Lets see someone stack crates 22 high... How can brute force win? There are 50 points guaranteed for robots on the top platform and a brute can knock over any stack...
Are you sure? Remember that the winner alliance gets its own score plus twice the opponent’s score (check manual). So if two other robots are on top of the ramp, you get your 556 + 2*50 = 656. Maybe there is really a way to get even more QP by having a very small difference between the scores, but I don't think so.
