We started human loading friday at BAE, and continued through saturday and elims. Near the start of each match, we drive up to the outpost and are loaded with 3-4 balls, in order to fill our hopper without sticking around for too long. Afterwards, we stayed to floor-loading. This worked well, as long as we used it wisely, and got away if strong dumpers or shooters came up to us from behind - in one semi, we stayed around for a second too long and got a load of moon rocks scored upon us by BUZZ. This was the only instance that this mid-field paused caused us any real vulnerability, though. Overall, I felt this strategy proved solid.
However, that is only to speak for a quick, optional and partial human load strategy, and not for dedicated human loading. What troubles or successes have teams going with no-ground pickup strategies encountered?
