Re: Which type of offense is better?

I personally think that a team that can run around on teh field and score is better. I saw a couple of teams (832 an 222) which were amazing robots that took a lot of thinking and precise machinig and all that good stuff that turnd out to be amazing campers (i know 832 could do both, not sure about 222). But, they could still be pushed around by strong teams. I know teams went out of their way to have a bot stay back while on offense to stop the back bot (222) from gettiing on the ramp. Getting on the ramp can be pretty hard and plus, you can still be moved around.

Another thing is that getting more balls seems as if it would be more difficult with a robot that stays on the ramp. I know 222 had the human player load it while it was on the ramp. Sometimes it can be a little difficult to get the ball in from 50 feet away. And if you have to get off the ramp to pick up more balls, it gives the other alliance another chance to stop you from getting on the ramp or in your sweet spot position.
