Really was a tough break for the Poofs, but I doubt they'll be too disappointed, since they still had a phenomenal season and lost to an incredible alliance of robots! I think they'll be satisfied with their 55 blue banners :)
stuck hatch panel at the start for 254, also a miss on cargo later in the match, and then 3310 not getting the triple level 3. They could have had it. Great match by all!
It was a very close match everywhere you look, but I think the Newton alliance deserved to win. Both alliances were filled to the brim with talent and it certainly was an amazing match-up!
being on the field was so surreal when i saw the blue rocket take off, because i honestly thought that 254 alliance had it when the score was shown at the end of the match. also, being a part of the 973 alliance was an amazing experience. my team (4201) is still pretty shook that we were apart of the winning alliance
3310 was probably one of the best scoring robot in Houston. but it lacks a bit of the robustness when other robot came to defense. yet in this match only 254 and 1323 had this kind of robust nesswhen facing the defence (by using turret and the swerve respectively). Looking at rhe defence bots, 5026 clearly drove better than 6986 even 6986 has better machnism. So the perfect strategy the blue side picked in this tiebreaker, plus some minor mistakes the red has made, led to the winning of this game.
Now how did Cheesy Poofs break the world record for points like 4 times. Go undefeated before Einstein and then play on Einstein and choke so incredibly hard. Im on team 4522 and we were the 8th alliance up against cheesy poofs in quarter finals and my team lost and i thought we lost to the best. but nope we lost to the second best. lol
You still did very well making it to this level of play... making the playoffs at world champs is an amazing accomplishment! The Poofs were really good in Houston, but I think Madtown was really just that much better because of their swerve driving ability and the Poofs got quite unlucky with a few slowdowns and mess-ups, as well as some failed climbs by Black Hawk. Congrats on making it as far as you did, though!
I’m from team 6986 and it was heart breaking seeing we lose with such a small score difference since it’s the first time that any Chinese teams made this far. ;-;
@@xiangxp I am fro. Team 948 and they told me that they fixed the robot also take a look at the match we played defenceman against 1619 in Turing we are the best defence bot I feel like we could have done a better job in defending
No one actually believes that the kids on The Cheesy Poofs actually designed and built any of their robots for any year in FIRST, same goes for Madtown. One day these kids will realize they didn't do the work necessary to win this competition and that their coaches and parents were the key to them winning the competition. Really sad that the kids on the team didn't get to experience the competition for themselves. FIRST is not about driving a robot. As Dean Kamen has stated FIRST is really NOT about the robots. It is about the learning journey, and unfortunately these teams coaches and parents just don't get that, and the real losers are the kids on these teams. Ultimately all they will have is a meaningless trophy, and not the experiences they should have received. Obviously, this is sarcasm. This is a copypasta from a comment on an FTC video.
No one actually believes that Edward zhang actually knows anything about robots for any year in FIRST, same goes for his mother. One day this kid will realize he didn't do what was necessary to win this competition and that the Poof's hard work were the key to them winning the competition. Really awesome that the kids on the team got to experience the competition for themselves. FIRST is not about driving a robot. As Dean Kamen has stated FIRST is really NOT about the robots. It is about the learning journey, and fortunately 254 and 1323 understands that, and the real losers are the clueless spectators, like eddie. Ultimately all they will have is an awesome trophy, and all the experiences they should have received.
Edward zhang Being on team 254, all of that is false (I know it is a quote but you putting that there means you are saying it is your own belief). We work tirelessly like every other team around the world and are thankful for being able to make it to worlds. It’s a miracle that we had even got to the finals but it’s not the winning that counts, but the experience.
@@emilianohansen9859 it is a copypasta. I was not being serious. I know that 254 is one of the few non-mentor built teams in frc and I truly respect how you guys build dominant robots year after year. I really liked your bot this year and it's too bad that you guys got unlucky in finals. Good luck next year!
