Re: Our answer to the long range shooter
No one strategy is ultimately perfect. Full court shooters for example, they can be blocked, now there are many ways to counter act this as well, the full court shooter can simply cause penalties upon penalties to the other team (My team was able to do this to a team in our semi-final and ultimately had them cause 46 points in penalties) or they can have a short blocker in front of them to clear a lane for the shots, or many others which shall not be said.

I may be a bit bias because my team's robot IS a full court shooter, but it seems as though their is a negative tendency towards full court shooters and that they are a "useless strategy" but I feel that people are too quick to not explore other options in terms of strategy that could benefit them in the long run.
