However, an alliance is more likely to have 3 solid climbers than 3 good shooters. 3 climbers will score 120 points before any baskets. If a bot can climb to 20 points, they can get 30 points, so the real option is 10 points for climbing. So an all shooting alliance would have to score 90 points and hold the other alliance scoreless.
