I would estimate maybe 0-2 per event the first few weeks. Certainly by the end of the season I think we'll be seeing them, but early on I'd be it to be pretty uncommon. In my experience, people (and especially CD) overestimate how much teams will be capable of.

I do hope I'm wrong though, because seeing lots of robots with the ability to shoot balls super fast and accurate, both in teleop and auto, would be very cool to see early in the season. I expect to have to wait a little longer than two weeks for that, though.
