After watching the matches in San Diego, I have to say that having an autonomous mode that at least gets the balls in the alliances near zone (or scores) gives them a significant advantage in a match.
I saw a lot of matches that were 0-0 because of penalties. Don't get me wrong, a good defense can certainly prevent ball from going in, thus causing no points in the game, but penalties certainly caused a lot of 0-0 matches.
