I think that the obvious answer is a very strong NO - one team will not be able to dominate the playing field by themselves.

I'd even go out on a semi-unrelated limb and say that if you have a non-functional partner, you've pretty much lost the round. Two medocere robots will be able to significantly distrupt a single robot. Just have 1 robot play a little defense by pushing the opponents small balls around the side of the field, and have the other shuffle your balls into their chute, and they pretty much win the game.

This game is easy to play defense because unless you store balls internally, scoring is very easy to disrupt, by simply keeping balls in motion around the field.

Would you like to try to shuffle balls into the chutes when there's a robot whose sole job can be dedicated to make sure you don't?

I know I wouldn't!

Just a few thoughts,

Matt
