) while we were paired with them in the Newton semifinals. Their human player made the shot at the buzzer, and the trailer was touching the opposing player station. The supercell bounced of a robot, the ground and then went in the trailer.
