Call me crazy, but there's a hidden op strategy

Hear me out here, because I think this strategy will crush in finals.

This is kind of like most of the events that First puts out. You have to go across the field and score on the other, while you are loading on the opposite side.

Now, I have read the rules thoroughly, and I think that defense is one of the best strategies that you can have in this years event.

Think about it though. Gears have a huge value to them. They make you think that shooting would be a waste of your time, practically. So why not create the ultimate gear robot and just crush everyone else and get those sweet RP?

Because, if you have a defense robot in your game, you are so screwed if you can't hold your ground.

You are allowed to hit those robots putting on those gears as much as you want (unless you pin them for more than five seconds :/) You can push them away from that pin and keep them at bay. The only saving grace they may have is the side bars, which don't protect them that much.

I think that this will be the most broken strategy, but most of my team doesn't, but we'll see at the regional competition.
