Most of the robots that I saw in the match were dumpers of some sort or very short range shooting (like right next to the trailer). I didn't see any effective mid/long shooters, although I only watched several matches.
based on what I saw today, i would say, if your robot is a shooter, and you cant shoot VERY-VERY quickly(near dumper speed) you better be dead accurate
