I know Lake Superior was a week 2 event, but I found that at that regional pushing defense was unbeatable because if a strong pushing bot got between the opposite alliance ball and the opposite alliance robot then they could just sit there pushing the other teams away from the ball. I also saw that pushing defense could disrupt shooting. In one instance I saw a team push another team that was just about to score back to the other end of the field before the offense bot was able to maneuver around the defending bot.
