Suffield is not a good indicator of live game as they were 5 minute matches. MORE THAN DOUBLE real game time.

Very disappointing Autonomous attempts. Wonder how many elimination matches will involve anonymous as a scoring factor.

Best I saw in 5 minutes was TWO 4+Bin+noodle and a ONE 5 stack but that was 5 minutes not 2:15.

I saw 3 in other matches cooperative stacks again in 5 minutes. Some that tried and could not reach step.

Time is going to be a huge factor ...we purposely scrimmaged using 2:15. To get used to actual speed of the game learning to be efficient. Suffield to me looked in slow mo after just coming from our scrimmage.

Noodles can definitely be a nuisance often I saw 7 on the field that's -28 points unless your alliance matches....also looks hard to accurately sweep noodle into open landfill areas.

Sort of have to have some sort of an agreement ahead of time or noodles may mess up the best laid plans of your alliance IF you don't have a counter strategy.

Almost have to approach this the way the US/USSR did with MAD.
