Mecanums naturally take more programming, so it takes away from developing a perfect autonomous. I think we may very well see a veteran mecanum( a team that has had mecanum since 09) but unlikely for a rookie mecanum (a team that hasn't done mecanum since 09)
This.

The Breakaway on Einstein was intense. Seeing the robots score 2-5 balls in autonomous was absolutely amazing. That few point lead some teams got in autonomous did set the outcome of the game.

I still think that hanging wasn't worth enough points, though. Considering not many teams actually managed to successfully do it.
