Frankly I don't get the obsession with pushing matches that people seem to have. This year we ignored "pushing match" scenarios and went for speed and maneuverability. Even though we seeded lower than the last two years at both our tournaments, I'd still say that our robot at North Star was probably the best the team has ever produced.
Agreed.

Although, once you start getting 2v1'd and it becomes very difficult to maneuver through two bots zoning you out, sometimes it's helpful to be able to just push through towards the goal.
