Ah yes, Sriram was really on fire on Saturday at Davis, he shot with really good accuracy, so good that other teams complimented him when they talked to us. On that day alone he scored 3 super cells. 2 of those were scored in the quarterfinals, you could just about say that he's the reason why we got past the quarterfinals. All empty cells were sent to him, and during the eliminations, all of our robots would attempt to lure the opposing alliance near him and trap them at the end just for him to try to score a super cell.

The Payload Specialist on 1241 was very very dynamic.
He would jump over the shield and shoot downward on the goals to get the balls in before the robots could get away. Teams started staying good and far away from him after a while.
The Payload specialist for 103, Shauna from 1511 and 188 also stick out as well as Antione for my team who got alot of compliments not only for his skill but for his smart penalty free play.

It's hard to tell over the internet, so of the 3 regionals I attended, I found 177's human player to be the best I've seen so far.

Ben from 340 was insane with super cells at FLR. Much of our elimination strategy depended on them, and he didn't disappoint.

The human player from 2638 was ridiculous. He probably scored around 50 points a game (at least 1 Super Cell per game) each time he was on the field for finals.

Team 270 had a decent Human Player, Team 271 had a pretty reliable one. Team 2161 had a beast human player. he scored a super cell form cross field and kept us in the quarter final match.

[WTBsUperCell]

Team 231's human player performed quite well at the LSR. He made 6 out of the 7 supercell's he got and the only one he missed was a desperation shot at the end of are quarterfinal's match. This year the human player can play a HUGE role in the matches.

I agree our human shooter was amazing and he revolved around our strategy and he never disapointed with supercells when it mattered, he consistently hit long range shots under pressure situations

[Andrew Schreiber]

Since not a lot of people are commenting from Michigan I will put in my two cents, this is not a comprehensive list by any means, just some ones that stick out in my mind.

1 - Incredibly Dynamic, so full of energy you can't keep the kid down.
27 - If this kid gets a super cell you best get away and even that wont save you.
397 - Not great if the target is moving but is usually good for between 7-10 in auton (paired with the auton strategy of bulldozing the opposition into her) Most comfortable in the middle seat.

Keep in mind, these are just teams I noticed, considering I watched very few matches I don't recall all the human players.

Yes, i think he is one of the few. Really good human player. We nicknamed him "Brown-Jordan" due to his great amount of skill. He really shone at rochester and GTR!
Really nice!

thanks, but i really think that 1241's human player was the best. Very smart and dynamic. He has a unique way of shooting the orbit balls, and a unique way of getting them in! Im not bad though?

Thanks for the compliments Noeen! You were amazing as well! You consistently scored many moon rocks at both FLR and GTR.
As for all the wins and competitions, you're probably having an amazing rookie year! Good Luck in Atlanta!

As for "Brown-Jordan", yes i agree with Koko's accurate description of his style. He's very dynamic, accurate and consistent. He was easily sinking 95-97% of his shots in FLR and slightly less at about 95% at GTR [Had a bad day on Friday; But significantly better on Saturday].

I would like to thank 188 for the compliments and the Best Human Shooter Award that you gave us @ FLR.

I'll have to check, however i think he won several more awards by other teams including 1511, 1547 and i believe one of the G.R.R teams..
I apologize if i missed out on any teams that gave us the Best Human Shooter Awards.

I know everyone is going to say their PS is good, but we're pretty happy with our guy. At Florida he hit 7/8 super cell shots, including 2 in one match (that won us the match) and had a pretty high percentage rate on regular moon rocks.

I remember 425's human player being pretty good, I had to start consciously staying away from him because of the shots he was making.

Also I'll put another nomination up for 103's PS, from what our scouts gave me and what I saw, his shots looked pretty darn good.
