Re: Poll: Picking up tubes

The only thing to stop a good hanger from putting up 9 in a match is a steady supply of tubes - or lack of floor pickup. It would take some good luck and good alliance cooperation to make this happen in a qual match, but it will happen. It will be quite common in eliminations by the end of the season. The hanger will need good floor pickup and the feeders could use it too.

Also, as the season progresses defense will subside, not increase. The more time you spend on defense, the fewer tubes your alliance is hanging. Its going to turn into a footrace to fill the grid and deploy your mini.
