Re: Best way to estimate the best defense bot

We view defense from an offensive slow down of the opposing alliance. We log all defense events that happen (blocking movement, nudging while shooting, etc.) and correlate back to the offensive team. We then display those statistics as shooting percentage and shooting percentage while defended. We also look at the cycle time from pickup to shoot, to pickup and compare defended vs. undefended. Because we logged the event who was defending we can show who caused the offense to decrease. All ties back to our real-time scouting effort.
