I agree it's useless against teams that shoot high goal from anywhere else than the batter
Do not forget that was a week 1 competition. At this point most winning alliances score mostly high goals.

What scares me about something like this is, it is actually worse then a kitbot in a high goal scenario. This thing could not defend for the life of it and, it will end up wasting the single robot in the courtyard rule being I do not even think this thing could climb over the secret passage lip.

Its a cool idea but I do not see it being practical, or useful after further examination.
