You can only get 10 points out of defeating defenses (5 per run, no more points after defense is defeated) per defense, so 50 points total from defenses, but your robots have to actually be able to cross the different defenses presented. If you want to equal that in boulders, you need to be able to get 10 high boulders or 25 low boulders (or a combination of the two) (and you have to be able to somehow land them in the tower, and can only have one at a time). Capturing a tower gains you another Game Point, but to get that you have to have the tower at 0 strength (8 boulders if no tech fouls occur). So I think you can pick and choose if you want to do obstacles or boulders. You are able to win (and get two Game Points) whichever path you choose.
Don't forget that the value of defeating 4/5 of defenses changes in the playoffs.
