Poll: Dumper effectiveness at Championship

The effectiveness of the herder/dumper bots at a regionals was discussed in this thread. Now it is time for the Big Show. My question to you is:

How do you think the dumper bots will fare at the Championship Event?

Will they hold their own with the Top Shooters in the FIRST World? Will they continue to be a model of consistency in 1-point scoring? Or will they yield their balls to their 3-point shooting partners?

Above I have a checklist of accomplishments. Check off which ones you think a dumper bot at Championship will achieve. And of course post why you choose what you did (because this thread will be be pretty boring if you don't ).

Note: I define a dumper bot as a bot whose primary method of scoring is in the 1 point corner goals. For example, 254 sometime scores in the corner goal, but is not a dumper bot because their primary method of scoring is the center goal.

Clarifications on poll: Some choices obviously belong together. #1 is also a top 8 seed. All Einstein Alliances were division Alliances at some point. Please make your choices consistent (don't pick options on Einstein and not in division). Options with to "score in auton, then D" and "as defensive specialist" still allow for the dumper to score some during human control mode, but primarily defense.
