Re: Ideal Alliance Structure

I think one corner scorer is useful. However, I don't think that human-loading is rather time consuming compared to a bot that very efficiently picks balls up off the floor. I like two shooters, one of which might be defensive, then a seriously defensive dumper; stocky, stable, and powerful. The two shooters might have the ability to dump, but it's not at all a priority. During the kickoff broadcast, they said that "good defense is key this year," but don't they every year? One defensive robot that can also score points is sufficient to two other big scorers.
