From a strategic perspective, a circular robot would be harder to block, because any typical rectangular robot would just kind of "slide" to one side in a collision (though on the flipside, this would also make them less effective as defense robots).

From what I can see in the pictures of 2836 and 4743, there seems to be a lot of unused space inside their perimeter, but their robots don't seem to do a whole lot. I don't see any shooter on 2836's bot, and 4743's just looks like a simple 1-point dumper. I think they'd be able to use more of that space if their robots had more functionality, i.e a floor pickup or a 30-point climb.

Sorry if this post sounds harsh towards these two teams. I don't intend to put your robots down, just making some observations about how you've used your internal space.
