this year, we built a primarily offensive fenderbot with custom gearboxes geared for 16 and 6 feet per second nominally for fast ball pickup and resisting defensive play respectively. in the Denver regional, we ended up initially playing pure offense, but once we got to the semifinals and finals it turned out to be more effective to play pure defense against triple balances and high scoring teams (399 and 2996) while letting our less defensively useful but higher scoring alliance partners (1245 and 1158) focus on scoring baskets. In this case our defensive play, which was for the most part very effective consisted entirely of ramming in low gear, which we almost never used for actually scoring or preventing defense
