Honestly, I believe shooters are really inconceivable because in the past few game, the targets have not been moving as crazily as they will this year. The trailers are attached to the OTHER team's robots, and obviously taking your time to line up to shoot will prove fruitless if the trailer moves.

Go back and watch 2006 a little. There were teams that could hit the goal while being hit.

The best shooters of '06 had turrets and tilts that could get into position in seconds and fire off all the balls while the robot was sitting still (think 25). Robots that could'nt shoot very fast got pushed out of position and missed most of their shots.

That year there were plenty of robots who could fire on the move, I know RUSH did it.

People may also be overlooking the ability to pin someone's robot or trailer to a wall to get a quick ball dump.

Go watch 2006 again, I can't recall the exact number but there were fewer balls that year and they COATED the field. The robots might not be racing around as fast but I think that balls will be flying all the time.
