Though if simbotics, robonauts or one of those other fantastic teams build a goalie that doesn't allow the opposing alliance to score they will obviously win.  
Only time will tell though.  |
I think you might want to re-read the rule on the blocking there is no height rule:
If a ROBOT is in contact with carpet in its GOALIE ZONE, and for only one ROBOT per ALLIANCE at a time, there is no height restriction; however, any extension or combination of extensions above 5 ft. may not extend beyond a vertical cylinder with a 6 in. diameter.
Our high goal blocker can zip up to 112 inches and can withstand the blunt force of the direct hit of the ball with out toppling over the robot. We are new to this being a rookie team .
The team just wanted to be good at one thing blocking shots.
In the hope that we were a valuable asset .
