According to G16, the use of a strategy that uses discs to aid or inhibit climbing is a technical foul (20pts). If the climbing robot is affected by this strategy, that robot's alliance gets the points for a 30 point climb

G16
TEAMS and/or ROBOTS may not employ strategies that use DISCS to either aid or inhibit a ROBOT CLIMB.

Violation: TECHNICAL FOUL. If the DISC(S) inhibits an opponent’s CLIMB attempt, the opponent ROBOT’S ALLIANCE is awarded points for a successful Level 3 CLIMB.
... So in theory, yes, it is possible to give your opponent's alliance 50pts by shooting a disc at a climbing robot.
