For each Robot Skills Match, Teams are awarded a score as described in the Robot Skills Challenge Scoring section, and an optional Skills Stop Time as described in the Skills Stop Time section. Teams will be ranked based on the following tiebreakers:
- Sum of highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match score and highest Driving Skills Match score.
- Highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match score.
- Second-highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match score.
- Second-highest Driving Skills Match score.
- Highest sum of Skills Stop Times from a Team’s highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match and highest Driving Skills Match (i.e., the Matches in point 1).
- Highest Skills Stop Time from a Team’s highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match (i.e., the Match in point 2).
- Third-highest Autonomous Coding Skills Match score.
- Third-highest Driving Skills Match score.
- If a tie cannot be broken after all above criteria, then the following ordered criteria will be used to determine which Team had the “best” Autonomous Coding Skills Match:
- Number of Rings Scored
- Number of Mobile Goals Scored
- Climb Level (for VURC & VAIRC, Climb Level of the highest Robot)
- If the tie still isn’t broken, the same process in Step 9 will be applied to each Team’s best Driving Skills Match.
- If the tie still isn’t broken, events may choose to allow Teams to have one more deciding Driving Skills Match, to be ranked accordingly.
