Re: What are the most desirable attributes top seed teams are looking for in a robot?
I'll bet a lot of alliances that include a efficient high goal shooter would be interested in a fuel delivery robot as 2nd pick whose job, along with climbing and maybe delivering a gear, was to shuttle back and forth delivering fuel to a high goal shooter parked at the boiler.

The idea is to have it deliver balls at the same height as the side bins. It would be a good skill set for a team with limited resources.
