Our 2014 robot didn't even have an intake and we were an alliance captain that nearly won an event. To that point team 900 won the North Carolina Regional without an intake as the inbounder. Depending on how it was done, the inbounder could be a successful captain *cough secret sauce cough*. Also any time you can attain captain status you've done well regardless of the competiton. I'd argue there isn't an FRC event out there where being a captain is no big deal to the average team.
