If you were asking about my team in specifically I would say there is a very little chance we do this. We would also as DonRotolo said, just use vision tracking to follow the other robot to block them. It is still a net negative as we would only be able to block a 15 or 20 point shot, as opposed to getting 25 points ourselves if we were to drive and make a goal in the hot zone. As a coach it is my job to think of these things to find out if they would be legal. If we are paired in quals with a robot that cannot move and can't even get the 5 "free" points for driving forward I would definitely want them positioned in front of our opponent. A little scouting will tell you the bots that must drive straight forward to shoot so you can just park where it will interfere most with them. I'm just curious who gets that last important move of their robot because it's potentially a 20 point game changer.
