If you have 3 robots that have a more than reasonable chance of tripping and are decent at ball collecting would it be advantageous to collect 15 of the balls before going to triple so the other alliance can't put up big points on you while your trying?
Of course, the same strategy could be played by those expecting an opposing triple, preserving ammo for late in the match for that final scoring + double push.

A lot probably depends on who wins hybrid mode.
