An Autonomous Win Point is awarded to any Alliance that ends the Autonomous Period with the following tasks completed, and that has not broken any rules during the Autonomous Period: At least three (3) Scored Rings of the Alliance’s color A minimum of two (2) Stakes on the Alliance’s side of the Autonomous Line with at least (1) Ring of the Alliance’s color Scored Neither Robot contacting / breaking the plane of the Starting Line At least one (1) Robot contacting the Ladder For events which qualify directly to the World Championship (e.g., Event Region Championships and Signature Events), the following tasks must be completed for an Alliance to receive an Autonomous Win Point. The standard criteria above still apply to all other events.
  • At least four (4) Scored Rings of the Alliance’s color.
  • A minimum of three (3) Stakes on the Alliance’s side of the Autonomous Line with at least one (1) Ring of the Alliance’s color Scored.
  • At least one Ring of the Alliance’s color Scored on the Alliance’s Wall Stake.
  • Neither Robot contacting / breaking the plane of the Starting Line.
  • At least one (1) Robot contacting the Ladder.
  • Significant Q&As:
  • 2077 - Neutral Wall Stakes don’t count toward the AWP
  • 2117 - The expanded AWP criteria for World-qualifying events do not apply to the VEX U or VEX AI Robotics Competitions
  • 2147 - All Scored Rings count toward the AWP criteria, regardless of where they’re Scored
  • 2248 - Contacting the Ladder with a non-functional decoration (including a license plate) doesn’t meet the AWP criterion
  • 2261 - Each Stake used to meet the 2nd criteria must include at least one Scored Ring of the Alliance’s color
  • 2325 - Transitive contact with the Ladder (e.g., with a Ring) doesn’t meet the 4th criteria
  • 2327 - For the 2nd criteria, Mobile Goals cannot be overhanging the Autonomous Line
  • 2332 - It doesn’t matter which Alliance/Robot completes these tasks, just that they’re completed
  • 2364 - Contacting the Ladder with any functional Robot part (not decoration) meets the 4th criteria
