I still stand by my positing that in elimination matches the black balls are going to make a difference.

I have a strong feeling that in the finals all the alliance will be so good that all of them will be able to get as many multiplier as possible, put up at least two big balls on top of the goal, and at least three robot in the end zone.

So I believe filling up the far goal with black balls fast is going to matters a lot in terms of getting the highest score. The winning alliance is going to win because they have one extra black ball in the goals.

So for the small balls I don't think gripper will be as effective as it looks like. There need to be some sort of conveyer system as good as last year's Wildstang's or Chief Delphi's to pour large amount of balls in. Those robots have a big chance of going into the finals...

That is if any team out there actually decided to build such robot. But somehow I doubt it. By the way, this is only one of the extreme believes I have of the game because I have no idea how the game is going to be.
