A lot of people were thinking it, but most feared it illegal. Very curious to see how this plays out.

Awesome robot though, I love the accuracy.

I am 100% convinced this should be legal and can(has) be done without meeting the colloquial definitions of grasp, grab, or grapple, but the GDC's inane refusal to be clear about what they intend to allow makes it very risky to travel down this path with confidence.

The rest of the robot is pretty sweet too. Will there be a Dukes of Hazzard horn for when you go over the bridge?

In my mind this is exactly how grappling hooks work, I had thought of this and gave up on using it when I realized I couldn't hold ground in an argument that it was not "grasping grappling or attaching".

Instead I chose a completely legal by the rules route and had that flip on me....

easiest way to end this:

How do grappling hooks work? and how is this any different than that
