I would not be so quick to rule out feeder-fueled bots. This game is a different animal than Logomotion or Lunacy.
The restrictions this year on entering game pieces changes that dynamic. Because frisbees cannot be thrown until last 30 seconds (when pyramid climbing likely reduces frisbee demand), the only remaining frisbees (excluding feeder frisbees) are the 28 initially on the field. Splitting this amount between two alliances, and assuming 50% are made, leaves 7 frisbees per alliance on the turf for robots to collect. Clearly, some of the remaining 90 white disks will need to be fed through feeder slots.
-Not to mention, frisbees may end up upside down or otherwise inaccessible
