Im not sure how big ramps are going to be though. In all of the finals at Midwest, not one team used ramps to the best of my knowlege, even though they had them at their disposal. Team 1000 played defense the whole time and we never even tried to climb up on their ramp. Wildstang had a ramp, but no-one ever climbed up even though they deployed it a couple of times. Two excellent tube scorers and an okay def. bot can outscore any other robots with ramps.
