Re: Raising the bar...or lowering it?

For the past two years, an alliance could gain control of all the goals/bins early in the game and cut off there opponents main source of points. This year, it will be incredibly difficult to stop your opponent from getting any balls, since they will eventually be scattered anyway. This elliminates the possibility of an alliance being left without a way to score. Throw in the fact that the bar is harder to reach then a ramp or home zone, and control stradegies become almost impossible. So disadvantaged teams (not always rookies) can't be shut out, while advanced teams have new challenges to deal with.

I love this game!
