Re: Level 3 Point Upgrade for Champs?

At the championship, I wouldn't mind if a level 1 hang was downgraded with respect to a level 2 or level 3 hang. I feel like 10-25-40 points is a nice balance between the climbs and rewards the more difficult and more time consuming tasks.

I don't want the level 1 hang to change in points, simply because the current endgame dynamic is fascinating. What should a team do in the last 15 seconds? Should they play defense on the fast and accurate shooter to try and prevent them from scoring another 12 points, or should they go hang for a guaranteed 10? Should they try and get another 4 disks and score another 12 points, or should they get fewer disks but leave more time to hang for 10?

Also nothing is cooler than a robot hanging for 10, and then shooting their remaining disks as a buzzer beater.
