Then we get back to the robot that can carry 2 other robots to the top of the pyramid. It would have a flat top with a pull up ramp. It would have a fold out 2 stage corner climber (like 1334) with a shooter that folds up and down (like 3940). It could shoot 3 disks in autonomous, make 3 cycles and finally triple climb and dump.
At a regional it could score 164 points with 2 plowies(box bots). It shoots 3 off in auto (18), 3 cycles in teleop (36) and finally triple climb and dumps (30 x 3 + 20 = 110).
At iri we get paired with a robot that has a center line auto and one that has a seven disk auto. Now we have a 90 point auto mode. In teleop all 3 cycle and because two robots have ground intake they pick up the misses for 135 points. At last the carrier robot climbs with the colored disks and 2 other robots for 110 points. In total the alliance makes 335 points.
Now your saying 335 points is great but it is close to impossible. Lets say the alliance misses 3 disks in auto and makes 40 instead of 45 disks in teleop. That's more reasonable. The alliance still scores 168 and the world high score without penalties was 167.
Also you have one of the most memorable robots in the history of first and can claim the title of the Ultimate Ascent.

I have significant doubts any robot built to the specifications of Ultimate Ascent could achieve this task.
And especially not one built(mostly) in a 6-week build season.
