I was thinking that just the opposite may happen. A bomber needs fighter escorts. A shooter may still be able to get shots off while following an allied dumper and may be able to deter opponents from trying to dump while your dumper is dumping. If your cannon doesn't quite do the job of deterring, a well placed ram should accomplish the task.
A full dump from a loaded robot like 100, 148 or 254 will only take a few seconds, but will go along way towards deciding a match if it can be pulled off. If a shooter can perfect the art of scoring rocks while aiding one of these power dumpers it may make quite the formidable alliance.
