Are side rollers dead?

Now that there is not a water game this year so we cannot use side rollers to propel our robots, does anyone have an idea for side rollers this year?

Well there are balls in this game so an intake for the balls could be siderollers

If you want, you could use them to intake balls

I think one of the teams that made it to the VEX Dome proved to everyone that intake rollers are great at anything. This year they probably aren’t dead. Ball game inherently means that a lot of teams will use rollers until they find a better, more efficient design.

Side rollers take up a lot of room and have less intake area than top rollers + funnel.
