Re: Is your team planning on throwing litter?

I think most teams will end up throwing litter by champs. Litter collectors seem to be something that's going to be a really rare capability that robots will have. Normal bots won't be able to push litter on the ground with their drive train as many think. Its just going to run them over and possibility get stuck in drive train. Especially if you have mechanum this year. Overall ~40 potential points a match will make a huge difference to your ranking. More so than a 3 tote auto technically.
