Predictions Week Six: Capping Off the Season

[The other Gabe]

it's funny that they mentioned out 3 tote auto because it only worked in out last match (we made a new collector, and that gave us some trouble with that auto)

I totally read that differently.

After watching the practice matches tonight, Indy is going to be brutal. Almost every practice match tonight saw both alliances scoring triple digits.

Can confirm, Zenith does lift totes. Zenith also decided that he wasn't lifting enough on his own, so Zipline will be lifting RCs as well.

The only thing I would change would be to include 4655. I thought they were the second best HP stacker at Wisconsin, behind only 2826.


I know they were mentioned, but I really wouldn't count out 967 at North Star. I wouldn't be fooled by their 24th selection at Wisconsin. They had some consistency issues but improved significantly throughout the event and have a lot of potential, completing capped 6-stacks in several matches.

For our part, Lightning Robotics has a new trick or two (or three ) up our sleeves!

To all the other teams who'll be joining us at the Bedford District:

We're bringing our #AAAAA game, are you?

Though I haven't seen their robot this season. Keeping how well they've done the past few years. I'd add 1772 to that list.

Thanks for mentioning 4719 and we delivered. We beat our friend 2013 and won the Western Canada Regional. It was a nail biter to the end.
