I feel offensive teams will be teams that have the capacity to build great shooters, which means they know a robot of considerable height to play offense and not tip over in a terrain game is unfeasible. I would recommend rookie teams to build a small kit-bot on steroids, and a big, max height wall on one side of it. I just can't see offensive bots using that entire 5 feet to lift and shoot, and expect to go over the bump and bridge problem-free.

To those of us applying the build season philosophy of Championship Eliminations or bust, that kind of design wouldn't fly. Rookies that build small and low to the ground bots with a big wall could be attractive at some regionals.
