Re: UpsideDown Frisbees

I would think that if I had two strong shooters on my alliance, I would want at least want 1 floor picker to balance the alliance. Even if my two shooters are both fairly accurate, there will still be a good number of frisbees ending up missing, but then they will be right up next to the scoring wall. I would think it would be a useful robot that could pick up those missed shots and dump or lob them into the goals, even if it was just the first or second goals. I think the key will be knowing what to scout for in your alliance. Not every robot needs to floor pick, but I would venture a guess that an alliance without a floor picker will struggle in eliminations.
