Lunacy was a gigantic mess; human players scored more than robots, and the standard of play was terrible all the way through every competition I saw.
Aerial Assist rewards good robots and good teamwork, and has by far the most strategic depth of any game in recent memory, but suffers from inconsistent reffing and some field problems. The eliminations (at least at greater DC, and in a few of the streams I've watched) have a very high standard of play and are a blast to watch.
The two aren't even remotely comparable.

Hooray for broad-brush, unjustified, insulting generalizations. This kind of attitude is not going to win you any friends outside of the insular bubble here on CD. I hope you don't interact with other teams this way.
(As it so happens, I'm a drive coach, and I filled out the survery).
