It's easy to make bots great, it's not so easy to get them to be passable yet not preferrable.

Yeah we can make them 360 no scope, we can make them mechanical masterminds with relative ease. Getting them to be in the pocket between ok and preferably replaced by a person is tricky. Not to say there in the right place right now but it's just more a fun anecdote and part of what we aim for with our bots.
