That right there would probably be the absolute greatest thing for this game. Human player stacks are extremely important, and if a robot can internally protect one (Stack Daddy comes to mind) the multiplyer is worth it.

It really depends on the situation. If you win EVERY TIME with 25 points, you will get picked, simply because you win. It all really depends on how you want to play the game. There simply isn't any single way to play the game, especially this year, and this is why I think the strategy for Stack Attack is the hardest yet. Stacking will only come into play during certain games (generally the ones where your opponents won't be spending much time on your side of the field).
