I'm thinking the goal handler + ball handler allience is going to be a real force at utc.

I think that everyone has seen that the two, when they work together are near impossible to beat. It's all a matter of how well the two teams work together and plan. Just as predictied, at first teams kinda looked at us like: "huh? you can pick up balls? well, ok, can you move a goal to? We want to try to get all 3". Using a ball bot to grab goals is a waste if you ask me. By the end of Q rounds we had to do very little talking because teams knew how ball handlers and goal handlers worked together best.

Not to mention balls make the game so much more fun to watch.

My prediction: Not only are match points going to reguraly break 100, ball handlers are going to be very involved in the finals. The combo of speed and ball points make ball handlers very attractive to strong goal handlers these days.

What I can't wait to see is 2 combo alliences play a match. Then you involve the fight over the 3 goals, and the fight over the balls. Very exciting I think. I have yet to see it, I hope I do.
