First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

I made this bold prediction not expecting to be 100% accurate, but with so many events going on this weekend, I am starting to get curious. So far, GTCR and Waterford Event (FIM District) have a low bar capable robot as the first seed alliance captain. Can we keep track of this statistic if anyone else is interested?

I apologize in advance for not being able to give out gift cards for the fastest contributors... Maybe one day

Re: First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

We were low bar capable at Palmetto, however never once did we cross it, or actually become a height capable to do so. So technically one could argue that we were not a low bar robot.

Re: First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

Number 1 seed at Northern Lights, team 2987 is Low-bar capable
At Lake superior, I think 4009 is able to but I could be wrong

At Lake Superior, both 4009 and 359 (#1 captain and #1 pick) could go under the low bar; however, neither of us actually did in any of the elim matches. We left that up to the 3rd alliance member, 6175.

Re: First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

Team 5150 was 1st seed alliance captain at FIM Kettering #1 as a low bar robot. We were able to breach the defenses every qualification match which is what kept us on top. We had a robot specifically designed and focused around breaching the defenses.

Re: First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

3604, 1st seed at the Southfield District, was low bar capable.

After looking through the rest of this thread it looks like the only question remaining is whether team 56 (1st seed at Mt. Olive) was low bar capable.

Re: First seed alliance captain: Low Bar or not?

375 at NYC Regional was low bar capable.
1678 at Central Valley was low bar capable.
2056 at GTRE was low bar capable.

I think 3158 at Mexico City was not low bar capable...

1197 was first seed alliance captain at Los Angeles, and was not low bar capable. However, they were Sally Port capable.
