I was thinking about this when I was considering how teams are going to ask questions in the pit because you will want to ask them which barriers they prefer to cross...

I started to think about how important practice matches are for this game. First, alliances select the barriers they will cross so the practice is more effective, this is real-field practice on pieces you may or may not have trained with. Second, teams can scout what selections alliances make and how well it fairs before qualifications even start.

Scouting in this game is interesting because in this game, more than ever I think, you are admitting your weaknesses to your opponent if you tell them which barriers you prefer to cross and which ones you are unable or have never tried.
