(Your opponents can't cross from the neutral zone to your secret passage, that incurs penalties)

I'm very curious to see how these strategies shape up in the coming weeks, rather than in my theoretical math.
I think you may violate multiple rules ...impeding game play and forcing a team to foul..its risky to rely on that strategy.

What makes more sense is "starve and score" win/win

Not starve and keep boulders away from your scoring area
