Anyone bold enough to predict the meta of this year’s game? I think that the main strategy will be to score as many cubes into the goals as possible, then fight over towers in the last 30 seconds for point multipliers.

My bet is for sure on RD4Bs because of how light and reliable they are compared to scissor and cascade lifts. There might be reverse stackers too.

Hoarding cubes in the beginning into the protected zone.

Possibly steel base, aluminum rd4b/rollers/etc…

Skyrise for normal bots. And of course there shall be at least one wall/cage bot.

What do you mean by wall bots and cage bots?

“ok first match over next match will start after set up” 10 hours later “Okay we are almost done!”

Too early to be able to say. I think you’re going to see some teams hoarding cubes by placing them into their scoring zones so the other teams can’t grab them and then utilizing them to the best of their ability.

The rules do have something about that. Go to game manual and per SG3 part C and D you can’t. You do have the point that if teams are putting cubes in there it would probably be just as fast, though.

Tower takeover predictions?
