It depends on a lot of variables. Most important is how good you and your alliance partners are. When The GreenHorns and 'Snow Problem played a few matches together we found that 4 totes seemed to be the most efficient to stack for our particular robots. We both have what I would call lower-middle tier robots you would find at a competiton. That is to say, it's doubtful that we would make it to the Playoffs at a large event. If the functionality of the three robots is pretty low I would make stacks of 3. If it's pretty high I would make stacks of 5. Stacks of 6 with a recycling bin just gets dangerous IMHO.
