I tend to agree..those week 0 events were 5 minutes not 2:15 I don't see those 4 RC's having a huge effect offensively due to the time it takes to stack. only real offensive advantage I see is placement near scoring platform but that is somewhat negated by the cans likely being on their side and creating more clutter.

Two totes and bin = 12 lets say 6 of those ....that's 72 points can be trumped by two 6-stacks (bin+ noodle) or Cooperation and say a couple stacks some with singe or double bins.

its a strategy but also that's 6 scoring item in 135 seconds or 22.5 seconds per scoring stack... consistently I don't see these stacks being created in 22.5 seconds.

Would like to be proven wrong. Awesome to see this though and negating those RC's from other alliance is great...so from the defensive standpoint 4 RC auto is huge...in denying the possibility from the other alliance

Lots of robots will likely have long arms to grab single RC's off walls...4 at a time is much better

1678 is built for Einstein hope to see that team there.. those 4 RC's will be the definite difference...since cooperative is out the door. Most awesome to see all 4 handled..amazing.
