At MSC we saw many matches in which towers were fully or over weakened, but not captured because one robot failed to challenge. Capture rate 58%, challenge rate 72%.

I expect the importance of capture RPs for seeding will increase the incentive to shoot more and defend less.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
