Game design /w surface leveling the competition?
Question to all who competed or attended Week One region events, Is this year's game design /w RFP leveling the competition so that there is not dominating robot design? Has the surface and bumper envelope restrictions resulting in scoring being dominated by HP and robots getting caught in the corner?

I've watched only a few dozen matches from DC and now OKC and I don't observe dominance from traditional powerhouse robot teams. Can anyone add to or shed new data/observation to my hypothesis?
