If I was fire, I would have done something like moving the ball from the centre and switching team from orange to orage (to reset position) and waiting a while or even switched to a car that the bot might not have (batmobil or smt before the challenge)

[@blaze41]

Retals did something similar by utilizing the different hitboxes between his car and the bot's

[@JorgeElCuh]

I was thinking pinching the ball off of the bot and when the bot goes for it fire wouldnt be in the exact same position needed to replicate it

[@TheHuesSciTech]

Just having the ball bounce off the bot at any point, and then completing a shot would have been enough! (As long as the shot was unique enough to not be in the bot's prerecorded library)

[@ignDart]

@@TheHuesSciTech no, because the bot can imitate the shots. and it wouldn’t have worked in this game because they are both in dominus unless fire didn’t go into the same position

[@TheHuesSciTech]

@@ignDart When the bot is replaying a shot that Fire just did, it's just performing the exact same car movements. So consider if Fire had bounced the ball off the bot, and then chased after where the ball ended up as a result of that bounce, and then scored. When the bot replays those car movements, it would hit the ball to where the bot was before, it would just roll through, and then the bot would go off chasing empty space because the ball isn't in the same place that it was when Fire was doing the shot. So it'd completely fail. So that's what I'm suggesting as a cleaner way of defeating the bot.

[@Rocket_Sledge]

@@reality_ghosted I had to go back and watch the interaction. I mean it's really hard to tell in to the moment: Was I just highlighting that the shot was so good that it had no bounce or was I saying Fire had to do it with no bounce? I can't remember honestly. In the end it's not like Fire scored a musty with a bounce after this and I didn't let him count it. That would have been a grey area and I'm sure he would have called me on it. But he failed completely. So it's a stretch to call it hypocritical. I think the main difference between what I did (assuming I called it after) and Fire did later is I was reading the shots of my list. I'm pretty sure I just forgot to say "no bounce" but it's not like I was waiting to make sure it had no bounce and then snuck the requirement in. You have to remember I know exactly what the shot was going to look like, it's pre-programmed, it can do the same shot with no bounce 20 times in a row. There was never a danger of it bouncing, so me saying it afterword wasn't trying to "change" the shot for fire. I do admit outside the context it can look that way though.
