Even a perfectly constructed full height blocking device had difficulty getting in just the right spot to deflect their shots (you had to get so close that fouls/technical fouls were just around the corner if you tried to play the blocking game). All of the elimination matches we played became a game of football - 341 and 1495 trying to escort 225 into the "end zone" while the opposition devoted 2 and sometimes all 3 robots to deny access to the feeder station. There were blocks, pins, jukes, spin moves, and even a couple of tackles as the game within the game unfolded.

What made them different than any other (tall?) full court shooter.
Do you have any video?
