Team 469 Robot in Action. (First Robotics Cass Tech Competition)

[andrewshi1]

if you guys didn't know team 469 still has a pretty darn good shooting system

[epicpwner0]

If you block them in autonomous, they can't get in the tunnel, then you can go in the tunnel instead. You will be down a robot, but it's better than the alternative. Good teammates can more than make up for that.

[gaminglikeaboss]

These guys were fags just saying

[ausernamenonewants]

@gaminglikeaboss 469? yeah, they were douches at nationals this year, they went insane when they lost their first match

[LeeAnnWithTheCamera]

They finally got beat on Einstein last night!

-Team 100

[WGSen]

this bot is like the final boss in a video game--it wins and wins, but it is defeated in the final match!

[TheHandsFreeMethod]

Hey, whatever works, Ours competes on the 1st of April in houston, our hometown. (Team 2882) Our design is pretty epic. Gotta admit. Ours is probably going to be one of the few that will lift itself up on the bar, kick, go over the bump, under the tunnel and block. We're pumped. Is this bot coming to Houston next week?

[davidrussorules]

at mine today we had one asshole who had to do a robot that could hang ...and do that ...so he was un stoppable untill wee had one guy on ofense and 2 guys infront of the goal....thosesasshole deseve to die

[J14stack]

the best way to stop this is get momentum early and don't let balls get into their scoring zone.

[falloutboymylove]

wow thats insane O:

~ team 2669 (:

[tookie3100]

i say fuck dat cheating ass robot that bitch should jus fuckin fall apart

[lyncas]

This is fantastic. Its still possible to block but difficult

[ad3llq101]

I'm surprised 217 was never penalized. If this was the New York Regional, they would have received at least 2-3. For "possessing more than 1 ball at a time". Its the most retarded penalty ever. But New York was all over teams about the smallest thing.

[patrickpryor123]

@ad3llq101

Yeah at Cass Tech they called NOTHING!! lmao!

Even my robot committed obvious penalties and nothing was called. IDK what the refs problem was.

[ccool2ax]

@ad3llq101 217's robot could not physically posess more than one ball. The mechanism only had room for one. They could push balls forward without posessing them.

[ad3llq101]

wow this robot is insane, pure genius. As well as the autonomous mode, they calculated perfectly how long it would take to reach the tower . The only way I can see a team stopping them, is if the opposing alliance has a robot facing sideways. When autonomous mode starts they're robot moves a couple feet completely blocking off team 469. However you would basically have to remain there for the whole game, leaving you basically 1 robot short.

[ad3llq101]

Also its not like team 469 doesn't have a kicker, from what I see its very good with the capability to shoot it from the third section. Another way I see someone possibly stopping it is if the robot playing defense ignores everything and solely tries to kick the balls out of there into their section of the field.

[JP2135]

but you would need a very mobile robot with a really good and accurate kicker to play defense.

[ad3llq101]

Yes, I understand that but thats the best way I can think of stopping them. You must get rid of all the balls that feed this insane robot. It'll be tough, but i'm not sure how you will be able to stop 3 robots on the offensive side.

[JP2135]

hey what was the score after this match?

[patrickpryor123]

@JP2135

I think it was 20-3

They had a match right after they scored 26 goals, well them and 217 combined.

[JP2135]

oh my... that robot  scares me.

[Sh4d0w3244]

I'm from team 1259, this is absolutely insane. I don't believe this, what could possibly stop this besides putting two robots into the goals? That'd limit scoring insanely for both teams. Looking forward to seeing this at nationals.

[demonmuffin]

you should remove the cheating tag

[patrickpryor123]

I did bro.

[CasstechKc]

You can only do so much to stop this......
