Re: Abandon Ship

Said this elsewhere, but this seems like a relevant thread.

I'm wondering how important counting your opponent's gears is going to be. If you're in elims and you KNOW your opponent needs one more gear for rotor 4 with 30 seconds left, double teaming the most likely opponent to score it is perfectly rational, even if it prevents both your bots from climbing.

Which raises the question of deception and pretending you desperately need that last gear to pull one or two bots away from climbing. Except haha, it was actually hidden on the floor of the airship the whole time....

If 4 rotors in elims is as common as a breach, this sort of thing won't make sense. If 4 rotors is as common as a capture, I think we might see a LOT of strangeness in elims.
