Re: Shooter vs Dumper Trade Study
The robot is your tool, and you built your tool. I dont care if you built a 200 function swiss army knife if you cant use it to its strengths it is no better than a simple butter knife. Paul is right.

The Key to this game is making the other alliance play to your strengths, If you have an ace human player, pin a robot in his corner and make his job easier, and get him as many balls as possible. If you have a 40 ball dumper have the kitbot with bumpers pin for you. If the other alliance has a 20 foot accurate shooter, position yourself in front of it. so it shoos into the side of your robot. The other team has a awesome dumper pin it, or dance face to face with it, it cant score if it is only in front of your trailer. MAKE THE OPPOSITION PLAY TO YOUR LIKING.
