Basically Canada forecast

[basicallyCanada]

Welcome to basicallyCanada, where we’ll be looking at where the Canadian wannabes (AKA Minnesota teams) stack up in their divisions.

Most Canadian list heading into Champs. (Power rankings):

1: 5172
2: 2052
3: 3130
4: 2502
5: 2175

All most Canada forecast:
5172 (Newton): 5172 looks unstoppable heading into champs, often making up to 9 unblockable outerworks shots. They are in one of the hardest division in recent history, but this MN team has what it takes to be the first MN world champion. They seeded first at Iowa and never looked back, going undefeated at the event. 5172 is the most dominant MN robot heading to champs since 2169 back in 2013. I think everyone in MN is cheering you on. Prediction: 2nd overall pick

2052 (Carson): 2052 finally ended their regional finalist streak with a win at 10k. They seeded first at 10k and never stopped until they won the event. They are a low bar robot with a very consistent auto shot. They do about 5 high goals a match, and have been very dominant this year at both their events. This is my favorite robot in MN this year. Prediction: 3rd overall pick

3130 (Tesla): pretty much 2052 with a scale, I just feel like they are slightly less consistent than 2052. That doesn’t mean they can’t go off, watch them, you won’t be disappointed. Prediction: 5th seed alliance captain

2502 (Galileo): I really had no idea where to put them, you could make a very good case for them being the 2nd best robot in MN this year when they’re working, but they were only functional for 3 matches at 10k because of gearbox issues, but 2502 is known for fixing issues midseason. They won the northern lights regional by being the best batter shooter in MN and they showed that at 10k too when they were working. If they fix these issues they could very easily be the 2nd best robot in the state. They can do 7 high goals, and a climb. They could make waves in their division if they fix their gearboxes. Prediction: 4th overall pick

2175 (Curie): The Calcs are back!!!!!!!!!!! After a poor Iowa performance, 2175 showed off their amazing improvements, seeding first and picking 3130 to join their alliance at North Star. The shop mates showed everyone why they are the some of the best teams in MN every single year by taking home another blue banner. MN FIRST is more fun when 2175 is on top of their game. Prediction: 6th seed alliance captain
