Re: What do you think of a wedge
yes, I would agree that blocking is a worthy defensive strategy - you have to be fast to be able to get infront of someone and stay there, to block their way

and you have to be fast to get to the other side of the field, and scatter their balls, or capture them for yourself

if a team is going to get in your face, they will need a bot that is able to do that, and if someone is blocking you from scoring you can try to push them out of your way

in the past the general principle has been if someone is blocking you from scoring you can get physical with them, but pushing other bots around to prevent THEM from scoring, or simply bashing them, is frowned on.
