Re: Launchers VS Arms

The one potential downfall of a shooter bot is it's heavy reliance on the state of the ball. These balls are going to be going through a pretty big beating on the field, and it's likely that the inflation pressure isn't going to be anywhere near a constant... i predict that a lot of shooter bots will have trouble with consistency between the matches - one ball might clear the rack when shot, but another might not be as inflated and fall short...
