Re: What's your plan for Autonomous?
In scouting teams, we note whether the bot moves to the autozone, and whether it can bring an RC with it. A Bot/RC set is worth 12 points.

If I had a choice between Bot A and Bot B during picking, and they were identical, except for Autonomous, I'd pick the bot that can help the alliance get the additional 12 points. In week 1, that would have made the difference in helping our alliance advance to the 2nd round of eliminations. We still would have failed miserably against the top 2 alliances.
