Balancing is going to be a major deal and shooters/launchers are going to be looked at.

And one question: Anyone see any dumpers?

Happy last few days of the build.
DC wasn't webcast. At the DC scrimmage today teams were having a hard time getting on the bridge. We didn't run real matches as much as it was a free for all of who wanted to be on the field and when. Very few if any(i didn't watch the field the whole time i was there) teams went over the barrier they all focused on the bridge for field travel. Not alot of scoring happened, but a few teams did have decent shooting powers. Everyone just needs more practice they should be good to go.

This year I think, more than any year, teams who have practice bots or finished early and had time for practice before they bagged their robots, are going to be at a substantial advantage.
