Alliances that go for three assits potentially will struggle do to the nature that they won't be able to fluidly connect the three assits and not be able to score as rapidly. That is where a powered down kicker could be a game changer because it is able to make floor passes giving more flow instead of having to go all over the place trying to get a bouncing ball.
Why do you think a robot capable of shooting/launching/catapulting won't be able to pass on the ground?
