What is the purpose of the "Endgame" phase in FRC Crescendo?

The "Endgame" phase in FRC Crescendo is designed to provide additional scoring opportunities for teams. This phase typically occurs towards the conclusion of a match, allowing teams to maximize their score through specific actions or tasks that can only be completed during this timeframe. By incorporating special scoring mechanisms in the Endgame, the game emphasizes strategic planning and execution, enabling teams to significantly impact their final scores right before the match concludes. This encourages teams to think critically about their robot's capabilities and their strategies for optimizing performance during this crucial phase.

The other options focus on aspects that are not aligned with the primary goal of the Endgame, which is about scoring rather than concluding a match, resetting for future matches, or assessing speed performance. In this way, the Endgame serves a specific purpose that is integral to the dynamics of competitive play in FRC Crescendo.
