Defense? Spy Bots?
So there hasn't been much talk about defensive robots or spy bots. So is there maybe one or two teams attempting defense or starting as a spy? Or will this be a purely offensive game?

If all goes well, we'll have autonomous routines that have us start in several locations, including Spy Bot....

Re: Defense? Spy Bots?
Something to consider, in 2013 most pool noodle blockers were not robots that were designed with defense in mind. They were just robots that realized they could effect the score differential in a match much more by blocking a full court shooter than by attempting to climb or shoot/run Frisbees themselves.
I think a interesting and very related question will be; which way will robots be able to help their alliance's score differential the most? If some of the best shooters in a competition can be blocked, you will probably see some mid to low level robots repeat history as a vital piece of a winning alliance. The answer will depend on what type of meta game emerges. |

We have both spybot and defensive options in our toolkit, but the baseline plan is to start in the neutral zone and score points, so I put neither.

Correction: I meant to say you can start with a boulder as a spy bot. |
