Ball Magnets

Hi, everyone!
I am from team 230 and our team is trying to decide if we should put effort into designing a ball magnet. We were pretty sucessful without one at WPI but I saw that ball magnets were pretty useful at other competitions. I wanted to ask other teams several questions.

1) How useful are ball magnets when shooting or pushing balls into the goal?
2) What kinds of ball magnets (roller,suction,etc.) worked well?
3) How have teams done with scoring and pushing balls into the goal without a ball magnet device?

Any opinions or suggestions will be very helpful.
