Ok people i just want to come out and say it Battle Bots SUCKS!
here is my reasoning.
1. You invest all of this time and have a really big chance that your bot will become pile of bolts. Where in first you can come to a competition with a box of bolts and other teams will pitch in and help you build a bot.
2. No matter what anyone says losing in FIRST is alot better then in BB. You get to meet all of these great people. A kid that loses in BB is sad and really does not have any emotional support like that in FIRST.
3. You dont get to meet great! people like in FIRST. I would truly trade winning the nut for the pleasure of knowing all of the wonderful people on this message board.
Some people on my team want to start a BB team but i keep telling them wait till competition and you will be blown away.
