However, I believe this is a year were OPR is going to be a much more accurate metric than in previous years. Because there is only one game piece for most of the game, many robot's contributions will be hard to accurately fit into concrete quantitative fields like in the last two years.

A good scouting system should be able to supplement the OPR calculations. However, we haven't figured out how to do that yet.

I was actually thinking that OPR will not be good this year. When you think of last year, each team contributed roughly the same amount of points each round regardless of who their partners were. This year you won't contribute the same amount of points each round, I think that average match score will be just as accurate as OPR this year. I could be completely wrong though.
