Re: behind enemy lines

Whether a pile of tetras will be enough to keep the opposing alliance out of their end zone is one issue. Another issue is that this tactic is only useful if the opposing alliance actually wants to get into their end zone for that 10 point bonus. There are certain strategies that result in an alliance intetionally NOT going for their end zone at all, but doing other things. If your opponent catches on to what you are doing, they can switch to one of those ideas as a counter-strategy, and all your efforts are for naught.
