He cannot be more correct, getting to know your opponents before competitions is key. The more knowledge you have about a team (their strategies, driver style) the better chance you have of beating them.

And I also agree with the fact that some teams rush their designs in order to attend these scrimmages. IMHO (even if you do not have a working robot) it would be wise to attend for the advantage of observing how the game is played, learn more about other teams' designs, and scout out the competition.

Looking forward to the start of the competition season.

a very good point... Team Paragon didn't have a working robot to go to the Suffield Shakedown but our team still showed up... i went up to see how the game would be developed and see all the cool robots... to my surprise 90% of the teams had a robot under 18" and had Mecanum wheels... i left half way through the day to go back to the build site to work on the robot... but the funny thing is, Team Paragon won the Spirit Award and we didn't even have a robot there... good job to all teams that participated and good luck to evryone
