Your opponents happen to be 3 decent shooters, who are 100% in auto and 80% otherwise, and all happen to be high-goal robots. One has floor pickup.
Auto: 9*6=54, plus another 2*6 (pyramid discs) is 66. Let's say they don't get the last pair of discs.
That's only 14 points to make up. Now admittedly, you have two partners who will be in operation, probably hitting their 3 apiece (and stretching the lead out to 50 in the process). But, that means that all your opponents need is a single robot who can make 4-5 trips (and/or pick up misses) and hang for 10 while the other two play defense on your partners, while you spend the entire match in your climb and dump.
The odds aren't exactly in your favor, even now. Now if you had a much faster climb and dump, and so could play D, you've got a chance.
