Its unfortunate. I really like this design. Most teams. however, designed around not having defense, and thus strategies that become very fragile with defense.

if you make the human feeder zones protected, I imagine it would be very difficult to play defense on a robot that stacks from there, as such a robot could spend the entire game in the protected zone.

I also feel however, that this game could be interesting for a non serious offseason where the teams can simply agree to not play defense. After all, you could still play the game by averages. Theres no point in sabotaging your opponent and having them sabotage you. Theres some coopertition for you!
