Ad Hominem, much? Honestly, it was a prediction, and we didn't really need to get hostile about it all. If my phrasing was a little harsh, it was forewarned by the word "cynical" being present in the title.

I have had experience with arm systems. I have worked and spoken to some of the best ones. I've spent time analyzing this game. After all that, it has become my OPINION (not fact!) that shooters will be able to outscore an arm any day.

thats what this thread is about
Yes! Thanks!

The whole point of this thread was to not address the alliance factor (we all KNOW that it's an alliance that will win, why stress over it?), but in stead to address what kind of robot will lead the field (just as 25 did in 06) by taking the most wins, and being known as the most fearsome bot.
