Really? cause I would think that the time it takes for the "scorer" robot to pick up the tubes negates the benefit.

My personal thought is that if you can build a robot that can throw a tube from your human player area to the offensive zone reliably (i.e. you are impervious to defense), you will never miss elims.
At that distance it would be better for a person to be throwing it imo.
