No, they re-invented it prior to their first event. They were undefeated (never lost a single match) going into their third event. They only lost a few matches all season.
What made their robot amazing was two things:
1) their driver (Nick) was incredible. (I'll have to point him to this comment since we works with me and is currently sitting about 15 feet from my desk - he'll like that).
2) Their floor pickup was flawless. If their shooter missed a shot, their pickup would immediately ingest the ball and shoot it right into the goal. Basically every ball found the goal within 2-3 seconds of them catching a goal even if they missed a shot.
