Re: Why does everyone hate this game so much?

After our 2nd event where we were easily one of the top 5 offensive-style robots, I'm mixed about this game. If your partners are bad - literally won't push the ball right in front of their robot - your match is toast. The main offensive robot will get double-teamed by defenders, effectively making the match won or lost by autonomous & defense.

It's also quite the p.i.t.a. when teams who are pretty good have different philosophies on how the game is "supposed" to be played (triple-assist vs double-assist+defender) when either is a viable option against the right opponents.

All in all ref'ing was much better in Week 6.
