I wouldn't rule out a feeding strategy too quickly. If you have two consistent shooters both working on the same side, then the balls on that side will become scarce fairly quickly. However, if you have a third robot with a nice quick pickup, that can quickly shoot balls, then they could go to the other side of the field and steal balls and shoot them over to your alliances offensive side. The other bonus to this is, not only are these balls 3 points for your alliance, but it's 3 points taken away from the other alliance (potentially).
