Vex 2020-2021 Competition(unofficial)

how about a game where both sides have different tasks, so red alliance objective is to put certain objects into certain places while blue just needs to remove the objects. You have to design your robot in a way to do both tasks.

This wouldn’t work as you would find that either red or blue side wins majority of game.

Those balloons gotta be latex free though, but I don’t think that would be much of a problem.

The problem is you have to keep buying balloons after you use them… and inflate them all the time. And if you thought any previous vex games were frustrating to set up…

I noticed a trend that VEX tends to follow:
Nothing but Net - Shooting
Starstruck - Head to Head
In the Zone - Stacking
Turning Point - Shooting & Head to Head
Tower Takeover - Stacking
Because of this trend I think next year is going to be a shooting game.

I hope not. 2 shooting games in 3 years would be too much imo. Needs something people haven’t done within just 2 years.

I agree, theres only so much shooting and stacking that can be done before people get bored

I have to agree. As much as I would love another shooting game I doubt they would have them this frequently. Then again, there have only been two shooting games so we’re pretty much just making assumptions based on insufficient data

Hopefully something unique, like star struck.

we can only wait and see. 5 days away! virtual worlds, HERE WE COME!

YEE-HAW!!!

Personally, a game like starstruck would be really cool.

supposedly, according to a four year rotation of a wall game pattern, this year SHOULD be something like that. but like i said, i guess we’ll wait and see.

who really knows. there might be a mix like TP or straight one design.

honestly, im hoping it is like TP because of the game diversity.

and something that doesn’t have a single robot meta.

TP has varieties like different shooters or no shooters/ flip or no flip. it was interesting

I don’t really see a trend, but the game is usually one of these:

Solid scoring
Back and forth
Both solid scoring and back and forth

I’m expecting a solid scoring game, since we have just seen a ā€œboth solid scoring and back and forthā€ in TT, and plain ā€œback and forthā€ in TP. Plus, it would be the first solid scoring game using V5.

Frisbee Frenzy

All I hope for is a precision based game, where driving will be just as important as the bot.

That requires good driving, alex
