WHAT are some of the LESS obvious advantages to being Low-Bar Challenged in FIRST Stronghold?
–Michael Blake
We are a low bar (and discovered this was also most defenses 
) challenged robot, and we scored 4 high goals in a qualifying match, and I can’t remember how many we scored in our second quarterfinal match, 4 or 5, but we still got picked 8th overall!
Just an update for the low bar challenged group. How have you been doing so far?
2502 won northern lights. We did 7 or 8 cycles during our first quarter finals match, and did 6 for every other elimination match.
So is team 2944!
(Had to quote because the team numbers were too close for me not to lol)
Team 217 chiming in to join this group! We have been having some great success with a tall bot!
We were 2nd overall pick at the Buckeye Regional (but unfortunately our RoboRio became extremely damaged during our second quarterfinal match). We did manage to score (I believe) 7 high goals in one match! We also scored 70 points individually in another!
Go #TeamTall!
Played with 254, trust me they have no trouble with it, nore did 1678 that giant bot flattens quite well
We played our first event in St Joe and the low bar thing wasn’t an issue. 95% of the robots were low bar. But we were a tall robot that was blind, none of our cameras worked until day 2. We got one working for 1/2 of a match, but then the CF broke the lens out of our camera.
The 2nd day though… both cameras working, so we could shoot finally. We made 7 shots in 1 matches and two of the highest scores during quals were from us and our alliance partners.
We only missed 2 shots on that 2nd day. One went straight through from one side to the other and the other one was just rushed. One of the shots even had a robot slam into us as we were shooting breaking one of our arms off (causing us a foul) but we made the shot. 
Being tall is nice. We have our climb done except for some minor testing and look forward to unleashing the “Swiss Army Beast” at Lansing.
