To be quite honest I don't understand why everyone is talking about them like they were some kind of game breaker.
If we are talking about 2169 in 2013, I'd argue more for 2052 in 2013. They were one of the most accurate cylers ever, could switch to full court shooting in a matter of seconds and shoot quickly, and had a quick 10 pt hang. Highly underrated robot that year.

But I agree with the overall consensus that 469 was the most effective bot in 2013.
