You can't take a robot out of a match that easily, between the pinning rule and protected zones.

one thing that may factor into that is an all time high in mechanum drives. personally i think that a good tank drive will be able to push all of the mechanums around without difficulty. thus i conclude that in in elims, where the primary feeders and things to play defense on will be kit-bots (super fast, no pushing power, cant turn well) and mechanums (not as maneuverable on the open feild as a good tank, and not as powerfull either.) thus i think that the stated strategy is only good if you have a custom setup tank, and it is early in the day Friday.
