Re: Value of defense

While defense is risky, I would expect that when elims come around, teams will have enough scouting information to have a strategy where they may want to slow down the opposition if they are able to get a decent lead during the Autonomous period.

Since the mysterious force known as Murphy's Law happens, we want our drivers to know how to play defense in case something goes wrong. Scoring is what we are building the robot to do and our strategy to plan for but stuff happens!


I'm really looking forward to seeing the game strategies evolve this season.
