Re: The 469 auto

There are a couple of ways to beat this. The first is as one of the previous poster's team did was to try to beat them to the tunnel in the autonomous mode and harass them enough to keep from setting up.

I think another way is to put in a defender with a kicker, one that can clear the ball out of the zone. They can't score if they don't have balls being fed to them, which means the defender needs to clear the balls out of the zone.

Watching the referenced videos, there were plenty of balls that didn't go right in the goal, that could have been cleared out of the zone if the defender could kick the ball.

Also, your robot is faster than the ball. Station your robot near the end of their ball drop and chase it ball down enough to disrupt it's path to the goal. Then clear it out of the zone.
