Defense. Please bring Defense back. It allows the game to be more complex and fun to watch (as said previously) but it also gives new challenges to the drivers of the robots.

Without defense, all of the robots do the same basic things. You are either a canburgalar, or a stacker. Robots either stacked totes with cans already on top at the human feeder station, or they capped stacks that other robot s had already made. I personally never saw a litter sweeper robot, it was an add-on for others. And I never saw a wall like last year to try to block noodles.

Defense will make FIRST more fun to watch, more fun to participate in, and more challenging all around.

Other: Also, with the whole breaking Champs into two events, I have 2 problems with this. 1. Why would you go North and South? Sure, it's closer to Canada and Mexico for those teams, but teams on the eastern seaboard and western seaboard have to travel about the same distance... West and East would have made more sense IMO. and 2. Now this isn't going to be a true "Champs". It'll be a Northern Champion and Southern Champion. It won't be crowning true winning alliances.
