I see your robot as being difficult to move... but by no means impossible... suction can gain you an advantage but most of that advantage will be as said before in downforce. To really gain an advantage being pushed from the side you need to draw vacuum. Also dont underestimate suction on scratched surfaces. It will take a pretty deep scratch depending on the material the suction cups are made out of
