If you have a low robot linear shooter, that will definitely present some problems as we saw this past week at some events. Everyone should have seen that coming though.

Some people are stubborn, and just think they can somehow just outdrive their way to victory.

Even if you can shoot over the 4.5 foot tall opaque blocker (still legal) many teams will still have to deal with the tall robot blocking their low camera/vision tracking systems if they are mounted low.
