Make a red and blue alliance then you can have the concept for the 20xx game! Then I can finally just say "yes. The robots fight each other" instead of explaining the game and what FIRST is about...even though the latter us the cooler, more fun option

How is this any different than Lunacy in 2009, when robots were bumping into each other and launching orbit balls into their trailers at forces that you probably wouldn't want head-on without protection?

Seems legit to me. To steal from another sport, let the boys have at it.
