Adjustable height was a pretty rare feature this year, but the perfect robot would definitely have it.
233.
But with a 50-pt climb somehow. I'm not exactly sure.
But if you took 233, removed their consistency issues, you'd have a 7-disc auto robot with a tall full-court shot. I'm not sure how to put a climb on it, though.
