I think both have there ups on helping each other. Battlebots is a more public thing, dont get me wrong FIRST has its publicity but Battlebots gets more. When a young person sees battlebots and wants to get apart of it and then researches it and finds you either got have alot of money like your millionare (like alot of people on battelbots) or you gotta have a sponsor. Trying to find a sponsor for basicall one person is kinda hard. Trust me i was big into battlebots and looked on getting involved. Then from there FIRST takes the role and helps these kids who are interested in robots and puts that to use. FIRST does not want violence between the robots which is waht i like about FIRST. I mean anyone can put on a saw or a hammer and have a smashing robot, but FIRST takes it to the next level with adding a objective to this mission. Anyone can go out and just go hit things and smash things but it takes good minds to come up with a robot to stack boxes, pick up balls, etc etc.
