Re: Why the low Gear love

One thing I think a lot of people overlook is how much the first rotor doesn't matter unless it is done in autonomous. If everyone gets the first rotor free, that means no one really got it free. It artificially raises everyone's score by 40 points. That being said, getting all four rotors will be critical in playoffs because of the huge point swing bonus. If at least two alliances can do that though, it's going to come down to everything else.
