As scouting time increases we will see more overall points but less ranking points

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

At the majority of events, the #1 seed will not be the team with the best W-L-T record.

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

Captures will be rare. Most teams will breach, and the one with a better auto and better scoring will win. General RP score will be 3-1.

High goals will be rare, and low goals will be more common.

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

For the first few weeks of competition, high goals will be significantly more common than low goals.

Both towers would be discarded in up to 5% of the games, including elims, until the districts champs and the championship...

OP Robotics will be 4th seed alliance captain in their division and will win Einstein after an intense division finals.

Just saw the division assignments and my gut is telling me that 1678 will have a repeat Einstein win with 971. I'm still holding out for 2056 winning their first World Championship.

EDIT: Wrote logic, meant gut. Logic says whoever comes out of the stacked Newton division will win Einstein.

Want to have it both ways...

Can't

I personally was hoping to be in the same division as 2056 so we could try our best to win with them, not against them.

I felt like I made a million predictions there... That's how insane the competition will be. Usually I can confidently make a prediction, not so much this year it seems.

P.S If you guys tone down your insane scouting maybe you won't be able to steal an incredible 3rd robot yet again, giving 2056 an opportunity to win.

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

Logic/a cursory glance says Newton is gonna win it all, so my gut tells me they won't. I do, however, think the world high score will come from this subdivision.

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

On hopper, the eliminations alliance with 2046 on it will set the division high score in the Quarterfinals and then fail to move past the Semi-finals

(this has happened twice to them so far - Auburn and DCMP)

The final match on Einstein will be decided by a clutch scale.

Re: Last call for bold predictions before competition begins!

I'm sticking with my original call that 2056 will win champs, with either 33, 2451, or maybe even 111.

The Einstein finals will be Newton vs Tesla, Newton will give them a run for their money. especially if it has 1241 and 254
