The most interesting zone 1 robot in the world.

My team is NOT going to employ this strategy. Seriously.

Last night it was brought to the idea table when we were done working on important things. That it is possible to truss shot passively from zone 1.

This robot or BOX has a 35 to 45 angle trampoline built into the frame up to a height of 5'. The human player inbounds the ball by throwing the ball directly at the trampoline. Thus arcing it IMMEDIATELY across the field and over the truss just by the ball bouncing off the said trampoline. You have 10 points right there.
