I suspect this sort of climbing device will be fairly common. It's a great contingency option for higher level climbs that may not work or not have enough time to work by the end of a match.

My interest is in what, if any, influence it has on the tower. For teams going for a higher climb, the sudden impact of one of these 'bots may shake/rattle the pyramid enough to be an issue.

I guess time will tell.
