Pinatas need to be mounted in groups to be effective, otherwise they won't give a big enough initial punch to overcome their mediocre DPM. Same goes with mags; they also need to be mounted in groups to deal significant damage, and mixing the weapon types is never a good idea. There's a word for bots with ineffective mixed weapons, and it isn't a nice or particularly pretty one.

Pinatas have low dpm and function best when exposed for no more than the few seconds needed to empty the clip, and will be a liability out in the open. Magnums require the user to be out of cover to take advantage of their high DPM but low DPS, the polar opposite of the pinata. Mixing them gives you the worst of both worlds and the benefits of neither. Either go all mag or all pinata, or don't use the bot at all. The only way that that setup might work is if you regularly get rubber banded down because of your winrate, which is definitely a possibility.
