Re: Shooter vs Dumper Trade Study

Paul is very wise, as always. Once again this is why the good teams are usually good no matter what the game is.

As far as dumper vs. shooter goes, I don't think it matters that much. The real issue is throughput. If your robot has a rapid fire, the shooter can achieve the same quick score capability as a dumper (see 217's robot).
