997 would definitely be there to push people around with our tank tread. http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...t=49392&page=4 For so many times in Davis, we got on the side of robots and just pushed them in circles around the field. The robots couldn’t do anything. They couldn’t move away and it doesn’t count as trapping because we are moving them around.

Yeah.... those battles were hell...

First of allI want to thank the GDC for creating a game that is so 'alliance centric''.

Now to the 'best threat'

I do not believe that any single robot is a 'best threat', so I will post the alliance Type that I think will win the Championships.

1st Robot -- Defensive ramp bot. defensive autonomous. May have tube scoring ability. Very Powerful drive train (probably skid steer), easy to climb (<17 degrees, or lifting), reliable ramp.

2nd robot -- Powerful fast tube scorer with strong drivetrain (probably mechanum). Good autonomous

3rd robot -- Good tube scorer. good autonomous. Powerful drivetrain. Can play defense and offense equally well.

The key to this is flexability and the ability to choose between different strategies on the fly.

One more thing, Communication. Alliances that communicate well both before and during the match will have great success.

JMHO

Good luck all, and see you at the Championshps.

997
They have great tracks, great drivers, pusing power, and always get 30 from each side...

Watch out for 1732, the Hilltoppers. With two semi-finalist finishes they are flying under the radar but they are a definitely a threat. One, if not both, of their eliminations appearances were cut short when one of their alliance partners broke. We liked them so much we picked them second at Wisconsin. 1732 can put tubes on the lower and middle levels really well and they have a powerful drive train. They may not have had a lot of publicity without any regional victories but their robot is very solid.

And they can lift after the bell. There's more time for scoring that way.

330 definately

[Tottanka]

An alliance between 2056 and 1114 will be very dangerous and its hard for me to imagine how stron those teams will be with a good ramp\defence robot if 1114 take of their ramps and get even a better drivetrain that would just be very very dangerous...
if they get 176 i cant see anyone beating them...

A great team from israel is 1574

VCU its the awkward turtles (2108), along with 116 and 1610

team buzz are also a very got machine as always...

25, 233,330 are also amazing.
