Re: Is anybody talking about the low bar?

Our answer was YES, we need to be able to cross under the low bar. It's there every match, in the same location. It's ESSENTIAL for teams going after lots of boulder points (which is the only "unlimited" source of points), and still pretty important for teams playing for a sapper (focused on breaching defenses) function. I think most top 8 and first-pick alliances will fall into one or both of these two categories.

I would not be surprised if our initial configuration is more than 14-16" tall, but I absolutely expect us to have a configuration that will fit below the low bar while carrying a boulder.
