Just a general question I was wondering...

Was last year's game easier to build a robot for? Or is this year easier?

Or are there too many factors to this question?

Just pick an answer

ps. it seems to me it's easier to build this year because the game sort of asks us to specialize in a single task and be good in that task alone (or add a secondary as well). but most of all, like Ken said somewhere below, we need not build ROBUST robots that need to withstand striking blows from intense competition. So there's a lot more room for innovation, rather than bulky protection. agree?
