Re: Thoughts on Ri3D and BuildBlitz

So I ask the final time,

What would you like to see Ri3D and BB do to improve the experience for your team?
This is a little unfair for you to state. You came into this thread looking for people to agree with you, and are unwilling to reconsider your viewpoint.

Many people believe what they (ri3d, buildblitz) did was great, and that tapering it down or doing less would not be good for their team (and other teams).

I'm in that camp. Build Blitz, etc. won't make good teams better, but it will improve the overall level of competition.

Many teams still show up with just drives, if just a handful of these teams per event blatantly copy a ri3d without learning anything, but in turn have a great season and are inspired, that's great. Next season they will likely be more motivated to do better, learn more, etc... Missing elims and going 2-7 after being asked to play defense every match certainly isn't likely to inspire them to learn and grow.

Start with copying, move on to innovating.
