Both shooters and arms have the same amount of power available. If it is employed effectively, it should not matter whether the power is used for an arm or shooter, both should be able to score at about the same pace.

The wise alliance will make good use of all its members in spite of any limitations they might have. Just be honest about what those limitations are. This game also has more potential for team action than some previous games. Be a good team player, do your best, and the rest will take care of itself.

My team is often on the picking end. There have been times that we have NOT picked high performing robots because we had trouble interfacing with the team and there was a slightly less capable but more co-operative alternative. Playing well with others counts too
