2004 comes close.
You could herd the small balls around, (and pray that your alliance had a good human player). A few tried to catch and unload them straight from the drops.
You could hang from the bar. A half-dozen robots played bar defense as their entire game. Just about everybody had some sort of bar hanger.
You could play for the doubler balls. Most robots that did this, though, also went for the small balls.
At least one world champion did all three--internal ball hopper, doubler-grabbing arms, and a fast-winching hook for the bar.
And, as a strategy nightmare... doubler beats small, hanger beats doubler, small beats hanger.
