Re: Best striker
I'll put in another bid for 20. Swerve drive combined with improved possession and a smart kicker that lofted over most short defenders spelled trouble. I was going to suggest one of the robots on my alliance add a big hunk of lexan to the top of their robot solely to beat team 20 if we advanced to the semifinals.
Though keep in mind I've seen so few robots in person I can't really be a fair judge.

Pro safety tip: put a string through coil springs that is tied off securely on the robot frame. This will help prevent the spring from jumping out and killing an inspector if it snaps. - Ninja_Bait [more]
