Re: Serious question about defense No Flaming!

I'll agree that one tire on the loading zone puts blue in a bad spot if they don't immediately get out of the way at that point. However, blue would be in a bad spot anyways. Blue has 2 robots sitting and doing nothing and 1 scoring, while Red has 3 robots without anything to do. I, personally, would hate to be the blue driver in charge of winning this match by scoring. Driving against 3 bots that have nothing else to do but block you from goals makes your task all but impossible. Not to mention subjects your robot to an awful lot of pushing and shoving. And don't think that the red team wouldn't catch on quick and start doing this. The only advantage you'd have is the initial 5 seconds or so of surprise.
