- Let the defense robot be Team D.
- Identify matches where Team D played targeted and strategic D for the majority of the match; let the teams defended by Team D be Teams O_1, O_2,... O_n.
- Look at the average scouted points per match of team O_k. Compare this with the points scored in the match where Team D defended O_k.
Basically, you're statistically evaluating the impact Team D had on the teams they defended. Obviously not a perfect metric, but it at least couples some numbers to the eyeball test. The eyeball test can be notoriously weak when evaluating defense.
